The review by "coutgot" is right on the money. I also stopped playing there two summers ago. Shame..It was a nice place and I found a great running path in a nearby park on the reservation. All the" a-- holes" had to do was double the coin in requirements to get a point and eliminate all 99%+ machines from multiplier days !! Larry F. LarryF
Mohegan Sun use to be the best deal for Video Poker players on the East coast. The Casino had plenty of 9/6 Jacks, full pay Bonus Poker and full pay Pick-Um. The comps were really good. A 9/6 jacks player, for example, who played perfectly, would be playing at 100.2% every day of the week due to the .66% comp value. On double points day the value was 100.86%. About two years ago, 2011, someone idiot, in upper management, realized wrongly, what was happening and decided to eliminate all comps from the full pay machines. The players that were pouring lots of money in the machines left. That included me. I was a 1.5 Million dollar a year, coin-in player. There were lots of other, even higher players, that left. The Casino doesn't realize that 95% of video poker players, play at least 2% lower than the optimum payback. That is to say that a J/B 99.54% machine is almost always played, at the most, at 97.54+or-%. That is a good return for the Casino. I no longer play at the Sun. I also do not play at Foxwood. The money now stays, in my pocket, until I go to Vegas and Laughlin. There are still some good plays there. A person just has to look for them. Moe Couture coutgot
Thought we would try out the new place. Wife and I spent over 200 bucks on machines ($1.25 per pull).!! Payback (?)...nothing.. nada...zip-pi-di-do-daa. Got back less than 4 bucks..total...!!! We were there less than 45 minutes. Will be going back to Belterra Casino. At least at Belterra you can play for a while and not get robbed. Overcrowed, smoking deck was a joke, not a good place to go to. Will not return. sonofcorn
I've been to Vegas 4 times and always heard to go to Red Rock as they had the best VP. So this last time I spent the $50 cab ride to go. They have near about any kind of VP you want to play with large progressives for those rare hands like dealt RF and sequential RF's. But I got stomped. Signed up for a players card had a chance to win up to $500 in free play. Put the card in and what did I get............. $3 rofl. Blew about $2,800 playing single line DDB in 4 hours. Only got two quads dealt 8's and then 8's again on the same machine. I won't be going back. spxChrome
