I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to find a 9-7 machine at the GSR here in Reno.

Video poker, DDBL



Vegasrider, I spoke to you here about a year ago, after I took my one and only trip in my life to Reno. What are you talking about? Please tell me what DDBL is. In English. What is 9-7 DDBL? Thanks.

I would assume 9/7/5 Double Bonus, more commonly abbreviated as DB. People on forums occasionally misinterpret Double Bonus (DB) and Double Double Bonus (DDB). I don't think IGT would even allow a 9/7 Double Double Bonus machine in its programming. It's always 10/6 instead.

So apparently, this is big news, that there's a 9-7 Double Bonus machine in Reno? What an odd post.

Well maybe he did mean 9/7 Double Double Bonus, but I would need to see a picture to believe him.

Yes,, Double Bonus video poker. 9 credits for full house, 7 for full house. 9/6 is good but many machines will pay 8/5 or 9/5. Thatz why I was so surprised finding at that particular cssino. The largest one in Reno.

I feel like an idiot for failing to recognize DDBL as the abbreviation for Double Bonus.

I thought he had found a 9-7 Jacks-or-Better left over from Bob Stupak's Vegas World.

Hey Vegasrider, don't worry, we're just giving you the rasberries.

You do realize, I hope, that there's 9-7 Double Bonus all over the place, even in Reno. Even at Grand Sierra. It's not an endangered species.

Good luck to you.
