The second day was a multiplier day, but I backed that out of the tally. Was bouncing between NSUD at 1 per $10, Uglies (with a meter that made them not ugly at all) at 1 per $5, and some 8/5 BP at 1 per $5 that the wife is learning on. She gave back about $50 in EV versus JoB (it's the only strategy she knows well), but she was happy all weekend, and that's easily worth $50 to me.
I'd ballpark our coin-in at $35k for the trip, and we left down $30. Hit Deuces four times and was lucky over all. And for what it's worth, you're not the only one who thinks MS is like crack. I tried to get on the machine off and on all weekend and the only time I could was 6am Sunday.
I'm just glad my name isn't Edward Perez. His name was called as the $2,000 cash drawing winner Sunday and he wasn't present. I won't be present next Sunday, hope no one tells me my name was called. I don't want to know. ;)
