Lucky Larry      Do you think those high rollers knew that spin poker is really a slot?

The player knew his video poker. I witnessed no mistakes in hand decisions.

They tell me all the casinos have switched to arcade games now...
 
rofl... so true.  its just a maze of penny machines that dramatize wins with more bells and whistles than you can shake a stick at.
 
HEY look I won $3!  Oh I forgot it cost me $4.80 to win $3.  But hey I still won right

I also noticed something strange at the aquareus in laughlin.
They have a bank of 6 allstar machines on the main floor. You can play ten handed on every game on the machine except chase the royal, it will only go to 3 hands. That has to make you think somethings up with that game.
I have been told by slot supervisors that, at times, the casino wants to limit their exposure to very high payouts, even if it is very infrequent. I have seen machines where certain games are limited by either the number of lines or the denominations that you can play.

Keep in mind that the guys/gals who run the casinos have the same philosophy as those who run Wall Street investment houses and insurance companies. Keep the liability on the player. investor, insuree.
