Assume the concern isn't with RF w-2G's, but with those issued on lower level hits (SF's, multiline quads, etc). They don't represent profit, but serve to inflate AGI and can reduce legitimate deductions via phase-outs, etc.

Nita,

The 9/5 $1/$2 JB Spinpoker (2 slant top machines still, outside the Palace H/L along the aisle adjacent to the restrooms) are a very viable play for this.

Personally, I'd play a single line ... 200 plays and cash out.

I would play whatever I normally play at that casino, since I'm always trying to "maximize the value" of my bets, not just when I'm playing free play.

But if you'd feel better if you cashed out a big percentage of the free play, play the most number of hands you can in order to reduce the variance.  So look for good paytables at lower denominations.

I seem to recall hearing that South Point is the best place to play dream card. I will have a better answer for you in a week and a half as I will be in town and intend to play there.

Does anyone have specific info on the dream card games they offer?

[vpFREE] LVA Question of the Day - 22 JAN 2012

 

LVA Question of the Day - 22 JAN 2012

Q: I understand that there was a piece in a 1993 issue of
LVA about Jean Scott´s famous 50-day stay in Vegas (with 49
nights comped). The archives only go back to 1999, though.
Any way that you could re-post that article? Thanks!

[vpFREE] Re: tax question

 

To make sure you haven't missed any W2Gs you can get a print run from your
local IRS office but you have to wait until Sep or later because that's
when they finally receive the prior years data. You can also receive runs on
1099s & other tax-related documents that you'll need for filing.

If there's more than 30, you cannot e-file them,
you list the lump sum, if there's less than 30,
you can list them and e-file. E-filing helps
when the IRS does income document matching to
make sure you didn't miss a W-2G. With a lump
sum, they might come back if the numbers don't match up, even if your're
right.
