First DOLLAR ROYAL!

Yes indeedy...
Just two days ago (9/17), at MainStreetStation in Vegas...
We were staying at The Palazzo on a free offer (dunno how!) from Sun-Wed...but all of our eating/playing was done at MSS (coupons and Treasure Chest Poker!)
Sunday we hit a few quads on 25c...
Monday we started off by hitting Quad Aces for $400 at Sunset Station in the morning, on the SECOND HAND!! (ONLY HAD $10 left from SuperTimesPay)
Monday night after we ate the buffet (we had already lost $250 on $ Treasure Chest) and so I tried another $100, and WHAM, second hand in...

Took em' about 30 minutes to give me my 40 $100 bills; didn't even break it down for a tip (unless they expect a $100 tip! lol; but I gave them a $20)
I would never have guessed after playing only four months of $ sessions, I'd hit in VEGAS, of all places! (I think I may have about 20k hands of $ play under my belt)

Congratulations, TIMSPEED.

Sweet! I still remember my first royal on a 2 cent machine for $80 and thought that was awsome. Lately it seems like I'm getting them every other week. As of today, I have $269,000+ in hand pay jackpots. The tax man will like me come April.

Hmm the only royal I got was the $12.50 cent one when I bet one nickel at the bar top to kill some time.

Congrats! I think that's the only suit I haven't hit for a Royal now...hit hearts this week in Tunica for $80...meh. lol

Questions about Treasure Chest:

From what I have read on the internet, the quads payout of 125 is substituted for you picking a "Treasure Chest" that ranges 140 credits to 1199 credits. Did you play enough to get a decent sample of quads (double digits would be best)? What do you think your avg payout was? An average of 182 would make it about a 100% game.

Well, to me, its more like Bonus Poker..
The quads pay:
140, 180, 250, 400, and $1199 (or $5000; for $ play)

Congrats! I love MSS and their great Brewpub.
