    Just gonna consider this my spring fling loser post since been good haven't been to casino for about a month.

    Went to local tonight lost my ass in record time. I am so over any local even though only go 1 time a month or so. Next time I am thinking of going just going to pay that amount I was going to take and pay extra on mortgage. Will get better return anyways

    Played nickel denom Cleo for whole amount and not one bonus. Horrible.

    These locals just getting too greedy with hold percentage not even fun compared to bigger areas or Vegas where paybacks alot better

    I'm sure hope your prediction is correct. :)

    Congrats on recovering your losses. Good luck with Walking Dead 2. On the last day of my Spring Fling trip I ran into a fan, Gail from Hawaii and she told me she had won 27k on Walking Dead 2!

    One of these trips it will happen for you. :)

    I found I am a creature of habit at my local, and that contributes to my losses. I have started to mix it up more, and play games I don't normally play.
    Smaller stakes and higher bets. This last big session I had, I limited my cash in to $100 per slots. If I tripled I cashed out. If I double, I played down to my buy in, If I bonused I cashed out. Played Wonka, Wonder 4 Tower, Buffalo Gold, Quick Hits and WD2. Managed a monster session.

    I am changing things up for second half of year. Since I made Diamond ASSpiration level 1 already, I am going to hang it up, and play on wifes card for any local play I do. Would rather have her be a diamond and max out comps. Planning 3 Vegas trips to max out comp return this year, FP amounts washes out the air fare and then some. .

    Oh NO!
    Man, why went to local?
    Local joins are pure evil. I never had a winning year in local.

    I had a work related conference in Vegas last week and couldn't partake in any of the festivities but did sneak out to the Cosmo late Sunday and just could not win at anything...not a single handpay playing $5 tdb and several thousand down the drain in the matter of an hour. I tried to find ultimate aces but that seemed to have disappeared?

    I sat down at the ultimate bonus and was dealt something, two pair? Which converted into some full houses...my next hand was this

    Which was one card away from a $100k plus payout.

    It just wasn't meant to be...

    I guess we'll let you join...
    Ugh one at 12X would have been nice! That's "Ultimate X Bonus Streak". No multipliers are awarded unless you make trips or better, but you get them for multiple hands. The best part of this game is when you have future multipliers "on board" for a hand and you get a three of a kind or better for that hand, all the remaining future multipliers for that hand turn to 12Xs. That's probably what happened with your multiple 12Xs. It's a fun game if you can get a streak going and hit some 12X hands...otherwise it's a vacuum. Why does your iPhone say Bellagio when that was clearly at Cosmo? haha

    VPfanatic, seeing your results, one word comes to mind - S____. Like to say I feel your pain but only you can feel it best. Damn, that hurts. Course, sure it was heck of a rush prior to button push. Did you give any thought to assaulting the machine after? Would have crossed my mind.

    haha, I had enough of those reminders.
    Now I severely cut my local trips, and my tier with local dropped two levels.
