I wanted to update VPFree..
I went to Thunder Valley yesterday..
500pts = $1 comp
Also, there's NOTHING pllayable there, except for a bank(10 machines)
of 5c/25c NSUD in the Penny section, with a HUGE Prog Seq RF. The
bank
is called "Thunder Royals"
I was just there yesterday. Please note I play DDB.
The bank you speak of in the Penny Section are nickel only. At least on
DDB, the Full House/Flush is a pathetic 6:5.
The only playable machines are in the High Limit Slot area, DDB 9/6
(98.5%) but they are Triple/Five/Ten play dollar machines. If there are
any single play dollar above 9/5 I haven't found them. It also appears
the .25 DDB range from 8:5 down to 6:5, and the scattered Progressive
Jackpots must hit a lot because they always seem to be skinny.
Thunder Valley will have some competition from the new Red Hawk Casino
in Shingle Springs off Highway 50 west of Placerville this fall. Lets
hope they COMPETE for our dollars anyway. Don't get excited yet.
