Hi Gang:
During our recent visit to Tunica, Hedy and I did the bulk of our play at the Roadhouse, which features 24 machines with five games that return over 99.9 per cent. We did very little play at the Horseshoe next door (where we stayed in a beautiful suite, BTW) but we did have a lot of fun playing a game there called Build-A-Wheel poker. It featured a wheel above the normal screen that was divided into eight sections. Two of the sections (or pieces of a pie) were filled in already when you began to play. One pre-filled section had a 4,000-coin bonus and the other had a random number, something like 1,365 or 1,335. Every time you were dealt 3-of-a-kind or better another section of the wheel filled in. When all eight sections were completed, the wheel would spin and you would get whatever bonus was in the section the wheel landed on.

Looks like a short term advantage play if you find a machine with enough blanks filled in. I would love to analyze the game.

Re: [vpFREE] Tipping

 

If I play at the place all the time they might get as much as 2%. I could care less about the folks who bring the hand pay. The bartender works hard for his money, and they will take great care of you if you don't come across sas "cheap" to them.

Sure, "JIHAD!" is a great name for a band,but I wish I had thought about airport security before getting the tattoo.

I like to buy women a lot of drinks,not so much to lessen their inhibitions as to lower their standards.
