Re: [vpFREE] New Machine Setting for $1200 Jackpot

 

I've encountered this with both makers of ETG craps in the last few months, despite having been told by knowledgeable sources that the aggregate result applies to the threshold (in other words $600 wager + $600 win = $1200 W2G).


Maybe there was some regulatory clarification by the IRS and the ETG makers no longer have to do it the old way?

I occasionally play video 21. Generally I play less than $300 per hand as a win on a double down or split can result in a $600 win for $600 bet and results in a $1200 W-2 G. In the past few months, I have run into some new Interblock machines where the base bet is not included in the "win" return. In the above situation a $600 win and the returned $600 bet does not generate a W-2G jackpot. I have seen these in California and Las Vegas so they must be acceptable in both jurisdictions.

Bob and Richard were talking on a recent show about how base bets are not removed from total win. Since it is apparently acceptable for video 21 machines, hopefully manufacturers will bring this to video poker where it is commonly an issue, especially with higher denomination play.

I read about this Cherokee play with some interest. Funny what you can find in out of the way places, the kind of places I hang out in these days. I found 50 Cent and $1 NSUD and 9/6 Jacks progs., .5% meter at Winstar in Thackerville, Oklahoma. I'm not really concentrating on video poker anymore as there is better money in other things.

I ran a 12K wager just to see what they would send me. Ever since they have been sending me 3 two-day hotel packages a month with freeplay. I don't use them all but but will use one when I'm in the area. And I try to time it where I can run two packages back to back if I want to.  This has to do with whether In find a big number in the progs or not.

They are located in the London and Rome bartops. When I get there I have two shots at finding a good number at the 50 Cent level and two shots of finding a good number in the $1 level.

The freeplay is tricky to figure out.  The hotel room and freeplay offers come in two separate mailers with their own dates so it can be hard to match up. But I always get more freeplay than what the mailers say. For some reason that $50 in freeplay in the mail turns into $200 when I get there.

I have a few other spots with this same set up but am not willing to divulge the locations at this time. I get treated better in these spots than anything Nevada has to offer me.

Actually this proposal does not "eliminate Resort Fees", but instead requires upfront disclosure to the customer of the full room rate including any fees.
