Video Poker on the Dawn

There are 8 machines right in the middle. The one when standing by the ATM machine on the right side closest to you is "very loose". I won some great money, and on Saturday night before we left I hit 4 wild dueces!! There are some up by the bar, down in the counter tops, but I have never found those so lucky. Have fun!!

I wonder how crowded these machines get if there are only 8 machines

 

I found the casino less crowded in the earlier part of the day...not sure about these particular machines but there weren't many people in there the mornings I decided to try my luck....;)

On the Holiday Sailing my mom and dad always sat and played video poker at the machines at the bar. I never saw a wait for the video poker machines.

My suggestion is this: when you get the casino card, and insert it in a machine, keep using that machine for the rest of that night, especially on nights that they do drawings. Mom won two prizes from drawings because "her machine" was picked each time. She found one at the bar, and anytime that she went to the casino she used the same one. Also, dad kept using the same one he had first used, and on one of the formal nights he got a royal flush, and got a nice chunk of change while playing nickles on the machine. (I can't remember how much he got). Also, with those machines you can choose if you want nickles, dimes, quarters... and I am not sure how high they go. Have fun.

There is a block of 8 multi-denomination machines...one side of 4 is .05 and up, the other is .25 and up for 3 machines and the 4th machine is spin poker. (starting at .05). Sometimes at night the nickel side can get crowded. Over a little further is a block of I believe 10-12 quarter video poker. This is a progressive machine block and it was over $4,000 while I was on last week. However, you must play 10 quarters at a time to go for the progressive. Also, as was mentioned above, there are video poker machines at the bar and they start at a nickel. Most of the machines take up to 10 coins at a time. One of them takes 5 and a few take 20. I played mainly nickles and although I didn't get a royal, I got the 4 deuces 4 times during the week ($100 each time). DH got them once. I thought the machines were pretty loose for a ship. Have fun!
