The best game still appears to be 7/5 BP (98.01%) available on machines at the bar and on the floor.

The bar has all new machines with the best game still 7/5 BP available in 25¢/50¢/$1 single-line, 3/5/10 play and Spin Poker. The 50 play and 100 play machines that had 7/5 BP in 10¢/20¢/25¢/50¢ are MIA.

Still nothing better than 7/5 BP (98.01%). It's available on slant-tops, uprights and at the bar. Some are 3/5/10 play and both the one 50 play and the one 100 play have 7/5 BP in 10c/20c/25c/50c.

Report from a former Casino Royale video poker player: The hotel is now a Best Western and room comps are now very difficult to get. No more coupon sheet. Best game is 7/5 BP (98%).

Only reason to go now is for the $1 Michelobs. Sad. I really liked the place. The workers are great and I have known many of them for years. But now, the games and offers aren't even as good as Harrah's , which is a very sad state of affairs. So long, Casino Royale. I will miss you.

The remaining 8/5 BP and 9/7 DB (that were recently only on multiline machines) have been downgraded. Best paytables now are 7/5 BP and lower.

All single-line 8/5 BP and 9/7 DB have been downgraded. No change to multiline.

Casino Royale lowered the payouts on their 25 cent to $2 ten play triple double machines -- the flush now pays 5 instead of 7 coins -- a loss of about 1.3%

The 50-cent, $1 and $2 Jacks or Better have been removed from the four machines near the restrooms. I stayed when they removed the 50-cent FPDW. I stayed when they removed the $1 FPDB. I stayed when they removed the $5 FPJB. Unfortunately now I see no reason to play there.

Casino/Hotel is ON the strip and the walk to the room is very short. Young, low-rolling crowd which can be very entertaining in itself. Outback Steakhouse has replaced the Italian restaurant. Usual Subway fare and so,so Denny's. Small, so drinks usually arrive quickly and floor people are easy to find. Coinless machines. Small (but clean) rooms. Street side rooms are very noisy. VP machine inventory has continued to be downgraded.
