Some places, I have to be careful NOT to hit jackpots due to previous 86'ings...
Thanks for the laugh!
Cat and Mouse Game eh!?
Another bug I observed (All Star IIs) is that you'll have some UX screens on a particular ASII with a 10 coin requirement to access the next hand multiplier(s) on the given buggy screen (standard UX - not bonus streak UX and not spin poker UX) but on other screens with next-hand multipliers you can bet 5 or less coins to pick off the multiplier(s)- again, this is all on the very same machine.
As an aside, a fun way to churn your free play (if you don't find any stray multipliers to vulture the free play on) is to seed a UX with multipliers with the free play (via ten coin bets) and then vulture it off (with five coin bets) yourself with the remainder of the free play or with your own money (yes I know the free play is your money) . . .
Also based on what Barney posted, free play can be used find buggy (screens that generate multipliers with five coins in or for hands that shouldn't generate multipliers but do) screens I suppose.

LOL Tableplay! I didn't even think about it if he drew 2 Royals Let Alone all 5!
I guess even smart, tight APs like IBYA have to take calculated risks.
He most likely had a back up plan using a shill or like the underage kids used to do... just leave! LOL
I don't know how it is in the Detroit Area but I am pretty sure in Vegas they gotta pay you as they roll you out the door... I think.
Not ux, but I like this too.

Pretty twisted how he got there.
I am sure you all read the story.
If he continues to gamble like that... 240k won't last long.
Maxing out all ATMs and paying those fees! That might be the definition of a degenerate.
Most people who never had large sums of money do not know how to handle it when they get it.
I do wish him well though and hopefully the sharks won't eat him alive.
I am guessing he told everyone he knows what he did.
It won't take long for all the friends and family members to come with the sob story and hand out.
Forgive me if I am being cynical or negative.
It is part of my nature.
I have had that draw on 3 play, 5 play and 10 play quarters about 11 times total over the years.
I never Flopped nor Drew One Royal with that Draw!
Yes, I read the story and had the same thought. Gambling is a very addictive activity.
I still like looking at the picture though.
Thanks for all the feedback. I did forget to mention in the OP - I found an 8/6 Bonus Deluxe UX (99.6% return), but I don't really want to learn a new strategy just for one machine at one casino. Does anyone know how to calculate the loss in EV from playing the 7/5 Bonus UX strategy on that?
I believe Frugal poker and Wolf Video poker have this capability - you would want to generate the strategy chart for the 7/5 BP game and then import the generated chart into the 8/6 BPD and run a 900000 or higher simulation on it, or perhaps several 900K simulations on the 8/6 BPD using the 7/5 chart. Then you can look at the results of the simulation to see what the expected loss is. Note that the strategy involved would be for the non-UX 7/5 BP game. But if the Wizard of Odds has the 7/5 BP UX strategy available, you could use the "Tweak Charts" feature in either of these packages to tweak the generated 7/5 BP non-UX strategy chart so that it reflects the 7/5 BP UX strategy and then run the simultion(s) using the 8/6 BPD paytable.
Cheers, tp.
Great app to have...
