Help...
I will be heading to Vegas in October. My question is I have heard of a VP game when you hit 4OAK you get a bonus spin. I swore it was like Wheel of Fortune.. If anybody knows the correct name of this VP machine it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Mike,
I'm not sure. I know what you are talking about though for I saw one of these machines at a casino in Oklahoma. It has a "Wheel of Fortune" type roulette wheel on top of it.
Spin Poker is something else. It is poker played on 5 "reels" that spin like a slot machine.

Thanks Mike.. My wife plays Spin Poker. I really don't care for it, but hey she enjoys it own.. Do you remember the machine you saw in Oklahoma was it an upright or console?. It sounds like it would be a fun machine to play as long as the paytable is reasonable.

Upright with 7/5 DDB paytable

I'm thinking MFP is referring to "wheel poker" where every quad gets you a bonus spin on the wheel. Requires an extra coin-in to earn this privilege. Anywhere from 10-2000 bonus coins on the wheel. A buddy of mine played for awhile and hit quad 3's(no kicker) and got 2,000 extra coins on the bonus spin but said that extra coin-in killed him over the length of his session. Only got 2 spins on the wheel unfortunately so choose carefully MFP, sounds like a volatile game.

Thanks Mike & EDC I know if I need to get VP info this is the place to come along with VPFree. EDC is this a single or multi line game. This is going to be our 1st trip to Vegas & it is all overwelming (in a good way) I know some these games can drain you quick.. I like DDB, but paytables @ Detroit Casino's are terrible. So I play more DB 9/6 lets me play longer with some 4OAK'S mixed in.

I did a "Google" & found a article on "Wheel Poker" It did mention 3 & 5 play. I just couldn't remember the the name. Thanks for your help. I will have to do some investigating while we are out there & find out who has it. I would like to give it a try..(I think?)
