Yes Wes, I agree. I had the pleasure of chatting with Tracy and his wife Becky at the Palms last Haloween as I played for Playboy strikes. He was full of fascinating conversation and I left with the impression that their accumulation of strikes was impressive.

I even met Norm Clem there too one afternoon while talking to Tracy apparently doing his thing with the machines. Norm didn't say to much but I thought he was an interesting fellow.

With the exception of Slots-A-Fun, I also found the $10 machines basicly the same. The problem with the $40 machines is that they take more money from you and more quickly than the other machines and you should be prepared when they don't hit for you.
