vpplayer offered suggestions for the game show radio show. Thank you for your suggestions. I didn't see your note until after the show was over. Maybe some will be put on the list of "filler" questions for future shows when we have a little time to kill. Bob

According to my contact, she reconfirmed that it (11X Reels/7X Video Poker
every Sunday in August) is accurate. I only post dates that are available
to the general public. Keep in mind that mailers often vary and are only
intended for the person who receives it.

I think the Gold Coast Sunday multiplier listed is incorrect for August.

That's interesting - I've never encountered a photo ID request when cashing tickets. Is there a particular limit on a single ticket that triggers this? I've cashed individual tickets in excess of the magic $1200 mark, and multiple tickets that exceeded that by a factor of 3 1/2 to 4.

This article refers to vouchers that were not redeemed. It's a misnomer these days to say you "cashed out a machine." You got a voucher. You are not cashed out until you redeem the voucher. There are probably multiple reasons why people take the vouchers but don't cash them out. Faulty memory has to be one of them.
To paraphrase the writer of the article "the expected $35,000,000 to the state in the 2011-2013 bienniem is just a fraction....of total gross. A ballpark guess on my part is it will cost the slot departments about 0.2% of win. The writer should have talked to some video poker players. We all know that a couple of tenths can make or break a play.

See http://tinyurl.com/bopkbqs
and how about this interesting "story" http://tinyurl.com/bmg8x4k
And while I'm at it, most all that stuff people posted about police reports and complaints was ill-informed too. Do your research. BTW, in some states, like NV , one files a "application for a criminal complaint"... in others it's called a "request". Technically speaking, you don't (that is can't) actually file a criminal complaint itself. That's for the prosecutor, DA, etc, who determines, well, (to be non technical) if there was was crime committed (well that's not quite the correct phrase, but it will do)
This should make things a bit clearer (LOL):

Some more interesting "facts" to ponder. When tickets get large enough, casinos require photo ID to cash them. They also match the ID to the information from the ticket the information was actually on your ticket (your players club card was in the machine, wasn't it?). That kinda brings up all kinds of other interesting issues/stories... but they are for another day.
Hi Mike,
I am interested in some SWA free drink coupons.
At this time, I have the following LVA gambling coupons available:
Ellis Island$10 slot play
Golden Gate 2-1 BJ payoff
Terribles 2-1 BJ payoff
All ACG gambling coupons (except Palms & Orleans) are available.
I'm going to LV on Sept. 8 for a week. Whatever is left in the LVA
will be yours, if you want.
Lou Cordier

Here are some random probability and gambling related ideas it would be interesting to discuss from game shows.
It might be fun to cover basic optimal strategy for final Jeopardy and daily doubles at some point. I see so many people screw daily doubles up but most people have a reasonable sense of how to play final Jeopardy.
Guessing on the old version of who wants to be a millionaire. Like if you are at 64K going for 125K, when is it optimal to guess? What assumptions do you need about future questions?
Is it ever optimal to throw initial bids on the price is right (intentionally lose)? (If there is one car per 3 contestants, you get information by throwing the first challenge)
