[vpFREE] Re: Two Nevada Casino Hustler's in the Outback

 

An hour into the play and the meter was up to $297. Two hours into the play, about a cycle, and she hadn't come off. And the meter was up to $340. Three hours into the play the meter was up to $377. And we weren't catching our average for 3 out of 5, and 4 out of 5. We were getting dropped bigtime. I looked down at the dwindling fives on the table.

"Hey, Al"
"Yeah, what?"
"We're about out of fives. If she can't fish them out of the machine you're gonna have to go to the bank and buy some fives."
"I got $2000 in fives in the trunk of the car."

I thought for a few seconds

"Hey, Al."
"Yeah, what?"
"What the hell are you doing with $2000 in fives in the trunk of your car?
"Don't ask, idiot." All of a sudden the screen on Al's machine exploded in colors. Al had hit the five-spot. The ticket cashed for $393. I looked down at the three fives on the table. I had five dollars in credits. We had won a grand total of $13.

"You're gonna have to stiff her for the tip."
"Yeah, I know" Al said.
"How'd ya'll boahs do" she asked as we approached the bar.
"Maghta fahn, ma'am, maghta fahn" Al said. "We wonned thirteen dollahs."
"Well, ahm sa glad ya'll boahs wun" she said as she cashed the ticket. "Gonna try yur luck agin?"
"No, ma'am. We's a late fer gittin inta Cut Bank."
"Well, ya'll boahs stop in an se us agin."
"Yes, ma'am. An ya'll cum se us tooo."

"I get the extra dollar. You got it last time" I said as we climbed in the car.
"Yeah, yeah. Looks like we clipped this town for $10 after expenses. And now it's on to Cut Bank, where I'm sure we ought be able to make 15 or twenty dollars. Hey! Wait a minute! Did you check to see where that meter reset?
"Yeah. It reset at $100."
"With the ten percent meter where does that put the game?"
"A 1.2% advantage. It's got a huge hourly rate. About $2.25 an hour per machine. Do you think we ought stay here and tag it?" I said facetiously.
"Cut Bank here we come" said Al.

[vpFREE] Two Nevada Casino Hustler's in the Outback

 

The next morning, after breakfast at the truck stop, we pulled up to the little rundown bar/casino at eleven o'clock sharp.

"How ya'll boahs doin?" we heard as we entered.
"Oh, no! Looks like we got us an old Missouri barroom queeen on the day shift" I whispered to Al.

She was straight out of the 1950's. She had to be in her late sixties, blond bouffant hair-do, wearing more makeup than Tammy Faye Baker. Al and I were southern boys. But we had been out of the south for decades. Neither of us spoke with a southern accent. That is, unless we wanted to.

"Maghta fahn, ma,am. Maghta fahn" Al said. "And hah ya'll doin?"
"Ahm maghta fahn, masef" she quipped. "What kin ah git yoo boahs to drank?"
"Black coffa, ma'am" I said. "Maghta fahn mornin' ain't it?"
"Balck coffa fer me tooo, ma'am" Al said.
"We were a figurin' to do sum gamblin' this mornin', ma'am" I said.
"Well, hep yosefs, boahs. The machins er raght over thar. Where ya'll boahs frum?"

"Arkinsaw" said Al.
"Missasippa" I responeded.
"Ahm frum Texis" she said proudly. Nace ta meet yooo boahs."

Al and I stepped over to the two old clunkers. They were retrofit with bill acceptors on their sides. The machines in Montana don't take hundreds so we both pulled out wads of twenties. I stuck one in the bill acceptor. It pulled the bill in, then a few seconds later spit it out. I turned the bill a round and tried again. No luck. I grabbed another twenty off my roll and tried again. No luck. I looked over at Al. He was having the same problem.

"Ahm sorra, boahs" we heard from behind. "These two ol' machins only tek fahvs. And they only tek the ol' fahvs." I looked over at Al.
"Well, ma'am, do ya happen to have eny ol' fahvs?" I asked.
"Shore do, boahs. Ah got bout foah hunnert in ol' fahvs if ya'll won't eny."
"We'll tek the hole foah hunnert, ma'am" Al exclaimed.

She went to fetch the fives. When she returned we gave her four hundred dollars bills, took the fives and threw them on the table between the machines, then went to work. I slapped a five into the acceptor. It took about thirty seconds for the bill to take and the credits to rack up. I punched in five numbers, hit the start button and heard boop....boop....boop. The damn game was slower than molasses. I looked at my wristwatch and counted games.

"Damn, Al. We're gonna be here all day. I'm only doing about 7 games a minute."
"Me too, dammit! That's about two hours seat time, ain't it?"
"Yeah, per cycle. Better hope we don't get stretched out for two or three cycles. We'll be here until tomorow."
"Hey, hold it!" Al stammered. "That meter is zinging! It ain't no half percent meter!"
"Stop and I'll clock it." I responed

I hit the start button and the meter flipped a nickel. I hit the start button again and it flipped another nickel. Hit it again and the meter flipped a nickel.
"Damn, Al. "This game's got a ten percent meter. That explains why the number is so high."
"I wonder where it's gonna reset"
"Yeah, me too." We got back to work.

Next post....

[vpFREE] Re: Can this be done using the $500 food credit on 7* trip in Las Vegas

 

The Caesars Bacchanal Buffet is available with the Buffet of Buffets pass, but they charge an extra $15 per visit (just like they do with the Rio's Village Seafood Buffet).

The front desk could question the charge because all your doing with the food credit is charging it to your room. I imagine they could say buying a buffet pass is not permitted because the food credit is only good at the casino your staying that. I have heard at some Caesars Entertainment properties that they just add 50,000 RC's to your account when you take your 7* trip. That would be amazing if they did that in Las Vegas as you could use your points for anything or just bank them to buy things in the store or catalog.
