According to Nudge, he had witnessed several times over a few weeks that same machine get stuck in ticket jam mode, but he chose to use it anyway. He therefore forfeits all his rights to making long internet rants about said machine or about poor service resulting from said machine or the lack thereof. My decision is final.

[vpFREE] Four deuces on a progressive

 

Last week my husband and I were playing quarter machines that had a progressive on the RF and on four Deuces. He was dealt four 2's within 20 minutes and collected $1558. I don't know how the progressive got that high b/c it usually creeps along at a snails pace and not many people play it b/c that it is the only game on that particular progressive meter. All the other games on the machine are linked into a different meter.


So my question is: what is the highest payout for four 2's that you've ever seen (or hit) on a quarter machine?

Ok, so I stand corrected. You're not a professional player, you're a proficient player. I apologize.

Now, wtf, does a proficient player, want to stand in the middle of his own personal pumpkin patch, complaining about the color orange?

----------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Top,
Is it possible that I could have accidentally run over your dog? Have I tried to hit on your wife or call your mom a nasty name? Where does your opinion of me come from? I am not so good at what seems to be some kind of metaphor, but my pumpkin flavor feeling is blasé at best, however I have made some tasty dishes using pumpkin squash. I have heard that in this highly advanced 21st century we live in, that orange is the new black. I hate to interrupt your derailed train of thought, but do you have anything to add regarding my subject line, customer service at Sam's Town, or any casino for that matter?

Mr. Top,
I hate to disappoint you, but my living was made a long long time ago. I worked for 28 years in the automotive wholesale parts business, mainly in transmission and driveline parts. I retired in 1998 at the ripe old age of 47. I worked for five different companies and made them a boatload of money, and a nice share for me. Due to extensive sales training and graduating at the top of my class at the Dale Carnegie Institute, I was able to do my job better than most in my business. One of the main reason was that I had the ability to quickly determine what was important to the buyers at my clients shops, and their families, and use it to my advantage. I find it strange that all five of the companies that I worked for went belly up at some point after I left them. I do believe that I have stated previously on this forum, that I am definitely not a professional player, but I am certainly a proficient one. What could you possibly think that you know about me that seemed to cause you to blurt out mostly fiction? I also believe that I have mentioned that when it comes to possible fame and fortune, I could care less about the first, and only want to get a little slice of the second to keep me close to even. Also, I have said many times, free food?, fat guy?,...You do the math!

No one is disagreeing that poor service is annoying. But the reason the freeplay was mentioned is to point out that Nudge is all take and no give. By playing it through on FPDW he is taking every iota of edge he can get, and STILL has enough wind left in his sail to post 10,000 words on the internet. The fact is, and he admits, is that Nudge has been making a living off of places like Sam's forever. So what's there to complain about? I can see a tourist or a losing slot player bitching about poor service, but not Nudge. Nudge is bitchng, apparently because it's his nature. And in my opinion this is INSANE, when one is making a living off of the game. Do you think that Sam's doesn't read VPFree? Nudge is lucky the welcome mat is still laid out for him. Does he understand the meaning of the phrase "under the radar"? And this rant was tame compared to his last beauty concerning the random mulitplier thingie and the way it treats him. That was a classic.

A person in Nudge's position should avoid the two FPDW machines like the plague. If he's smart. I don't know if he is, let's ask him.

Another thing that comes to mind is a few months ago he posted another 10,000 word treasure complaining about how he always gets 5X and 6X Wednesday multipliers while everyone else gets 30X and 50X. And it's just not fair.

Maybe now we know why he and his wife get such small multipliers. duh!

Kinda freaked out that some jumped on him about just running his free play through on the DW machines when he and his wife clearly played based on his statement above. He also said his wife likes to keep track of just the free play separately.


Did he really deserve to be skewered?

Re: [vpFREE] Zero Cust.. Ser. at Sam's Town LV

 

First of all, Count, R.I.F.. If you are old enough, you should realize that it stands for Reading Is Fundamental. You whiffed completely on understanding the content of this post. Let me cover a few points. First of all, the word free should rarely be associated with a casino to begin with. I used the term free play because it is the accepted phrase that our members will understand. Your "under no obligation" comment seems to indicate that you would recommend that players who are lucky enough to receive a mailer from a casino that is offering a miniscule portion of said casino's bankroll for a player to use, the player should decline. Is my assumption accurate? I may be wrong, but I think most of our members are aware of the term full "pay", but I am not sure they will know the meaning of full "play". I do fully concentrate when I play. I do fully enjoy it when I play, but I am not sure what a full play machine is. I am always eager to learn new things, so perhaps you would like to offer some of your extensive knowledge to all of us. You are mistaken about me doing nothing that day, and I touched on it in my post. I should clarify that when I stated that "after the wife and I were done playing" meant that our four hour play period was over, her on a $ jacks progressive, and me on a quarter 9-7 DB brain eater progressive. This was more a less a typical day for us, one of the 20 days we average playing out of every month of the year. We wind up doing just shy of a million dollars in play per year at Sam's Town. So, I guess I would have to politely disagree with the assertion that you made in your last sentence that I was doing nothing. Could you possibly fill our group members in on all that was offered to me by this casino? I would like to compare it to my copies of mailers stating what they did actually offer to determine if you are in fact, psychic. You seemed to indicate there are many ways casinos can offer many things. If you could be generous enough to share all of these ways that are possible for us to get goodies from a casino, I think it would be of great benefit to the group. I surely can't see anywhere in my post that I complained about getting a little slice of the casino's bankroll to use as my buy in, but I defer to your judgment there. I surely did think that the post was exactly related to my subject line, and totally focused on lack of customer service. Perhaps I am in error.

I feel like Peter Faulk as Colombo, for those of you old enough to remember
that show.

Now you had free play. This was free. You were under no obligation to take
part in what was being given to you for free. Then, you elected to play the
free play on a very good full play game. Then, after doing nothing other
than taking advantage of everything offered to you in every way possible,
you decided to complain about this on the forum. Is that accurate?

You're absolutely right. What casinos need is MORE customers like Nudge.

Sam's Town actually inconvenienced him while he makes his living picking their carcass like carrion. The nerve! He should demand an apology from them.

Re: Nudge on Sam's Town comment.

I understand and agree with Nudge's long comments, it had nothing to do with receiving Free Play but he was talking about the lack of Service in lieu of saving a few bucks….

When I was in Vegas the 3rd week of March, I took the free bus from Harrahs to Sam's Town, just so I could get to Boulder Station. I did not play at all in Sam's.
