I was at Harrah's Ak-Chin with a buddy and playing some slots, I've been kinda out of VP lately since I've not had much luck. Anyway, he kept talking about wanting to play VP cause that's his game but it was crowded. Finally he talked me into it and we sat down at a pair of Ultimate X 10 cent machines. His just paid $700 mine was a loser, my third hand I held 3 Aces and ended up with 2 Natural 4 Aces playing Deuces Wild (all I play) so I was in a pretty annoyed mood. Fast forward about $60, I'm warming up, some $40 - $50 hands, numerous Straight Flushes with no pays on the multiplier.
Next thing I know I hit 2 Straight Flushes, the next hand I'm deal QH, KH, AH... I hold them, not thinking anything of it. First hand, Royal with Deuces - $120, second hand Natural Royal x12 for $4,800.

Total cash out of $5000 with $80 in play. I was over the moon. I am not sure how many times I said 'holy sh-t' but it probably wasn't enough. Perfect timing too as I have a Vegas trip planned in April and it's always nice to have a solid hit like that before a trip.

Thanks for reading.

I should also mention this is my first Royal on anything other than 50/100 Play $.1 Poker. I don't use optimum strategy since I play Deuces and often play for the Deuces instead of the Royal but this has got me thinking twice, haha.

Holy shit, that's 5 grand off of a 10 cent VP denom isn't it?

Congrats dude, damn.

Somethings wrong with this picture. Whenever I get a 12x multiplier, I can't even make three of a kind.

Haha I found myself saying both of those things, pretty next level. Definitely a once in a lifetime hit.

Saw a lady on the same bank get dealt a Straight Flush then dealt 4 Aces with the kicker, over $7000 on a $.10 denom. Ridiculous.

I love the look on a slot techs face when I hit a handpay on a nickel or dime ux. Its funny they should be used to it but still are in awe. Even more when I tip them lol

Very nice hit on a $3.00 bet.
Some people need to reimagine their thinking.

Hit another Royal at 2x on this same machine last night for $800, unfortunately for me I didn't have the restraint I did on the last one and I gave it back, hah.
