I don't know anybody who believes I'm any kind of king of anything. Certainly I don't believe that. I do believe that I could survive gamblng in Montana if I had to --- but I'm also glad that I've found a niche where I can survive gambling without cold winters. I send along good wishes to Mick. May he continue to succeed. And may the rest of you find your own successful niches as well. Happy holidays. Bob

[vpFREE] Ernie Moody for HOF

He [Liam Daily] was a very private guy and few people here ever met him, other than me.For that reason, I don't think he will ever get the 33% of the votes required and a vote for him is "wasted" because he can't possibly be elected.......That is why I'm voting for Ernie Moody, who invented Triple Play. We all KNOW what he did and it affected all of our playing careers.
My response:
I agree with Bob and just changed my vote. I'm now voting for Ernie Moody because
#1 Of all the nominees he has been the most beneficial to me personally because he invented multi line video poker.
#2 He is the strongest nominee and is the most likely to get the required 33% of the votes to be elected.
Don't waste your vote by voting for someone who is a long shot. If you've already voted, you can change your vote.

You must have stayed at the Super 8. I used to stay there but I get a better deal down the street at the Motel 6 these days. The Montana Clubs are a relatively new chain outfit. Besides Kalispell, they have two stores in Missoula, one in Butte, and they just opened one in Great Falls. They're a slightly upscale restaurant/bar/casino operation.
The one in Kalispell sits on the site of the old Sawbucks, a dilapted old restaurant/bar/casino. But they had a 5 to 30 spread-limit holdem game. It was the biggest daily cash game in the state for years. I used to sit in the game. One of the regulars in the game was Ray Zee, a published poker writer through 2 + 2 Publishing. Zee wrote about Stud Hi-Lo and Omaha Hi-Lo. Even Doyle Brunson would occasionally sit in the game just to visit with his old friend Zee. Although I was never there when Doyle showed up. I sure would have liked to have met him. Doyle has a summer home just south of Kalispell in a little bitty berg called Dayton on Flathead Lake. Chip Reese had a place there too before he died.
A couple of years ago the Montana Club bought Sawbucks. They knocked it down and built a very nice building. They don't do poker so the game moved to Big Fork.
The slot attendent at the Montana Club wasn't hovering over you because she was suspicious of anything. Like most slot attendents in this state she was trained to give excellent service. I usually don't make it ten feet inside the door before I'm being asked what I want to drink. They ply you with snacks and other things too. The one thing I really like is when a player leaves a machine the attendent quickly sprays it with disenfectant and wipes it down.

[vpFREE] Re: Montana AP Life
I've been to Montana a couple of times. This past Summer I went to Kalispell where I stayed while visiting Glacier National Park. I stayed across the street from the Montana Club which is a steakhouse with a casino in the back. Just so people know the machine area is small and there is an attendant that hovers over you. I imagine this is the case in many of casinos. When you start checking machines they ask can they help you. I guess if your a local like Mickey it's easier because they see you all the time. They know if your a local or outsider. The casinos are spread out and all over the place. He's right about the weather. I was in West Yellowstone, MT in mid May 12 years ago and the temperature was near zero at night. It's a beautiful state and I can't think of a better place to spend a Summer. The Winter is a whole other story.

But what if it's a three-way game. Like six-spot progressive with a bonus round involved. What if, after you punch in your six-spot and start playing, the machine makes 7 picks every game. You have to hit at least four out of the seven machines picks plus a pay in your six-spot to get into the bonus round. Guess what, you ain't going to run to the Wiz to figure it out.

But who's going to tell you how many permutations make 4/7 with 3/6, 4/6, 5/6, 6/6? Who's going to tell you how many permutations make 5/7 with 3/6, 4/6, 5/6, 6/6? Who's going to tell how how many permutations make 6/7 with 3/6, 4/6, 5/6, 6/6., etc., so you can figure out the frequency for getting into the bonus round? Your just gonna have to sit down with a calculator and a notepad and figure it out yourself. That is, if you know how to do it.

Re: [vpFREE] Station Casinos
I got a reply from tech support saying they're aware of the problem, working on it, and they'll get back to me when it's fixed.

Anyone else having trouble logging into their Station Casino account online? I received 5 emails from them last night. Then tried to log in, message said my boarding pass number was not valid. I know I used the correct account number, but no luck.
