As of May 2014, Annie Coleman has retired as a casino host at the Eldorado Reno.

Report from a Eldorado Reno vp player: The comp and freeplay rates at Eldorado vary by player. If they peg you as a strong player, they will be cut or (almost) eliminated. (This is explicitly stated in their players club rules, which is surprisingly honest of them, though I didn't notice it until after it'd happened to me.) I personally get about 0.02% freeplay at Eldorado now. Be warned.

Players card is $100 for 1 tier point. I checked this on JOB, JOB progressive, and NSUD at both the $0.25 & $1 denoms. That was the biggest surprise I noticed. Also, didn't check exactly, but the comp for these was close to 0.3% and free play was about 0 .1% get both at the same time.

MIA: All 100.15% LDW
MIA: All 100.17% 10/7 DB

Just received $25 "Loyalty Bonus Cash" good for the month of July. I did about $13k coin-in in May over 7 days (with a win of $2.6k). So this is about 0.2% CB in addition to the 0.5% comps.

La Strada bartops are gone with new remodel. There is a new wine bar but I did not see any machines in there. The VP has been downgraded at the Stadium bar. The best games are now at the Margarita (or Cabaret) bar and the bank outside of Brew Brothers (but only 3 have the full pay games). 9/6 JB progressives are at most bars at $1 level, $5 progressive is located inside the Gold Room only.

The (7) DB machines on the 2nd floor near the grill were downgraded weeks ago (June 2). They are also listed under LDW, SA, JW2. NSUD & JOB as being near "La Strada"-- I did not check these other games but would guess that at least the LDW was also downgraded (if not eliminated).

*** MIA - *** (16) 25c/50c/$1 MG/MD 10/7 DB Game King slant-tops near Brew Brothers. (16) 25c/50c/$1 MG/MD 15/8 Game King slant-tops near Brew Brothers.

All the Loose Deuce (100.1%) Game Kings have been downgraded to NSUD. I checked both banks by the Brew Brothers (14) and La Strada (7). In fact, there were only a handful by La Strada now, having been replaced by video slots. I agree with the database that this is a pleasant place to play with restrooms close and its relative quietness.

We spent an hour checking out the Eldorado casino which is adjacent to and connected to the Silver Legacy. That casino is full pay VP heaven! It is also attractive, clean and well maintained just like Silver Legacy. We were able to find a good number of full pay banks of machines for every game of interest to us in every denomination, and many of the machines are multi-game and multi denomination. Full Pay machines were also plentiful at 2 bars. That prompted us to visit with an executive host and after a pleasant conversation she readily offered us a comped room for an initial visit next month.
