Casino

On an Alaska cruise, my GF hit a royal flush on a $.25 machine for a $2300 payout.:D That was the only time we have come out a winner. :(Does anyone have regular luck in the casino? The casino is always busy so it seem somebody should be winning! What are your casino tales?

I won $500 on a $.25 slot once but I usually lose

While waiting for the raffle ticket draw in the casino on the first night I decided to put $20 in a slot machine and hit a $600 jackpot. That paid of some excursions, drinks and a camera that got damaged. :)

My wife always ends up a winner in the Casino. On every cruise we`ve been on, the final totals have been in her favor. Sometimes the winnings are small and other times more substantial. I sit at the bar or wander the ship since I don`t gamble. When I did I always lost.

My DW won 2 years ago, but has not since. I only play a little blackjack, about even.

I have been on two cruises. On the first cruise I won $600 on a quarter machine betting only 25 cents. On my recent cruise I won $250 on a 2 cent machine and $200 on a nickel machine. I, also, won smaller amounts throughout the cruise. I always go with a limit for the day and put away my winnings.

I like playing the poker tournaments since you ar playing against other cruisers not the house.

Last year, on the Statendaam out of Osaka-Kobe, they had signs up that the casino had low table limits for the first night. I love blackjack, but when I went to the casino after our late seating dinner, people were smoking at the blackjack table.so I played video poker. To make a long story short but entertaining, I had the first royal flush of my life and won $1,000. It was a quarter machine.

I wasn't in the casino again on that trip.

We are on the Hawaii cruise in early April. Does history repeat itself?

I won $400 on a quarter slot. I immediately took the money to the front desk and put it on our bill!

I typically play craps and have always come out ahead. I play the safe bets and will come back with a little in the end. My wife plays the sucker bets and somehow always comes back a big winner.

Clearly, most of you are not gamblers, as you take the winnings and leave. I have had some luck on cruises -- once coming out $2,000 ahead by cruise end. Another time I hit a nickel poker machine for $1,500. But I don't stop. I gamble every night, and some days. I just love it.

It is nice to know that all my money is not going to the house! Glad for the winners and the others should keep trying. I do! My next hand will be the big winner:)
