Multiple Jackpots Letters2 October 2001
A few weeks ago, I wrote about hitting the $1,200 jackpot on four aces twice within five hands on a White Hot Aces video poker machine. That brought many replies from readers who wanted to share their experiences with multiple jackpots. Coincidentally, all the replies were from video poker players. I'm still looking for someone who has hit back-to-back jackpots on the same slot machine. That's theoretically possible, although extremely rare. While we wait for a back-to-back slots winner, here's a look at what the readers had to say. First, there's Dave from Oak Park, who e-mailed to tell of big hits on consecutive casino visits:
Another fellow had multiple royals in one memorable day at Harrah's East Chicago:
Three royals in a short time, with two of them for $4,000 each, is quite a thrill. But how about three royals at once? Another player, Mike, tripled his pleasure:
Natural royal flushes are a surprise on any machine, but they're real shockers on Deuces Wild, where players are conditioned to look for the 2s. This reader found the 2s -- plenty of them.
I didn't have to look far for a back-to-back Deuces winner. All I had to do was check this phone mail message from a fellow Sun-Times worker, Diane. About nine or 10 months ago, I was playing at Empress Joliet on a quarter Triple Play game. I was dealt three deuces, and I held them and threw away the other two cards. On one line, I drew the fourth deuce. After the attendant paid me the $250, they asked me to play again to clear it off. I was dealt one deuce and threw away the other cards, and on one line, I caught the other three deuces. Back-to-back hands on the same machine, so it does happen.
