Multi-Strike Availability??

I have been doing some searching here on this list and others trying to find
Vegas casinos that offer Multi-Strike but no luck so far. Is this game
actually available yet in Vegas? Enjoy playing game on IGT's site and would
like to try the real think during upcoming trip next month.

There's at least 4 of these machines
(Multi-Denomination Multi-Strike) at The Orleans, near
the Gift Shop.

In addition, right behind these machines are a bank of
10/7 DB machines which, two weeks ago, surprisingly
were empty (nobody playing them). I only saw 1 or 2
people playing these 10/7 DB machines which are
scattered all over the casino. I wonder why?...

Hope this helps!

I'm sure that others will be able to provide the location of some
decent machines in the "locals", however, I was surprised to find the
game in a couple of the premiere properties on the strip last week.
Of course, 98%+ is as good as it gets.

MGM has a couple of machines with $.25 9/5 JB. That'll get you above
98.5% with modest strategy modifications. At Mandalay Bay in the high
limit room you'll find $1 7/5 BP.

I'll hang my head a little in shame and own up to giving both of these
a little play. Hey, play was very good in general and I'm admitedly a
bit too willing to sacrifice some of the spoils in the name of
"entertainment".

Sacrifice is the operative word here, and I'm not likely to touch the
game again until I at least find 8/5 BP at the VERY least. Until
then, the name this game will go by in my mind is Multi-StrikeOUT poker.

They are appearing all over the place. The problem is that almost none are actually playable. Even VP-friendly venues like Fiesta Henderson have God-awful pay schedules. The only good play I've seen is at River Palms in Laughlin where the multi-strikes have 10/7 DB and other decent plays.

Boulder Station has 2 machines and Fiesta Henderson has some.

I can confirm these. Sadly, the best game on them is 8/5 bonus (99.4% using simplified MS strategy). Sadder still, this is now one of the better plays in the joint.

Someone called me and said they have put 6 in at the Palms, near security podium. I don't know the payschedules.
