Re: Video Poker Ringtones
BTW, I lost my good old cell phone last month at a casino. No one turned it in.

I like this subject. And, I thought I was the only one who wanted a RF ringtone! My wife looked at me cockeyed when I mentioned it to her. She thinks I am addicted to vp. I explained to her that is I was we would be broke.
This leads me to another pet peave that I am sure lots of my fellow members go through. I am tired of non-gamblers looking down on me just because I enjoy playing VP. My mother and father inlaw don't approve of it and I have to deal with those "so you are going again glares" whenever we go. Maybe its just me but I wish other people would just mind their own business when it comes to this passtime. If anyone wants to add to that or start another thread I will expand on my views.
Back to ringtones. I like the standard royal flush and hand pay jackpot song"We're in the money". I also like the music that comes on frequently on the IGT multigames when they go to the main screen where the shortcuts to all the games are located. I don't know what it is but I like it.
It is very pleasant and soothing. I don't think that is by coincidence. One thing I don't understand is why the casinos insist on turning the volume off on the jackpot music on the machines? You would think that they would want other players to hear that people are winning as incentive to continue playing. As a member of this forum I realize it is up to the RNG but I have to admit that it is nice to see jackpots being hit when you are sucking out. Even though there is no basis in reality for this sometimes it seems that the machines are so dead that they are turned off!!
Again, makes no sense to me why the music is turned off...
One more thing. What I originally wanted to post was that I saw a Royal Flush sound bite that someone had recorded posted on VPfree in the Nevada section. I am not a techy myself but there is probably some way to transfer that into a ringtone..

ginxxxx, 'Sorry about your missing cell phone! Keep calling your number and maybe you'll get it back yet. OR maybe you will instigate some fear, guilt or conscience into the new owner for personal satisfaction. Husband thought he left ours on air port shuttle bus in Tunica. It was five min. to boarding our flight home and he borrowed a cell phone to call ours. I know, 'sounds CRAZY and it was! It had been turned in to security at Harrahs. NO time to return for it and Harrah's shipped it to us, safely bubble wrapped. I'm an optimist and like to share happy endings! "Tomorrow will be better" final words A TREE GROWS IN BROOKLYN, very old book in my parent's library.

When my wife and I first started playing VP seriously we were sitting and talking with her (now deceased) parents. I mentioned we had put $10,000 through the machines and their faces gave away they were totally shocked. I tried to tell them that we actually WON money but I don't think that made much of an impression. I don't think they ever really understood what was happening when we gambled.

I resemble that remark. I have that "very old" book in my library.

What is the book about? Is there a moral to the story? You betcha! It was the book he had rifled through and found$700 worth of handpay from someone foolish enough to leave it there! Rather than take just the money, he took the whole kit and kaboodle so not to look too inconspicuous. All this while squeezed into one of them Latinas housekeeping uniforms to be incognito!

I would like a ring tone on my cell phone that plays the Death March or something similar that would ring as soon as I put my money in a machine on a day that I wasn't going to come out ahead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
