Does anyone know where I can find these 25 cent machines? Binions used to have a bank of them but removed them. They were fun to play especially for someone like me who doesn't know the intricacies of betting at the 'big boys' tables!

I have not seen these machines at any of the large strip properties. If they are around, it might be at some downtown location. Maybe some of the poker players on this bb can help.
BTW, you're not Teddy H from the old bb are you?

Tede,
I remember first seeing these at Sam's town several years ago. They didn't last long. I ran into some at the 4 queens, across from the entrance to Hugo's. That was a couple years ago. Don't know if they're still there or not. If you find any, please let me know.

John, I'm not.

Senator, checked the 4 Queens last week. No sign of them. They are probably off on some town or on a reservation casino? Will keep trying.

Boy does this bring back memories. Those used to be my favorite machines. I wonder what the perfect play percentage was?

Bill, Good question about teh payback.

Tedde, The ones at the 4 queens were kind if hidden. I remember feeling like I was sitting under a stiarwell or something but can't remember exactly where they were.

Tede33,
Binions in the only place I can recall seeing them lately.
How about the Plaza, that seems to be the place old machins go to die?

Tede, now that you have finally posted on the Talk Vegas board, does that mean you and Bill will come with us to the next TV meet? You really have to meet this very sedate group to appreciate them. LOL
