East Coast VP Road Trip?

Post by FloridaPhil »




We're thinking about making an East Coast VP road trip this summer.  First stop would be the new casino in near Washington DC.  Next stop in Atlantic City and then on to Connecticut.  We've been to the Mohegan Sun before and enjoyed our stay.  From there it's upstate NY.   We're looking for decent single line VP odds.  Any suggestions?

FP, you like deuces as I recall. AC deuces schedules aren't as good as Las Vegas, for sure, but Borgata has a 98.89% bonus deuces game for multiple denoms including quarters. Also a .25  Bonus deuces game that has a progressive for 4 deuces and 4 deuces with an ace. This paytable also pays $200 for a 5OAK with one deuce. 2 weks ago the 4 deuces were at $345 and with the ace at $1,350. Interesting game that seems to give you a lot of play, with a shot at multiple jackpots.

If you get as far north as Niagara Falls, there is Seneca Niagara. But, they don't have any "good" single line video poker at 25c (except for one lonely machine that has 8/5 bonus poker) - and good luck finding it.

At 50c and $1, they have lots of single line machines with 8/5 bonus poker on them. Also at the $1 level, they have full pay (99.95%) pick'em.

And, for the really frisky players, there is $5 full pay pick'em, and $5 9/6 JOB.

Seneca Allegheny has one quite interesting 25c single line game - deuces and joker wild. It's a 99.07% game, but with a somewhat difficult strategy.

Neither of these two Seneca Casinos has any deuces wild games worth playing.

There is a thread here that suggests DDB is the best game. Save your ammunition for Atlantic City. I am interested to hear about MGM Springfield when that opens and you go on another road trip in the future.

It is amazing what the drop off is when you go across the Rainbow bridge and reach Fallsview Casino. All 97% games. I did not want to risk taking pictures inside since I am an US Citizen.

20-12-9 Fooler DW for 25c to $1 Canadian
20-12-10 Fooler DW in the High Limit Room for all the way up to $25 denomination.

Thanks for the info.  Looks like 98.9% deuces is limited to the Mohegan Sun.  Thanks to Olds442jetaway for pointing them out.  It's hot in Florida in the summer, so we generally head north.   Still planning our route.

Hi Phil. Found some 98.91 single line at Foxwoods, but only at the dollar level. I will show you too where the spin poker dollar bonus deuces machine is too with the 800/1 paytable. It is nearly a 99% game too and lots of fun for a buck a shot. More fun with 3 lines at 3 bucks a shot.

If you play $1 denom you may want to try Mount Airy in Mount Pocono PA instead of NY. They have 98.91 deuces plus 99%+ other games. There is also a variety of other VP games at all levels just don't know the pay schedules off hand but not as good as $1. If you do go to NY just avoid any casino's/racino's attached to horse tracks. They are controlled by the NY Lottery and the games are VLT with predetermined outcomes. Turning Stone is said to be nice but I've never been there. vpFREE2 site says they have nothing good except for $5 denom and up.
