A TRIP TO FOXWOODS NCR

Not chip related though when playing found that the rack chips were new to me so picked up a $5

For years when I have had a couple of days free I've called Foxwoods to see if I could get reservations and no luck. Had to be in NYC last week so on Friday took the day off and rode the bus. What a place! Incredible; I knew it was the world's largest casino but hard to visualize until you get there and roam from casino room to casino room. The bus gives you bonuses and used my $10 table play to net $10. But there were two KENO cards, a game I never play; but turned in the chits and later found I had won $25 which more than paid for the trip; won a $100 in Let-it-Ride; found the huge card room; I was 15th on the list for $1/$5 but was seated in under 10 minutes. Turned out the game was more like $5/$5. A buck opened and someone raised to $6; then the fun began; a few rocks but some very aggressive and loose people; pots rose over $100 many times. In four hours I won just three times and netted $101! Even the expected loss on the vid quarer poker machines and a two hour delayed bus ride back didn't spoil the trip. I'm going back when I can get a free weekend and find room at the inn. grin
