The two $1 slant-top Bally's Gamemakers that had both AA and 10/7/80 DB had neither of these games. The DB was shorted to less than 10/7 (didn't bother to note whether 9/7 or worse). The two $1 uprights that had 10/7/80 DB still have it. The $1 slant-top 10/7 DB progressive is still intact.

Stayed at the Atlantis in the Conciege Tower for 4 days three nights. Limousine pickup at the airport - ontime with friendly staff. All meals and incidentals comped. Steakhouse was excellent sampled Buffalo ribeye, crab, filet mignon, lobster, escargot, shrimp etc. during my stay. Food was fresh and well prepared. Oyster Bar was excellent as well. Highly recommend fish and chips. Italian restarant so so. Service was cheerful and pinpoint. Mozzarella sticks at Cafe Alfresco is a must have. Pizza was above average (not my favorite new york style) Accrued over 750 comp dollars on 110K in action for 3 days. Won $2,100 after expenses on the back of dealt 4 oak - Aces, Straight flush, and 2 drawn Royals on ten play. Played predominantly $10/7/80 and 25C SDB 10 play. The 25c 10/7/80 are still there across from the radical royals. The $1 All American is confirmed dead but the 2 $1 10/7/80's were still going strong on the left side of the stage. Spinpokers have KBJW removed in the Sky Terrace. NSUD, SDB, TDB remains. All other entries (pickem, 5c, 10c AA $1 9/6 job 4700 etc.) in the database are confirmed and in the appropriate locations.

Atlantis has $1 10/7 DB progressive at bartops near tablegames and buffet, and $.25 10-coin multigame and multidenominational slantop machines in the Sky Terrace near the oyster bar have 10/7 DB and 10/6 DDB. The Sky Terrace is non-smoking - YAY!!

Atlantis 8-10 June - Hotel: We checked in at the rate I was quoted ($59) and were given a large room on the 11th floor in the tower which I later found out was considered a "suite". Room was clean, well-lit, spacious and was furnished very nicely. The bed was comfortable. The floor to ceiling window offered views to the North and NE to Sparks, d/t Reno, and, yes, the Peppermill. No problems with the room. Casino: The main casino was darker than I like, but surprisingly not as smoky as I remember in the past. Most of my gambling time was spent in the Sky Terrace, which is a floor (with machines and the Oyster/Sushi Bar) which sits literally above S. Virginia St. It is a smoke-free area, but the scampi/soy/garlic odors definitely pervade the area from mid-day through early evening. I'll take the trade. In stark contrast to the main casino, the Sky Terrace is well-lit, with the sun glaring through the somewhat-tinted glass roof, making the machine displays almost impossible to see at times. Still this is where I had found the 10/7 DB Spinpoker (5c), my personal weakness, back in February. To my disappointment but not surprise, the paytables have been downgraded to 9/7 for DB, but JoB was still 9/6 and NSUD is still offered. Cocktail service all over the casino was spotty at best, but the servers and the rest of the floor staff were friendly enough. In the mornings, they also offer cookies and donuts along with beverages. Gambling Anecdote. The highlight from our stay at the Atlantis was me being dealt Quad 8's on Spinpoker for $113. As I was about to play it off, Chris said, "you know, I think that's the `card of the day'". Sure enough, the nice change people came by and after a short discussion amongst themselves gave me a hand-pay of $45 (100-coin bonus times 9 lines). Restaurants: Purple Parrot Coffee Shop: Ham and Eggs for breakfast and Prime Rib special at dinner were surprisingly good. Recommended. Oyster Bar (Sky Terrace): I thought the clam chowder (served in a sourdough bread boule) was so good I ordered it for lunch two days straight. The bay shrimp cocktail was also very tasty. Reasonably priced, and highly recommended. Toucan Charlie's Buffet: We had only one meal here (dinner, comped). The selection and quantity was average. The prime rib wasn't as good as what I had had in the coffee shop. I think they also have a seafood buffet on the weekend which might be a lot better. Comps: After a total of $12K coin-in for the two nights (probably about 60/40% VP/Video Slots), I met with a host who offered me one night's room comp plus the dinner buffet. Total comp value: $93. I was hoping for a little more, but we don't have much of a history of playing there, so that may have had something to do with it. Net loss for this visit: $770 Comparisons between Atlantis and Peppermill -- here is my admittedly biased opinion of which is better: Rooms: Atlantis Casino Environment: Peppermill Casino Gaming: Atlantis Coffee Shop: Peppermill Buffet: Peppermill Seafood Restaurant: Atlantis (for now) Comps: Peppermill Downgrades: (2) 5c/10c Spinpokers in Terrace Bar along the Virginia Street windows, close to the middle, have been downgraded to 9/7 10c/25c slant-tops (some 10-coins) in Terrace Bar scattered along the Virginia Street windows have been downgraded to 9/7 10c/25c slant-tops (some 10-coins) in Terrace Bar scattered along the Virginia Street windows have been downgraded to 8/5. 10c/25c slant-tops (some 10-coins) in Terrace Bar scattered along the Virginia Street windows have been downgraded to 9/6.

