Poker Poker Poker!: [vpFREE] Re: (Fwd) Update for Spirit Mountain Casino, Willamina, OR

I couldn't find the 9/6 machine and I checked as many as I could
get to last Friday. There's no sports bar at Spirit Mtn -- no
bars of any kind. There are four or five big screens. Do you have
a more specific location? There were a couple of machines that
were busy every time I tried to check them out, maybe another
vpFree reader?

I noticed something weird at SM, I saw it happen twice so I know
I'm not seeing things. I approached an empty machine that was
apparently cycling through screens showing a royal and then the
pay tables, and I clearly saw 9/6. But when I looked through the
games and denominations none of them were 9/6. WTF? Are they
actually showing a 9/6 pay table on the screen saver when the
machine doesn't offer it?

A couple of weeks ago I hit a royal on a .25 deuces wild, and
last Friday I was playing a DW machine in the (tiny crowded)
non-smoking room when I hit four deuces after about ten minutes
of play. The guy next to me went crazy -- he had been playing all
day and hadn't hit anything. When the machine was done crediting
for the four deuces I hit the deal button and got a wild royal. I
thought the guy next to me was going to come unglued.

I know Spirit Mtn is not the greatest VP venue, but unless I'm
missing something there is nowhere else to play anywhere near
Portland. I haven't been to Chinook Winds in Lincoln City lately
-- is that any better?
