Caesars has started to install new IGT Game King video poker machines. The first time I saw them... a few weeks ago... I thought the design was awkward so I didn't even sit down at them. They lack a "slant top."

But I played one earlier today.

It was awkward playing, but it was the only 8/5 Bonus Game at Caesars. I chatted with other players who had the same thoughts I had about the machine set up being awkward and not as comfortable as traditional slant tops.

I wrote about it here: http://www.alanbestbuys.com/id132.html

Later I was told Pechanga had similar machines, but I haven't seen them there. Has anyone else seen this design and what are your thoughts?

Do you prefer slant tops as I do?
