Does anyone know of any good VP machines in Western Washington? I've never played VP there but have to move there soon because of a new job. All the casinos in WA are Indian casinos, which seem to be notorious for poor payout tables. With everyone avoiding online play because of their unreliable nature, it looks like I will have to retire from VP play just as I am getting into it unless I come across some decent machines in WA.
VP in Western Washington?

Welcome to Washington.
I'm surprised nobody mentioned the shortest travel time to full-pay RNG VP is Southwest Airlines non-stop flight to Reno. Airtime is about 80 minutes. Even adding 60 min early arrival at the airport (which is plenty of time in my experience) and 15 min taxi ride from airport to the casino in Reno, it beats driving to Oregon or Idaho. Roundtrip internet specials typically about $220. Recently was down to $160, briefly.
If you do visit Portland, you may notice the Oregon State Lottery VP terminals in almost every restaurant & tavern. Good news is they ARE RNG machines. Bad news is the paytables are painfully poor. There's a game called Flush Attack which I thought was a real abomination of VP, but I read an analysis somewhere that it is actually the highest EV of the slim offerings - 91% ballpark. Another warning is there is a $600 top payoff- so there's never a reason to play more than 4 quarters - you'll wanna check the math.
Another closer option is Vancouver BC. There are casinos, there is VP in those casinos and I'm fairly certain they are RNG. Do some web surfing- I know of one big casino in New Westminster that just got remodeled in the last year.
An even CLOSER though more expensive option is a cruise ship. I don't know any particulars on these at all, but they board in downtown Seattle and the trip to Alaska is breath-taking. You wouldn't want to spend much time in the cramped ship's casino on that trip.

p.s.- follow-up question on your previous troll thread- regarding full coin Royals- everyone replied that they of course play VP using 5 credits - but did you mean MAX coins? as in 50-coins, which is the setting on most non-full-pay games? I doubt many of us play 50-coin, no matter what the denomination of choice is.
