Panda-monium!

After dinner, we said goodbye to the Hounslows who had an early morning flight – and then E, Malv and I were ready for a gamble …

The Riviera was twinkling at us from across the road. Famous for being a location for various Vegas movies (among them, my favourite, Casino) I wanted to check it out. It seemed abit sad and faded to me …..any hint of it’s former glory just an echo in Vegas time.
So we didn’t stay long.

But we weren’t done yet, and with E’s previous luck in mind, we headed back to The Wynn.

The Wynn is definitely E’s lucky place …but he was a little more careful now he’d banked up some ‘wynnings’….

The Wild Waves weren’t being quite so wild paying out, so he moved on….
and 3 Pandas caught his eye…..

Panda-ring (sorry!) to E’s max lines at 1c a line, The Pandas gave him 180 free spins.
Yes, You read that right. 180.

He was kicking himself as each spin racked up a few more credits. It took forever to get through them all and at the end he had $250. Pretty damn good! …but E was a man now used to bigger money. And he hadn’t adhered to his ‘play big to win big’ philosophy. He’s still kicking himself about it to this day…

After all, if you are going to be Slotty Bigballs ...you have to bet big!

All three of us had a bit of luck that night. Sitting side by side with E and his Pandas …Malv picked up $200 on Hexbreaker2 and I cashed out $110 from Coyote Moon.

So we quit while we were ahead …and, with a kind offer from Malv to drive us Downtown the next day, …at 1.30 we called it night ….
