Played QQ in Vegas

Post by kjohn »

We just got back from a stay at Red Rock in Vegas where I played Quick Q. 
It took exactly 9 min. to loose $100.  I played several of the newer VP games
that take 18 credits...Frankly I don't like any of them.  The odds are really
stacked against you and you need a much bigger investment to play.    So I took
the rest of my stake and played triple play and hit 3 royals, two on the same
machine.  Also played plain DDB and ran one machine over $1000 with AAAA2 and a
lot of other good things......All in all I played 20 hours over 2 and a half
days and brought home money.....Red Rock is a great casino...

Congrats on your royals and awak and good hits at Red Rock! We have a trip to Vegas planned soon and I hope to get to Red Rock this time. I like triple play and play DDB whenever it's to my advantage. Thanks for the inspiration!

I tried some dime 5-play QQs the other day when I was waiting for a good paytable to open up. I did manage to stretch $100 out to 1/2 hour before I lost it all. Naturally, when I was playing my normal game (DDB variation) I was dealt a nice QQ (33321). But, I can't complain. I hit aces 3 times playing at the dollar level and ended up ahead $1600.
 
The QQ game wasn't a good paytable (9-5 DDB) so I won't be doing this again. They do have a few good QQ games in LV but only at the dollar level and above.

I've played at almost all the off strip casinos and like RR the best.  They have
two banks of machines that are Optimum play  (50) for a FH.  The bank of
machines where I hit the 3 Royals were Progressive triple play.  If you get
three Royals you get a huge bonus....At any rate most the machines are table
type and the chairs are all arm chairs that adjust in height...Very nice.   The
group I played at were not table type but the taller format.  The staff should
be able to direct you to them..

I would like to say that at the place i work and play the most at we have a bank of QQ and the have nickels and quarters.I played them on the DDB which i like to play normally and i have to say that the are not very good odds to play.I spent $150 dollars in a half an hr had to leave and go onto the other side where they have The 5 Aces machines and hit $1200 dollars then hit a royal for $1000 dollars to make up my loses.. So i would say that playing the QQ is not really a good bet unless you get something delt to you..
