I would guess there are between 100 and 200 UX games on the strip. Visit each one of those 2 or 3 times per day and I bet you would be close to $300. Of course it would probably take you close to sixteen hours per day to complete that.


I seriously doubt it. It may be possible if there is only one vulturing player on the strip.
But I saw so many during my short visits.
I would guess the total people doing that in Vegas no less than 50.
You could do a better job and win more than others, but you
can not get all the money yourself.
winning streaks come and go, losing streak never ends.

+ UX and must hit bys have reached critical mass. When some random tourist/ploppy starts to look through machines for multipliers, or walk by and stop at a high number on a must hit by, the plays are dead.

It's equivalent to your cabbie or bellhop talking about investing in real estate.

Of course this doesn't mean you'll never find a play but you'll have to compete against a very large population. I was playing an advantage slot and I had 4 or 5 guys stop, take a look at what I'm playing, wander around to see if I was leaving or not. Sometimes I like to pretend to get up, or cash out, and put the ticket back in just to throw them off lol.

StrictlAP, are you planning on taking pictures of each one you find with multipliers? If so, that would be great. If not, it would be interesting to know how many machines you find with abandoned multipliers, the denom of the game, and the total amount of multipliers on it. That way we would be able to know the estimate EV per machine.

i am giving this a rough run between now and the end of the month- once I get august mailers I will evaluate whether its worth it or not- too much to post every multiplier- fair to say o 22-25 machines I found multipliers on roughly 16 of them today- ranging from 5 cents to 1 dollar on average I would say mostly 25 cent and 10 cent- one 3x on all 5 lines on a dollar machine- if this is worth it I will be happy to give a complete list of the mulitpilers I find starting august first right now im just text running it- pm me if you really need any other details here that Imm not posting

Any info you can post is appreciated. I am not looking for anything specific, just wondering like you how much a hard worker could make on these. Great find on the 3X on five play dollars. That is about $50 EV right there.

its really based on location, i never really hunted for these just looked when i was there and i knew i was up a lot but never payed close attention especially since I hit a royal on one and my numbers will always be averaged up because of it- im giving it a rough trip for the next week if it works then ill do it for the entire month of august and will keep exact stats- i may start keeping total multipliers as of tomm per denom ie a 3x on one line and a 5 x on one line id count as 8 for that denom and keep each denom seperate

Yes, I would be more interested in total multipliers, number of hands, and denom. This way we could estimate EV. Of course I hope you win lots on them, but those numbers are irrelevant in the short term. The EV is what is most interesting because that is what you will get in the long term.

A simple way to do it is if you find a machine with any multipliers add up all of the multipliers, the machines with no listed multiplier should be counted as 1x. If the machine is a five play quarter game and you find a 2x and a 3x on it that would be a total of 8x. I would estimate the EV as ((8x1.25*.97)-(5x1.25)) = $3.45.

ill do it starting tomm if i remember, sometimes it s a little hard and I just start with a voucher and check the results when i leave and just record it but no usually total ev- since on this its kind of not as important with zero risk of ruin on this play and pretty much zero variance to the negative overall side ive just kept track of real reults

Besides UX, you should be vulturing everything, Mystery Progressives, Red Hot Jackpots, Indiana Jones, Rescue Spins, and any other game that presents a short term advantage, not just UX.

strictlyAP, my comment really wasn't directed towards you as I figured you are in an isolated location. It was directed towards the Las Vegas Strip players who should be able to find many of these type games.

Here is another vulturable slot game that you may find on the Strip called Rescue Spin:

At the beginning of the video, at the top of the screen you can see the game counting down, 3, 2, 1. From what I've been told the countdown starts at either 250 or 400. If you don't go into the bonus round by that many games you automatically go into the bonus round. It should be a play when you find the countdown at 90 or less. For more videos go to youtube.

I don't remember seeing any rescue spins lately on the strip. They may still be there but I only get to the strip about once a month now.

I looked for this in a few places and I couldn't find it. I think I read on some forum that it was at the Tropicana or the Flamingo or somewhere. I always get the names of those places confused, though, so it's possible that I looked in the wrong one.

Anyway, it is certainly not popular on the strip.

I wish I was that lucky. I got a 4 to a Royal on my phone today for 5-play play money with multipliers everywhere. I prayed I wouldn't hit one. I did get my wish at least, and got one regular flush...not bad...lol Lost 1500 fake credits playing 8/6 JoB in 30ish minutes. I'm cool with that. :)

Yes they were great, zero risk, high earn. I wish I had been in Vegas when they very first got here, I was in a different state (I missed a few months or something). You know how you think people you are crazy for waiting behind little old lady's to get off there machines. so they can get on, because they haven hit anything for a while and lose a ton.

On these machines, you would be crazy NOT to do that.

I assume it was for 6 players with 3 progressives. I had a good laugh watching 5 people who were together get burned by a sixth who was on his own who hit the top progressive. I don't think they were a team, just a family, or friends. But they started arguing right afterwards in a non-English language at getting shut out. I recognized the non-verbals even if I didn't understand what they were saying.

Best leftover I ever found was 50 cent 5 play 10x on EVERY HAND! Person apparently had a dealt flush and didn't want to risk playing another hand. Wow! So, I'm hoping for at least a dealt high pair and get 3 to the royal instead. While it would have been crazy to get the 20K royal, I knew it was a longshot. Think I hit 2 or 3 high pairs for just a small profit compared to what could have been. Some really clueless people out there, folks! And I appreciate all of them....
