[vpFREE] Bankroll Question

 

Hoping I can get a "back of the envelope" guess on this from someone.

What sort of bankroll (measured in Royals) would I need to be comfortable playing Spin Poker NSUD with 0.8% cash back? Assume minimal errors (99.95% of EV captured). I know I need less bankroll for SP than comparable per spin single-line wagers. Four royals? Five? Seven? Two APs I've asked ballparked it at five royals but I know some of the folks here can calculate Mars rocket trajectories on their fingers.

Thanks in advance.

Someone just reported to vpFREE2.com that they couldn't find
any of the good games that used to be at the former Hacienda,
now the Hoover Dam Lodge.

I don't see any way to log into your account on the South Point website either. I find that very useful when it is available on other casinos' websites.

P.S. South Point doesn't have tiered card levels. Everyone gets the same card.

[vpFREE] RE: Route 66 Casino

 

The VP is abysmal, maybe 8/5 JOB, 6/5 BP, but they have a couple of good restaurants.  The combo steakhouse/cantina was good. I think there's a Johnny Rockets too and maybe a buffet?  We didn't stay in a room, camped out in their parking lot in our motorhome, so I can't comment about the hotel.  OK for an overnight but that's about it.

RE: [vpFREE] Re: The "tool box" for pros in 2014?

 

That's the same math I'm using but 1000 hands/hour is that possible??? That's one of the higher estimates I've heard and 900 seems to be really,really fast territory - 1000 at FPDW seems impossible. Or am I wrong.



Each person's highest-accurate speed is different. 1000 hph at FPDW is definitely possible at Palms for fast players. It's probably impossible at Sam's Town where they slow the machine.

Don't worry about that. For a high percentage of players, playing as fast as possible introduces several additional errors per hour. Rather than go as fast as possible, it's smarter to go as fast as you can WITHOUT MAKING MISTAKES. For some players that means 400 hph.

So yes, 1000 hph is possible for some players at some casinos, it's not a sensible goal for most player.

[vpFREE] No. Mail

 

Hi Gang:
I've read a lot of posts recently that discuss being no-mailed by CZR properties. I want to relate what happened to me.
After not receiving any mail from Harrah's AC (our home property) for two months at the end of 2013, I spoke to my host and asked him what was going on. He said he would look into it. He called me the next day and told me that for some unknown reason my account had been coded as "undeliverable mail."
He said there was some kind of computer glitch that had affected 90,000 CZR players nationwide who also had their accounts coded incorrectly. He then contacted the regional director of marketing on my behalf and they decided to drop freeplay into my account to make up for the offers I missed. They also made up for lost food comps in other ways. He said my mail offers would begin again in February.
My point is, just don't assume you've been flagged as an "advantage player" and put on some mysterious "no mail list" if you suddenly stop receiving mailed offers. It may be a mistake or some other glitch. Computers are capable of foul-ups. Follow Jean Scott's advice: ASK!
Regards.
CoachVee and Hedy
