That funny that you say that right now. I was saving that for my trip report, but I guess this trip report can just be real time. Last night after leaving dinner, someone with me stopped for a minute and did a double-take. Sure enough, it was Bob Dancer walking though the casino!I introduced myself and we actually talked for a few minutes and at one point I asked him about Quick Quads, which he said he's looking at. I think he was surprised that I already knew some of he right holds since the game isn't out yet (thanks to the strategy thread here). He seems to have some reservations about the required strategy (he mentioned a 4-4-4-2 deal vs. a 4-4-4-3) and it looks like he's taking a good look at it before having an opinion. Personally, this is the new game I am looking forward to the most.It was really fun to finally meet Mr. Dancer and a complete coincidence since I didn't know he played here until last night... he's very nice in person.

That would be a pleasant surprise!   I have another interesting story for you.  I just now got back from getting a haircut.  The guy sitting next to me had an interesting tattoo on his arm -  a lucky clover which was the spitting image of the one Boops posted, sitting on top of a horseshoe.  I bequeath that guaranteed good luck to you since I won't be playing for the next few days (otherwise I'd keep it for myself!).

Well, I'm going to grab some breakfast first and then I'll take that luck into the casino, CD. Looks like quarters for me this morning and I'll see how I do.Also forgot, Bob told me some of the other places he's playing lately, which included a gas station and a bar. I should have written them down because I sure can't remember which ones. He wasn't playing last night, just collecting on some rewards.

 He gets lots of CB/BB as well as RFB and show comps. EDuardo, good luck my friend. Supposed to be a couple of banks of positive return machines back towards the parking garage.

Lots of positive return machines here, EDC. Way more progressives than I have ever seen as well.

Way more progressives than I have ever seen as well. You be careful of those progressive machines. WAAAAAY more stingy than the average VP machine. If and when you should bag a progressive jackpot, congratulations  but don't expect it to be a loose machine. The whole idea behind the progressive jackpot is to sweeten the RF pot so to speak. In the meantime, Good Luck and enjoy the feast buffet. Well worth the money.

Personally, I'm waiting for Eduardo's VP tip book.  Will deuces (doooses) remain the standard or will DDB win out?

Dancer has written about QQs a couple of times:
 
http://www.videopoker365.com/video-poker/quick-quads/
 
Nothing there that those on this forum don't already understand. I image Dancer/Daly will have strategy cards available soon.
 
I wonder when we're going to hear about QQs being available in casinos ...
 
BTW, I don't think Dancer is playing GVR as much since they took out the machines he was playing. He can't rack up the points to remain at chairman level on the optimums.
 
Eduardo, you need my luck playing OEJs. I keep getting those worthless aces+kicker all the time.

Latest update is that QQ will be in casinos end of August. Another delay, but at least it's not a long one this time.
