I don't know if it is the seemingly tough hitting of the Pickums at FW,
but I notice the machines seem to have more openings on them lately. I
went by them the other day at 5pm, and only 3 seats were taken out of
the 10 FP pickums. A couple months ago you couldn't get a seat till
after 9 pm. It seems everything in FW is tough to hit nowadays. As for
the felon, if they paid the price for the crime, it is done. People can
reform. If he blows it, I'm sure it would make the headlines. Hey, all
the casinos are using sneaky tactics to get our money anyway. Changing
pay tables and processors in the wee hours as I have seen them do,
changing the percentage of slots so they get more, changing comp levels,
changing dollar requirements for points, etc. It never seems to get
better here in CT. It's all about money and that is the route of the
evil. They will both be expanding again and need more money. Got to get
it from us that are willing to give it. Nobody's breaking my arm to go,
I do it of my own accord, even though it seems stupid most times. Jmho.
John in CT.
