Las Vegas Blvd. & Tropicana Corner Video Poker Check

I’m planning a day and night at the MGM Grand coming up soon so I figured I’d check the video poker pay tables available (from vpFREE, as always) and at the casinos on the four corners of Las Vegas Blvd. and Flamingo Tropicana.  I was a little surprised by what I found.

Tropicana doesn’t have a denomination under $2 for 9/6 Jacks or Better (my game) and the MGM Grand has $1 9/6 Jacks.  New York New York has 9/6 JoB as low as a quarter!

Seen as the lowest quality of the four properties it’s most surprising that Excalibur’s best video poker game is a 9/6 Bonus Poker (98.9), but that is available as little as a nickle denomination. I would play that, even though BP isn’t my favorite game.

See below for all of the video poker pay table for the casinos on Flamingo and Las Vegas Blvd.
