     Lets see if I can phrase this question correctly.  I have payed VP for about 7 years, I have always wondered.....if I am playing DB and playing a dollar and then switch to 2 or 5 dollars are the same RNGS spinning no matter what $  amount I am playing as long as I am playing the same game?

PAH,Well, technically, since they are "random" you could NEVER have the SAME numbers even at the same denomination!  <LOL>  However, to answer your question seriously, YES, the same "Random Number Generator" logic is running on one machine no matter which game or denomination is being played.

Yes.  The denomination being played does not affect the RNG.  If there was a difference, you'd have different expected returns for any VP where the paytables are the same across all denominations.
