Don - I suspect that you play Video Poker at a very high skill level. You seem to enjoy playing a great deal of it as well. You might be amused by a visit to the Western Hotel & Casino, 899 E. Fremont St., Las Vegas. While the Western isn't as fancy as the hotel/casinos you usually visit (to say the least), it does have something going for it. It is the only Las Vegas casino I can think of that has old Video Poker machines. You can find 25¢ full pay 9/6 Jacks or Better at the Western. You can find machines that permit doubling up on a winning hand. Nearly all of their machines are not ticket in/ticket out machines. They're too old for that, and I don't think the Western will spend any money to convert their machines. I even found some machines that accept coins only, no bills! It's kind of like a Video Poker machine museum.
