It’s VP in Nevada time!

Jstark should call himself Jsnark. I'm not fighting. As they say down south, you both get dirty and the pig likes it.
Nobody is fighting. I'm merely pointing out facts. A lot of people blame their losses on anything but the truth. Just like a basic strategy bj player who stands on 12 vs 3 but berates the next player for doubling A,7 vs that 3 causing everyone to lose.

As for Phil's comment, I also play REAL VP in casinos. In fact, I made $82.50 today (sure it ain't much!) all on +EV games, none of which were progressives, and none of which are in Nevada.

But did you vulture? That doesn't count as +EV in Phil's world. :roll:

I'd expect that kind of gain on positive games. I made $57 on negative games yesterday. Throw in craps and it was also $82. I really lucked out! I also decided to quit after $200 coin in or so. I know the drill by now. I stay, I pay.

FAA....that's a good cause. Good for you. Just back from Wendy's and my late night 89 cent snack. I like the JBC too. Hey, by the way, up here Wendy's doesn't charge you for LT on your JC. After my session last night and my Mrs. nice hit, she covered the tip for lunch in the lounge today. My absolute favorite meal. Yankee Pot Roast with mushroom gravy, from scratch mashed with the peelings still in, green beans with almond slivers. Yum.....Good luck to all of the gang heading west. Some day I will get there too. Hope you don't run into any rustlers along the way. For now I will stay here in New England and see if I can stay out of the stocks and I don't mean the kind you buy and sell. Let's see who knows what the stocks are. Whoever knows without looking it up, gets a free drink on me and trip to the lounge at Mohegan Sun. At least for the next few months while I still have my Soar status.

Olds, to correct myself, $1.29 JC. Stocks are those wood slabs which hold head, wrists from my film recall. I am considering AC parasailing next week. My free play should cover two thirds of the $75 cost. Yesterday went well at +$98. I somehow left the casino to go into town for lunch and shopping.

OK FAA.....you just won a trip to the lounge, free drinks, and maybe even a midweek room. My English teacher threatened to put me in one once. I was flirting with the gal next to me while we were studying all about Salem Ma and early Colonial literature.

im heading down myself in 12 days, why play 99.54 game when theres a 100.76% game?
i wish i knew about video poker in my last visit of 2016, it blows my mind, how many people there are either really rich or really hate their money lol, i was at hard rock ac last weekend, and since tropicana are associated with hardrock i wonder if palms is as well with ac casinons in nevada? i got a nice upgrade card from them. but yea why bother with negative games is my main question?
You had best keep in mind the fact that, even playing games with a positive pay scale, brutally awful sessions can, and will, occur. If you follow DAAmAAn's Journey thread, you will know what I mean.

Hopefully, you can ride out the poor sessions and come out ahead. Good luck!

Theres light in the end of the tunnel in a positive game. In a negative you will lose 6$ an hour guaranteed
