You can walk to Silver Dollar and Chips, but they will be locked. OK, not sure whether Chips is still going, but the Silver Dollars in Tacoma are CLOSED.

Wow, I had heard the the Silver Dollar (the one on 84th) had been slow, but... I wonder if the action at Chips has picked up any, was always a snooze-fest when I went there...not enough gamboolers (plus 3/6 as the only option)

the 20/40s and up are non-jackpot games anyway.

This is supposed to change soon at Mucks. Hopefully.

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

Taking the jackpot off the game reall dried it up. Good games > not having a drop. Also, it would be a $1 drop not a $2. Only the shittiest mini-casinos do that (like the drift-on-inn!)

When over 1/2 the table is playing Keno, I think that the 'lotto' appeal of the jackpots is a draw.

When does the Muck ever spread 15/25 other than during the mystic hours when the rest of the main casino is closed? I've only every seen 20/40+ above 10/20...

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.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! I'll repeat
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

There goes all the free dinners I was getting at the Dollar
Chips has no player card and since i'm thousands of miles away I can't check but Chips is in Lakewood. I don't know what that means but I hope it's still open or I'll be stuck playing Let It Ride at Great American Casino. heh
Well looks like I'm offically one of the muck crew now heh [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Muck =22 min away on mapquest Red Wind = 25 min away on mapquest but I think the traffic is easier going towards olympia I'm gonna have to check out the games. grrr I think the mucks "double stack" tournies will be the deciding factor.

Guys thanks FOR keeping me up to speed on this it's REALLY appreciated.
