Harrah's East Chicago

This in in the third floor table games room. My reply below includes the machine number (KC0205 3070) that I played. It is about three or four machines to the left of the 25c triple play with 9-6 jacks and NSU deuces (KC0211 3362). That 9-6-4 DDB machine used to be on the opposite wall in the same room. I only played that game because the downstairs room was closed. I do not know if the other two machines are still there. I rarely play 9-6-4 DDB anymore as much better plays are available. Still Majestic Star has a much better VP selection. (I have been playing DB2s on Multi-Strike at Majestic Star which in a 99.96% game. I have been carrying charts for it with me since I certainly do not know all four strategy levels perfectly.)

Where are the 25c 9-6-4 DDB machines hidden? On my last visit to
Harrah's in November I scoured the entire place for full pay DDB and
found only a single $1 machine for DDB. I've been playing exclusively
at Majestic since. --- In vpFREE_Chicago@yahoogroups.com, "Howard Stern" <howard.w.stern@e...> wrote:

will check but I suspect that the last 4 digits of the triple play
will be 3362. The BP progressive was about $2250 at 2:30 PM today
when I left. Two weeks earlier the same progressive was at $2349 when
my mother nailed it.

I noticed some other changes today. The quarter JB and 9/6 DDB are
MIA. The old multigames now contain 8/5 jacks, an inferior deuces
paytable and several video slots. On a positive note, there is now

a

triple play (quarter) machine with 9/6 jacks and NSUD on the table
games level.

7/5 BP progressive was at 2K+ this morning putting it just positive.

Construction notes: Decoration of the vp "dungeon" seems to be
completed. Indirect lighting now periodically changes color of
walls. Woohoo. Diamond lounge seems to be getting chopped up for
some reason. Premier club at Majestic has moved off the boat,

though

can be accessed from high limit room --A smart play since dockside
gaming lessens the value of an onboard lounge.

Thanks for the info. You're quite right about better plays if your're
refering to the percentage. DDB frequently doesn't even show up in
the listings for casinos. My problem is that I can't bring myself to
play games like JOB which I find about as interesting as watching
grass grow. The 98.7% isn't really that bad and having hit A-A-A-A-2
last nite on a $.5 TITO machine I think I'll stay loyal a bit
longer. :slight_smile: I have tried some low variance games, but get very
anxious when I fall behind because I know the pay table doesn't have
the big hits that allow you to quickly catch up. 'Guess I'm just too
comfortable with DDB. One of my friends has had some success with
multi-draw BP at Majestic. Supposedly that's over 99%. Maybe I'll
take a stab at it some time.
