Their bankruptcy filing is mostly a result of their LBO debt and the economy tanking-and by the way at least for now the casinos are not bankrupt, just the corporate parent - what killed Quick Quads was that Station was the leader in rolling it out and they had really good paytables. Now Quick Quads is funny that even in full pay form Jacks in not the best game you can play - it is good, but not as good at Triple Bonus and it is not that Station did not know the optimal paybacks were high when they put them out, they did, but they wanted to see what would happen
What happened was the real pros all started playing Triple Bonus and because of "who" was playing it and what the IGT par sheet showed, whether these players could play at an edge of not, the pulled that game. Then these players and many of you because you perceived it to be the best game, were playing the Jacks - too many good people playing the Jacks - the Jacks get pulled. Even players they have not backed off, they know who you are - they watch - players like Dancer and he is just one of many that are not known - they watch - they become human geiger counters of what games need watching, that might be beatable. If BD started playing Jumbo Keno, they might shut it down.
Now in the case of QQ, BD didn't kill it - I know who killed it and struggle whether I should out his fat ass (hint) right here - he also helped kill the 5x for so many of you he single handly and I know this for fact destroyed more opportunities in a year at Station, than Dancer destroyed at Station in the past five. All Dancer did was kill NSU Deuces at Palace Station and he did not do that himself, he had help - but this one guy killed Quick Quads and caused the 5x Senior restrictions and probably also was the impetutus to more tightly look at who got mailed what.
Station actually has corporate wide meeting on video poker policy. The fat ass was such a pig, he got himself promo banned for life - now with out fat ass to worry about, they are considered restoring the more liberal QQ tables which they downgraded anything that was left like BP and DDB, all because of fat ass. If fat ass, could have even replayed $1,000 or so of the much larger amounts he won through a Monopoly machine or something, the games still might exist - but fat ass could not do it. If fat ass, could have just played the liberal QQ games on a few days without a multiplier, they might have lasted and so might he have - but fat ass was the ultimate pig and pigs get sluaghtered.
Fat Ass and Station have much in common, both fail to realize you need to reinvest some of your profits in the business to keep it humming. Station wants all your money - NOW!, they want the highest margins possible, so they don't want to give anything back - Fat Ass played the game the same way, he could have just sprinkled some money around on slot machines and on non multiplier days, he could have bought himself a lot of time, instead his greed got him a one way ticket out.
I have no idea who you are talking about, but I could not help laughing while reading this. I guess it's just the way you said it, it was funny to me. Hey, I could use a good laugh! Thx.
