With the background you gave us on your dad, his health and the gnarly amount of gambling he's done at the Wynn that score really couldn't happen to a better dude

That is awesome. That photo will probably cause about 100 LVL'ers to donk off their bankroll on VP during their next trip to Vegas.

Yeah, for sure. He deserves it way more than I do.

How did they pay it out? Did they bring bricks of $10K? Cashier's check? Your dad should definitely quit VP forever having been awarded this grail. Go out on a high note. Like Elway. Or Manning. Or Jordan (wait that didn't work out).

Holy ****. That's so awesome, super happy for you and your dad.

Can't say I really needed to see that pic a month before I go to Vegas myself, though.

HOLY SWEET MOTHER F**KER. I just shot my load sitting on the couch. My wife looked at me and said damn, I didn't know I was that good, I didn't have to touch you.

I was thinking about playing PLO cash games during the world series, but I'm now taking my roll to the Wynn. LOLOLOLO.

LOL, me being a mere mortal, I've put in at least a hundred hours over the years and never once got a handpay. Ordinary people lose at this game. The only reason I play it is to try to up my players card status.

If he quit now, that'd be like a crack addict giving it up after making a huge score

No way that's happening. At least he's got plenty of bullets for a while.

Is your dad a cool customer and acts like he's hit this before? Or was he going crazy, jumping up and down (at least as well as he can)?

So awesome. Congrats to leondad! (and leon). Was this on the exact same machine or was he still waiting on the payout from the previous dealt hand?

No, he's pretty cool about everything. He did whip out his phone to take pictures
