On my trip out west I had 2 banking stories that I would like to share.
The first was on a nickel Green Stamps game at Harrahs Rincon. Someone left it with 1258 stamps on it. I had to decide if it was worth going after the 10 free spins at 2400. Since I was ahead for the trip, I decided to go for it.
To make a long story short, I put in $60 and got 1,665 nickels on the 10 free spins and ended up with $85. I would rather play the penny version.
the second was with a $1 Goodtimes machine at the Peppermill 8 days later. Now I never play a dollar slot machine unless it has 8 or 9 stacks at Double or triple diamond mine. I needed to play 2 credits at a time on this machine. I was pouring $20 bills into this machine like crazy and I had gotten burned at the Rio on these quarter games in the past, so the sweat was pouring in when I had $190 into the machine. I was going to stick it out. Then it came. 2 2bars and the goodtimes X for $240. A plus.
I was not used to putting in that kind of money just for a banking machine. Fortunately I had just completed my $120 freeplay into $115 and a couple of days earlier I had collected $95 on $100 free play at Gold Dust West in Carson City. I was playing on the casinos money we had earned on last years trip.
It goes to show that you have to be lucky because I know I could have easily lost on both of those games.
