 The deuces wild machine are OK by me. This machine is located by the isle near the
Total Rewards Center. The row next to the multi-progressive 25¢ machines.
  
GOOD LUCK  I'll be at the Borgata this weekend.

they have a interactive menu of all games in the casino, which allows you to see very quickly what's on tap at any given moment.  there are three of these menus spread out in the property, just find one and u will see what they have to play. They do have 3 machines of 9/6 job (99.54%) which is usually what I play on the rare chance I take the Jitney all the way over there!

9/6 job (99.54%) isn't this the best paytable in all of AC, should we not play at all in AC?

oh ja, that deuces wild paytable is nothing short of larceny by the casino, really sick!   dont ever play it again after that hit! In AC, resorts has a crapload of VP machines, all of which do have 8/5 Bonus poker, but that is offset by the fact all VP machines have DW with the same paytable as depicted in your hit above.....f-ng travesty!

 No one forces you to play the poorer games available on a machine.

 ????   Who said I play them??   I notice them, but i don't press the button and fire up the crappy paytables!!!   I've been known to troll the entire casino floor examinging EVERY Stinkin machine in each AC casino before I finally park my arse down and insert the moolah to begin play....you never know what you may find or uncover.   Like Byb Dancer has pointed out, paytables are manually set and mistakes can and do happen.    Do you remember my experience at Showboat I wrote about a month or so past?   I found a USA Poker (a.k.a "All American Poker") triad of machines, and two of the three machines had 9-9-9 paytables (with 500 as the max payout for a Straight flush, but quads were cut on one machine to 125 so the payout was 100.6% (not bad)......HOWEVER, I now know on that weekend the other TWO machines had their quads max payout still at the typical 200, so those two machines gave u a whopping 104%!!!!    Unfortunately, when i returned a few days later, all three machines were in the 100.6% mode, which is still superior but not Freakish!    It may have been an error, or, since these three machines were in the "High Roller" secluded area in the back, they may have deliberately been set that way for a specific player.   These three machines were dollar and up credit value (not 25 cent)  So I did not play too too long since I rarely play above 25-50 cents, but if I ever see those paytables again, i'll have a go! And I have seen people "FORCED" to play crappy paytables.....uknown to the general public, some AC casinos have hired Ex KGB and Stasi operatives to roam the floor and stealthly approach players, poke them in the back with a gun and say (in plush russian accent) "Play crapola paytable.....or die!"
