You're not kidding. Pure hell to BE. How did you do? Caesars VP area now features these startling, annoying bird sounds out of nowhere. They really rattle me! Quick Quads, I assume? Your pals may even be contributing to the racket. I find myself rushing through my session just to get the hell out!


Bird sounds??? Huh?

Well, as I recall, in the Caesars lobby where Gorgon Ramsit has his pub and the Italian coffee shop is set up, there often are several chickadees flying around the spacious area, making a type of nest way up in the nooks of the decor....there often is a pigeon or two as well in there.... I always find a way to sneak food to them...

Same was true over at Bally's for a long time, before they added Dunkin donuts....birds were common sights.

You mean the sound of grind. I'm like a hamster in a cage on JOB and BP, especially if the quad appears before I hit max bet. As for the sound itself, experience it yourself and report back. Maybe more of a sharp whistle. The CW should know. It's not the upstairs birds. They're just staying warm and pretty quiet.

Yup, move the operation to quarters entirely and keep hoping to break even. Or resolve to take a handful of dollar max bets at the end of the day. Castor oil tastes awesome.

Enough with the changing denominations...just stick with quarters, I'm serious....

And get away from AC video poker for awhile...plan a Vegas outing if you can.

I'm down to an hour a trip. Each casino has at least one annoying inconvenience. It's become a real struggle to have fun. I'll just have to settle in at Borgata early on one week.

He might be referring to "Caveman Keno" that squawking pterodactyl is relentless.

It does resemble a pterodactyl sound. Sharp and piercing. Are the downstairs VP machines near it, if you recall? I would not even know.
