Probably not my place to say this (and I don't know what's standard), but I would definitely not be tipping in small pots in that game.

I have not been here in awhile, I am looking at the promo sheet for October on the website and have a couple questions.

All the time the high hand payouts(4 of a kind, SF and RF) are available right?

Is aces cracked or Jacks cracked or anything like that going all the time or even certain days and times?

On fridays what does the $599/$299 mean?

On mondays what is $300 giveaway every 15 min. ?

You take 0 jackpot dollars until pot is $20 then you take $2 correct?

Thanks.

To answer the remainder of your questions...

We longer do aces or (f)aces cracked promotions but they could be back in the future.

All our promotions can only be obtained by the pot being larger than $20. We only take a jackpot drop after we have reached that amount, and the drop is $2.

Thanks for your answers.

How does the halloween ticket giveaway work?

The MNF bucs game will qualify for the bucs bucks promo?

The $599/$299 you are saying that the 1st one to get quad 4's gets $599, the 1st to get quad 5's $599 and so on and the same with 8 high straight flush, 9 high straight flush, etc. then all subsuquent of the same hand strength gets $299(no limit to how many)
Correct?

Great info yankee grinder. Can you elaborate on the high hand payouts and the progressive high hand board that has been posted right next to the cage. For example, I saw that a K high SF was paying $1400 last week. Is that only certain days/times and will this continue into Oct?

Correct?
The Halloween tournament giveaway is being given to the highest hand of the hour between the hours of 1pm-5pm twice a week.

Monday Night game will count.

As for the 599/299, that is correct.

Regular high hand payouts are done only when there is not another specific promotion in place.

Selected progressive high hands are put on the board for each day. Each specific hand goes up every day that it is not hit. For example, that K high SF might be a lot larger by now (not sure if it has been hit or not).

This promotion will continue at all operating hours and all days. Also the larger promotion for the specific hand will be given in the event of a progressive high hand is hit during the time of another promo.

Andy I really have zero idea how many they expect.

We must obviously expect over 100, as there is a 25k guaranteed for 1st place.

10-03-2011 , 12:33 PM
I hope a lot more than 100... 2nd would be a far cry from first.
