Someone made him an offer he couldn't refuse. Plus its G2E, every Vegas DEGENERATE in the world will be there.

 

I made my brother come out for G2E as well. I need you boys to show him a good time while I turn his wife into a degen! Bwahahaha!

 

That is just 100 play VP. The specific game is Double Double Bonus. 5 coins per hand. You can find that from 1 cent to dollars. At nickels, it would be 25 dollars per pull as you noted. At dollars it is 500. No extra credits beyond the 5 per hand are available. Videopoker.com has all these games you can try for free.

 

Thanks riders. I'll go mess around on that site for a bit and try to learn something!

 

wow, all in? that's a check/insta-fold hand with that many people behind you.

you're a dog against any draw getting there.

 

Eh, didn't say I was that good at PLO, still learning and it is more fun that NLHE . And it wasn't a huge game, 2-2 blinds, I had a little over 200 in front. Pot was decent at that point, and by the time they all called it was well over $1k. I had a solid read on the first player who bet (they were the only one to fold) thought that I might get a couple of folds. The hand that ended up winning had no business there, a pair with a gutshot draw (to tie) and a Q high flush draw. Once they all called I knew that I needed a black card that didn't pair the board.

I dealt poker to pay for college, and used to really love it. Now that I am older, have a career instead of a job, and family with kids still at home, I don't have the time to go play that much, so I tend to gamble too much when I do play. Plus I really really hate the majority of the regular players. The other guys like me, who play for fun and hope to either win, or enjoy the time at the table are a blast to hang with for the evening. The sunglasses/hoodie/headphone crowd make me want to vomit. The only joy is hearing them squawk when making a rebuy, or just irritating them to the point that they leave the table.

In the college days, a Vegas trip was hours of poker and a little pit action before going to bed. I have only played poker a couple of times on all of my recent trips, with one winning trip and two losers. Pretty close to even for that action.

My goal for next year is to finally go play a WSOP bracelet event. Hope to make the trip with my brother who is also a recreational player. I have wanted to play an event for over 20 years now, and am finally realizing that if I dont pull the trigger soon my first event could be the seniors event.

 

It was .10 level, so $50 per spin.

 

I played Cleopatra for the first time ever yesterday, just on a whim. I rarely even play slots. I put $300 in a $1 machine and played $20 a spin. I was down to about $100 and got the bonus, 15 free spins, which re-triggered twice! I couldn't believe it, a $5,000+ handpay! Would it have made a difference in the amount if I was betting higher?

I've gone for the $50 spin on the machine just outside the new slot high limit room at Cosmo. No luck on a nice dealt hand her. Gf was dealt a royal on that machine though, playing just 5 hands.

 

Nice hit! Cleopatra is one of the simpler video slots. Basically, all wins are multiplied by the line bet. Free spins are the same, except everything is tripled (excluding the 5 Cleopatra symbols).

So yes, an increased line bet would have multiplied your $5260 win accordingly, but unless you're psychic, there's no incentive to bet more than 1 per line because the percentage payback remains the same.
