I want everything, but I settle for whatever I can get.

That is very well written and well explained Albert. Finally a video poker
player who does not have the I want, I deserve, I am entitled to attitude
that is so often displayed. As if the sole purpose of the casino being in
business was to cater to the every whim of the advantage player.
I believe that a good approach is to take what you can get where you can
get it and if what you are offered is not good enough for you, then move on
to greener, or at least potentially greener, pastures.

It's probably as random as a slot machine. In a slot machine what you end
up with on a spin is as random as a computer can make it. That of course
does not mean that all outcomes have an equal chance of showing up, there are
many more non paying combinations than paying combinations.
The Boyd promotion can be set up as follows.
The computer program for this feature has let's say 1,000 individual
multiplier numbers, and they consist of 700 3x multipliers 200 4x multipliers,
90 10x multipliers and 10 50x multipliers. You swipe your card and the
system picks 6 symbols totally at random from the 1,000 in the table, you then
pick one of the 6 symbols. Odds are kind of high that you will always get a
3x or a 4x, but you do have a shot at the 50x and some people will hit it.
The game is totally legitimate in this scenario and totally random. All
slot machines work the same way. To expect better from a casino is not really
a realistic expectation. For myself I'd rather just see them give
everybody the same multiplier and get rid of the B.S., but my guess is that the
majority of customers prefer the element of chance.

The assumption that the point multipiers are randomly assigned is a very
important issue here. The answer is in the game presented itself. The screen
shows 6 boxes that you can select any one of, it certainly appears that
which box you select matters and is a part of the game. If the choices are
put into the boxes before you select then you would expect a 1 in 6 chance
to get each choice. If what you get is pre determined then the game is a
sham...the game is really a scratch off ticket and the entire pretext of your
choice is meaningless. The fact is that the game appears as a game of
chance, one you have invested time, energy, and money to come and play. It seems
deciteful to me for it to be anything but a true game of chance. Of note,
on thursday Suncoast has a similar promotion that everyone can qualify for
and is advertised as up to 50x points just like YAH days. When you push the
button for your multiplier you just are assigned that multiplier, no
choosing boxes requir ed. Why are the 2 promotions handled differently?
