Is there any difference in the scrutiny Aps after corona virus?

Post by Player1 Million »

Has anyone noticed a change in the heat APs get after all the changes, more or less? I heard someone say that the casinos are watching everyone all the time with the mask rules. I have also heard that all they only care about are masks and social distancing and that being an AP is easier while the restrictions are in place.

There isn't any scrutiny Aps regarding video poker. The game is the same and the returns are based on the how many they take from the two pair , flush and full house and even the 4 of a kind. The game works on an internal clock that spins and you hit the deal button that sets the hand of 5 showing and 5 behind. The game is all about that clock that spins at an insane number per second.

Older machines used to work like that, but newer machines do not do five cards and five cards behind them. The "clock" keeps ticking and twirling until you hit the draw button.

And there is plenty of scrutiny of video poker players. Many successful players have been restricted in various ways from this or that casino for reasons concerning unprofitability.

Usually video poker players need to use slot club cards in order for their play to be profitable. Casinos typically use their player tracking system --- and not camera scrutiny --- to determine whether a restricted person is playing. Playing on another person's card is exposed when W2Gs come along. If you're playing for stakes that don't generate W2Gs, casinos don't consider you much of a threat and rarely bother to restrict you.
