## Transcript

local neighborhood firefighter and today I'm going to show you how I turned $300 into over $45,000.
And you're not going to believe how this video ends. So, let's get at it. [music]
All right, so last day of the trip, so why not shoot for the stars? Now, if you've watched a lot of my videos, you know I love me some nine
line [music] slots. They tend to do G kickbacks. though. Uh it doesn't seem to be the case today.
All right, there we go. Big win. [music] Beautiful. Look at that. All right, so we're up.
So I think what we'll do is let's just play it down to our original 100. know, it's not a lot of pulls, but gives us some runway here. [music]
something on [music] these, but if you do get something do get something Oh, like that,
And look at that quick double up. So, we're playing it down to 200. All right, one more spin. [music]
Okay, $100 profit. Kind of a last minute save there, too. Buffalo Inferno. I've seen so [music] many people play it.
A seven Why do I have a sneaking suspicion how this is going to go?
[music] 42 again. Well, at least Aristocrat doesn't falter when it comes to its Buffalo games.
Can't blame anyone but myself. Knew what I was getting into.
I've seen a lot of creators do good on this. Let's see. Need two cent trigger splitter.
Okay, we got a big one. 36. That's got to be good, right,
Look at that. A lot of nothing.
Do it. No.
Oo, big line hits, huh? Come on, do it. Nothing.
I'll at least say those are very engaging. All right, y'all. We're definitely going to stop
stop at 50. >> [music]
Do it. Nothing. Well, it was worth a shot. We're still up.
>> So, peace and long life. This is probably my favorite of all the Dragon probably my favorite of all the Dragon Link games.
The bonus can be incredibly hard to get into, but if you land it, it's got those into, but if you land it, it's got those same two times multipliers as Genghis.
I've had some major wins on this game at low low bets. though. Funny enough, I've never had a good bonus at a high bet on this game.
you played [music] this version? If so, do you like it? Just or blockers. Not do you like it? Just or blockers. Not cool. Dragon Lake.
Three of those peaches to get into [music] the free games.
Is this some good? Oh, there we go. [music] That's really good.
All right, Dragon Lake. We're in profit territory. Love it.
so let's see.
We're just staying alive. That's all that matters. Just staying alive. that matters. Just staying alive. It's been overall a fun fun trip. Uh Beluxy's always a great location. You know, I tend to lean more to Beluxy than
Las Vegas. It's closer. The weather's nicer. nicer. Still a lot of good casino choices here.
The old man is going to have two times multipliers basically. Genus. Oh. Oh, that's good. [music] That's really good.
What's this going to be, [music] Mr. Deer? Heck yeah, [music] on this [music]
[music] Oh. Oh, those. Oh, didn't connect. Oh, so close to re-trigger. Come on. Oh. Oh, [music] that's huge, guys. That's huge.
I need a second here. Okay. We're going to play this down to Okay. We're going to play this down to 800.
about what I wanted to do. Uh, I was thinking about maybe going down to 700, but 800 seems like the same. And we 700, but 800 seems like the same. And we got it again, but at $5. Come on.
Please be the same. Please be the same kind of bonus, guys. Hit that like kind of bonus, guys. Hit that like button. Wish me good luck. button. Wish me good luck. Let's go.
This is the one time I don't want to see orbs. orbs. I want less orbs. I want less orbs. Okay, not bad.
We've only got two games left. We need something big. just a walker. We could have had tens of [music] cross.
lot of money. We're up to $8.91. So, let's keep going.
