Detroit/Windsor Area Player

#1

I know some of you guys from posts on vpFree and vpFree_Detroit.
Have met a few of you. I play VP mostly in the Detroit and Sarnia
casinos, but will cross the river to Windsor for a session if one is
set up. The problem is that except for dollar and up Pick'Em, there
are no other fair games in Windsor Casino,(a 98.1% DB game is next
best) so you need to bring a large bankroll for any chance at winning.
   I will be at Hiawatha Racetrack on Tuesday with my wife most of
the day playing dollar and quarter Pick'Em and will be going out to
dinner later. (probably at "Olive's down the road)

   Good luck and play smart. Terry Murphy & VP Pappy

VP Pappy:

I notice that you have had no reply to your offer to meet. Perhaps
it's not that we Canucks are that unfriendly or shy; I suspect that a
number of us are from other areas. I am from the Greater Toronto area
(west) and while we have video poker, there aren't any positive games
(9/7 DB at Rama comes the closest that I know). I play mainly for the
entertainment (at Woodbine Race Slots, Toronto and Rama Casino, 90
minutes north). I do enjoy getting to Vegas a couple of times a year
and have only made money once out of a dozen or so visits when I got
a royal (25 cent Bonus Poker 8/7 last January at Palace Station).

I do enjoy your posts on VP Free. I haven't posted that much because
I don't have much to add.

Perhaps we'll "cross paths" yet.

I'm in the GTA also.
By the way there are better plays than the 9/7 db at Rama. There is 9/6 jb triple play 10 quarters per line at Rama, and there is FP Pick-Em at Woodbine on 25, 50, 1.00, and 2.00 machines.

   VP Pappy to VP Louie,

   We would all would like to put a face on people we know nothing
about except what we read in posts on sites such as this. I am no
exception. My goal is to meet personally, every person who has ever
played or will ever play video poker in my lifetime. It's a daunting
task, but given anough time, I think I can do it. And yes, I do plan
to live at least 15,000 years. My plan to accomplish this longevity
is to only drink the finest food, (comped of course) drink only the
finest liquors and wines, and play only the best low-stress video
poker games that I can find. (probably Pick'Em)

   And yes, we might cross paths in a casino one of these days,
although the word "cross" and "casino" doesn't seem to be appropos
when refering to a gambling endeavor.
