Okay, so I have a question for everyone here.
I did something stupid.
After this massive hit, they did a million verification checks and all that. I was waiting for quite some time to get paid.
Near the end of the process, one of the employees kept asking another, "Can I reset it now?" and they kept delaying her. Finally they said she could "reset it", and she did something (I forget what), and then she said I could continue playing. I said, "Actually I'm done now, can't top this".
I noticed my Royal was NOT on the screen anymore. It was some completely different set of hands. I did not look if the game had switched, but I know that her "resetting" made it change to my Royal to this new screen.
In all the excitement, I forgot to run my final 4x multiplier on those 10 hands!
I just realized it today. Of course, it was long gone when I went down to check.
But what happened here? Had the Royal stayed on screen, it would have reminded me to run the last hand (without the UX bet).
However, given that it was different, I forgot all about the 4x being there.
My questions for you VP geniuses:
1) What was this "reset" she kept talking about?
2) How come the Royal disappeared after the reset, whereas other handpays keep the same screen up, no matter how long?
3) Is it possible they stiffed me me out of $150 or so EV here by resetting the entire machine out of 4x mode?
Not a gigantic deal, but annoying. I wish I noticed at the time.
