DoggieDash84 Posted June 8, 2009 #76 Share Posted June 8, 2009 I just recently started playing blackjack in AC and Vegas, but haven't played it on a cruiseship yet. While playing the 25 cent slots on my first cruise, I think I won $160. On my last cruise (or 2nd to last - I forget), I won $120 or something like that.

Kwynot Posted June 28, 2009 #78 Share Posted June 28, 2009 My DH did so well in the casino, people would stop him in the halls to ask how he was doing. He got enough comps to pay for our entire trip on board, including all excursions & gifts we brought home. Don't need to tell you our cruise was also paid entirely through CAS - quite a trip!

SeaBlu Posted March 28, 2010 #80 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I usually win more than I lose in the slot machines, enough to make it fun. One night my DH and I were in a casino with some friends on the Triumph and DH came over to me (I was on a quarter machine and $55 ahead) and said he wanted to leave because he was losing, I said "here sit next to me and play this machine, someone was here and played a whole bunch in it and did not win anything." He put a $10 bill in it and on his third pull he won over $950! We both cashed out and between us we had over $1000. Fun night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azhotrd22 Posted April 7, 2010 #81 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Honeymoon cruise April 09 Carnival Elation I was entered into a slot tournament by my wife for $20. I played and lost out on getting highest score, Was given a ticket for a chance to be wild card player the next day. They called my number and was entered into the game as the wild card player and won the $500 jackpot. Was only a 4 day cruise so winning that money made the cruise free. Split it with my wife and had the best time. I'm not much of a gambler, And that was the most ever won! Happy Cruising everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
framer Posted April 20, 2010 #82 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Really, Let's ask the question this was "how much did you spend on all cruises gambling to win what you did?". 1% get lucky. 2% know what they are doing. 97% are sheep. Yes, I put a few minutes at a table on each cruise. Love it. It's entertainment. framer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munliter Posted July 7, 2010 #83 Share Posted July 7, 2010 On an Alaskan cruise with Princess 6 years ago, we were waiting for our dining table and decided to spend $20. My husband hit $1000 on first try. Cashed out and gave me $20. After a few spins, I also hit $1000. When I went to cash out the guy asked which machine we were on. The next day, it was Out of Order.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadameButterfly Posted August 1, 2010 #84 Share Posted August 1, 2010 WOW! When I was 18, I got to be a contestant on "What Wants to be a Mouseketeer?" on a 7-day cruise on the Disney Magic, I made it all the way to the last question, $400 of on-board credit, a collection of pins and a few other little things were my winnings, but even with the help of my lifelines, I didn't know the answer to the last question. It was a hoot! My Mom was on the group panel on stage along with me, my Dad and sister were out in and audience making the most noise of anyone. I did also put about $40 into slots on our honeymoon with no winnings - not a penny. I'm a little more tight-fisted with my money than most, I'd rather spend on something I know I'll get something out of. I do however have a nostalgic craving for bingo though. It's a family cruise vacation tradition that shan't be broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yakdaddy42 Posted August 4, 2010 #85 Share Posted August 4, 2010 On our first cruise we had a limit of $50 for the trip for the casino, I was at my last two dollars I did a hail Mary I dropped my last $2 into a dollar machine and won $550.00 on that spin. it was back in the days of coin payout so it took a while to put all the coins in a tub, I played more and won 400.00 more. All in all it payed for our S & S account and a nice matching rings for the wife and I on one of the islands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingera Posted October 14, 2010 #90 Share Posted October 14, 2010 My hubby won $120 at Bingo but only after yelling, "bingo!" and having to dance the 'chicken' when he called Bingo early. I must say, he deserved that money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknrobyn04 Posted April 16, 2011 #92 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Both my dad and my sister (technically her ticket, but we split) have won the free cruise raffle. Never won anything myself. Maybe this time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
