Hey EDC , did you get out of Vegas with 5 bills?   No but I still have a bit of cat tail left! Webman told me the check was in the mail.

The Bally Game Makers had a little better ergonomics but nothing new on the game menu. IGT had a few new games out that required anywhere from 6-10 coins-in to get max benefits from each deal. Most however, show little promise of success but the same was initially thought of Quick Quads.

And in the case of QuickQuads....I think there may be still some doubt as to its success in the casinos UNLESS they loosen the screws by improving the pay tables and lowering the denomination to something more affordable to the low rollers.

I'd play it at nickels with 6-credits in for the bonuses if it was single hand <smile> and if DDB was at least 9:6

Nice thought but I, like you will have to file that in the dream on category.

Again, to Webman and Shadowman, thank you both for your hospitality. It was a pleasure to have made your acquaintance and look forward to meeting up again. Perhaps we could persuade Shadowman to give a couple of free VP lessons. Thanks again fellas!

Just to let all know. Management and staff at VP.com made good on their prize payout which arrived today! Thanks go out to the Webbed man for his hospitality and encouragement to try the daggone contest in the first place. Again, 5x multiplier with quad A's with 3 kicker for 10k score. My first try was under 1,000 but ended up maybe top 50. Hope more forum regulars will visit/participate in next years expo mid Nov. 2009.

The good folks at VP.com one-upped the winnings by throwing in a VP.com shirt in my choice to boot. Thats just too cool. 5 benjies and a t-shirt. OEJ, does that qualify as a Fa La La La La.... La la la la dinger?
