Greektown VP tourney

#1

VP Pappy,

My wife is going to play in the Greektown vp tourney. She didn't actaully check the paytable but the machines said JOB. If it is actually 9/6 JOB, this is a pretty silly tourney.

3 minutes, playing quickly , will give you 50 hands. Less that 12% of the time will you hit a hand over a full house and your chances of 2 quads is less that 1%, which is about your chances of hitting a straight flush.

My guess is there will be a lot of scores around 200 - 300 credits. If these are the rules, this is a very silly tourney. After 2 minutes, if you're on your way to a 300+ credit score, I'd suggest going crazy for the big hands.

Johnny Z,

   I agree, it won't be all that exciting. If you have to sneeze a
couple of times, it's all over.
   I've been running some sims and about 50 hands in 3 minutes is
what I came up with also. 175 to 350 credits is about the range won
without hitting a quad. I have 500 points accumulated from
Saturday's play, so I have one play coming already.
   Two hours of quarter Pick'Em is worth about 100 points and I'm
guessing that I play that game at near 1000 hands per hour, what
with the one card decision all the time.
   The cash back for vp players sucks in Detroit, but I never look a
free comp in the mouth.
   There's some more info up on vpFree where I started a thread on
the subject, including a response from Bob Dancer.

   TM & VP
