Borgata is only really good for single line games, they have terrible multi-line options, which is Roveer's game of choice. For example, on their STP games, they only have 10-line at the 25 cent level or lower. For dollar STP the most you can play is 3 lines. Same with Ultimate X. Golden Nugget has dollar STP, but with a max of 5 hands. GN's payables are better than CET on DDB STP though, at 9/5.

Borgata does have two 10-hand Ultimate X machines in the high limit room, at a minimum of $1. Those machines have 9/7 TDB, but they are virtually always shut down for one high roller who plays the machines all the time, so I've never been able to get on them.

You have to watch the multipliers on 9/7 TDB with UX. At Horseshoe Hammond, the flush was only worth 9X, iirc to make the game legal (<100%), and the UX feature added virtually nothing to the game's return. But if the multipliers are the same as DDB, then 9/7 TDB is over 100.5%.

I'm a KISS player. Keep It Simple, Safe. As safe as possible anyway. Single line, all the time.

I don't have the patience for single line, I need more action. The hits are too few and far between.

I would be done in one third the time, which wouldn't justify the trip!
