QQ in Vegas need advice

Post by kjohn »

I'm going to Vegas the end of this month and staying at Red Rock...Has
anyone played QQ for real money?  I'm wondering if the machines are
multidenominational  nickle, dime, quarter,  or if they are just quarter or
above.....Am I correct that in the contest with 200 plays that equates to $900
if playing quarters...Pretty high steaks if playing for real.....

I'm not sure what denominations are available. Hopefully someone who has seen the installed machines can chime in.
 
200 * 3 hands * 18 credits per hand * .25 = $2700.
 
But you have to remember, that's coin-in, not your bankroll. Because oyu will be winning along the way, you could potentially play a long time on much less than $900. Depends on how your luck goes, of course.
 
It should be about the same as playing triple play Super Times Pay if you have done that before, since it is multi-line and 18 credits max bet.

Yep it's $900   for triple play QQ in quarters for 200 hands.....but unlike the contest, you'll be using your machine credits as you win them to account for the bet on some of the hands, so you won't need $900 to play 200 hands.

Oops, my math was off. Should have been 6 credits per hand. So $900 coin-in as you both said.
 
If that's too fast, I would hope for a smaller denomination to play.

So far the lowest denom I have heard about is .25.
 
Also, you don't need to play as fast as you might in the contest. Set the machine to a slow speed if that helps.

Thanks for the info.  I didn't equate the extra credits you would get while playing.  I'll report back after our trip.  Another question.....Of the games offered which one gives the best odds of winning.  I usually play DD and seem to have better luck with that than the TD.

The full pay returns for the games are all pretty close except TDB which is much worse. The best payback is 8-5 TB+ at 99.87% (with proper strategy of course). 9-6 DDB is 99.65% and the others are close.


 
As far as I can tell these payback are not available anywhere in quarters which really sucks. You have to play dollars which means $18/hand minimum.

Please do report back!  I'd be interested in knowing how the for-real paytables stack up against the ones here.

.25 is the lowest that I have seen and I live in Vegas...  Good luck!

I'll report back on the 31st.....RR has some cool games.  I sat at a triple play the last time we were out there and put in $100.  Didn't even look at the pay table.  Just wanted to relax and play.  Assumed it was  $.25.  It was but 30 at a time.  I didnt' even realize it until I hit AAAA2.   Took  a minute for it to sink in...LOL   Best not to sleep while you play.
