RoadHouse Reels~I won Big but what a nightmare....

imkelle, well done on your win, but i'm wondering did you have any other wins?

i'm make your first win $4,800 and your 2nd $3,200, so thats $8,000 so where did the rest of the balance come from?, not to mention that this is a high stake/high variance slot so there would of been a lot more won due to natural losses in play to cover that final balance.

also out of interest how did you get a $200 first sign up bonus ? when the first sign up bonus is $100 and the follow up for 2nd deposit is $150 ?

i'm not critisising here but would love to be in your luck bracket one day.

I beleive that when I made my deposit there was a promo going on that said "deposit 50 get 200"...I deposited 200 not fifty..thats how i started..
as far as where did the rest of the balance come from all i know is that i was up and then goin down..up..down. When the jackpot hit i was only betting ten dollars then. i was down to almost the 200 i began with..that got me up to about 5000..somewhere in between there I hit a few nice ones..and before i knew it I was up to 8000...then shortly after that i reached the 14 thousand dollar mark and stopped. I was doing 100 dollar bets at that point.
If I would've been doing pulls at 100$ each when that jackpot hit..I would have won somewhere around 50,000$!!

I could be mistaken on that promo ..yaknow now that im thinking about it I may have it confused with Riverbells Promo..its kinda running together. But i know I had lost all of the money the night i did my deposit and the following morning I had the bonus in my account. I think the promo reads on your first deposit receive 100% back, 2nd deposit recieve 100% up to 150.00.

anyway i hope this all makes sense...

FYI I received my Checks today...They came as two payments, one for 9000$ and one for 5000$. HURRAYY!! All in one envelope via FedEX. .went to the bank and put every dime in my savings acct. How long it will sit there, I don't know..hehe

I am very pleased with the outcome of all of this..and also because I feel like I have made some friends on this forum. I like you all..Very good people..
Id like to keep hanging out here for a bit if you don't mind...

one more tiny thing:
For some reason I get the feeling that some of you all are thinking..oh sure..this isn't real and i know for a fact anyone can doctor screenshots if they put their mind to it..I want to clarify that THIS IS ALL TRUE...every word of it..

My earlier comments were not meant to be harsh, just firm, and I wrote them out of respect for you and your life. This is a serious business, people - precious lives have been completely and utterly wasted because of compulsive gambling.

Best of luck, Kelly and congrats on your win - and thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.

Cheers,
SM

'Nuff said, beautifully written ...THANK YOU!!!

I think that I did my original post here because I knew I was going into merky water with my behaviour and I also was worried about the way it was being handled by the casino...You all are so smart and I respect you comments, even if I didn't want to listen. Thank you again everyone !

Hi Kelly,

I used to live in Monterey - up on Laine street right above where the Dream Theater used to be. I was one of Monterey's first punks back when disco was king - back before the Aquarium was built - back when most of Cannery Row was abandoned buildings. Man, I have a lot of stories about that place

I have a daughter who works at Sly McFly's BTW

Anyway, it prides me to know that many of the members here have noted your posts and pointed out that this recreational activity (gambling) must ALWAYS be kept in check. There is a lot of really good advice here; you should heed it.

And congrats on your win! Please spend the cash on something tangible like a new entertainment center or something.

Cheers!

Well said Bryan! Nothing is more regretful than using a great win to buy more gambling losses.

Even more amazing than your win is that fedex delivered your checks one day early.Ive tracked packages with them and if it goes out on their truck one day early they keep it there until the scheduled delivery day.You sure are lucky! I'd love to see a screenshot of your checks Kellie

she deposited them...

Why would you want a screenshot of her checks???
I'm sure they have address and personal info on them...

**imkellye** · 30th November 2005, 08:02 PM

i could maybe send you a scan of the letter that came with each one.. i do have those. and Yes i did deposit them yesterday. I had meant to take a copy but i forgot about it till after i got home from the bank..

But you really dont need to see my personal info right? lol

Casino-meister..I have lived here my entire life...hmmm i wonder if i know you..My family built one of the original grocery stores in monterey. in oak grove..way before i was born and that was in 1960. Are you my age? because i know exactly where you lived on Laine St..I mean area wise. Did you attend Monterey High? I graduated in 1978. wouldnt that be funny if i know you ..HA..You may know by boyfriend "augie" that is an unusual name. He is 50. Let me know.
Im still shaking my head how crazy this could end up LoL

Congratulations Kellye!

Sounds a bit frustrating while you waited for your money. I think everyone is a bit on edge when something so exciting as a win like this would be comes your way. What a nice thing to have happen right before Christmas.

Congrats again on that win!
