something Dancer's VPW covered or improved upon that these did not but you
just replied saying "it's not a corner you should cut" which I assumed
translated to "I don't know." That led me to believe that the variety of
free programs I was using covered everything essential that Dancer's VPW
did. I did use it for the trial period and while it was certainly much nicer
looking than older programs like Frugal Video Poker (now free) and the
various java applet simulators, it didn't have anything I couldn't get
elsewhere for free except some varieties I have no interest in (super x pay,
100-play, etc.).
I don't see how video poker software is going to help change the paytables
available to me. I can already learn any game I want with freely available
info if needed, I'm just not as interested in a trip due to all the news of
good machines being taken out. It just seems like things are snowballing and
any good machines are going to have lines/vultures/people I don't want to
deal with which pretty much kills my interest in a Vegas trip.
I still play VP every now and then, 99.92 FP 2PJW at Barona in San Diego,
but the idea of paying all that money in gas/hotels/food to play at
marginally better machines no longer seems worth it. I realized early on (my
first post to vpfree) that VP was something to file under recreation, so the
main draw of a Vegas trip was to get more play for my money. It's now
questionable whether that's the case.due to worsening pay tables, and I fail
to understand how purchasing some pricey software changes that. In fact, it
seems to make things worse if anything (60 bucks off my ER).
