[vpFREE] Re: WMS "My Poker" not looking so hot

 

Here's the link to the wizard's web page on this game:
http://wizardofodds.com/games/video-poker/winning-streak/

Shack also has a 6 minute you tube video linked.

T'is a fun video. All you got to do is watch the last couple of minutes because he doesn't get a "winning streak" until the end.
Shack calls the game boring. Looks frustrating to me.

Watching the video didn't even make my arms start to itch.

[vpFREE] Re: MLife Platinum ?

 

If you truly mean spend as opposed to wager, spending $1200 on rooms, dining, spa or entertainment options will get you 30,000 Tier if you are in Las Vegas. Mlife gives you 25 Tier per dollar spent in Las Vegas. It gives you less per dollar in its other markets.

I'm not going to get into expected costs since that will vary with a number of factors, but if you want to do it by gambling it would take:
$30,000 coin in on video poker.
$9,000 coin in on slots.
About 13.5 hours of $100/hand blackjack.

Take Care,
Mark