Horse Play, you need to do it. Go to Horse Play and right now they're Horse Play and right now they're offering a $250 bonus credit match. So, if you put in $10, they will match you $10. If you put
$10, they will match you $10. If you put in $250, they will match you up to $250 in bonus credits. And if you use my promo code, LBHL, you'll actually get an additional $50 in bonus credits. So, if you deposit 10,
you'll get $60 in bonus credits. I really like Horse Play. They are my only partner, my only sponsor. uh took a long time to vet them because I wanted to make sure let's try one that I [music] brought you the best
partners and a site that I would use and I do use them uh quite a bit actually. I do use them uh quite a bit actually. Now they are 100% licensed, legal and regulated in 18 states and more to come. Put the list of those on
more to come. Put the list of those on the screen when I edit this video. heard a lot of good things from people. We go [music] a lot of successful lowbudget members playing on horse play winning some great
playing on horse play winning some great jackpots. I'd love to hear what's the biggest win you've had. Mine so far was actually $5,000.
down to 800. Sticking with that $800 walk away limit. Remember y'all, set those limits. Make sure you leave with some profit. Nice. But peace and long life is keeping us going.
horseplay uh and how exactly it works. Well, it is powered by Live Horse Racing. They're the only uh uh online gaming application that uses live
horse racing to power its games. Very cool. [music] They have holding spin, they have poker, they've got traditional three reel style. A lot of cool options.
Huh? Oh, the deer didn't connect. Oh, Mr. Oh, the deer didn't connect. Oh, Mr. Deer.
Oh, what a bummer. Ah. Oh, it's okay. We're still doing good. A little bit more opportunity to get
little bit more opportunity to get another bonus.
bad, guys. What an absolutely amazing run on guys. What an absolutely amazing run on peace and long life. $100 in, $800 out. So [music] important. There is no more reason to
bankroll build for the day, right? We've already doubled our bankroll. We can continue to play, but we might lose on the next few slots. So, why not just take the profit? I always recommend after a huge win like this, you stop and
pumping. you're feeling like you have some mojo, stop, right? Cuz the casino them back their money. It is your money now. Keep it. So, for me, I'm going to
We're going to go take a quick walk and I'm going to think about what I want to do. Personally, I would say just stop for the day. You're up. That's a lot of money. Most people don't make that in a day. When you come to the casino, you
should have something in mind. A watch, a new phone, maybe pair of shoes, that you win with. maybe pay for your next trip. And when you reach that number, you just stop or you put that money away and then you just gamble with
whatever extra profit that you have. This is pivotal to being successful in the long term at the casino. All right, y'all. So, I'm going to go grab the pup and I'm going to figure out what we're going to do next.
Okay, y'all. So, what I decided to do is this is my last day and I'm going to take the winnings from Dragon Link and I'm going to take the rest of my budget for today and I'm going to put it into one of these. So,
absolute favorite slots and they actually have two of them here. I'm going to play on this one because it actually has a $25 denomination. Now, I like I said earlier, if you're up and it's the beginning of your chip, just
take the win. Walk away, right? It's very hard to get wins like this. Uh, but last day and I haven't done any high limit stuff. So, this is kind of my opportunity to do that. So, I'm perfectly comfortable losing this
$1,000. Um, but if you're not, don't. You know, it's your money. You don't have to give it back to the casino. That is so so important. And honestly, $25 denomination, $50 a pull, $1,000, that's
not a lot. Uh, we're hoping for a couple of those doubles, a couple of those triples to keep us sustained and some good line hits. The average big hit on So, that's what I'm hoping for with the triple symbol. But, let's get at it and
triple symbol. But, let's get at it and see what we can make happen.
loaded up. And most importantly, I've got my take the win walk away bracelet on the most important button, the cash out button. Just a little plug, uh, I do sell these. These are $5. The link to my Venmo is in the description. Uh, just
put in your address and Venmo me. I think they're $5 each and I'll get it out the next day. All right, $50 to spend.
Uh $50 a spin is still really really scary $50 a spin is still really really scary for me. That's a lot of money. But again, we're playing with profit, which is important. And I specifically
chose this game because of this good consistent line hits. This is one of my favorite bankroll building games. And unlike um
triple double diamond, you actually get paid for the doubles and the triple symbols in this game, which can really keep you going. Hey, there we go. Keep doing that. Keep us above our starting point.
