SUNDAY::
This was a really nice day and we left early as usuall and stopped for breakfast and very little traffic this morning so made good
time and pulled into Borgata valet by 9 am.
The sun was out nice and bright till we got past Allentown and then it got very cloudy and no sun at all when we hit
AC.
Went to the desk and did the paper work and then left the luggage at the bell desk and off we go to play.
I head right off to the Super Deuces quarter machine and play and nothing so move to regular deuces and nothing and then try Aces
with Faces and again nothing.
Gee, am losing my bonus slot play and getting no play even, this is not good.
Decide to try Count Money since it is early and a machine should be open and it was. So sit down and download some money and get
some play but in the end lost my money on this machine also.
Try Filthy Rich 2 and this game is going to be the death of me cause I lost about $40 bucks on this machine last trip and
never saw a bonus and this trip I lost $20 on it without a bonus and was smart enough to get out of there. That machine is so dam tight it is funny it does
not squeak when you play it.
But I would love to see how the bonus works so like a dummy I am sure I will go back and try it again on my next
trip.
Decided to head back to Super Deuces cause the deuces were on the high side. Well it is a good thing I did go back cause at 10:30
that morning I hit them for 280.00 and was glad I did cause now I know I will have money to play on .
I left there and cashed in the ticket and then went to play a few penny machines.
I like to play Jackpot 7's and that one is a dollar a spin if you want to get the bonus round. I got it and had the machine
doing pretty good but in the end it took my money.
Finally it was time to head to the bell desk to see about the room and it was ready.
Got 3601 which was a fiore suite facing the bay and part of the city and had the wind power mills which I love to watch so we were
pleased with our room.
One thing was I called down for some scrubbers (small round mitts that you use for washing instead of wash cloths). They used to
have them right in the room but for the past year if you want them you have to call down to house keeping for them.
I also asked for a Casino Player magazine.
While I waited for the stuff to arrive I unpacked and we had some lunch and then the phone rings and the gal ask if my stuff had
arrived and I said NO.
Well to make a long story short it never did arrive so guess housekeeping forgot about it and this is a first time that ever
happened.
I called the next morning and finally got what I ordered.
Rested in the room some and also read my book and then while Dan was watching the Phillie game and resting I washed up and headed
back down to play and meet up with Ed and Fran.
I am not sure what I played but did no good on whatever it was.
I finally headed over to the BBar and soon as I got in there I was able to spot Fran so headed down that way and had to really
watch where I walked cause that place is dark.
Ed and Fran are really nice and I enjoyed my talk with them. I also got to see the new impressive bar top machines and Fran did
really good on Saturday she said but that is Ed's story to tell.
I did not have a drink cause I just wanted to say Hi and move on to my playing so just visited with them for like 15 minutes or
so.
Glad I finally met up with them tho'
Then I headed off to play more penny machines and tried Open the Vault and nothing, the old jackpot party and nothing and even
tried 5 cent Triple Lucky and nothing.
Finally went back to my Super Deuces where I hit the deuces and was playing and at 4 pm I hit 5 of a kind using just one WILD for
$200 bucks so that made me very happy cause I was not doing good on any other machines that I played.
So I just stay there till it is time to meet up with Dan for dinner.
We head into the buffet and there is not many there, like maybe 2 in front of us so we get seated really fast and today I had
prime rib but I have to get mine stuck on the grill cause I think they make it way to rare but Dan thought it was just fine.
I also looked for my little potatoes with the skins on them but they had none at all this trip so guess they took them off the
menu so had mashed.
Got some beans and a salad and all my food was good.
Had some soup also.
I enjoyed the food that I had and got some sugar free cake for desert.
Back out to play and tried my super times pay 5 cent machine and nothing and tried a few others and could not make anything work
so over to the Regular Deuces I go and there was one machine open only so sat there and before I know it up pops 3 deuces so I hold them, hit deal and up
comes the 4th one so I hit for $275.00.
Cannot believe my good luck but figure this is the only game I am winning at so I stay a little longer but nothing so I leave and
head back to pennies and nothing.
Cannot seem to last anywhere so finally at 10:30 I head up to the room since all I am doing is feeding my money into the machines
.
I have a snack and read some more and then Dan comes up and he did not do good at all today so he finally called it quits
also.
MONDAY::
Up early today and we are down to the pool by 7 am.
I go outside to check on the weather and it is really nice out so we decide to take a walk after breakfast.
We hit the hot tub and then the pool and then I go to read my book some. When the papers come we get the Press and read that and
then head up to the room to shower and get ready for breakfast.
We hit the buffet and we both get a omelet. I get a garden one and Dan go's for the western.
Dan has been getting these turkey sausage to eat so finally I cave in and said I will try one and glad I did since they are really
good.
Just hearing turkey sausage used to turn me off but finally am glad I tried it.
They had the sticky buns over by the fruit so Dan got one of those for desert and we both had the strawberries.
Then off for a walk we went and it was such a perfect day to walk. We walked the path over to Harrah's and stopped at the
piers jutting out to read them and look at the birds etc.
We did not go into Harrah's cause I did not want to. At first we were going to go over and play a bit but decided to give my
play to the Borgata instead.
After our walk we head back into the casino to play.
We split up and I head off to the Super Deuces and nothing. I must have stuck $60 bucks in there and nothing.
I decide time to see what I get in Mystery Slot play so download mine and I have $150.00 this trip so I go find Dan and give him
$50 of my money so this way he got a share of it.
I got nothing playing that mystery slot dollars. I tried Deal or No Deal and Count Money, Triple Lucky and Super Times Pay and
just could not get anything going.
Bad today and finally my mystery slot money is gone and so is my own money going down so decide to heck with this and head to the
room for a rest.
I thought I am not giving them all my winnings and my own money both so a break is needed.
Read my book some and even took a nap, short one but a nap just the same.
Called Kim and forgot she was back on second shift this week so left a message that I won yesterday but loosing
today.
Changed clothes to see if my luck would change and headed back down and told Dan I would meet him at the buffet at
5:15
Try some machines and getting a little play but nothing doing so finally time to meet Dan and today there is more of a line but
moves fast and within 15 minutes we are seated.
Today is more prime rib and mashed potatoes for me and more or less the same thing I ate last evening but no soup
today.
Again the food is good tho'.
After dinner I went for a walk and stopped here and there to play a machine but just not doing good at all.
I even tried this penny Sun and Moon and never got anything going on that and not sure I even understand it all.
Finally head back over to the Regular Deuces and see it is up there again so sit down and would you believe it but I hit the darn
Deuces once again, the 3rd time this trip and this time it was up to $269.00
So really did very good this trip but it is good I was hitting them cause I was not doing good on anything else that I
played.
If I got some play and racked up a few bucks in the end I gave it back .
After this hit I go back over to the half dollar Super Deuces and finally get some play on the same machine we won on for Adrian
but just kept playing and in the end played it all back into the machine.
I kept walking around and trying different machines and even ended up playing a penny Goldfish machine and have not played this
machine in ages but lasted on there for about half a hour before I lost my money.
In the end I went back to the Super Deuces Wild and the deuces were up to over $280 so played there the last hour and a half and
finally my eyes were so tired that I could not even see right and I was tired myself and caught myself making dumb moves so that was a sign to get off the
machine and head to bed which is what I did by 1:30 and today I lost quite a bit of money.
Kept chasing those deuces to much that last hour and half
TUESDAY::
Today, nothing, just got up and packed up and Dan tried to check us out and nothing. It was all snow when he tried to get into
guest services.
I tried to check out on the phone but they were busy so was put on hold and waited and waited and nothing so hung up and down to
the desk we go to check out.
Marcey was working and she checked us out and we talked a bit and then we took off.
Just grabbed a breakfast sandwich and headed for home.
All in all it was a very good trip for me. I ended up with such a small loss that I call it even cause I lost just a few
bucks.
Dan did rotten Sunday but Monday evening he got on a good black jack table and got most of his money back but he did lose about a
hundred bucks for the trip.
So it was a good trip all the way around.
It is a good thing I had all those wins tho or I would have been in the hole big time cause I did not do good on anything else
except the Deuces Wild.
So that was our trip for this time around.
Trip home was good and no problems at all.

