Don't forget to leave that fifty cents as a tip.

I've played Pai Gow Tiles on one of those Play For Free programs and done well even though I don't understand the game at all. I've never done Pai Gow Poker on those free sites but perhaps the same thing might happen. It may be easier to win on the free sites and I sure like that nifty button you can press to start with a fresh bankroll.

Wish they would install that button in a real casino.

In real life, I have never hit a royal in Let It Ride. Won the $114,000 jackpot playing the practice game on Bovada. *sigh*

They did. you can find them under the blinking CASH sign. It's called an ATM, or DOM (Do Over Machine)

I swear I never run 1/50th as good as this in the casino.



I hit 5 aces on the Wizard's Pai Gow after only a half hour of play. In 30 years in the casino I have yet to hit it, although I have been on a table where it was hit once. Is the Wizard's game true to a real deal?

I saw a live 7-card straight flush the other day. Just happened to walk by the table maybe 10 or 15 minutes after it was dealt out. The cards were still on the table with the dealer's and three other players' hands, who were waiting for their $500 envies. I believe it was to the 8 or 9, in spades, with the Joker substituting for one of the inside cards. $99,XXX progressive, plus $10k sidebet win (had $10 up) and of course base bet win. Took actually not that long to payout, maybe another 15 minutes. Counted down the deck. Brought a fill of $1,000 and $500 chips, emptied them into the rack, and paid him out in chips. They took the tax out off the top, so the total was only $75,XXX. They gave him a rack to put the yellows and purples in. Nice, older grandfatherly type, who looked like he might have had a heart attack initially. They took his picture and he made a "shocked" face. Pretty funny. His wife was playing next to him, and said she had hit one before, for $10k only though. He was very concerned about how much to tip the dealers and I heard him whisper to his wife, "We are going to discuss how much to give them later."

You mention of course base bet win. Wouldnt be of course as it would be either a flush or straight flush with joker and 8 or 9 up depending on the hand.

wow... nice run. i like how you have both the place and the buy maxed out. should have started come betting too -- wiz offers 3-4-5 odds!

Yeah, I know. I normally don't do pass/come live, so I didn't do it here.

I did it with pass/come bets another time. I forgot that I took a screen shot of that too:

Hmmm.... This must have been before I realized that the place 6/8 had a max bet of $1,200.
