Saw the LAS area and was going to ask if anyone had ever won or knew someone who had one at the airport.
You answered my question afang.

I've hit a full jackpot and a bonus jackpot in the last three months.
In late September, I won $1,000 on a five coin quarter video poker machine (Royal Flush with no wild cards).
Two weeks ago, I won $120 on a two coin nickel machine (old spinning reels variety).
Payoff on the first was 800x my original bet.
Payoff on the second was 1200x my original bet.
Of course, the airport is the ONLY place I ever win in Vegas!

Just read a newspaper article on slots in Las Vegas and they say the slots at the airport have typically some 5% less payout than the average one in town.
So you had some very good luck...
