How about any of the Terrible Herbst's or Rebels?

Does South Point have any full pay VP games?

full pay as in a >100% paytable? I don't believe so. Obviously Dancer would be the expert since he's very familiar with that casino, but I'm pretty sure they don't.

Southpoint has plenty of 95.5+ games, but nothing over 100 as far as I know. There may be promotions that push the play positive at times. Maybe it's enough to keep the interest of some of the locals, but not me as a visitor.
I'm pretty sure they used to have 100% games. It's been several years now since I played there... if I have to leave the strip now, I'd much rather take the extra drive to Stations for my favorite games with positive pays. Palms is good too when I don't want much of a drive. I assure you, even with their positive machines I'm not making any of them go broke any time soon.

Did you mean 99.5%?

But with their "revamped" players club, you won't get status points with positive games at Boyd, and barely any with 99%+ games. It's all theo based now in terms of status, and dozens on another forum I post on are pissed.markinca wrote: ↑Thu Aug 30, 2018 9:48 amPretty much all the station casinos (red rock being one of those) and many of the Boyd casinos have >100% VP.FloridaPhil wrote: ↑Thu Aug 30, 2018 9:37 amI'm curious as to where those casinos are?

There are still a few casinos around that offer 10/7 double bonus poker , and 10/6 double double bonus poker.
Many "full pay" games but none over 100%.
My gf's mom has DVT, it doesn't look pleasant. :(

Many South Points game are positive from jump street on double point days.

Man, this points stuff can be very attractive! I should take advantage of Borgata bonanza here.

I believe the highest return games at South Point are double bonus deuces wild (99.81%), and NSU deuces (99.73%). While the games themselves are, obviously, less than 100% return, South Point has 0.3% cash back.
