Bob's big win in the
VP tournament, 4th out of over 350 entrants!! Then he went on to win more cash in the drawing.
|
Lisa's long-time friend, David, who came to the casino for a visit and some "catch up" time. What a nice guy.

It may
be difficult to see, but Bob finished in 4th place (missing
3rd by 5 coins out of over 7,000), and Lisa ended in 35th place
out of more than 350 players! |
What?
This is Bob's failed attempt at taking a photo of a royal flush
(held 3 high hearts) during his second tournament round, his
first within-tournament royal. He didn't want to waste
time taking the photo while the clock was ticking... but
he knows what this blur represents... |

Our annual "California denim shirt" picture. We are so proud to own and wear them. |
Annie and Lisa snuck over to Main Street Station for a libation, which, luckily, is a "sister" casino to the California, since they still have their Cal shirts on. |

Notice we not only have matching shirts, but matching gambling bags as well, courtesy of Lisa!! Thanks, Lisa. |
Having a little fun outside - we rarely get out of the casino - gorgeous weather!! |

A nice "gift" of $150 for
a dealt set of Jacks on a Super Double Bonus machine, one of
Bob's favorites. |
A welcome hit anytime, a set of 4s
with a kicker for a cool 200 clams. |

First night of the trip and Sharon
draws two cards to complete a Royal Flush! |
Just after a bonus round on one of
Bob's favorite penny machines. One of the bonus
spins was good for $375. |

Certain VP machines such as Super
Aces Bonus pays 2000 coins for a set of Aces. At the
quarter level ($1.25 or 5 quarter bet) that's a $500 hit. |
Next day,same machine but this one
was hit while playing at the 50 cent level for $1000. |
