Hey all,
When I was at the Palms last April, I saw a woman sitting at what I
believe was the Loose Deuces machines who had at least that many
points on her card and was COMPLETELY blown away (being a novice VP
player myself). At 400 points per dollar, that's over 4 grand's worth
of comp points. Looking back I feel safe in assuming that that same
woman must be a frequenter of this message board. Any one care
to 'fess up?
Thanks,
Mike
Dude, I assure you, it's not a record. Check out some of the totals in
high limit or on the $1-$2-$5 denom 3/5-line.

I know players who have 4,5, and even 10 times that many. Some are on this list; many are not - they are too busy playing to read Internet lists!!!!

I recently posted this on the VPfree new england message boards:
Was down at MS friday for the afternoon and witnessed something that I
thought was amazing: I was walking around the sky casino and came upon
a gentleman playing Tpiple Play DDB (i think). He was betting 30
credits per line for a total bet of 90 credits...this was a quarter
machine. I figured I'd watch him for a while, and see how he did.
After watching 4 or 5 spins, he gets dealt 4 aces....he holds all and
gets no kickers on the draw, but does win 12000 credits for each line
for a hand pay of $9000.00. My girlfriend and I congratulate him, he
thanks us and tells us he had been down several thousand dollars and
was now about even. Now for the amazing part (at least to us), he
tells us he needs to check his point balance and asks if we "want to
see how many points he has?". Before we even answer, he presses the
Promo button on the machine and his balance scrolls
across.......seventy two thousand, five hundred and something dollars.
I asked my girlfriend if she was seeing what I was seeing....she was.
We congratulated him again and walked away, speechless.
* at $180.00 coin in equaling $1 in points....somewhere around $13
million coin in.

A large total, but not unique. Before the points were downgraded, $5
PE (99.9% game) paid 1 point for $90. If one played 1000 hands an
hr. thats 278 pts per hour. There were higher games such as $10 PE
and 3/5 $5 SAs. Points couldn't be converted to cash, but certain
players bought multiple Rolexes, gold coins, events tickets, etc.,
and resold them for cash. Unfortunately, the casino has wised up to
this.
