What's the story on getting the scratch cards when playing a multi-line poker game? I see in their rules and regulations that they have different sets of cards for nickel players versus quarter players, but I'm not sure about the multi-line issue.
DonDiego knows nothing about this, . . . but he is an excellent "googled".
From vegassmessageboard.com 17 August 2013: "They are issued for both 9/6 JOB and 10/7 DB. They are not issued for a 4OAK using one + wild cards. Just put the slot attendant light on and they will come buy check the screen, process and issue the scratch ticket. IIRC you need a Boyd players card inserted. I cash them all at the same time when it's time to leave.
Great beer on tap also adds to the EV if you can continue pressing the buttons correctly."
When playing VP at Main Street Station, I recommend a second players card. When they come to verify your 4 of a kind, you can leave the card in the machine and hand them the second one.
Since we know that anything that a casino does to appear advantageous to the player is surely an illusion, I've always considered the scratch cards as a way to slow the player down. Personally I always stop play to collect them, but I have noticed some players don't. I guess some folks think that time is $.
I can't imagine NOT collecting them. I'm not in it to set a speed record, I like sitting there enjoying the beauty of a 4oak on the screen while I wait for more money to be handed to me.
I'm still not sure I have an answer to my question.
If I'm playing .25 3-play JoB, and get dealt a 4oak, do I get three scratch cards? I wouldn't think so but I thought I'd ask
If I figure it out next month while I'm down there I'll let everyone know

Yes, you would get three scratch cards when dealt a quad on triple play. On any multi-line game you get scratchers for all the quads, not just one per play.
