Best play w/ACG $25 coupon at Golden Gate?

I'll be downtown in a couple weeks--am thinking of using ACG's coupon for $25 in free play at Golden Gate after earning 100 points ($100 coin in for slots, $200 for video poker, I believe). That's a good return for my place, but I don't recall seeing any decent JOB machines there last summer, and don't know anything about picking slot machines.

Just wondering if anyone else has played this coupon there, and if so which machine(s) you determined was best for you to use?
I played the coupon this year and last. You're right, the GG's VP selection leaves a lot to be desired. But there's so much EV in the coupon and the surrounding play that it doesn't matter too much.

The best play I've found is the 7/5 ACE$ games for dollars and (I think) quarters. It's basically a 7/5 bonus game with a big bonus if you hit four aces in sequence (don't hold your breath). There are probably some kicker games with a higher EV if you know those strategies.
They had 9/6 DDB in $ in March. That was the best I could find at the time.
I played 9/6 DDB for the promotion last time I was there. It was a 10 coin nickel machine and I hit the 5 aces with a kicker. I was thinking I had won $100 and was thrilled when the pay off ran up to $200. I forgot about playing 10 coins rather then 5.
