I got the SL mailer for $100 cash on arrival plus $150 after 600
points, good any day through sometime in Dec. Used it on Saturday, no
problem, even though my play is almost exclusively VP (though mostly
the 50-play JOB, not the positive quarter games).
The machines used to show you exactly how your points accummulated. No
more; you have to pull your card and put it back to see point totals,
so much more difficult to see exactly what the system is. I played 50-
play nickles for an hour, pretty fast; on this machine, your playing
speed isn't so critical, since most of the time is spent waiting for
all the hands to reveal, and the credits to add up, even if you're on
turbo.
So: an hour of 50-play nickles was something over 200 points. An hour
of NSUD dollars was something less than 200 points. Got my $250 no
problem.
