Totally OT, but I want to share!!!!

[GAIL HAYDEN]

I went to the casino (Foxwoods) Friday night. Put up the "side" bet on the 7's on the Blackjack table.
This side bet is: Put a dollar in the little round 7 circle
If the first card out is a 7 you get 3.00
If the second card out is a 7 of the same suit you get 100.00
If the second card out is a 7 of a different suit you get 50.00
If the third card out is a 7 of the same suit you get 5000.00
If the third card out is a 7 of a different suit you get 500.00.

I GOT THREE 7S OF DIAMONDS!!!!!!!

Not to shabby for a 1.00 bet.

So, Foxwoods is sending me to JAMAICA in Jan.

Gail,
That's great!! I love to hear stories of people doing well as opposed to losing it all like I usually do (but when I say losing it all I mean my whole $30 budget ). Enjoy your trip.

WOW!!!!!! Good for you, Gail!!!

When I get to work tonite, I'm going to tell the people in the Pit! That's great.

With your luck, some of that money should be for plane tickets here.....

Congratulations, Gail. Gee, I thought by the title of your post that you wanted to share your winnings.

Does this mean that you'll be flying first class instead of coach this trip?

Way cool!!!

 

[bobcat]

Very Cool! Congrats!

Awesome - I was happy last night when I won back what I had lost a few nights before on slots!!! The tribes had a dispute with the courts and they are pulling all the special table games (like 3 card poker/roulette/craps) on 6/30. I didn't even get to learn to play craps!

All I can say is WOW! Now that was a lucky "7." I'm a little jealous too. I'm very impressed that it only costed you a $1.00. Enjoy your winter trip! --Renee

Awesome Gail! It is so cool to win on a small bet! We don't go very often, but I love the casinos! My dad is a hoot in them. I once won $100 from a 25 cent bent on a nickle machine in Tahoe.

So, how much is going into your WDW fund??? Jamaica is wonderful. Honeymooned there in 1995/96. Try to local beer

Have a super trip

Nope, SWA does not have first class.

It is all going into my savings account. My trip to Disney is covered already. The savings account will pay for the trip to Jamaica. Been there twice before, LOVE the rum.

Yippie for Gail! That should be one awesome winter break

 

[candykisses]

Congratulations!!

Enjoy your trip. I've never been to a casino, it must have been very exciting. DH and I were just watching World Poker Tour from the Foxwoods, do you think it was the same place?

Yes, it was the same place. There is only one Foxwoods!!!

I was definitely an exciting event.

Thank you all very much for your well wishes and congrats.
And, to the Dis board, for your patience with this Off Topic.

The one and only time I went to Vegas, Foxwoods paid for that one. I had a 1.25 in quarters and won 580.00 the one and only time I played the slots.

BTW, tell your "pit" people that I did tip my dealer quite well ( I think 100.00 was a good tip, sin't it?). She screamed louder than I did.
