I hit the Royal Flush jackpot at Bally's !

I leave out of the house to play some poker this past Tuesday, I headed to Monte Carlo with the hopes of playing in one of their super soft 1-2 games, however when I got there they didn’t have a game going. Feeling adventurous I decided to drive down to the M and play over there. Sure enough when I get to the M they don’t have a game. Now I decide that the Luxor will be a good place to play so I race back North hoping to finally find a 1-2 game in this town. While on the 15 I saw a sign for Bally’s casino, I figured what the hell I play at Bally’s on a regular, I know they will have a game going. I drive over to Bally’s to look for a seat, on their board under interest list instead of having a list of players names they had a list of their royal flush payouts. Jokingly I tell the floor man “I’m interested in the spades royal flush” we both shared a laugh and he showed me to my seat. I played for about 10 min when I was dealt K-10 of spades from UTG. I opened for $7 and got called in a few spots. The flop came Js - Jd 9h I lead out with the gut shot and get called in one spot. The turn is the Qd and I make the straight. My opponent leads out for about a 1/3 of his stack and I put him all in. He shows 10 - 8 for the low end of the straight. Elated to have him drawing dead I wait for the meaningless river card. It is the As the gin card of all gin cards. Initially I didn’t even realize I made a royal I was just happy to take down an all in pot. The dealer quickly brought it to my attention and it suddenly dawned on me that I was about to get $3692. After providing my I.D and signing a few forms the floor man came over and paid me in chips. I got up cashed out tipped the dealers and headed home cause that’s as good as it gets.
