Atlantic City Games

Post by EagleWarrior »

To anyone's knowledge, Are any of the following available in Atlantic City? We searched several casinos to no avail.
Joker Wild Kings or Better (20/7 or 20/6)
Double double Jackpot
NSU Deuces Wild
Thank you.

HARRAH`S HAS THE GAME JOKERS WILD W/ KINGS OR BETTER. THE PAYSCALE THERE IS 20/5. THIS IS A 25¢ PROGRESSIVE JACKPOT, IF YOU GET A NATURAL ROYAL FLUSH .THEY MIGHT HAVE NSU DEUCES WILD, I`LL CHECK WHEN I GO THERE NEXT WEEK.
I`LL ALSO CHECK AT THE BORGATA NEXT WEEK.
I`LL BE AT EACH CASINO 2 DAYS NEXT WEEK

Thanks. I'll look forward to hearing back from you.
I will be staying at Harrahs in September and will also visit Borgata.
For the Kings or Better JW I don't think I should do anything less than 20/6.
Enjoy a lot of success!

HARRAH`S - THE JP KINGS OR BETTER MACHINES ARE BY THE SECURITY & CASINO COMM. BOOTH. EVAN THOUGH THE FULL HOUSE ONLY PAYS 5 THE 4ofK DO COME OUT QUITE OFTEN  ( at least for me they have ) . GIVE IT A TRY AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. IF THE PROGRESSIVE IS OVER $1,100 THEN TRY IF THE PROGRESSIVE IS OVER $1,200 REALLY TRY. THERE ARE ONLY 6 MACHINES THERE. I HAVE HAD A GOOD TIME ON THOSE MACHINES AND HAVE PLAYED FOR HOURS. I DID GET THE 5ofK SEVERAL TIMES AND WILD ROYAL. IT ALSO HELPS TO BUILD YOUR COMP $ BY PLAYING A LONG TIME.
BORGATA HAS A LOT OF DEUCES WILD THROUGH OUT THE CASINO. CHECK AROUND THE B-BAR AND INSIDE THE B-BAR YOU MIGHT FIND FULL PAY AND NSU DEUCES WILD MACHINES. IF YOU PLAY INSIDE THE B-BAR THE DRINKS ARE FREE.

I was at the trop in early July and wil be there in a few weeks. I know I played several K or better joker poker. They have a long row of progressives that pay out well for a royal and other higher hands.
 
For me I play mostly the .50 deuces wild machines, many hits of 5 of a kind for $500.00.
 
I like the Trop over all other casinos in AC because they have the best selection of games and I have made out well on every visit.

Thank you both for this great information. I wll be at Trump Marina tomorrow morning (8/1) early for my main game - craps. Then will probably check out your VP suggestions at Harrahs & Borgata.
Only in for the day this time, but wll be in town next month 8, 9 & 10.
If you show, look for an Indian. Most people can tell, but the jewelry often gives it away.
My wife too. She's a blonde Cherokee. So much for stereotypes.

Reducing the FH to 6-1 return drops the overall payback of full pay KBJP by over 1.5%. If nothing else changes a drop to 5-1 would reduce the payback to around 97.5%. Pretty poor.
 
Keep in mind that VP machines don't "give" you anything. They are random and the number of 4oaks you will see over time will approach the statistical mean. You will see good streaks and bad streaks, that is all part of being random.

SCORPIO2: WE PROBABLY WERE PLAYING NEXT TO EACH OTHER AND DIDN`T REALIZE IT. MY GIRLFRIEND AND I WERE AT HARRAH`S ON TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. WE WERE PLAYING THE KINGS OR BETTER WHEN THE PROG. WAS AROUND $1150 ON TUESDAY . I PLAYED FOR SEVERAL HOURS I GOT A COPLE 5 ofK AND A WILD ROYAL. BUT COULDN`T GET THE NATURAL ROYAL. I PLAYED SOME OF THE REG JOKER POKER PROGRESSIVE, BUT NO LUCK THERE.
THURSDAY WE WENT TO THE BORGATA FOR 2 NIGHTS. THEY PUT IN NEW
IGT MULTI-DENOM POKER MACHINES OVER BY THE BUFFET. THESE ARE 25¢,50¢,&$1.00 . THESE NEW MACHINES HAVE THE SUPER BONUS DEUCES WILD GAME WITH THE PAYSCALE OF A WILD ROYAL PAYING 25 per COIN BET INSTEAD OF 20 per COIN AND FOR 5of K IT PAYS 12 COINS INSTEAD OF 10 COINS.  THESE NEW GAMES HAVE A 8/6 JACKS OR BETTER .
WE CHECK OUT OF THE BORGATA ON SAT. MOURNING BUT HAD SOME TIME LEFT BEFORE WE WOULD GO TO SHOWBOAT FOR THE $10 GAS CARD GIVE AWAY AND 7 x REWARD POINTS. I DECIDED TO PLAY THE SUPER BONUS DEUCES. I STARTED PLAYING 25¢ AND THE DEUCES WERE COMING UP ON ALMOST EVER HAND AND I WAS WINNING. SO I DECIDED TO PLAY 50¢ AND THE DEUCES WERE STILL COMING. THEN TO MY SURPRISE I WAS DEALT THE 4 DEUCES . HELD THE 4 -2s AND PRAYED FOR AN ACE, AND THERE SHE WAS AN ACE OF SPADES FOR $1,000 .
PLAYED A LITTLE LONGER AND I WAS ABLE TO GET 5 of K WITH 1 WILD WHICH PAYS 800 COINS ( $400 )
WE THEN WENT TO SHOWBOAT AND THEN WENT HOME 
OUR NEXT TRIP WILL BE FOR THE AIR SHOW IN AC
