Just got back from my weekend birthday staycation. While overall it was a loss, there was still enough highs during the stay to make it entertaining. I played from Thurs night to Friday and one more time from yesterday afternoon till late last night.
I played mostly Fortune Foo this trip with the occasional Wheel of Fortune and a little bit of CC and HIV.
I think the highlight of my play is in the attached photo while playing 2c FF and was lucky because I played 4 reels and the male (BLUE) lion landed on the centre line in the last reel for a 90k credit win! Actually I managed to hit 2 more times full house lions with Fu multiplier on a 5c machine but didn't get the max payout as I was only playing 3 reels (would have hit 45-60k in those wins).
Sometimes "strange coincidences" happen. My friend who was staying at Festive checked into room 507. My gambling kaki mentioned something about 0507 and then I also heard an aunty talking about 0507 for her 4D... so during one point when I was down, I put in $50 into the Fortune Foo machine (number 0507) just behind the Wheel of Fortune Machine and had a winning streak which saw it grow to $750. Later when I was down abit again, I went back to that machine and won another $300-400. I would have gone back to that machine one more time but it was always occupied... sigh.
That machine was also "good" to me in the past. It was the first machine I tried FF on and I had a very good run on it during that "virgin" trial winning over 1k on it without realising how hard it is to get 6 or more Fus with the lions.
Managed to get another hotel voucher and will probably plan another staycation sometime in November.
In the mean time hope that everyone here HUAT BIG BIG!
