Rama Trip Report Jul 16, 2007

I have been to Rama for the last three days. The new 3/5/10 play is a blast.
  I stayed on quarters ten play the full time. My understanding of what was
  to happen was .25/.50/1 not 5/25/1 which would make sense. Never have I
  seen .05 on the same 1.00 machine. This has already created a nightmare.
  Nickel players are coming out of the woodwork. A good part of the time my
  wife and I were the only ones playing 10 play quarters. Everyone else was
  playing either one nickel a line for a .50 bet and some only bet a nickel for
  5 of the lines. Other players who are full pay .25 and 1.00 could not get on.
  Most of these nickel players did not have a clue on what to do and were
  arguing about whether you should keep a jack of hearts with a three of hearts.
  Overall, I am thrilled about the new soft were games and amounts. Now, if
  we can just get rid of the nickel players I would be happier. It sounds like
  I am a VP snob, I am not. I just want them to have there own little bank
  of machines somewhere else!
  In the meantime, get a royal, preferably on 25 or !.00,Colin

And to make things worse, since the machines are nickel based, the dollar players get a hand pay
for hits of $400 or more. A major pain in the butt (congratulations you hit a jackpot).
