Day 10
Friday December 18, 2015
This morning we started off with me getting up early and heading out to pick up the laundry we dropped off on Wednesday. I came back to the hotel and we started our day.

I earned a quick 10 points and did the swipe for the 15 days of giving. Today I won 10x on slots and 7x points on video poker.

It was time for video poker now and we played the triple/five play machines again this time around. It was tough and we dropped $200 in no time and got under $1000 in action. I don't know why I'd think otherwise!

For lunch we met up with friends Jimbo & Katy. We went to the Triple 7 Brew Pub. I got the prime rib sandwich and Dee got the fish and chips. The filet sandwich was one of my favorites here but it's no longer on the menu. My prime rib sandwich sort of sucked. The prime rib was dry and very well done. The bread was toasted on one side and mushy on the other.

After lunch Dee went to play VP with Katy and I went to the tables with Jimbo to play blackjack over at the California. The blackjack started great with the card falling like they should and I was up quickly before the cards turned. Thins got so bad I ended up dropping $700 in no time. While we were over there Jimbo got a text telling him that Dee hit a royal.

We came back to Main Street Station and joined Katy and Dee in video poker. Since the bank was full I actually played triple play on the 10 coin machines but set the machine to the slowest possible setting. I hit a fair share of quads and got almost 5k in action on $100. Dee's VP session was excellent. She played the whole time on just $200 and cashed out with some money, excluding royal. This was a pretty good session all around if you you don't factor in the royal flush Dee hit. This is more like what we're used to when playing video poker. Not the nonsense that's been going on for the last 10 days.

Jimbo and Katy left to meet up with some other friends and me and Dee got ready to get some dinner. We went to the Market Street Cafe over at the Cal. Dee had spaghetti and I had planned on getting the open turkey sandwich that's one of my long time favorites here. Oddly it's no longer on the menu. Between the filet sandwich being gone at the Triple 7 and now this, I'm not doing well with food here today. Instead I opted for the Friday special Ox Tail Stew. I've always wanted to try it and figured this would be the time. I have never had it before but I can say it's tasty. The only issue with it is it's a lot of work to eat it by the time you pull all of the meat out of the bones. Everything was good and we were back to the machines in no time.

This time around at the machines was up and down. We were hitting enough quads to keep alive but nothing too exciting. I'm ok with that though as long as we get to play without feeding in bill after bill. Dee was down almost $200 and switched to DDB for a Hail Mary. She didn't hit a quad but got dealt a straight flush that got her out of the session even. I wasn't quite so lucky but did get to play for a long time on just $100.

Next up we decided to play some single line deuces. Dee was on a downward spiral from the time she sat down. I was hovering and popped ducks for the $250 hit. From here I played about another hour or so on $30 and cashed out with a $200 win. Dee wasn't so lucky and she dropped $100.

to end the night we played a variety of penny slots for some fun but couldn't hit much of anything. A nice bonus round on one of the games got us close to even so we quit while we could.

I was getting late so we came up here to the room and watch TV for a while and then went to bed.
