I am a little disappointed at all of the people ragging on the fact that "Game King" is boring. It's boring because you guys are too enamored by all of the bells and whistles games that are out there, and not a game that is real and raw video poker at its best.

Games like a basic, single-line game separate the adults from the kids. They are what VP is all about.

As far as me Billyjoe the change is working out just fine. Nothing has changed I still don't have a snowballs chance in hell of winning the daily,monthly or the winners challenge.

OMG,,,,,,,, I can not believe people are STILL complaining about the single game, 'no choice', (LMAO) daily TOURNAMENTS.........

First of all, your choice is to play it or not. This has NOTHING to do with GOLD/SILVER/FREE status.........

Most importantly, The issue is a FREE TOURNAMENT......

Can ANYONE, name ANY tournament, in ANY sport, competition, activity, ANYTHING that is considered a Tournament..... that allows for different rules for different players.. . . . .

In this case, a VIDEO-POKER TOURNAMENT, each player, has the same rules and payouts....

Why do people here expect anything BUT such fairness??

sign me as confused.......

I still don't know where to find the results? Also it seemed that the voting period was way too short. What percentage of the members actually voted?

First off, welcome to Forum Red and Rob. Well, Webman ask for our opinions so we gave them to him, some people play for different reasons, I like playing the different games that I wouldn't play in a casino for real money. I wouldn't sit down at a machine that was a TDB and play JOB. Anyway we complain because we can, that's why we have a forum, not everyone is going to have the same opinion. The only game I really don't like with the new format is Game King cause that's what it is all about, I mean just have JOB or whatever, I just liked having the different variety of game types such as Aces and Faces, Blackjack Poker and others that you don't even see in casinos anymore. The contests are supposed to be for fun aren't they? I don't ever really expect to win, for me it's the journey and not the destination, just enjoy playing and chatting with the many friends I've made on here. Webman does a tremendous job trying to placate everyone and deal with all the gold/silver/basic members on here. Especially that Billyjoe and Edog, what a couple of rable-rousers they are, along with Tedlark. kati

While viewing the schedule of the Daily Contests (great feature by the way) I noticed that simple Jacks or Better or Bonus Poker are not scheduled.  Is it because most people find these games boring, or maybe it's related to the Winner's Challenge contest, or some other reason?These are the games I most frequently play at the casino.  With my limited bankroll my time at the Video Poker machines would be short indeed if I had to play Double Double Bonus or Triple Double Bonus all the time.The least volatile game being offered is Deuces Wild, which I very rarely play and don't enjoy that much.

Did you vote for this new  ****** daily contest format?   If you did, I wonder if you are still as happy with it as you were when you voted for it.