Hi, Geri:
Your trip report was worth the wait! Enjoyed every word of it.
My goodness the Deuces Wild were for you. I think I would have kept going back to them, too,
if I weren't doing any good on the other slots. I'll bet that was a really pleasant surprise to see the Deuces Wild to be so good to you this trip.
It sounds like you did get a lot of play time in, and then coming home a winner, is wonderful. Sounds like Dan had a good trip, too. Only out $100 for the whole trip isn't bad at all. Prime rib and mashed pot............great meal.
Thanks for the report. Glad you had fun. |

Great trip report, Geri. I'm glad you're having mashed potatoes now instead of mashed pot. You're right. We'll never let you forget your faux
pas.

Thank you folks for reading my report and
Carol:: Yes, I was thrilled the Deuces were so good to me this trip. For awhile there I could not hit the Deuces if my life depended on it and all of a sudden this trip there they were, not once, not twice but three times. I used to hit the Deuces at least once every thrip for awhile there and then they just took off and I could not hit them for a long time.

Another great trip report from you. You really did hit those Deuces, good for you! Meeting Ed and Fran must have really been fun. It's always nice to put a
face with a name. Hope one day to meet many on this board. When is the next trip? I will go tomorrow after I get my haircut at 11:30. I want to see what the
new machines on Cypress Bayou side are all about. Might be something I will like.

Will try and make a reply to my trip report here but not sure how much posting I will be able to do since I am having many problems with Yuku and right above
here where you pick the color and type etc. it is all blank for me and I can see no one's avatars or anything.
All was fine this morning and then I went to change my avatar and NOTHING, everything went wacky and it just keeps saying downloading and nothing down loads. I tried to send a message to Yuku and can't so don't know what to do except I doubt I will be on the boards much anymore unless I can get this fixed and since I cannot reach Yuku not sure I can get it fixed. Many have had problems with Yuku so I am not surprised but if you guys do not hear from me you know why.

Hope your computer is working correctly again. They can be a real pain sometimes. What is the drink in your aviator? It sure looks good. |

Your other picture was a pitcher of a reddish pink liquid, and then a nice glass of it. Looked really refreshing. |

Geri,
I could swear that I posted a reply to your TR yesterday, but maybe my years are catching up to me. I absolutely loved all the detail in the TR. Glad the deuces were working for you. |

Geri:
Yes, that's the picture, and I would love to have a glass of the lemonade with a homemade sugar cookie, please.

Thanks for the report! I'm glad the deuces were good to you. It's always nice to meet other board members so it was a
bonus to be able to meet Ed and Fran. Good luck on your next trip!
