    Hey gang, thanks for all the info. We'll be off to Rincon in a couple of hours and will try to play majority of these older machines and see how it goes.

    One comment on Cleopatra. I've seen a lot of these appearing (again) but feel they don't play as well as older ones at the old Showboat in AC. Maybe they have been tweaked but haven't changed the name. Seems that this could be a trend with the manufacturers. Pompeii may fall into this also.

    Not sure what your schedule is like, but Valley View is 4 miles from Rincon and has a great buffet. The casino was my favorite when I lived in San Diego years ago.

    The new ones do have the weird "hiccup" thing. DH calls it the herky jerky, and swears it cheats him out of the bonus.

    Haha Michelle! Sounds like my DH who, when he was on this Mystical Unicorn kick a while back, was convinced he could stop the reels to land that 3rd bonus symbol. Thank God he wasn't one of those annoying people who bang on the screen when the unicorns roll by or he'd be a divorced man for sure.