After maybe three hours of quarter VP Wednesday night, I was surprised to be comped a breakfast buffet the next morning. This was my first ever comp, by the way. The boothlings were nice, but just didn't give out any information. I stopped by a couple more times during my stay, but was never told "how close" I was to any sort of comp, just that "they were sorry but they couldn't give me anything at this time". I agree with other comments on the database: the practical guy in me can't handle not knowing where I stand. I don't like that the players card simply says "welcome" when inserted. I like the countdown and the points display. So, when comparing Atlantis to Silver Legacy, I thought the hotel room at Atlantis was bigger and better, but the casino floor at Atlantis is so helter skelter and hard to maneuver around, and the comp situation is so secretive, that I feel much more comfortable at Silver Legacy. The buffet is huge and amazing. I "toured" at dinner time and couldn't believe the selection. I ate there for breakfast and it was delicious. I also ate at the Parrot coffee shop twice and was impressed with its quality as well.

Spent some time in the Atlantis this weekend and have the following confirmations and updates. Terrace Bar This is a nice, non-smoking place to play. Unlike most casino locations you have some very nice views from the machines, as you sit right over Virginia Street and can look over the mountains. The downside is, during the middle of the day, the glare on the machines can be pretty strong. By the way, I'm not much of a sushi eater but that sushi bar stays hopping, so if the level of business is any indication they may have some pretty good sushi. There are some good plays up here as well. Spinpoker: there are two Spinpoker machines along the windows close to the middle of Virginia Street. They have, in nickles and dimes, the following games: 20/7 Kings or Better Joker Poker 10/7 Double Bonus 16/10 NSU Deuces 9/6 Jacks or Better Super Aces (Bonus) [99.9%] Super Double Bonus [99.6%] Triple Double Bonus [99.5%] In the same spot there are two Multistrike Poker machines in nickles and dimes with: 10/7 Double Bonus 16/10 NSU Deuces 2 pair Joker Poker 9/6 Jacks or Better Scattered along the windows are several GameKing slant-tops with the following full pay games in quarters and dimes (but note that many of these machines are 10-coin max bet but they do have the full royal payout at 5 coins): 10/7 Double Bonus 9/6 Jacks or Better Super Double Bonus Triple Double Bonus Main Casino At the bottom of the escalators between the terrace bar and the main casino are a double bank of six machines (three on each side) with 3 50-play machines on one side and three 100-play machines on the other side. These machines have, in .01, .02, .05 & .10: 9/6 Jacks or Better Super Double Bonus Triple Double Bonus The $1 Bally Gamemaker uprights on the right hand side of the stage (as you face it) next to the steps leading to the "Radical Royals" bar with 10/7/80 Double Bonus are still there. Also, over on the other side of the Radical Royals bar are two slant-top Bally Gamemakers with $1 10/7/80 Double Bonus. General Comment: There does not appear to be any FPDW (that I'm aware of) at the Atlantis. There is a lot of great stuff though including lots of 10/7 DB around including plenty of progressives. They have good blackjack games as well as the nicest low-limit, non-smoking poker room in town. This place was really hopping this past weekend, too. Only its "don't ask, won't tell" player's club keeps it from being ranked higher in my estimation. Frankly, even there I can't complain too much since I've never actually been turned down for a comp I requested. It's just my bean-counter personality that it annoys me never to know where I stand in their system.

The (3) 5c (5-20-coins) across from vip check-in (labled keno plus) are short-pay PKM. I confirmed that the .25 and $1 PKM machines listed in the database are indeed full pay. Also, the bar at the Sportsbook has bartop 25c NSUD progressive. They have nickel and dime full pay All-American which is not reflected in the database. The 10/7 DB $1 progressive slant-tops alongside the Atrium Bar (Radical Royals) pay $50,000 for a sequential royal (either direction).

Found .05 full pay pickem across from vip checkin, 3 machine labled keno plus, take 20-coins but seem to be fp at 5 coins. 2 50 & 2 100 play machines back to back next to keno, 3 100 play mach. across from elevators to concierge towers, 3 100 & 3 50 play in a "rock tunnel" by slot club desk all have fp job & sdb , fun to play. ALL .05 3/5 & 10 play vp have 9/6 job.

There has been a steady downgrading of VP at the Atlantis over the last year or so; except for the two banks of 25c DB progressives, and the 25c DB bank at the other side of the Sky Terrace Bar(all these are very old and slow machines), most of the DB games are now 9/7 (however,
