Could someone tell me if there are Video poker machines onn the Sillie. What demomination can you play? Also is there a slot pull on the January17 sailing? 19 more sleeps lol.:D

Yes, there are video poker machines; I believe they have 25 cent, 50 cent and $1 denominations, but not certain. You need to ask on your Roll Call board about a slot pull.

 

Have a fun cruise. :)

There is talk of a slot pull for this sailing in the roll call section not sure if it is in the works or not..... have you signed up for the meet a greet???? ;):rolleyes:

Yes....and they have a decent amount of my spending money from our Nov cruise. It sounds like I'm a sore loser, but they sure seemed "tight" to me......and since the machines are not regulated, and the cruise line sets the odds, & since they owe a lot of $$$$ for their new ship...it makes sense.

Thanks all of you for your replies. Yes we have signed up for the meet and greet JuJu. Hitner got a big kick out of your reply.my understanding of how the machines are regulated, is that they are under Nevada rules. Hope this correct but who knows.:)

They pretty much follow the Nevada rules and there is an organization of cruise lines that sets standards, etc for casinos on cruise ships. The organization, however has not teeth behind it or enforcement powers as the states do over the land based casinos. I have played many casinos on land but do not play on cruise ships because I believe the winning percentage is just not competitive because there is no competition.

 

Heres a good article on a cruise casino website which explains it pretty well.

DK thanks for your answer. The article was very informative. Maybe I'll stick to Black Jack instead of poker:D