Oh. Oh. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. How much you freaking kidding me? I've been waiting my entire life for a hit like
that. I can't believe it. I'm literally shaking right now. I'm trying my hardest shaking right now. I'm trying my hardest not to like freak out because I don't even know what to do. those. So, we're just going to wait. We're We'll
wait for the tenant to to reset the machine and then we will be right back. machine and then we will be right back. Let's go.
reset the machine. We still have [music] $1,150 $1,150 left in there. Um, that took a little left in there. Um, that took a little bit of time, but I'm okay with that.
So, normally I'd say just take the win, walk away. You know, you could take that $1,000, but we are so far ahead right now that I am perfectly comfortable just playing this down. Uh, like you saw, we could still get something incredible.
And we are up significantly. So, let's get back at it. Man, I'm still riding this high. All right.
for me. Really appreciate it. Helps push these videos out. Um, man, sorry, I am still shaking here. You can see [laughter]
All right, fingers crossed. Let's get another one. I can't believe we landed that massive ripper.
say. I'm flying on a cloud here.
Oh, we landed us another ripper, y'all. We got ourselves a tumor on fire today. We got ourselves a tumor on fire today. Heck freaking yeah.
All right. Uh well, I guess we'll get this paid out and be right back. All right, guys. The attendant reset the machine and we got our handay. $45,000 hand pay. biggest hampe of my life. Absolutely
incredible. Uh I I don't even know what to say. So, as you can see, you can absolutely get backto back hand pays. Uh so, we have a little bit more ammo now.
Uh I think what we're going to do is we're going to take the money from the uh 777, run it through two, and no matter what, we're leaving here with $45,000. $45,000.
Uh, [laughter] absolutely insane. H, okay, let's let's get back at it. okay, let's let's get back at it. [sighs]
this money on me. Uh, probably should have taken a check, but I really just have taken a check, but I really just wanted to hold that much cash.
absolutely still possible to get handpays handpays after a big hand pay. [music] Remember, there's no such thing as a hot or cold machine. It is all random.
Again, shout out to Horse Play. Uh, if you haven't checked them out yet, y'all you haven't checked them out yet, y'all remember you can use my promo code LBHL and you'll get $50 in bonus credits and they're matching up to 250 bucks. So,
they're matching up to 250 bucks. So, with my promo code, you get $300 with my promo code, you get $300 in free bonus credits. Not a bad deal.
>> Oh man, two more spins. [music] Okay, let me load up another thousand into here and I'll be right back.
loaded up. Man, I'm still just a little bit in awe Man, I'm still just a little bit in awe here.
Nice. Beautiful. Just need those. Keep us going.
Heck yeah. Those doubles. Uh, it's absolut [crying] Hey, keep bringing those.
Oh, another one. That's I don't think I've ever gotten three in a row before. Uh, what I was saying is it's absolutely possible to get backto back hand pace.
[music] Remember, there's no such thing as a hot or cold machine. [music] It's all random. I've definitely hit some massive hand
I've definitely hit some massive hand pays, one right after the other. [music] Now, today was by far the biggest hand pay of my life. Uh, by a significant pay of my life. Uh, by a significant amount. [music]
this much cash on me, but it'll make for a really good but it'll make for a really good thumbnail. [music]
line hit with a double or triple is going to get us a hand.
keep giving me those. Keep us going. [music] game. This is one of my absolute favorites. I consider it one of the best
bank rolling games. You get good line hits. The doubles and the hits. The doubles and the doubles and the triples keep you alive.
But also, I want you to see I want you to think about we blew through that $850
So, we could have gotten nothing with our original $1,000. We got incredibly our original $1,000. We got incredibly incredibly lucky.
So, keep that in mind. This is amazing, but we're just as likely to have lost all that money.
something here pretty soon. We're down another $1,000.
this last thousand and we'll be right back. loaded up and this will be our last $1,000 no matter what. We are leaving
here after this. Uh it's so important to set those limits. You have to know when to walk away. And that's why I have on me my take the win walk away bracelet,
which you can find the link to in the description. description. All right, let's get at it, you guys.
