I became a Billionaire last night; (on a computer). When I got this thing it had a Hoyle Casino Icon on it. I opened it up; it had all the Casino games just like the real casinos. I have played this this thing almost 5 years; had 994M and hit the jackpot. A box pops up telling me I exceeded the game limit; put me in their HOF; and took off some zeros. They did; 999 of them.

By no means am I an expert! If I was playing that with real money I would be out right now looking for cans. Plus I would be alone; as the Admiral would have kicked me out of the house.
I have more luck with the Tourneys; have picked up some things I noticed.

We had one of those Casino games discs. If you spent 2 million on the slots you would hit the 1 million $$ jackpot every time. It was good to practice the dozens of games. Puy Guy poker and Texas Hold Em of course my favorites. Not as successful at the real Casino playing poker.

I played it a bunch while I was recuping from all of my back surgeries. Just wondered what would happen if I hit 1B; I found out'

I can tell you it remembers me! It is very stingy about payouts. As far as real life winnings; won 9K once. Between Sam and trips back; I might be even.The Admiral won $1200 bucks of pennies once; that machine clanged for 5 minutes once. People came running over thinking she won a biggie, Funny!

Actually I can count on 1 hand how many times we have been to a casino. We have 4 within an hours drive. Won $1200.00 once on a slot on 3rd spin. In and out of there in 30 minutes. We bring 100 bucks cash in each and leave all the plastic in the car. I watch the degenerate gamblers lose their rent money. Sad really. Had a friend call to ask we come and pick him up at the Niagara Casino immediately one night, he had just won 30 grand. By the time we got there he was down another 10, idiot.

That's us! We don't go that often; don't go thinking we are gonna to win; just go on a wim. I think it's funny to see people there with dolls; "Good Luck junk"; and dropping ONE coin (or betting ONE); then rub all over the screen like some kind of spell. We went to Kinder,La once. While there We found out there were Woman's Soft Ball Championship on ESPN.We left the Casino to watch some games.

A pal's gal was a dealer at the Niagara Falls casino. The stories she told about the gamblers were unbelievable. She said there were more than a few that wore adult diapers at the table as to not miss a hot hand. More than one sat through her entire shift. I can't imagine the dedication it must take
