From an M Resort video poker player: It is important to note the new criteria for inactive deletion of points on the Marquee Rewards card. You need activity (earning at least a point) in the January-June, and the July-December periods to keep your points active. If you have no activity in one of those periods, your accumulated points may expire. On the positive side, this means if you play in July, your points will not expire until the next July 1, with no activity.

On 8/3/11 the Super Progressives were reported removed from the casino. They originally had a 4% total meter rise with eight 25c and $1 games around 96% payback but were downgraded a few days ago.

All the Super Progressives have been removed from the database 7/29/11 since the meter rise was lowered from 4% to 3.2%, base paytables were lowered about 1% to around 95% and they are now excluded from multipliers.

M Resort was officially acquired by Penn National Gaming June 1, 2011 after PNG purchased their debt last October. Original owner Anthony Marnell III will be the president of the property. News article about the acquisition here.

New 25c and $1 progressives have been installed with eight games having a base payback of 96.1% to 96.8%. Meter progression is a total of 4% with .5% going to each of the eight games. See Bob Dancer's 5/10/11 article for explanation: http://www.lasvegasadvisor.com/bob_dancer/2011/0510.cfm
