Went to Vegas for the NFR. Didn't have much money to spend on gambling that time. I was down to my last $20 and only my 2nd day there. I put $20 in a machine and hit $970. That was cool!!!

Later that night after going to the rodeo we came back to Golden Nugget where we were staying and I proceeded to win another $1700 playing Three Card Poker and learned how to play Craps. Got very lucky on Craps. T

he next night went to Barbaray Coast played Craps and won about $800and then started playing Three Card Poker. After playing for a while, I hit a Straight Flush (2 in a row) and then the next hand hit a Three of a Kind. That was a total of $4000 on three hands. I had never won that much in my life gambling. I left the next evening with my $4000. Now that is a great 4-day weekend in Vegas when you only had $300 to gamble with in the first place.

By the way, my birthday is March 22nd so what a better way to celebrate my birthday than to be in Vegas and seeing the Blue Men.

Choose me and see if I can get lucky again.
