Casino Host Helen Stetson will be retiring the middle of August.

At Casino Monte Lago, the Aristocrat nickel Super Aces slant top machines have been removed, as have the Aristocrat nickel Double Acey Deucey slant top machines.

*** MIA - *** 5c bank of 8/5/60 SA slant-tops.

The bank of $ Pick'ems at Casino Montelago has been shorted in all denominations. The quarter bank of Pick 'ems in the next aisle was still at full pay.

Casino Montelago has Bonus Deluxe with sequential royals at the quarter level in most machines.

Casino MonteLago has a bank of new Aristocrat Super Aces VP machines with the 8/5 paytable. Nickel only; slant tops. These machines are back to back with a bank of new Aristocrat nickel slant top Double Acey Deucey Poker with a 9/6 paytable.

Casino MonteLago has Double Acey Deucey Poker: New Aristocrat nickel slant-tops; 9/6 paytable @ 99.52% according to 5-card's website, and Bonus Poker Deluxe: on selected multi denom - multi game machines with 9/6 paytable @ 99.64% according to 5-card's website.

The sports bar (upstairs) has .25 10/7 DB and the 100.6 version of KBJW. All games above .25 are short. The downstairs bar has no 100% plus games. The number of bars where one can play 100%+ VP games and have good viewing for sports are few. Other than Casino MonteLago, Brendan's Pub at Orleans is the only one I know of that has larger than standard size TV and positive games.

MonteLago has reduced the number of 25 cent FPDW machines and separated them. They have also slowed the machines down and will no longer speed them up.

The FPJW, 10/7 DB and 9/6/50000 JB bartops have been downgraded. Best bartop play is now NSUD.

Bartop machines have been downgraded, the only playable game is .25 NSUD. I saw a few FPDW scattered through the casino. As others have reported, no 2 were next to each other and the machines have been slowed. I wonder which "consultant" can be thanked for this. Anyone care to guess? FP PE in the Gamemakers remain the ONLY machines in the casino that aren't TITO.

We only found (5) FPDW $0.25 machines in the entire place.

We were just there and the database still looks correct for FPDW.

Play an average of $8000 coin-in per month and get $200 (4x$50) in bounceback per month. But earning the play on some machines, such as the FPDW, will not generate this level of bounceback.

The $1 NSUD at CM are located a few rows behind the Pick Em going toward the restrooms.
