[vpFREE] Vegas "High Roller" tickets

 

The new Ferris wheel behind the Quad is now open. Tickets can be purchased online or onside. $25 for the daytime and $35 for night, or pay more for a flexi ticket or to skip the line. Wonder if diamond and 7 star members have their own line.

[vpFREE] Re: Dream card BP

 

re Dream Card -- I'll also chime in on the same note ... if high variance is your drug, you'll enjoy the game.  Otherwise, it's not a prudent choice from a bankroll perspective.

The game requires 2x the wager compared with the base game equivalent, and only offers a very tiny incremental increase in return.  Meanwhile, it hikes variance considerably.

It puts 8/5 bp into the risk turf of ddb, by concentrating 9% of the game return into just the rf and quad aces hits (15% if you lump in the low bonus quads).  As long as the machine hits "on expectation", it'll be an exciting game, given the much higher hit frequency.  However, during even modest droughts, I see the game as inducing quite a bit of pain.

In short, I look for much stronger returns in my play before accepting this type of bankroll risk.  But I expect this game has a particularly strong "entertainment" payback.

Re: [vpFREE] Dream card BP

 

Strategy is no different. You pay double per hand ($7.50 per deal of 25c triple play). About half the time (in BP, it varies by game), you will get dealt your first four cards and then the machine will pause and say "dream card" and fill in the best possible 5th card.

So if you have trips in the first four cards, instant quad. RF3? Instant RF4. Etc.

Game has a well known glitch and doesn't recognize a pair of 4s as superior to a pair of 5-10s. So you have to manually change it when you get dealt hands like 4-6-7-9-DC. The machine will pair the 9 even though the 4s are a superior pair. No such glitch with 2s or 3s and it converts pairs to trips just fine. 

Royal Flush cycle is under 8500. And I've hit several royals on those machines including dealt DC triples. But the variance can be brutal. Good luck.

I have an upcoming trip to Harrah's Southern California and was just checking out the best games. I have never played dream card before. Any suggestions on strategy? I'm not even sure how this game works.

[vpFREE] 100 play at Ceasars

 

As I recall, last year there used to be a 100 play vp machine at Caesars Palace in Vegas in the high limit area. 

Does anyone know what JOB is available on this machine. I'm assuming it does not have 9/6 on it, but may have 9/5. 
Also,what denomination is it, I'm assuming it is $1. 
Is anyone familiar with this machine?

Thanks, Tim

[vpFREE] Changes at the Majestic Star 2 - Gary IN

 

For now, this looks like good news!

Eight 25c/50c/$1 single line games have been added each with twelve different full-pay or near full pay games at all denoms.
One weird thing is that these games have both 8-5 bonus and 8-5 ACE$ (The latter is the same game with four ordered aces paying 4000.) and 9-6 DDB and 9-6 DDB+ (Here the latter game pays 400 for quad fives through kings if the kicker is an ace.) I am not sure if the 18-7 Joker kings+ pay 4000 or 4700 for the royal. If anybody from the group gets there before Wednesday, could you please let me know.

Also downstairs are two All-Star II games that have 25c STP 10-6-5 DB. No other good games of any kind on those machines. I believe there will (are) more of these machines going into the main room (Possibly where the two Ultimate X machines were.) I will check again on Wednesday.

As a non-smoker it is good to know I can play something without choking on cigarette smoke!

The database has been updated.

[vpFREE] Re: XVP -- rental cars

 

The MasterCard paid ALL damages.  Brother-in-law considered himself lucky to only have to pay me the $250.  I learned a valuable lesson from this experience.  Even though I did not make the reservation.  Even though I was never a driver of the vehicle;  because I used my credit card, I was the responsible person.  I just assumed that brother-in-law had auto insurance that covered rental cars, who doesn't?  Well he didn't so I was the one on the hook to solve the problem.  Took three months of phone calls and letter writing but eventually I was off the hook.  Never again!

[vpFREE] Re: XVP -- rental cars

 

Fifteen years ago I rented a vehicle for my brother-in-law who didn't have a credit card at the time of rental.  He proceeded to wreck the vehicle.  MY credit card was charged just over $4,000.  MasterCard settled the claim and paid all but $250 which was the loss of use.  The rental car agency wouldn't give them proof of loss of use so they refused to pay.  The credit card company charged me for that part of the bill.  And yes, the rental agency charged something like $65 a day loss of use for a compact car.
