As I was playing I kept staring up at the $2200 cash for the Royal,
and the 2000 credits for the four deuces with the Ace, not to mention
the
four Deuces at 1000 credits. While playing I happened to notice a
little sign on the machine that said that "No cash back or comps will
be awarded on these machines." This will be the first and last time
I'll ever play these machines.
I saw that too in the spring and stopped going there. They even took out the
bank of Deuces as well. One time I automatically put in a twenty and my wife
wondered why I was playing the Jacks when I always play the Deuces. I cashed
out after one hand.
I really used to like playing at Greektown because it has the best ambiance
of the Detroit casinos, I think. I just don't like looking at the stars while
getting screwed.
Now, I go to MGM mainly and when I can stand the funky, loud and smokey Motor
City I go over there where I've had good luck usually. Even they have cut
back by removing the bank of VP machines on the 3rd floor, the non-smoking one.
It's either triple play or "bend over the bar to peer at your screen" choices.
