Frank-I have to commend you and "Bob" for those M progressives. They are a great asset to the VP community. I hope they last forever. If Palms and other nice payback FPDW plays go away I am going to take a week to learn some of those otherwise horrific games and you will have the "pleasure" of seeing my fat ass at M!
PS-What happened to the interviews with Singer and the guy who wrote that Casino-ology book? Hope they don't go the way of the long promised cocktail waitress interview. LOL.

That was a good bank of them if I recall, I often wondered why the casino kept them. I'm not sure what the meter was on them but I seem to recall they frequently reached in the $1200s, even $1300. That's pretty good for a 25-cent FPDW progressive!
