There are NO 9/5 JoB in the casino at any denomination. It now makes sense why the host said that all their VP machines gave 1 TP/$10. All the machines with the best pay tables that were 1 TP/$25 (as listed on VPFREE2) have all been removed from the casino. The best available JoB pay table at any denomination is 8/5 JoB. There are approximately 20 8/5 $5 JoB machines scattered throughout the casino. I did not check DBP or the multi-hand machines as those are too high of variance for me and I don’t play them.

The 25x promotion is not invitation only -just swipe your card and you’re eligible. One odd little wrinkle is that you can start playing at 6AM to start earning the 25x TP but you can only swipe your card starting at 8 AM. I plan to be down in the casino by 7 AM and playing on a 8/5 $5 JoB machine.

It was fairly quiet in the casino tonight and no real buzz about the promotion tomorrow. I talked to a couple of floor people who thought it would be very busy tomorrow. Wish me luck getting on a machine!

One other oddity at least to me as a newer player was there were quite a few 10 credit max VP machines in the casino and I have no idea as to the payout as I didn’t have any way to calculate it or look it up. Something else odd that happened was that I couldn’t get the WoO pay table calculator to work even though I have used it extensively in the past. Maybe it is just not working in general right now?

If there is anything you have a burning desire to know (pays on other machine types etc) let me know.
Thanks for the report, Slyfox.

I ended up electing not to go, given that it's 450 miles each way for me, plus I was afraid they would not honor a Seven Stars status earned this way, plus I would only get it for one year anyway (as opposed to two if I did so in January!)

Can you find the 99.11% Double Bonus machine for $5? Or is that gone, too?

It's 5:15am right now. I suggest you get there before 6am, or the "good" machines will all be gone. I think 7 is too late. Hopefully you see this in time, as that's only 45 minutes away.

See if you can find decent $1 multiplay machines. That may be your best bet, if the paytables are okay.
Come on DD. You're a gambler. I think it is a pretty safe bet that all that get to 150K will get their 7 star card and all the benefits that come along with it. The not so safe bet is getting a decent machine. I think there will be people camped out well before 6AM for the decent machines or they will be locked down for their top players. Good luck to you Slyfox. This is all a marketing gimmick for CET and I am glad you are taking advantage of it.
