BAD!! Hollywood, Sams Town, and Fitz were the only good games in town. Fitz was the best. Had great dealers with good pen. but the gods of luck would not cooperate. I lost every max bet hand and almost every single had that I doubled or split. It was one of those situations where you actually begin to think "god" doesn't like you and is punishing you at the BJ table.
Anyways, wife did great on slots (amazing) and I got a little carried away on the last day of our trip with these damn "wheel of fortune" machines. Played the quarter machine with the intention of just playing until I got a "spinner" (we like to watch it spin) and it never did ($20 bucks), so I moved over to a 50 cent machine and tried again, $60 dollars later NO SPIN. SO-- I decided the dollar machines must have higher payouts/frequency so we went over to those and I stuck in a $100 bill, hit max bet and watched as the wheels spun 33 times to no avail. Finally, pissed off and steaming I stepped up the the $5 dollar wheel o fortune machine and drops in $300. You guessed it-- not a single spinner or payout (I think I got one cherry, twice). And there you have it-- that's how I left Tunica, on the most down of down feelings ever.
I can't wait to go back.
