So I just happened to be casino hopping this morning because I had Tringo'ed myself to death. I ran into The Tropics casino and saw a sign for the High Limit Stakes area and just had to try it. I ran into black jack tables that allowed bets of $7,500! WOW! I had no idea people really bet that much.

Anyway I found a $20 Joker Poker machine and nervously bet what I had and hit 4 of a Kind! Hehe. I about fainted as you can see from the pic below. That paid $1,700.

With my new found confidence I walked up and saw a $100 video poker machine. I closed my eyes and bet the max of $500 and WHAM! Hit another 4 of a Kind but this one paid out L$8,500! Woo Hoo! That one sent too much blood rushing to my little avie head and this time he DID pass out. :) I know that compaired to most of you here in the formus thats not a lot, but to a newbie like me that is the most money I have ever won.

I thought you would get a kick out of the snapshots I took. :)
