Thanks for the extra info. I think we'll take advantage of their free night and look around for something to play.

Note the 7/5 DDB is a progressive, and a multiway progressive at that. When I stopped there for the "Race to Rewards" last summer, the Royal was at about $1900 I think and Aces w/kicker was about $700. There were other meters as well, but I don't recall them being super high. But these two values alone would make the game 98.8%. The bank was pretty busy, not surprisingly. I took a $40 crack and lost. :(
But if the meters are all too low to be playable, I am pretty sure I played a little 8/5 DDB w/Super Times Pay (97.06% w/STP bet). Or at least I recall noticing that because I thought: Well, at least the base pays on this game are higher than the base of the progressive.
Unfortunately, VP is definitely weak there overall. The best thing about the place, imo, is that you can't smoke in the casino.

I understand their pay tables are awful. VPFREE2 shows just 1 DDB game with a 7/5 paytable. Does anyone know what else they might have at the quarter level? We normally play DDB but we are used to 9/6 or even 9/5 but not 7/5 which is worse than terrible. Any info on other games would be appreciated.
