I said I stayed at the GN I didn't say I gambled there. I never gambled at all at the GN. True there is nothing to play. I played at Four Queens, El Cortez (a lady had the single DDW machine tied up) and pickum at the Freemont. I was disappointed that the Golden Gate didn't have $5 BJ. i really like the place but don't feel comfortable playing $10 a hand.
As far as picking another game, I'm playing the one that gives me the best EV. I'm just going to hang in there and hope I get lucky. BTW the last Royal was on a Texas Holdem machine at Binions. Went back to play the next time and they took them out. I ended up buying them. Have one in my basement now.
I'm going to put it up for sale soon, I doubt if there is another one in existence.

Don't take offense but did you notice that after all your complaining about the Palms that Golden Nugget doesn't have a single machine under $25 a spin over 99.17%?
Personally I'll take the Palms over GN 100 days out of 100. Hell, I'll take the 4 Queens next door over GN 100 days out of 100.

When we got there on Monday afternoon as soon as I put my card in it said "Welcome Guest". I thought I'd lost all my points. I went pissed to the Club and saw a sign saying the computers were down and a lady said I still had the points. Well, i started playing and after a while we decided to cash out and go to dinner at the 24/7 cafe. It required a person to come pay us and then she put the machine "Out of Service". I noticed that every time someone was paid they put the machine out of order.At check in they refused the 50% Pallms coupon so I decided to use it at the cafe on their prime rib. The lady wouldn't take it there either as she said the Prime rib was a special and couldn't be used.We went back to the FPDW bank and noticed all the machines were OOS. There was nothing to play that was full pay. I went to the room and complained to the Hotel and asked to be comped because all the machines were down.She said no comp would be offered and put me through to gaming and the gaming mgr said there were machines still available. I explained to him what full pay was and he was clueless. I called GN and they said they would extend the rate I had and we chose to check out early. At check out they did take the coupon.I tried the $20 trick upgrade at checkin at the Palms to no avail.I think I'm through with the Palms as it seemed no one was concerned about your happiness.The Red Rock sent me free rooms for December, but so far nothing for Jan when we are coming again.I hit Dueces once, but never drew on 4 to a Royal and the drought continues since 1995.
