Super job Great One. I couldn't help but notice the poor paytables, but am finding more and more that in the short run anything can and does happen.

Yes very poor paytables at foxwoods especially at the .05 level. Hey JIMDUECE`SWILD will be there 9/3-9/5 bringing the parents and wife they are slot players so who knows where they are going to want to play.

Nice hits!
Those pick 'em paytables really irk me though. Because unlike the DDB game shown, nearly every casino in the US uses that pick'em paytable and rarely any better. Can't wait for another quick stop at Fremont next week to play the 99.95% version. I'd happily take a quad there.

If your ever up in CT Mohegan Sun has pick'em that's 99.95% at $1,$5,$10,$25 demons.

I guess I am alone in favoring Foxwoods over Mohegan Sun. As I have stated before, it's all because Mohegan stopped their VP players at the $1 $2 $5 $10 and up level from earning reward points.
My favorite games are dueces wild and joker poker (kings or better). This past weekend at Foxwoods I got at the $2 level 4 dueces, a royal no duece At the $5 level 4dueces X 2 Oh yes at $2 level 5 of kind on joker poker kings or better. All in the Pequot casino. Sorry no pictures, but lots of w2s
I have played pick'em at $1 level in the Cedars casino and have got 4 of a kind a few times

I have to differ with you here. Not in favoring one over the other, but in the facts about earning or not earning reward points. There are about 300 or so vp machines at Mohegan that do not pay Momentum Dollars, but they do pay Status points. All of the machines that do not pay points meaning Momentum Dollars are clearly marked as such, though the stickers are small and hard to read. It makes no difference what denomination they are. Everything is based on the pay tables in a particular machine. All of the machines that do not pay Momentum Dollars, have better pay tables in the 98-99% range. Even if your statement was true that Mohegan stopped paying points for dollar and up machines, you would just have to play a quarter machine with up to 25 quarters bet at a time which most of the Mohegan machines allow. I don't know where you got this information from, but I am there 2 or 3 times a week and this is the way it is as posted above. The other downside for vp players at both Foxwoods and Mohegan is that for Mohegan, you have to cycle through nearly 500 bucks on the machines that do pay Momentum Dollars to earn 1 point. Foxwoods has a similar schedule, but I don't know the exact amount. I think for regular non vp machines you have to cycle through about $165 to earn one point, but that varies too. Glad you are doing well at Foxwoods though. Like some of us have recently posted about, paytables mean little or nothing in the short run. To attain level 3 at Mohegan and a roughly equivalent level at Foxwoods, you have to cycle through their machines about $ 658,000 dollars every 6 months. That is the number for Mohegan and it does not matter if you play machines that pay Momentum Dollars or not because your player level is based on status points which all of the machines pay. I still get to Foxwoods once in awhile, but haven't been for several months. I just like the atmosphere and employees better at Mohegan plus it shaves 20 minutes off my drive each way to go to Mohegan. Any further questions about the current rewards system at Mohegan, just post. It is extremely complicated and most people have no idea how it works including the employees. I have most of it memorized and believe me it was no easy task.
