Confirmed all FPDW. There are only six 9/6 Jacks progressives by the elevator on the second floor. These are all slant tops. On one side they are labled Draw Poker and on the other labled Bonus Poker. The two 9/6 Jacks at the top of the escalator are gone. There is one upright 9/6 Jacks in quarters at the end of a bank by the sportsbook deli very near the outside doors. It is labled Players Edge.The ones by Bingo are still there. They are the first, third and fifth machines.

*** MIA - *** The Super Aces were missing from Sam's town on our last two trips to Vegas this year. I searched everywhere.

I posted the other day that 3 machines near Willy and Jose's were going to be closed. I was at Sam's Town today and saw that the machines were changed from Ultimate X to MG/MD. The good games are 8/5 BP and 9/7 DBP in quarters, halves, and dollars.

Today at Sam's I took a complete inventory of loose deuces and here is what I found. All are in slant top boxes. 15/8  3- Across from Sportsbook elevator and Willie & Jose's restaurant  1- In separate room across from Harvest cafe. 12/8 1- End machine at bottom of escalator across main aisle from Sportsbook  2- End machines next to main room elevators across main aisle from valet parking entrance.  I changed the location descriptions as I thought that the ones in the database were somewhat vague and obscure.

The multigame machines with the 8/5 BP progressive near Roxy in Sam's Town have been downgraded to 7/5. These are the machines with a progressive for each suit.

*** MIA - *** (3) 25c Sam's Town Deuces uprights a few rows away from Sheplers.

The $ SAB game is missing from it's location by Billy Joe's Bar and I haven't been able to find it anywhere else. The 2 .25 8/5 SAB are near the entrance to the Harvest Cafe -- SF pays 300. 8/5 SAB with 250 for the SF can be found in the multistrikes at .25 and some machines at .10.

I logged many hours playing OEJ's at Sam's Town. The correct pay table is: RF=8000; WRF=500; 5oK=500; SF=250; 4oK=50; FH=25; Flush=20; Straight=10; Trips=5; 2Pairs=5; 1Pair, Aces=5 101.4%, w/o comps,BB or CB. There may be other OEJ's at ST, but the pay ER is not as high. (Very volatile and definitely need a strategy card.)

Some positive games now require $2 coin-in to earn a point, and it's been reported that some people who only play $1  10/7 DB on 6X point days no longer get any mailings. Other players of good machines have had their mailings reduced for the same level of play.
