The vpFREE FAQ #4 uses "in quantity" as the phrase.

So just how long ago did 10/6 DDB debut?

How about Full Pay Double Bonus? I wonder how many Bally Gamemakers with the
10/7/80 paytable were out there at one time? Last one I played was at MSS.
I guess not enough to get the FP moniker.

The first 10/6 DDB that I ever encountered, was at the Palms, about
a month after it opened. I do think that they had some at the
Fiestas prior to that.

===============================================
I believe that DB premiered as a 10/7 game at the original casinos
that featured it. I know that I saw and played it at the 4 Queens
about 8 years (or more) ago. I think that the 9/7 and 9/6 DB pay
tables came out later. I know that Binion's has had the 9/7 version
for a lot of years.

The only 10/7/80 DB that I ever played, was a sole machine, near the
West entrance of the Fremont, several years ago. When I spied the
pay table, on a casual stroll through the casino, I thought that I
had discovered Nirvana. Hah! I ran $200 through, in short order.
I never scored a single Quad (or higher) and had only one FH in all
that entire session.

After that derriere kick, I tried again a few times, before I
finally declared that particular machine to be my master. I was
surprised to find the butt-kicker missing on my next visit. I
figured that it was a real money-maker for the Fremont. I'm glad
that some other folks must have had better luck!

I believe that I heard or read, that they still have some of these
excellent machines at the Riv. I suspect, though, that they are
both very old and very slow.

The El Cortez, not that many years ago, had three or four machines at
the $1 level, then two, and now ?? (none...I think is the correct
answer)

There was also one at the $.50 level.

Though it was blue streak (graytleegray) who posed the question, I
thank you for the answer.

I assure that there have been none at the EC, for many years. I know
their inventory very well.

The Rivera had them for a long time. About 6 of them.
