Posts: 96 06/14/09 13:42:37	Tags : None Hey, I figured I'd post this here rather in the VP area, as it's further down the page and hasn't seen action since November. I heard a while back that you can use the same 'basic strategy' for BP that you use for JoB, with no degradation in expected return. I never really investigated it, though, so I thought I'd ask if that's true. I MAY be in a situation where playing BP would be preferable to JoB, so I'd like to know if I need to learn a new system. thanks!

Yes, JoB and BP strategy is very similar and you should be able to use JoB's strategy on BP without much change in your return.

The B Bar at Borgata has all new machines with great pay schedules, 9/6 JOB, 9/5 DDB, believe the BP was 9/5 also but I did not play it so can not be sure. ............EdB

The point I had hoped to make is all the VP games at the B Bar give you probably the best pay schedule you will find in AC, not necessarily FP, but very good. There are plenty of machines and you can play from .25 up to $5.00, pick your poison. It is probably the most concentrated area of good VP in AC and you get comped, top shelf drinks to boot. There are lots of good VP pay schedules right outside the B Bar if the Bar Tops are not your scene. The Borgata is the place to go for good VP in AC. ............EdB

Although I don't play on the BBar machines, I play in the area right outside the BBar alongside the craps tables. There's a huge selection of machines, all denoms, all games, all hands. It is rare that I don't get a lot of play for my money, even if I don't win. Be Happy! PAULA

The new machines are great, wide screen and all. In fact, the Borg has only 2 machines with 8/5 Bonus, they are in Dollars only I think, kinda near Sea Blue and Whim in a quiet section. Although we did make a trip down on the weekend it was stressful as my Dad has gotten much worse of late; we were at SB and he usually stays put but we had to search twice for him this time. Hence, I only made a short run by myself to the Borg to use the mystery and bonus dollars. I did have a great run on the quick quads, outside the BBar. I threw in a $100, played it down to about 40 quarters with no quads. I was playing 5 play jacks when the quads, quick and regular started coming around. Talk about strategy, this game needs focus and much more decisions than most VP games. I was over 400 credits and then got dealt 4 regular sixes, good hands kept me floating and in the black. Not less than 15 minutes or so, I see four aces dealt, took myself up to 3800 quarters, kept going and made my stop number of 4000. SB took most of the profit back but we had a decent time despite our situations. Hope to make it to the Borg annd meet Ed sometime, right now things are hectic, I did get Dad on the waiting list for the VA home after going through all kinds of paperwork, just an advice to anyone with elders, do yourself a favor and get all paperwork in order when they still have their faculties intact. www.atlanticcityslots.blogspot.commy slot blog

Were were at the slant tops outside B Bar. I also was awarded $7 in comp dollars, but didn't know about them till I got home. Not that I would've used 'em down in the Cafeteria (2:1) anyway. Next time!

There are about 6 machines. They were moved there about a year ago - they used to be near the wall of Jeopardy machines, towards the restroom entry. I last saw the machines in January, and hopefully they are still there.

Posts: 106 06/18/09 10:50:08	Thanks for the update, Flip. Caesars used to have 9/6 DDB quarters near the Toga Bar, but they were removed maybe a year or so ago. 9/6 quarter JOB was still there last we knew. SB used to have 9/6 DDB near the HOB bar, but they have been removed. So, it seems that 9/6 DDB at Harrah's may also disappear. Another thought is the 8/5 progressive Bonus Poker vp at Hilton and at Ballys. These are triple play machines that we enjoy, but do not play much anymore because we stay elsewhere. Normally, we mostly play where we stay.
