Hi Gang
Well this trip , I also got killed at the Atlantis. It seems the 9/5 super double MS-STP pays 99.85 are getting a lot of action , so you dont always get on them ( Good thing too, cause I dropped over $900 here ). The good news is , next to that beast is a Double Super Times pay poker machine. IF you like regular Super Times pay, you are going to love this game. Most of the pay schedules suck, but if you go to dime 10 play ( $7 ) a shot , you get the pnsud ( i.e. airport deuces ) schedule and its a playable 99.4 game. Played 3 session , and got deuces at least once every session. One was with a 5X multiplier for $500. I only got the "double" multiplier 3 times total, and the best was a 5X + 5X = 10X one.
So a $700 profit on these helped the losses from the so called "EV better machine" .
They still have 2 triple play nsud machines upstairs in the smoke free sky terrace. For the second trip in a row , I hit a RF on the right hand side machine. For the dummy slot players, there are 2-5-2 machines with the progressive up to a whopping $240,000. If you go to the Peppermill, you can play these same machines ( $1.80 a pop ) for a more normal $28,000 jackpot.
best wishes...Tom
