Went to the local today with my dad who's in town. We start off paired up on multiline, hit a few decent things and play for a while. I was up about 2k when we decided to split off. I stayed on the multiline machine and things get even better. I'm now up about 4k and decent to go for it. Pretty soon after, I actually get rewarded for being bold-



FINALLY!

Call my dad over so he can watch the draw-

Spoiler:


Just about average. Finally got a big one-

Result-


We play for hours more, and I never really dip below being 15k up. At some point I was up 17k, and I knew we needed to leave soon, so I decide to go to 70 lines. I pump about 2k in and am near my stopping point of 15k ahead when I hit a 2k jackpot. OK, let's keep going.

I probably went through almost a 45 min sequence where I'd hit a jackpot, tell myself we needed to go, stick almost all the money back in, hit another jackpot, rinse, repeat. Finally enough is enough. We're going to be late- might as well go to 80 lines for my last 1k.

And again I am rewarded for my boldness... finally got a big one twice in a day, after stepping up-

Spoiler:


Result-


SO pumped right now. I set two records today- biggest single win (40k), and biggest single daily win (55k).



Results when I got home- 55k profit, 16 tax forms, 77k in jackpot hit. I just ran completely pure today.




Working bankroll right now. Just shy of 70k.

Ladies and gents, I'm back!

Favorite restaurant when your parents are in town?
I have heard great things about the Dim Sum place in UTC but have never been.

Don't really have one, honestly. My mom makes the best Chinese food as far as I'm concerned, so going out for Chinese almost doesn't make any sense to me lol. I guess living here we tend to eat at the same places over and over, mostly out of convenience. None would qualify as favorites. Dumpling Inn on Convoy is an easy, decent go to, but of course I think my mom's pot stickers are way better.

Leon either forgot to log about $300K in losses in this thread or he legit runs in top 0.1% of all vp players. Don't try this at home boys and girls.

Certainly not from a VP standpoint, but Vegas will always be Vegas. The periodic get-togethers with friends, cabana/pool etc, can't beat that.

Plus there's the odd slot tournament here and there which I'd still like to try and bink, craps and so forth. My local has all of those but playing craps with cards, trying to do my thing while I play next to people literally betting line and don't at the same time, ugh. Seems like overall there're less of those people in Vegas.

But yeah, the last few trips have definitely been a let down when I roll in and quickly realize there's really nothing great to play.

Remember I've been busto at least twice from what I can remember. Prior to this run I went on a 60k downswong. But yeah, looking back on it I've had some sick upswong runs as well. Lots of saves in there where if things didn't work out just so I'd have been broke long ago, or gone bust 10 times instead of 2, etc.

Congrats leon.

Inspired by this thread, I played some VP during my recent solo to Vegas.

It was pretty fun.

Yup. If he had my runbad in the past year he might be in the tunnels by now.

There's no law that says you can't die while way ahead of expectation. Some people are lucky.

Thought I’d post this since it’s the go to VP thread- but I had this one last night- any idea what the odds of this happening are??

(Of course it couldn’t have been a gutshot Royal)

Assuming you are asking what the odds of two in a row are it's:
(1/47)*(1/47) or 1 in 2,209.
