StephPS79 Posted April 12, 2023 #27 Share Posted April 12, 2023 $1400 on my first ever cruise in 2018! Not much, but still chasing another jackpot. I'm in some "other CCL Casino forums" - people there post multiple jackpots a cruise. I don't know how they are getting so lucky... Well, probably because they are rolling $20 (or more!) spins lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandbob Posted April 12, 2023 #28 Share Posted April 12, 2023 $3750 on a quarter machine maybe 18or 20 years ago. Had several $2500 hits throughout my sailing days. I would average at least 1 taxable win per year over 15 years. On a recent million dollar slot promo on Mardi Gras, the slot limit was raised, in some cases to $38 or $40, and we saw numerous jackpots over $10,000 every night. Carnival had staged teams standing throughout the casino to handle the high volume of IRS reportables. Unfortunately we were not that lucky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djptcp Posted April 14, 2023 #32 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Last year I won $8,576 on a penny Buffalo slot machine! I had over 60 free games in a bonus round and mostly buffalo across the screen on every game. (My bet was $2.40 per pull.) Pretty exciting! I was actually paid in cash - expected a check, but no, cash. Last year I also won $1,400 and $1,200 on two Buffalo slot machines on a Holland America cruise. First one in the morning and I moved to the Buffalo next to it and won the second one on it. All 3 jackpots could have played havoc with our taxes this year, but I got Win/Loss Statements that covered more than half the winnings. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

300dtc Posted April 14, 2023 #35 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Most I ever hit was $660 on a .75 bet. But hubby won $2400 on a .60 bet on Buffalo! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audcc77 Posted April 14, 2023 #36 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Sounds like I need to investigate the Buffalo slot. I JUST started playing the Panda, having stayed on Quick Hit for years. These slots with the multiple rows of letters and symbols is too confusing to me. 😂. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare EngIceDave Posted April 15, 2023 #38 Share Posted April 15, 2023 On my present Luminosa cruise, gentleman told me he won $11K on the first night (I have no verification) Here's been some of my play the last few days 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsox1584 Posted April 15, 2023 #39 Share Posted April 15, 2023 (edited) I won $500 on a slot machine back in 2011 on the Imagination on the last night of the cruise. I was with a group of friends that cruise so I bought everyone lunch at the airport coming home 😊 Edited April 15, 2023 by redsox1584 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auralia Posted April 15, 2023 #40 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Wasn’t me but 2 weeks ago on the magic someone won 43,800$. I think I’d never play again and assume all my luck ran out lol. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mz-s Posted April 15, 2023 #41 Share Posted April 15, 2023 My wife has won several $300-$600 minis and minors or whatever that machine calls them. She typically gives them back by the end of the cruise. I play table games and don't really keep track of how much each individual hand wins. I've probably won $100 on one hand before but I am far from a high roller and mostly play just enough to continue to get my casino offers. Typically we leave the cruise with close to the money we entered with, but no actual winnings. We are happy with that arrangement because we get free cruises and drinks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I’m spending a good amount but when I see people sitting there at a slot machine on the second day with over 30,000 points, that’s when I know I’m small potatoes. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aplmac Posted April 16, 2023 #43 Share Posted April 16, 2023 All I ever won was a few Quarters in that silly Shove-the-coins-over-the-edge game.. (see first two pics below) ..but I was there to see the guy win $2,500 when he got that machine aligned Just Right! (other two pics).. Casino Boss came over, game him a big fat check instead and put 'his' $2,500 cash-bait ... back in the machine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and they'll provide the entire years' worth of wins and losses on a statement by request, so you can offset wins that were reported to the IRS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rulers Mom Posted April 17, 2023 #47 Share Posted April 17, 2023 I took my sister with me last minute on my birthday cruise when my husband suddenly couldn't go. She hit for a little over $16k in the middle of the night on a penny slot machine. She bet $10 by mistake, and it paid off. She shared her winnings with me ♥️ 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowlinmoe Posted April 18, 2023 #50 Share Posted April 18, 2023 I forget…for the Carnival casinos, do you get a separate players card for the casino? Or do you just use your normal sail away card so can accumulate points? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
