Inventory reduction. There is only one Super Times Pay Bonus Poker machine and one machine with Triple/Five Play Bonus Poker remaining in the gift shop area. Not 3 each as listed in database.

Thanks for this heads-up about video poker downgrades at Horseshoe
Hammond, but no one has submitted a database update for this casino in
a long time. Here's what's there now:
http://www.vpfree2.com/casino/horseshoe-hammond
If anyone has specific info about the games/denominations listed in
vpFREE2 that should be changed, you can post them here or submit them
on vpFREE2 by using the "Send Us an Update" tab. Or you can send them
to me privately and I will make sure they get done.

In September of 2015 a lady playing a $5 10 play VP machine in the high limit room at Horseshoe Hammond was dealt a royal with a 4x multiplier for $800,000. Since then just about all vp tables in all denominations have been reduced.

Subject: [vpFREE] Re: Million dollar video poker hit
You know, my first thought was that this probably wasn't legit, but then I thought "why would someone go through all the trouble to stage it?". I don't know anything about machine test modes so I guess it is possible to cause a royal flush to appear on the screen but why make it a $20 machine ( uncommon) and why play 79 coins ( uncommon)? It was one of those "Hard to believe so it must be true" stories.
Well, I will go back to Huck Seed's approximately $647,000 royal as the biggest hit I have heard.

NVGC is such a scam. Did you know it would cost several million dollars to get approval for an unrestricted gaming license in 2016? That's not even including bribes.
Regulatory capture at its finest.

Looking at the agenda for the March Gaming Control Board meeting, I see that Nevada Restaurant Services has applied for a gaming license at the former locations of both the Opera House and My Casino. Both of these closed last year. Apparently My Casino will be Boulder Lodge Casino and the Opera House will be a Dotty's.
I sometimes find items of interest on Nevada Gaming's website. Here's a link to their March agenda:

Note that there is no casino noise in the background. Also note that
the same YouTube user, "gulliblewhitepeople", posted an earlier video
of quad aces, with the title "jackpot on a friends home machine",
which appears to be the same machine. I don't think this dude got
paid a million dollars. Maybe Monopoly dollars. :)

Seems pretty brutal that you are betting 79 coins and $1580 a hand and that doesn't get you the full payout on the royal.

The Lakeside suites at Harvey's are the closest to the Lake and have balconies. Highly recommended!

Planning our first trip to Lake Tahoe. Is there much of a difference between Harrah's and Harvey's? If we are looking for a suite with a view of the lake, which would be our best bet? We appreciate any other tips as well!

We'll be interviewing Bob Nersesian about his new book this Tuesday on GWAE. Although we have more questions than we can currently ask, if someone suggests a "better" question, we'll find room for it.
