Jacks or better is the only worthwhile game on Harrah's Fast Action. 6-5 but when you add the dealt quads and royals it gets a lot better. If all five progressives are minimum the base is 97.8% With the progressives where they were Saturday the game is about 100.5% but it has an astronomical variance. All other games are almost 2% or more worse because the gain for a dealt quad is less versus the higher value in DDB, or DB. On deuces the base game is the 94.91% version but is lowered further by only paying 800 on deuces so that the progressive for dealt twos, threes or fours is higher than the 4 deuce value in DW. How are you and Ginni doing?

I had the lowest score in my session of the slot tournament but not low
enough to win the booby prize. Lost almost $200 at MS but went over to
Harrah's EC with my mom to play the Fast Action. Before yesterday I had
never been dealt a quad on that game but it happened twice in my 40 minutes
of play . One set of nines and a set of fours. The fours did not have a low
card with them and the 60-1 shot did not occur on the draw. Still the win of
$960 on that game was not hard to take! With the dealt royal at about $34k
and dealt aces + low at about $9100 this game was barely positive. (My fours
reset that progressive from $738 back to $600.)

Subject: [vpFREE_Chicago] anyone win in the MS slot tournament?Other than tendonitis I have nothing to show for my participation.
My plan was to grind Multi-Strike afterwards and then hit Hi/Lo Omaha
in Trump's poker room. I was given bad info at Trumps in the morning,
the Hi/Lo Omaha gets going around 4pm not in the evening as they told
me. As a result I showed up after a waiting list had already formed.
Rather than twiddling my thumbs at Trumps I returned to MS only to
find all my favorite Multi-Strike machines occupied. I ended up
playing 100 play BDLX and $.25 5 play NSUD. Both were profitable.
Later the Multi-Strike machines freed up and added to my profit for
the day. My first significant vp win in quite a while (with no multi
points promotion going on either). 'Guess I won't have to summon the
gaming board just yet.Why was it so busy today? Was this all spillover from the slots
tournament or is it usually busy on Saturdays?vpFREE Links: http://members.cox.net/vpfree/Links.htm
