[vpFREE] Re: another progressive question

 

I have both winpoker and video poker for winners and use them all the time. i have manipulated the lower paytables but never the top jackpot as if it was a progressive. i have to see if i can do that and if it will generate a table of the best plays at the different levels of the jackpot.

some times when i come across a progressive i really didnt go into the casino looking for that opportunity. Maybe, i will do as someone said earlier and download all these charts to my phone.

[vpFREE] Casino safety?

I am curious about information people have on this because I was shocked to hear about how regular thefts occur in two casinos from people who are long-time regulars. Once every third month in the high limit rooms! Seemed like a lot to me and the people were not ever caught to their knowledge. I mostly play in high limit rooms in large part because I thought they would be safer and they probably are, which is why this info was kind of scary, even though it is a small sample size.

You can pick out an example of crime from anywhere. Casinos are one of the safest entertainment environments to be in for families. For years I carried tens of thousands of dollars on me on weekly trips to Nevada and I never felt safer than when inside them. Security personnel and cameras everywhere are a big deterrent to all but the dumbest bad guys.
