From a Par-a-Dice player: "I am at the Par A Dice and the 2 machines with 8-5 BP are now slot machines. Best I can find is 7-5 BP and 8-5 JOB for $1 10 slant tops by the second floor bar."

The rate to redeem points at all food outlets at all Boyd properties is now 1000 points per dollar. Previously the rate was 600 points per dollar, a 40% discount.

The 4th floor has closed.

Video poker machines on the top deck have been rearranged.

Par-A-Dice Casino is open daily from 9am until 6am. As a dockside facility, you are
free to board the casino at any time and ADMISSION IS ALWAYS FREE!

*** MIA - *** 25c MD 8/5 BP & 9/6 DDB upstairs. 25c MD 8/5 BP PROG (RF) on the Deck 2 (entrance deck) by the bar.

*** MIA - *** (1) $1 NSUD upright on the the 3rd deck.

They have (3) $5 machines in high limit which have 8/5 BP, 9/6 JoB, 9/7 DB, 15/9 DW44, but they are NOT progressive. Upstairs they have 8/5 BP, 9/6 DDB at the $0.25 and $1 levels. I did not see any 16/10 NSUD.

*** MIA - *** 25c 16/11 DDW on the top floor (non-smoking).

All DDW is gone. The 4th level of the casino is now all video poker, mostly multi-denomination, multi-game machines. The best payback I could find on any quarter game was 98.91% DW and 99.11% DB. No progressive VP of any kind. Also lots of Spin Poker, Super Times Pay and Multi-Strike with poor payback.

I was there about 2 years ago. Their standard rooms are like a Motel 6 room. Clean and adequate. I ate at the steakhouse. Meal was excellent.

Made a trip to Par A Dice in Peoria Illinois yesterday and noticed they now have some $5 Game Kings which include 9/6 Jacks or Better. There are 4 or 5 of them, on the second floor along the wall directly accross from entrance. They are out of my price range but thought someone might be interested.

Par-A-Dice has plenty of the Illinois deuces (98.91%).
