Sorry to be not more clear that $24.95 is for up to 42 days flat price. Can't win for losing.

That supposed to be some kind of great bargain?

For one-day rentals, that is equivalent to an annual premium of nearly $9,125 - just for collision coverage. If the Mob sold insurance, it would probably cost less.

I played one this morning, Mickey, where the mini moved $4 for every $3 coin-in.

[vpFREE] XVP Rental cars

 



Getting a good price on a rental car the last few years has been a great source of frustration for me. Costco is a great resource but the only way to insure the best price is check back frequently-book-cancel-rebook as the price goes down. The rate swings are as crazy as air fares from hour to hour. It might seem like a waste of time but I frequently get a rate 50% cheaper than my original reservation. Patience and timing. Never prepay! Amex gold cards have a 100%(no hassle) collision coverage insurance option for $24.95 per rental. My own auto policy takes care of liability.

Surprisingly, on both sides of this open seat was a player, banging away for a $25 or $26 mini. I almost felt guilty, sat down at the open seat between the other two players, and snapped off $48 almost immediately. Incredible. God bless their little clueless ploppy souls.

That's some funny stuff, Bob. I've seen similar stuff like one day I walk into the Red Lion in Elko to sweep out the unlinked flush attacks. Of the eight machines, seven were being played....and none of them were in flush attack mode. The one vacant machine in the middle of the bank had the flush attack light blaring across the top of the screen. I sat down and snapped the bonus flush off. God bless their little clueless ploppy souls.

With the feedback I got from you and pyiddy about meter speed, then I have to say that my playable numbers are only valid for a 1% meter. However, anyone can use my nine-step formula to come up with their own playable numbers per the meter speeds in their area.

Still no answer from Harrah's.

I am not the same person who had an increase in Reward Credits balance.

[vpFREE] Video poker.com issues on IPad

 

Anyone else having sound issues with VideoPoker.com games on their IPad. When I play Quick Quads, the game always starts out upside down. Sound only works intermittently. Half the fun is hearing "Quick Quads" when you hit one. I tried both the sound buttons on the game as well as the sound controls on the IPad. Is there a glitch or a simple remedy?
Thanks for any input.

[vpFREE] XVP: Quik Strike

 

Notice how important that meter feed rate is here! The slower the meter(s)
rise, on average the longer the "drop" has to work on your bankroll.

In the Chicago area it is typical to have a 1/4% rise on the Minor Meter and
a 1/8% rise on the Major Meter. (These are the rates for the Rivers which is
$50-$100 for the Minor and $250-$500 for the Major and the Majestic Star
which is $25-$50 for the Minor and $250-$500 for the Major.) I estimate the
"drop" at 14% for both casinos. I need over $98 to play Minor or $495 to
play Major at the Rivers.

[vpFREE] vpFREE Posting Guidelines - 1 SEP 2012

 

vpFREE Posting Guidelines - 1 SEP 2012

http://www.west-point.org/users/usma1955/20228/V/POL_P.htm

1. Everyone should read and be familiar with the vpFREE
FAQ before posting messages on vpFREE Forums.

2. Every message's subject line should accurately identify
the content of the message, to facilitate faster navigation
by interested or uninterested members.

3. If you reply to a message and change the subject matter,
either start a new thread (preferable) with a new subject
line or rename the subject line to reflect its new focus.

4. When replying to messages, quote just enough of the
previous post to maintain continuity. Delete the rest of
the previous post.

5. When replying to messages, clearly differentiate the
previous message(s) from your comments, so that it will be
easy to identify who wrote what.

6. Never post lengthy copyrighted material verbatim without
permission. This includes posts from non-vpFREE internet
forums. Instead, post a link to the material and/or a
summary. Short, credited excerpts may be quoted.

7. Don't use any vpFREE member's real name, even their
first name, on any vpFREE forum unless they themselves use
their real name there.

8. As a spam prevention measure, no one can upload to the
Files Directory on the vpFREE home page unless they get
temporary upload access from the Administrator.

9. Casino personnel probably monitor vpFREE Groups so posts
containing sensitive information should take this into
consideration.

10. Members are expected to observe the rules of
Netiquette , and to practice politeness and show good taste
in their vpFREE posts.

11. Any post that disagrees with vpFREE Dogma and
reaches contradictory conclusions, should be supported with
significant, persuasive documentation. Generalizations and
limited anecdotal evidence aren't persuasive.

12. Most vpFREE members rely on the forum for accurate
information, and may misunderstand, misinterpret or be
confused by tongue-in-cheek posts which are presented as
fact. Always make it very clear in your posts if they are
tongue-in-cheek, by using "smilies", stating that you're
kidding or something similar.

13. Use FREEvpFREE for any political, religious, or smoking
vs. non-smoking discussions. Non-partisan status reports
about smoking and non-smoking availability in casinos are OK
on vpFREE.

14. If you have Yahoo administrative problems, send a
private email to the Administrator, after you have checked
the vpFREE Yahoo! Administrative Problems Directory.

15. Let the Administrator do the administrating. Send any
comments, questions, suggestions or disagreements about
vpFREE policies or procedures to the Administrator via
private email or post them on FREEvpFREE.

[vpFREE] Re: ADVANTAGE SLOTS

 

Quick Strike is a Konami machine rather than IGT vision series.
Just wondering if the "LCBS" is generic or only IGT?
I find the most interesting aspect on this series is you did this
from afar using the power of internet.

I have seen these machines with devotees banging away for hours and taking the machine out of service for 2 hours/time x 4 times/day. Attracted my attention. Went down at 5:00 a.m. to check it out.

At 7:00, his S.O. came down and two of the three machines in the bank were taken by my wife and myself. She called him and says his machine is occupied; there's one left open and she sat there for a half hour until he came down. Shortly after we left having hit the mini-jackpot at >$47.33 and went back to work on the FPVP :-).

Powerful information and fun youtube links.
