Rivera

#1

A blast from the past – we just got free play mailers from the Rivera. We haven’t been in that casino since the Middle Ages.

I see from vpFREE that they have 8/5 Bonus and 9/7 DB, but the free play coupons say they are good on “select” machines. Can anyone give me some input as to these “select” machines. Slots only? Bad VP schedules only?

TIA.

That was true until last week. I was there yesterday and did not see any of the familiar 8/5 BP, 9/7 DB, or 9/6 DDB. All paytables I checked had been downgraded. I didn’t check every machine in every bank, but my random survey of a dozen or so machines showed the same devastation. My September greatly reduced mailer had a letter from the new General Manager Rob Kunkie. His exciting announcement is that Queen Victoria’s Pub is now open for breakfast. Wow a dumpy restaurant in a dumpy casino.

I checked in June and never saw any decent paytables at the .25 and .50 level. About 2 or 3 years ago I saw a hybrid BP with a 80 coin return for 4oak’s. Again this is at those pay levels.

First a spelling correction – Riviera.

Thanx, Vegasplayer, for your report – even though it is bad news. However, can you at least use free play on these VP machines?

Typical Riviera FP is good on all VP machines.

I too got a couple of free play offers. 9/7 DB exists in .25, .50 and $1. They are located just West of Banana Leaf restaurant. I haven’t seen any 8/5 Bonus lately.

I didn't see any of these today. The best I found was Illinois Deuces
near the cashier.

I stand corrected. I took a good look this time and there are no more 9/7 DB in any denomination. I also did not see traditional 8/5 BP either.

There is $1 8/5 Bonus, 9/7 Double Bonus, 9/6 Double Double, and
several other games almost as good just south of the point half way
between the cashier and the sports book.
