to Vegas- 4.5 hour drive.
By the way,
Does anyone know of any training I can do for best strategy on the Bonus
Poker Multi-strike Super Times Pay game?
Dancer apparently does not have it yet.
Thanks Again,

Thanks but I just called the Hard Rock and they don't have the two-in-one
combination game. They have Multi-Strike and Super Times Pay but not
together.

I saw a couple of these with 25c 8/5 BP at the Hard Rock LV.

I remember about ten years back there were Flush Attack machines at the
Las Vegas DTC. Just curious if these had playable paytables. They probably
caused a lot of people to miss their connections!

Ok, I looked at this link. I later googled FTRA, and there could possibly be hours of stuff to read about it. I had never heard of this before. Wow!
I read some of it, and I read the article on digihitch. I had to look up some of the words. I didn't know what MRL was, now I know it's Montana Rail Link. I did know what an SD80 is. Did I understand this guy to say it was so cold that he climbed the ladders and walked across the tops of the hoppers until he reached the back locomotive? ON A MOVING TRAIN, IS HE CRAZY? lol
Fascinating reading, Micky. I'm going to read more about the FTRA later on. But right now I'm going to the casino to collect some bounceback. Thanks!
Thanks!

Outstanding story. Wish I had one just like it.
My main reason for starting this thread was to highlight how some things that seem very unlikely aren't.
Please keep in mind that millions of people make single trips to Vegas every year, and out of those millions of people, it is quite likely that several will have stories like your own.
So the real question is how many people visit Vegas every year that don't have stories like that to tell?
To make this a fair sample, I recommend that everyone that hasn't hit a jackpot on their first hand also chime in, including the people that aren't on vpFREE, and the ones not reading this post.
And please state the total number of "first hands" you've played in your entire life! No estimates. Be exact!

P.S. Only reply to this post if you haven't read it.

On my first hand of a Las Vegas trip a few years ago, I sat down at a $1 100-play JOB, intending to play 15 lines. I inserted $500 and carefully selected the 15 lines. Then, to make sure I played 5-coins per line, I hit "Max play". Oops. I was shocked when the whole screen lit up with hands--100 of them, not 15--and even more shocked when all of those hands showed 4 jacks and a queen. So, I started the trip with a $12000 win on a mis-bet hand.

Here's a link to Leslie Stah's 15 minute piece:
www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7228424n&tag=related;photovideo
She doesn't know what she's talking about calling "slot machines the crack cocaine of gambling" when everyone knows it multistrike video poker :-).
I can still smell those 10/7 DB MS machines at the River Palms when walking past their old location. My arms are getting itchy.

I thought if I ever did that I would have to pack a gun with me because I didn't know who I'd meet or where I'd end up. Maybe it's a good thing I never carried out that fantasy. Sounds dangerous.

The double stacks are the hot shots. We used to make the jump on the north bounds by hanging out south of Charleston BLVD just off Main Street. The engineer would stop the train when the first locomotive crossed the train trestle over Charleston. It took a few minutes to make the crew change and the train was off again. It was the Union Pacific Railroad. The train ran up through Salt Lake City to Ogden where it hit the eastbound track that went thru Wyoming, Nebraska, Iowa and into Illinois.
It's been about 15 years since I jumped a train. I do miss it, but....I'm old and soft now. I went camping with friends a couple of years ago. I woke up the next morning with my back all stoved up from sleeping on the ground. I had to roll over on my stomach and push myself up. "Take me to a hotel!" I said. I was worse than Kate Goselin on Sarah Palin's Alaska. "It better have a bar and a restaurant in it too!"
Yes, the rails were dangerous. It's a young man's game. Google "Freight Train Riders of America" and read about a guy named "Sidetrack." He was on the rails when I was. We couldn't wait for him to get caught. He was a serial killer.
In the link this guy pretty much knows the rails.
http://www.digihitch.com/article1525.html
I was at Morongo Casino last night with a semi-pro live
(not VP) poker player.
We went into the Poker room to check out the action,
as he wanted to maybe play for an hour.
He asked the Poker Room Host about comps, lunch,
etc and she said 'we have no comps or comp money,
very sorry'. So we left.
The pay tables on the VP machines, including the
two 9/6 JoB Full Pay on one coin have been modified
all around and the Dueces Wild has some of the
pays shortened, too.
While scouting for other VP machines, I came by a
huge bank lf flame red Progressive video rells called
"HOT SHOT Progressive".
Is this what you old pros were talking about?
They had a much of what appeared to be tourists,
nobody seeming very serious, playing them, and
there were five, count 'em, five different progressives
ranging from just a few bucks all the way up to some
very very big money.
I am just not smart enough to figure out how big
those progresive banks have to get to make the
game positive, but I can tell you if a good pro
could figure that, there are long periods of slow
time in that casino during the weekdays.
