Rumor has it that the slots are looser the first night of the cruise.

My wife hit the jackpot for $500 in July on a nickel machine when we were on the Legend of the Seas in the Med and one of our friends won the slots tourney for $250. In 10 cruises thats the first time she had won a large amount though and it was about mid cruise.

i won $500 on first night mariner of the seas cruise back in 0ct 05........... it was a .50 machine with 1.00 max bet- i think i only did .50 tho.....?:confused:

I can't speak for the slots, but after an up and down week, I walked away w/ about $200 once from the blackjack tables. There was an 18-yr old kid who was there every night with his parents that ended up winning around $2000 over the week!

[granger]

I won $3000 on the Wheel of Fortune with a $10 bet, last night of my cruise.

[csk]

my husband won a free cruise for the Freedom Dec 14th and a seat in the Texas Holdem tournment, so he was happy

 

Saw a man on the Explorer just a couple of weeks ago, win $20,000 on the Wheel of Fortune the first night with a $3 bet. guess it does happen, just ot to me

[cruiserbryce]

Yeah I was going to say the same thing..... I recall hearing something over the tannoy one night about someone scooping something on the Deal or No Deal machines..... there should be prizes for coming 2nd not just for winning ;)

It seems the only cruisers that do not win in the casino are you and me

We have won... Nada... zilch... nothing... zero... you get the idea!:(

[piercetc4]

my mil won the slot tourney on eos = 500

my friend won slot tourney on another cruise = 750

and on a ccl cruise the cashier told me a guy won the 200k jackpot on some blazing 777's machine 15 minutes before i came into the casino.....lol..... so i missed that one!

we spend several hours a night in the casino while on a cruise- "winner" sightings are not as common as the rest of us with the big L on our foreheads....lol

Rumor has it that the slots are looser the first night of the cruise.

 

I'm an avid slot player and out of 18 cruises, the first night has always been the worst for me!

[Cheerysmom]

My DH won enough playing roulette to pay our "walkoff" in Cash AND put some towards our next cruise. .. and I had a bunch of spa treatments, bottles of wine, purchases . . . :D

about $2300!

Every time I would walk by him I would say "hand over all your winnings for me to hold" and gave him $50 bucks to continue. Otherwise he would have kept playing until he lost it all . ... that's what they are counting on! the hard thing is to know when to walk away . . . .

 

Good Luck . . .

[jmezmom]

Our friends won $10,000 on the last night at closing time....she was going to cash out but decided to quickly play the credits and hit the jackpot on the last pull.

 

this was on princess.....don't know how Rc does it but they gave him all $10,000 in cash to walk off the ship with anf fly home...he was worried about the airport, security, customs, etc. I would think they could give some kind of check.

[honeywell]

Largest win on a Single slot pull was $500 on $1 Wheel of Fortune spin bonus. I ended up cashing out of that machine for around $800.

[01Sweetpea]

DH & I each won $75 at the same time on different machines!

[39august]

Two weeks ago on AOS, my husband won about $1300 for the week playing roulette which has the absolute worst odds for players! He usually breaks about even for a week. I, on the other hand, always quit if I lose $20. Amazingly, sometimes I can play 2-3 hours before I lose. And a few times I have won small amounts. It's a sucker game, but darn it, it's fun!

[mrchips14]

OK this is the IRS and i'm pulling all your tax returns

to see if you all clamied your winnings. LOL

 

That will teach you to brag. LOL

[Cancunense]

We have won 1000usd twice on the slots...but get this...on a Holland America Cruise to Hawaii I was winning pretty constantly , and therefore noticed WELL the amount that I was give based on the weight of the coins when turned the money in....one evening after winning a few small times...I won about 350usd...and laughed and took a photo...when I went to turn in the money to the cashier, it rung up LESS than it had on previous LIGHTER coin winnings....and so what I did...as the casino manager had passed us when we were taking a photo of me winning, I looked at my digital camera...and zoomed in to see what the coin count was on the machine...what it had showed I won...showed that to the manager..and they paid me in full.

But suspected a conspiracy!!! Because exactly what happened????:confused:

You lose too huh? :D

[csk]

my understanding is that they pay you cash because you do not have to claim your winnings as you are in international waters, not sure that is just what I thought

This is an example of why going to "no coin out" in the casino is a good idea that works. Less chance for error. Congrats on your wins, though!

Mariner of Seas

August

First night

quarter slot machine

Sizzling 7777777777

3 quarters a pull if you chose to

but you could take the value up more if you chose

I did, I doubled it so for $1.50 a pull

Won 500 dollars after a couple spins

Paid by attendent

Left Casino quickly money in hand.

 

Went back another day, only lost money

 

When the cruise was over between me and my husband (on black jack) we were a couple hundred ahead.

I was afraid to go back thinking I would lose my money.
