The Tropicana vp inventory has been updated after a

There was some ancient stuff still listed in the Ramada/Trop Express listing.
Like a referance to the B&O (?) railroad bar. That one died about three
years ago right? The Eclipse bar took its place.

The Caboose Lounge bartops keep changing. For years they were worthless.
Then they got up to Bonus 8/5 (quad sevens pay triple). Then last trip they
were downgraded to Bonus 7/5. Still a good bartop play with the live tunes,
attentive bartenders and the new cool glassware. They do at least three different
acts a day now for live music.

I have not found anything to play in the high limit area the last two trips.
This is around the Grand Junction bar. Still some Bonus 8/5 in the bartops
though.

I added some games that are in the Antique Junction/Non-Smoking area.

There might be something playable between Leroy's and the Pit, need a early
morning scouting trip. Look out for the crappiest new slant-tops though over
there. I have seen the Bogus Bonus 10/8/5/3/1/1/1 in nickels but not in
quarters/halves/dollars. Look in the Game Kings mixed in with the 3/5-Plays.

Anyone figure out what those new High Def ShuffleMaster games are dealing?
Those dealers stare at you from across the casino. They have several flavors
including BJ and Three Card Poker.

Thanks, first, for the updates. I'm staying at the Trop next
weekend and it appears I need to refresh my Bonus Poker skills, as
well as learn the incantation for quad 7's.

Last trip we played some of those bizarre video screen dealer
games. I played Texas Hold 'Em Bonus Poker. I like them for a
couple of reasons. 1) They have card readers, so you earn points on
your card like on vp and slot machines (not sure what coin-in is for
a point) 2) You can play table games for lower limits than with a
live dealer, so for the "I don't play carnival games" crowd (of
which I am a proud, card carrying member) you can play lower ER
games for much lower stakes. 3) When they change dealers, they
change locations. I've now played by the pool in some tropical
location and in a deserted high-end casino without leaving my
table. 4) It gets more bizarre the longer you play there. Hard to
explain, but they've programmed in some witty responses when you are
slow to bet. Everyone at the table begins to talk back to the
screen. It's like being in a Fellini movie.
