Hopefully? $2 Jackpot drop? In this whole thread there was not one post of outrage. Amazing.

Jackpots are for suckers plain and simple. They're a ripoff. They do nothing for the economy. The house rakes off X and it's a taxable event.

The only reason the Mucks spreads a 15-25 game is to legally get a jackpot drop, and the stupid players willingly go for it.

Amazing

Amazing how you talked right out of your ass in this response.

As Stabn noted, it's only $1. $2 JP drop is a rip, especially in the smaller games where it's common at smaller rooms. That's where the outrage should be.

After taking the $1 off the 20 game, it went dry. It's slowly coming back, but still not nearly what it was. JP drops draw players to the game. People don't travel to Washington to play poker. There isn't a constant recycling player pool like LA or Vegas. Give players as much incentive to play higher as possible, within reason. Yes, playing for the JP is for suckers. Newsflash: Those suckers are who you want in your game. There are many playing 10-20 that would play 20-40 if the JP drop was put back on. What was real funny was watching the idiots who helped vote the JP drop off the big game, playing in the smaller game....for the JP! Talk about hypocritical.

They also haven't spread a 15-25 game in months. Not even sure if they spread on in the summer. In fact, it's not even on the board as being offered right now. The reason they spread that game wasn't for 'legality' reasons, though it was because the max bet for a JP game was $25. Muckleshoot set that price, not the state. The mucks can add the drop to any game they want.
