For a few months after the sale, Caesars Rewards program was still operating here. As of Feb 17, 2021 that ended. They are now under a Bally's Atlantic City slot club. It is tiered and they are matching tiers from Caesars. Some Caesars Rewards points earned at Bally's (including prior to the sale) were loaded into the new accounts (but not deducted from the Caesars account). Slot club clerk had no brochure on the slot program and didn't know how much it took to earn a point. Machine displays do not show points - you need to go to a kiosk. Machines still have the old labels saying $20 a point or $50 a point on some of the better VP. That may or may not still apply. Video poker inventory is unchanged so far but the letter section markers have been removed so I'm providing updates to locations.

Visited BAC on October 25th and 26th. The casino floor is undergoing a major refurbishing, section by section. The Park Place Video Poker area was taped off and under reconstruction, all those playable VP machines unavailable. Don't know when, or if, the same machines will be returned.

The 3 play $1 JoB machines (there are 6 of them, and they are not progressive) only give half the rewards and tier points as the rest of the machines in the joint.
I only saw 6 (not 8) $1 JoB machines that allowed 5-10 credits, and they were usually taken. They gave reward and tier points at the normal rate, though.
On a side note, this casino is a dump and the atmosphere is terrible.
