Nice recovery, jpj. Doing well here at the Beau this week. Hit a couple of big ones on the million dollar Panda. Going to jump on the casino hopper today and explore Biloxi.
That's awesome! Those million dollar machines can be so great, especially compared to the "regular" ones. Of course, they can turn fast and hard, so be careful. I haven't been there in a few years and I understand it's really come back since it was so devastated. Should be fun to check out some of the other ones. Let me know what you think.
Yeah, got a little lucky with that one. It’s funny how just another couple of orbs could’ve got me all the way back to even. But I’ll definitely take this outcome when the machine is this cold.
Which casino were you played at? You understand that during the holidays, they love people like you play aggressively and so eager to win, and not afraid of losing, but in the end, they take all your money?
I don’t disagree, these machines do seem to run extremely hot and cold. But I like to book a win whenever possible…but I do know that I’m likely leaving money on the table.
That was painful but a great sortof come back. Truly unbelievable how hard it is to get a bonus. Like HOW is that even possible? Again sooo many dead spins on so many different games. Hmmm
This machine is very erratic. I’ve watched it enough now and it’s one of the more “all or nothing” machines in that room. Some of those other big hits were on this machine…and I’ve had my share of ugly loses as well.
Lightning Link slots are the absolute worst. They're worse than Buffalo. The jackpot rates are significantly less than Buffalo, Dragon Cash, etc. Avoid these slots at all cost.
I do find them to be much tighter, but can have great pays when they hit. Of course, that makes it tricker. As you said, some of those other games have much better frequency, which is definitely a more enjoyable experience.
@@josephlacarrubba8219 did you watch the end of the video? I recap the financial result and it’s clear I didn’t win…which I also say in the video as well.
I really do wish that all of us Gamblers would unite and boycott all casinos across the country. Then maybe there could be a movement to loosen up the machines again. I have people all over the country with similar results to yours. Not good. I was at Winstar today (Thursday) for my birthday and lost $2500 without a hand pay.
I would do it in a heartbeat! The problem is that an individual protest won't hit the radar...even in my "home" casino, they won't really care if I never show up again. But I do think it'll happen - the economy can't get any better and at some point it will turn, people will lose jobs or fear losing jobs, and they will vote with their feet. It will happen fast and the casinos won't see it coming. The ones who react fast will win. It's been so long since competition really mattered, but hopefully will again soon.
Your example is exactly what's wrong. People are coming to have fun, and it's just not fun to lose that much with no give and take. As much as we want to hit the big jackpots, I think we'd all trade them in for more reasonable consistent play.
@@JackpotJSlots I agree. Thanks for your viewpoint. I’ve been a “mid-scale” gambler for the last 5 years or so….I gamble in/out about $2.2M per annum. I have seen payouts go from decent to absolutely detestable. Three years ago for example, you could bet .10 denom, $25 bet and once you did hit a bonus, you would be guaranteed a jackpot hand pay period nowadays you’ll go through $3000 just to hit a bonus on that same bet and maybe win 600 $800 if you’re lucky.
@@BBQROCKSTAR178 Yep, you've hit the nail on the head. And it's clear we're all experiencing the same thing, so it's not a one-off, or just in our heads.
That machine is located in a terrible spot - near the ATM and sometimes a player kiosk. So there’s always traffic and people hang out and talk way too much. I’ve actually not played it several times because of that dynamic.
Yeah, I would’ve been better off staying home and watching tv for sure. It had me on the ropes and I at least made the comeback to not lose nearly as much. Great bonus and jackpot, just took way too long (and too much) to hit.
@JackpotJSlots yes sir you right, lucky you got them grands back. No suitcase the whole session then as soon as you bet low it will spin on you which is annoying at times but good win back! Happy new year mate
@@mrsmith9262 that's what annoys me most - people say drop the bet to try to win. But even if you get it, you will win so little at that point, it's not worth it. Just as annoying as getting briefcases and then getting nothing out of them! ...which you know happens way too often.
Wow! Lucky 🍀 last minute. That machine was 🥶best wishes next time !!!😊
I just needed to bet bigger sooner 🤣 it was a nice last minute save for sure…let’s try not to do that again!

Thank you, will need all the luck I can get to make sure tomorrow isn’t like this one! 🍀🍀
The last bonus recouped a what could have been a pain. I am happy for you.

Epic come back
Wish I had tried that bet a little sooner…a few spins earlier or a couple more orbs and it would’ve been a green day!
I was getting to worry about you, just in time 😊
I was definitely worried! It wasn’t looking good and there wasn’t much of an indication that it wanted to hit…thankfully it saved me! 🤑
I appreciate this session
Thank you. It wasn’t pretty, but survived to fight another day. The jackpot was good, it just came a little late.
lo bueno que recupero lo invertido 😮 pensé se iba sin nada🎉😢
Sí, fue un buen premio mayor y fue bueno recuperar parte del dinero. ¡Podría haber sido mucho, mucho peor!
asi es dimelo a mi que no juego como usted pero he jugado y pierdo gastos que no debia 🤭😭

Oh no, ten cuidado y trata de no perder demasiado.

This was in Detroit…they all take your money, it’s just a question of how fast. And these days , they’re all tight and obnoxious.
you should have continued on. when it gives it will continue to give

Yes, we can finally exhale! Sometimes a good loss is a victory…unfortunately.
Still down lol

It looks like you put $9,000 in to get $5,000 out. You went 300 + spins without any free games. This is a loss!
