Too bad it's a demo and not for real money...

 

[GemG7]

I love Multistrike too. It's the crack cocaine of VP games.

 

[venetian]

been playing it for years at www.ledgaming.com It is at our local Indian Casinos around the state, but only at 50 play, which is a little much!

 

[The Dude]

Must...stop...playing....

Maybe I shouldn't mention that on ledgaming.com they also have our previous favorite Cash King Checkers game?

Multistrike

**coughcoughHOOVERcoughcough**

You should try the 5 play multistrike. Very addicting. Just take a big wad with you.

 

[Bruce Hamilton]

You need to take something for that cough, dude.

 

[Lord_Have_Mercy]

HA! Meister

 

[The Dude]

HA! Meister

Damn!!

**coughcoughHOOVERcoughcough**

As Ivy29 implied, yes - this game will suck up a bank roll. But it's damn fun to play.

[spearmaster]

Aw, quit complaining As I recall, you hit a straight flush at 4x on a REAL machine in Vegas last trip...

 

[The Dude]

Just jumping in here while I'm on the road in Vegas. I was chillin' at the Stardust waiting for the discussion panel at the CAC to kick off. So I found my favorite game - hee hee - and put the meister mojo to work.

Hit four dueces pat on the top line for the tune of $2000 on a $5 bet

I had the hand pay-out and all - whoop dee do!

Nice... A couple more will pay for your trip.

 

[Simmo!]

Wow that is such a cool variant Can you lobby MG to get this put in a-la Golden Goose on their VP games CM? You'd never get me off it!

Agreed.. Hopelessly addictive!!

oh my god, some one needs to put that in a cash game online.

Microgaming, enough of those crappy slots, lets get this game on for November!

 

[The Dude]

I met the developer for these games in Vegas at the G2E. There are several more highly addictive games such as these which I'm covering in the current newsletter (part II hopefully coming out tonight). And as you might know, IGT just purchased Wagerworks, so we might see these coming online in the near future at Wagerworks' casinos. MG might have missed out here.

How about somebody lobby Microgaming licensees to bring back the single deck blackjack game? Vegas Villa and Vegas Towers carry it in the download - what are all the others so terrified of?

How about Microgaming match all the other major providers - RTG, Crypto and (grunt) Playtech - and offer at least one game that pushes break-even for the player?

Microgaming excell at flishy-flashy slots and other such junk, but in terms of offering just that ONE competetive game, they're hopeless.

 

[Bruce Hamilton]

...what are all the others so terrified of?

BJ has some of the best odds for players, having card counters know what cards haven't been played increases those odds.

You're not a counter, are you, caruso?

Card-counting has no value with online blackjack as most casinos shuffle the shoe after each deal of the cards. Only at some of the live webcam places would it do any good, but I've heard that it takes forever to play and those places don't disclose how much penetration happens before the shuffle.

 

[Bruce Hamilton]

...most casinos shuffle the shoe after each deal of the cards.

We'd like to think that, but how do we know?

 

[caruso]

We'd like to think that, but how do we know?

Because they say so.

 

[Bruce Hamilton]

Because they say so.

If African Palace tells you they shuffle the shoe every hand, would you believe?

 

[tim5ny]

If African Palace tells you they shuffle the shoe every hand, would you believe?

No! but if someone said that African Palace took all the aces out of the deck I'd believe it.

 

[tim5ny]

HA! Meister

I played that in Canada at the Falls View Casino. That game bent me over and did me dry.

 

[caruso]

If African Palace tells you they shuffle the shoe every hand, would you believe?

This is a silly line. It's an established fact over the last ten years that online casino software is set up to not deal into the deck but shuffle after every hand. Most, if not all providers - including Playtech - state this.

Your original comment, about better odds in single deck game relating to B & H advantage players, is bogus as it relates to online play - but this has already been pointed out to you, for the given reason.

Microgaming licensees have nothing to fear from the single deck game, since there is no way of players gaining an edge. They all offer it in the flash, and a couple offer it in the downoad. Why do they not ALL offer it in the download? There is no autoplay option for this game, and if there were and they were terrified of bonus players autoplaying single deck for bonuses, they could simply pull it from the terms - as most do with blackjack anyway.

Single deck blackjack was the ONE Microgaming game that gave players a shot at breaking even; that this is the ONLY major supplier the majority of whose licensees break out in a cold sweat at the thought of offering just ONE decent game, speaks volumes for Microgaming. Yeah yeah, jingle-jangle flishy-flashy slots everywhere - but not ONE good, low house edge game.

Stated where? I've seen them talk about their RNG as it relates to the slot payouts, but I've never seen anything about shuffling the shoe after every hand.

You should read the game rules.

Old / Expired Link :

"Blackjack (single player)

...

Rule Exceptions: The cards are shuffled after each hand, pairs may not be re-split, and players may not draw additional cards on split Aces."

Old / Expired Link:

"Vegas Strip Blackjack is played with four standard decks of 52 playing cards that are shuffled after the completion of every game."

 

[Bruce Hamilton]

Thank you, GM... I stand corrected.

We played those Multistrikes back by the East Tower elevators in June. I didn't do so well, but my friend hit 4 of a kind on the top line twice on the machine on the far right. I was more interested in the Men In Black slots behind them. Those are so much fun!

Here's a link where you can try out Super Times Pay. Old / Expired Link If that link doesn't work, just go to actiongaming.com and click on play/play games and it takes you to them and multistrike.

Also, Jean Scott has a good Frugal Fridays column about all the variations of multi game vp's they have out or are planning at the Las Vegas Advisor site.
