While dodging bullets at the MGM this weekend, I decided to sit down and use a metal Video Poker machine as a shield.
And since I was already there taking cover … why not play a few hands, right?
Well … as you can see, I got not one, but two, count ‘em TWO queens!!!
I got an even money return on that mofo! That’s right. My entire .25 bet was returned right back to me.
Oh yeah! Who’s the man now?
And yes … it was a quarter machine. That’s right, not the max-play nickels that I usually play, but a WHOLE quarter.
Of course, being that it was a quarter, I only bet one credit, but still … it was indeed a quarter machine.
Bow Down! There is a new whale in town … and his name is VegasRex!


Dude,
You are my Hero!!!! That is a huge win. Was it a hand pay?
No way, they don’t keep that kind of cash on the premesis.
It will be paid out in annual installments over the next 20 years, much like the lottery.
If I had taken the lump sum it would have been only like, 17 cents … so I obviously took the larger amount.
Again you amaze me with your mathematical genius!
I would went with the lump sum all the way.
You have saved me from a future disaster.
On a serious note, I love reading your blog. I have been to Vegas 7 times, however the last time was in 2002.
I am trying to get back there this year. On another note, I couldn’t believe the what went on during All Star weekend. I would have been pissed if I had to put up with that crap. Better yet I would have left and went to Laughlin.
