I found it humorous that the printed rules flyer actually refers to "Not
So Ugly Deuces"....lol. Even though that's how we players have come to refer
to it, for a casino to actually call it that seems funny. "Hey, would you like
to try our most popular game, 'Not So Ugly Deuces'?"That's like, "Would
you like to date my Not So Ugly daughter?" hee hee

Well if IGT can use it on their website to define the 16/10 schedule it is
well on its way to being in the jargon. Skip Hughes explained the whole story,
what a year ago? I believe it was on this site. Just where is that
derivation anyway? Anyone have it bookmarked?
On a similiar note, exotic table games like "Three Card Poker, Let it Ride,
Carribean Stud" and a slew of others get referred to as "Carnival Games". What
I recently found interesting is the Riverside in Laughlin used a similiar
phrase in a promo rule set a few months ago. One drawing ticket for two hours of
tracked play on Blackjack or any "Circus" game was in the rules without any
other explanation.
