Well we went to chinook winds casino today at 11:00 a.m. and got back to town around 3:00 p.m.  The coast was pretty it was windy and sunny and only 64 degrees.  We had breakfast at jack in the box so we did not eat on the coast.  Well here is the results mom had $100 and before I could get change and get my beer she had already lost it because she bet $4.00 on white orchids.  So I was well you are going to have to wait for me to play.  So she had comp points so she played those and got back up to $100.  So I sat down at unicorns and was betting $1.00 a spin on a nickel machine got my $160 up to $200 then I decided to bet $10 a spin and won another $110 so I was up to $310.  So I cashed out and went to lion dance and started to bet $4.00 a spin got down to $200 and hit the bonus round for five spins.  Got only $18 out of the bonus round so money was going fast and sure enough I lost it all in lion dance.  So I had comp points left so I decided to play them and the game was nefertiti I had $24 in comps so I downloaded it into the machine.  Got down to $10 and hit the bonus 10 spins at a 4 times multiplier and it only paid back $15 and I was betting the max $2.50 so I was completely bummed about both times today in the bonus round.  I could not getting any wilds to match for the big bucks so that sucked but that is the nature of gaming.  So mom went to moolah money and put $30 and she was betting a $1.50 and she got a hit for $30 so it put her up to $60 but she was trying for the bonus and she never got it.  She played it out and never got another big hit after that $30 on moolah money so she lost it.  So we left the casino and headed home traffic was not that bad for a friday labor day weekend but lots of people were headed to the coast.  So our total losses today at the casino mom $200 between what I gave her and what she won and $310 for me between the $169 I put in and the $141 I won.  Our next trip is on the 20th of september my birthday I get a $75 steak vouchers to the steak house their at the casino and 2000 comp points to added to my account since mom and I are premier members.  When they redo the points in november we will be going down to mvp again because we just have not been going to the casino that much this year.  Had the car brake down and had to fix that then the bills and josy my niece graduated and helped her out too.  So it is nice to have the status but we don't need it if it is going to cost a lot to get it.  Thanks for listening I will tell you about our next trip when we get back on the 20th.  Have a good night!-weshar75
