The worst possible thing to happen to you?

The dealer does not need to have a hand for you to win the progressive, if you have covered it with your $1

the one tablegame that i love to play, even though i kno wthat the house has a big edge is roulette. something about the game is just a blast, splashing chips all around the board.

my only problem with it is that all of the local casinos use $1 chips, with a $10 minimum bet. i have no problem throwing $10 out there every spin, but i prefer to play with smaller denominations for the chips. it just makes the game more fun.

Thats a pity, my local casino you can get $1 on numbers and no min total bet. I always have a blast with roullette, its cheap fun.

I don't play casino games any more, but even when I did, I never paid the $1 sucker bet for jackpots.... If this happened to me, I would be ill. At least in Let It Ride, for example, you're stil going to win a ton of money without the jackpot... that's just a nice added bonus. But $600 vs. $300,000? Ugh.

lol if this happened to me I would puke for sure. I'd also likely not show up again for at least 2 months... Not because that's how long it'd take for me to recover, but for fear of the many degenerates who'd recognize me and ask about the 'incident'.

[edit: Only 2 things I can remember that I would consider the worst thing to happen to me. 1: I once accidentally called a 70 buck all in PF with q5o when the PS table popped up. 2: I accidentally folded the nuts, which was a huge pot (went for check raise but clicked chek fold when guy I didn't think would bet did... Damn now i'm in a bad mood) ]

Cheers,

I remember reading an article about a similar situation a few years back, at Foxwoods I think. Some guy who went there to play regularly hit a royal flush, and even though he usually covered that $1, he had just forgotten to on that one hand. IIRC the jackpot was somewhere around $1 million.
