I get up yesterday expecting to have to pay $850.00 in fines, but when I got to court. Judge said.... $255.00. Hmmmmmm... I just made $595.00, cool.

On the way back I stopped to get gas. Looked around for money. As I am want to do. And there it was. A small wad of money. Turned out to be three hundred dollar bills. Wow....... Now I'm up $895.00 and I haven't even got the sleep outa my eyes yet.

What am I gonna do with 900 dollars in found money? Well, what would you do? Yep, went to the casino.

So, I'm down about $125.00 and I decide to leave. I go out to have a smoke and whilst doing this I decided..... Screw it. Went back in, grabbed another table and plucked my duckets down........

Second hand in I get A7o. The table limps so I decide to take a look. Flop comes A4A. I check and another guy (cool guy) makes a small bet. The whole table folds cept' for my call.

The turn A. Well, okay then..... I'm sitting there with the case one, but I only have a seven kicker. :deal:

So here was the delima on my bet. :joyman: If I bet hard he'll prolly fold. He may only have a 4, and was hoping for a small boat. OR, and that's a big or. :D He's got tens or better. In which case we're looking at a possible jackpot. But.... I'm thinking.... what are the chances that my measly little 7 is gonna hold for the jackpot? So, what to do? I decide to play conservative, and make a bet that anybody could call.... So now we come to the river.

river---> 7. Now we are very close to a jackpot for sure. It all depends on weather the nice guy has tens or better. I bet easy and he calls. Then he turns over wired ............ KINGS.

JACKPOT

This is the second JP I've hit at Hawaiian Gardens. And this time I hauled away $1200.00.

Let's see, I think that makes it $2095.00 for the day.

Now, here's the kicker......... TaDa........ Yesterday was my birthday.... :)

Pretty cool day, huh?

wow what good luck you have.

First thing that happened to me this morning? Stubbed my toe. Not just any toe either. The one with the ingrown toenail. :eek:

Then to top it off, I farted and.... well, let's just say it wasn't a dry one.... :eek:

One day of luck and back to the doldrums. :p

Are you comfortable keeping the $300 that doesn`t belong to you ?

That story almost makes for a decent Seinfeld episode. I bet your life would at least make for an interesting book.

Yes, you're missing something.

The A was good for the hand win, obviously. But it could have been burned on the river for the jackpot. In a jackpot BOTH OF YOUR CARDS MUST PLAY.

So, my dilemma was... Do I hit him hard and risk his fold? Or do I motor along and hope for the jackpot. Leaving me less money for the hand win, but giving me a big jackpot win. I hope that clears it up for you. :)
