Re: Finally going to Vegas!!!!! November!
[QUOTE=Eduardo]I do not like single hand as much. I have been trying it on the beta. I like 3 hands and sometimes Super Times Pay. That is going to reduce my play time isn't it?
Yes, unless you hit something nice early on to cover your play. Since you're playing 3 hands on TP in about the same time you play 1 on single line you'll go through your stake 3 times faster (if you're playing the same denomination on each). If you have your heart set on 3 play or STP, think about playing them at a lower denomination than you would play on single line.
As far as nice hits go, it is a bit of a comedown to play single line, isn't it? That's what I mainly play in casinos. TP/STP/50 play are MUCH more fun![/QUOTE]
You can play a single hand of STP.

You can get a good feel for how long your 2000 nickels a day is going to last Eduardo on each game by just playing them here on this site. Hmmm, I saw a guy playing MultiStrike at the Plaza once with the denomination set at $.01. He put $20 in the machine, set it on JOB with only 1 line played at ONE credit per line. That was on Monday. He was still playing that same machine Friday and had $19.76 in credits <LOL> I hope he was tipping the cocktail waitress more than a penny a drink!A lot of that was exaggeration Eduardo, but, the truth is, you COULD set that machine up that way with the options provided.

MikeA, "duh" on me. I posted a kinda confusing message last night saying the same thing. Logged in this morning to put it the way you did, but you beat me to the punch. I always do that! (Laughing) I think of a simpler way of saying something - AFTER I post.
Eduardo, think of your $250 this way -
25,000 points on 1-cent play
12,500 points on 2-cent play
5,000 points on 5-cent play
2,500 points on 10-cent play
1,000 points on 25-cent play
I'm sure you've got a good feel for how long points last on the different games on the beta site. You'll see the same thing on the real machines. The real machines show your score as points like they do here, but on the real machines (the newer ones) you can touch the screen where your points are shown, and they will show your score in $ instead of points.

I forgot to mention that the reloads work a bit differently in Vegas than they do on the beta site. If you need one - - you'll have to call WM and give him the location on the nearest Western Union office.

I am staying at the Hilton now. So now I will not have to walk far to get to the machines shadow suggested!

It's always better to stay in the same place you plan to play most of the time. It will result in better offers down the line.
Keep us informed as the time gets near. I may find a way to get down there and see how you're doing.

The date is set it will be the 13th of November and the Hilton (one night). I will be sure to join the slot club or whatever it is called there to try to get some comps and maybe offers for a next trip! I signed up for their email offers so maybe i will get something from that? I will try to find out if there is anything special to go to in that time but mostly i just want to play some VIDEO POKER and walk around and see things since it is my first trip. If I can get comps for half off a sandwich I will call it a successful trip. I have an extra 50 dollars now so if I can do that every week maybe I will have more to play with when I get there.

Oh I almost forgot. I really like to watch CSI and it is in Las Vegas and it kind of creeps me out because I don't want to get beat up by those cardboard stick gangs or whatever and I don't want Grissom to be the one figuring out where I am so any place I need to stay away from between the Hilton and the Strip?

Vegas casinos are safer than being in a bank. Just be smart and blend in and you have nothing to worry about.
Just small talk to folks and never give away anything about yourself or your bizness to strangers.

Also, don't pull out your money and count it while sitting at your machine. If you need to check what you have, visit the restroom and take a seat - it's what I do. Really!
