I did some research and now I see why the hostile treatment toward winning players. Marcus Suan is the Casino Manager at Casino Montelago and previously worked for Michael Gaughan and Coast/Boyd Gaming.

Haven't seen this game in awhile. There are about 10 slant tops of 10's or better at the Suncoast---by the poker room and sports book.
Paytables are:
Royal 4700
str. flush-250
4 of a kind 125
fh-50
fl-35
straight-25
3 of a kind 15
2 pair 5
10's 5.
This is about a 95 percent payback ( if my math is correct).
Do they really think this games will catch on???---everybody will go broke

I am somewhat surprised that the Slot Club Manager is refusing to take or return my calls at this time. I can see them being upset that I won some of their money, but I'm really surprised they are being so unethical by trying to steal the cash back.

At the request of Gaming Control, I called CM again today and requested to speak to the highest casino manager on duty. Management says they are now holding my money while they conduct "an investigation". Why didn't they conduct their investigation BEFORE my trespass? In other words they kicked me out because I won. NOW they are trying to figure out how I won.
I hit the royal at TI, but could not figure how to post it, thanks.
Just wanted to comment on this crazy game we play. Within the one hour I played I got two four to the royals and did not hit.
Came back after dinner with $100 before bed and hit the royal by drawing FOUR! Crazy game.

More counterarguments from the last couple of months:
The recent deal at Sam's Town where they were giving $1 per 500 pts for existing points and the recent change at Stations where they gave an extra 40% in comps for their existing points. The recent change at Terrible's where they gave everyone 20% more free play for their existing points.

In August there was a promotion from Las Vegas with a play-up for Tourneau (a watch store) credit. I knew one could use TR credits to buy additional Tourneau value, but considering the markup, etc, that might not be very much above the 2:1 cash exchange you can find around the system. But I asked my host anyway, and lo and behold it was a 1:1 exchange! I took about 4 new Rolexes with it. Nah nah, Caesar's!

Of course, he's certainly free to think whatever he wants of pros, but the
fact that he feels compelled to speak contemptuously of them at every
opportunity says something about his mental state if you ask me.
I'm sure it will be abundantly clear to most vpFree
members if it's the speaker or his intended targets
that are most deserving of the name calling and baseless
denigration.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.

The IL lottery shows the odds as 1:10,179,260 since you get two picks for a $1 play. ( You cannot buy a 50c lotto play in IL.)

No "probably" about it. These idiots that proclaim themselves "pro's banging away at eye glazing speed while drinking their "black coffee" are pathetic.
I've made money over the years playing at a very leisurely pace and enjoying the free cocktails. Just spent 3 days at Resorts AC banging away at a nice leisurely pace on 9-6 JOB, sipping whiskey sours and B & B on the rocks. Lost $10 but had $60 free play so another winning trip. Not to mention the free room, pool, beautiful days on the Boardwalk, funnel cake, a corn dog, etc.
That's living, not gulping black coffee and playing at machine gun pace for hours at a time till your eyes and body are on verge of collapse.
Reno, Tahoe and Wendover from Nov. 14-21.

I have not been there for a while but keep reading the FPDW machines are sometimes very slow. I am not a professional and not very fast either. My top speed is probably about 500 hands per hour which by pro standards would be very slow.
When they are slow are they much slower than that? Will the attendants turn up the speed for you?
thanks
