Hi all. I'm hoping I didn't get into this beautiful VP game too
late. I started about two months ago and everything was awesome.
Then the new Argosy opened. Junk city! All the AA machines were
sent down the river. Now Ameristar has downgraded their machines to
150 for four of a kind to make the game the same percentage as
Pick'Em. Pick'Em may be boring, but with its tremendous ease of
play and low variance, Pick'Em is the easy pick between the two when
both pay almost exactly 100%. So now we'll all bash into each other
at Isle of Capri and Harrah's, I guess. Am I the only one who is
worried that these games will disappear?
I only am able to play 6-8 hours a week. I've played about 25000
hands and haven't hit a Royal yet, but have managed 5 straight
flushes (3 came in one four hour session!). Right now I am up $354
before cash back and the like, which is great because...
I just bought VPSM and discovered the strategy card I have been
playing had errors on it that (I'm guessing) cut the advantage in
half. Ouch!
So I'm curious, do you all prefer Harrah's or Isle of Capri? It
seems to me the Isle's cashback percentage is better, but I can't
figure either out for sure. Comps may be a wash? I don't know.
And double point days on Monday definitely makes it the start-of-the-
work-week winner. I like the actual casino at Harrah's better,
though, especially when a game is on that you can watch from the
machines. Well, I've ran my fingers off plenty for my virgin post.
See you at the winning machines in a week (I'm off to Vegas in a
couple days!).
Hope I didn't get in too late!
If you like AA, Harrahs is the better choice overall because they
have plenty of machines.
As for the cashback, I haven't totally figured it out at either of
these locations. You can check the vpFree database and see what
others have reported.
