I'd actually prefer they'd offer Guaranteed Play in Triple Double. If
you understand why, go directly to the head of the class.

Private email to DrainBramage:
First of all I'd like to thank my friend Drain for providing this secret
remail service so we can get the facts out to vpFree'ers.
Second of all I see a dangerous shift in the tone of Guaranteed Play
responses. We are swinging toward the, "Let's all help Stations work through this."
kinda thingie.
Don't ask me for a Third of all or Thridly. Nobody in my family has that
much depth of thought. Maybe if we would have embraced Sklansky's Theory Of
Poker book we'd be able to imagine what they are thinking we are thinking that
they are thinking of us BTW, I heard the only song Paladin plays through his
airport grade head phones while playing video poker is The Highwaymen a song
about dead bad guys who have come back to life to smoke grass and be in a
recording studio for five days. "... The bastards hung me in the spring of
twenty-five... but I am still alive..."
Now. I have no idea why Triple Double would be cool so I'm at the back of
the class. Maybe it's something that would set the Guaranteed Play machines on
fire and burn those suckers down but only after Paladin and his gang have
robbed the place.
Guaranteed Play, or as some spell it Guarenteed Play. I think the major
mistake Stations made was to not realize 99.99% of their customers, the ones who
eat the free buffet then exit to the casino barely able to bring their hands
around to pat their distended stomachs and say, "Oh I don't know... I think
I'll gamble," take one look at the offer, "200 guaranteed hands for $100" and
say to themselves. "Wait, whoa... they want me to play only 200 hands then put
in another $100 for another 200 hands? I could go to a regular machine and
put in a hundred and maybe play for an hour. I'm not sure of how many hands
that would be... maybe 400... 600... maybe all night on one hundred dollar
bill. By then I will have hit a couple of Royals, my food will have digested so
that I'd be able to walk to my car, drive to Treasure Island, slay some
dragons, kill some pirates and get me some Sirens."
OK. The jux of my post [I heard somebody on TV use that word, "jux" but I
don't know how to spell it or what the word means. Harry Porter are you reading
this? Help me out.] is... soon all Stations will have only one bank of
advantage machines, each with a chain link cage surrounding them, a couple of AP's
inside grinding away and a big sign on the outside. "THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN YOU TAKE VIDEO POKER TOO SERIOUSLY" Actually they are beginning that at
Boulder. Notice the bank of six NSU quarter five plays [3 of them are NSU] are
isolated near the main entrance. Some of the games show the progressive
meter, some don't. The progressive sign is removed from on top to make room for
the chain link cage. Take up Hold'em everybody. Go to any big supermarket slap
in $100 via Money Gram to PokerStars.com and you're off and running. Or do
like a gal in Norway did. "annette_15" won a few bucks on freerolls then
parlayed that into recently winning a live tourney in London for over $2,000,000.
All by age 17. Yes, I've offered her my hand in marriage.
Signed, Bill Fader in New Jersey