I want to get that three alarm fire today. today. [music]
a bit huge. [music]
through this. That's about 60 spins. Now, we did get a bunch of kickbacks, right? Um, [music] but that's important to think about.
blue. Love it. Uh, that's one of the things I think about when I play a game things I think about when I play a game again. And I think about [music]
big line hit. [music] And then I base that on how much I'm And then I base that on how much I'm going to put into the machine.
there's a good chance we weren't going to get anything, but we got super lucky. to get anything, but we got super lucky. >> [music]
my mom. She's in need of a uh a new car. So, always got to take care of your So, always got to take care of your parents. decided to get my mom a new car.
she's worked hard her whole life. She totally deserves it. So, we're going to totally deserves it. So, we're going to surprise her with this today.
doing so well, so maybe $10 would treat us better. Only got $300 left, so [music] might extend the game play. We can still get a great hand pay at $10. [music]
day playing pirate queen $10 bet and hit a $3,000 jackpot. Freaking amazing. The cool thing about horseplay is that you don't have to get a W2G from them. It's just up to you to
a W2G from them. It's just up to you to report. So, in the moment, tax-free.
[music] Last spin. Nah, that's okay. We are leaving here with $45,000.
feel right now. It has been absolutely a roller coaster. We started with $300 a roller coaster. We started with $300 today.
I don't I don't even know. I do want to say that this is this is not normal. This is the biggest hit of my life, right? I've never had anything even remotely close to this. And I thought for sure we were
going to lose all of uh all of the profit. I was taking a risk because I profit. I was taking a risk because I was up for the trip and it paid off. But it could have not paid off, right? We could have gotten nothing. I chose
kickbacks as you saw, but we could have gotten nothing. Um, we pretty much went through those $2,000 really quickly, right? right? So, [snorts]
this may not happen. And that's why I always say if you're going to shoot your shot, use the casino's money cuz I've definitely done this before and it hasn't worked out. Um, over this last year, I've built up my bank roll, hit my
biggest hand at the time, uh, in Las Vegas. So, I have a runway now. I have more money to take some risk. I still prefer to use the casino's money. Uh, and that's what I recommend. >> Okay. I had to play some big hot flaming
>> Okay. I had to play some big hot flaming pots. Now, last time I had a giant win, I may have gone on tilt just a little bit.
>> So, told myself I wasn't going to spend anything else, but you know, why not? This is my guilty
but you know, why not? This is my guilty pleasure. I like me some super hot pleasure. I like me some super hot flaming hots.
safe upstairs. In retrospect, probably not the best idea to get all cash, but not the best idea to get all cash, but you know, figured it would make a really good thumbnail.
You know, I like this version so much better than the original. I've done so better than the original. I've done so well on it. It's probably one of the few times they've made a sequel to a game. Hey, we've got spicy
>> spicy order. I hope you're hungry. Here we go. >> [laughter]
>> Let's eat. >> All right, the slot gods are in our favor today. [music]
Has anyone else noticed that she has an Australian accent?
>> Order up. $55. I swear every single time I play this game,
If you have a really, really big, big win like we did today, win like we did today, don't go on tilt. Don't go doing crazy big spins. I've done that. I've blown through tens of thousands of dollars. If
you want [music] to continue to play, low roll it, right? You're up thousands of dollars. Low roll it. Set yourself a limit.
>> Order up. $111. Let's go.
But though, seriously, [music] this is the last game. I have to leave.
It's a very, very long drive back to Austin for me. [music] I'm going to stop off at Kashada. Wow. I'm going to stop off at Kashada. Wow. There we go.
Huh? Sorry, children. Didn't mean it that Sorry, children. Didn't mean it that way.
>> But it's about a 12 to 13 hour drive home for me. [music] So, >> part of me just wants to hammer through, get back, not risk staying at Kashada.
Ah, that's okay, though. What a good bonus, you guys.
Last game of [singing and music] the day.
>> What crazy luck we have had today. [music] I [music] guess I can't speed through this.
>> [music] >> Well, just let it count up, I guess. so much. We're at $271.
let's put this down to 250 and then we will call it there.
game. I love it. I think it is so much better than the original. I've gotten the spicy bonus and landed one of the progressives on one of those
peppers. I never got that on the original.
