Hello, I'm new to the forum and thought I'd share some recent
experiences I had on a game I am having trouble finding info on. Last
summer I was in the area of the Desert Diamond Casino south of Tucson,
Az and thought I'd stop in and play some vp. I'm not a real serious
player. I don't play very often and don't go to extra lengths to shop
pay tables. At the local casinos there isn't a whole lot of variety
anyway.

I sat down at a $1 Game King and played DW. After about 30 minutes I
realized the payout for four deuces was $3000.00. My memory was that
four deuces always payed $1000.00 so this surprised me. I believe the
pay table went something like 5/10/10/15/20/60/80/125/3000/4000 with a
max bet.

So naturally within 5 minutes of this realization I hit four deuces.
Within another 30 minutes I hit four deuces again on the machine next
to it. I left the casino a happy man that day.

I just figured that was a fluke but the next time I was in the area I
stopped in again and went straight to the same machines. In this
session I hit four deuces, moved to a second machine and hit a royal,
went to a third machine and hit four deuces again.

Obviously that couldn't continue but in my five visits since I have
hit the four deuces two more times, and one of those times I witnessed
a lady next to me hit the four deuces twice within an hour on the same
machine.

So can someone educate me on these particular vp machines. I've
looked at other casinos and can never find a $3000.00 payout like
these machines have.

Hello, I'm new to the forum and thought I'd share some recent
experiences I had on a game I am having trouble finding info on.

Last

summer I was in the area of the Desert Diamond Casino south of

Tucson,

Az and thought I'd stop in and play some vp. I'm not a real serious
player. I don't play very often and don't go to extra lengths to

shop

pay tables. At the local casinos there isn't a whole lot of variety
anyway.

I sat down at a $1 Game King and played DW. After about 30 minutes

I

realized the payout for four deuces was $3000.00. My memory was

that

four deuces always payed $1000.00 so this surprised me. I believe

the

pay table went something like 5/10/10/15/20/60/80/125/3000/4000

with a

max bet.

So naturally within 5 minutes of this realization I hit four

deuces.

Within another 30 minutes I hit four deuces again on the machine

to it. I left the casino a happy man that day.

I just figured that was a fluke but the next time I was in the area

I

stopped in again and went straight to the same machines. In this
session I hit four deuces, moved to a second machine and hit a

royal,

went to a third machine and hit four deuces again.

Obviously that couldn't continue but in my five visits since I have
hit the four deuces two more times, and one of those times I

witnessed

a lady next to me hit the four deuces twice within an hour on the

same

machine.

So can someone educate me on these particular vp machines. I've
looked at other casinos and can never find a $3000.00 payout like
these machines have.

The Tucson weather is very nice this time of year. If this payscale
actually exists there I wouldn't mind spending a little time down
there. The payscale you listed would come in at over 104%.

Mick,
You might have some company. FVP came up with 104.312% for these
Tuscon Deuces (and you could even short-coin it at 103.123%).

Wait! don't do a thing. Don't learn the game, don't practice the game, just keep playing it! Why jinx yourself? A couple more years and you might be able to retire.....

  Congrats on a great run!

There is only one IGT Triple Deuces pay schedule and that is
4000-3000-100-50-40-20-15-10-10-5 with a return of 99.92% and it's been
around for many years. I haven't been to this casino, but it would
greatly surprise me if this machine were anything else.

That's it. Obviously I messed up the pay table. Happy to hear they
are over 99%. Thanks Bob.

Which Desert Diamond casino was it? There is one south of Tucson off Valencia, and one about 15 miles south of Tucson off Pima Mine Road. Sure would like to play them next Drs. appt in Tucson!
