*** MIA - *** Six seat bartop progressive table that was in the NorthEast part of the casino, at the end of the room with the main bar in it. It contained two (2) seats with 25c FPDW (100.76%) and one (1) seat with fullpay 25c JW (100.65%). It was a great play. The progressive was pretty fast. This is definitely not a very good trend. I would gladly take bets about them removing the FPDW that are in the corral !! This is the third downgrade, in less than a month !!

The 4 25C 10-coin FPDW located near the sports book have been moved to the other end of the casino. They are now located right outside the Deuces Corale room.

*** MIA - *** (6) 25c/50c/$1 100% Game Kings in NE corner of the casino near the bar/lounge. The six (6) slant-top machines in the NE corner of the casino have been downgraded. These machines on longer offer 9/5 DW (100.76 %) at any level, as they have been downgraded to 9-4-4. Also, the One-Eyed Jacks (at 100.28%) have been TOTALLY removed, at all denominations. This now makes all games in these machines payback less than 100%, even though there is still a big sign over the machines, in neon, saying "Over 100% payback machines".

*** MIA - *** (6) $1 MG/MD FPDW Game Kings in NE corner of the casino near the bar/lounge.

I walked around Skyline Casino on Boulder Hwy yesterday and couldn't find any machines with $1 10/7DB. All $1 machines and bartops were shorted to 9/7. I did find (3) .50 machines with 10/7DB at the smaller back bar. There were also (4) uprights with a linked $1 progressive that contained full-pay NSU and JOB. The meter was around $5200 at the time.

*** MIA - *** (14) 50c/$1 MG/MD 10/7 DB in Blue GameKings.

Skyline - Has changed inventory some. I always visit there on my trips to Vegas. Gone are the many 5 nickel FP Deuces and there are now many 10 nickel FP Deuces in the back room. FP Deuces 10 Quarters old uprights are are abundant throughout and there are still many 5 Quarter FPDW Slanttops. There are still the original IGT 9/6 JOB Video Poker uprights (about 16 of them) where you put the quarters in and if you win quarters drop out the bottom every play (These are very popular for some reason). A new square bartop MG 10 machine bank has FP .25 JOB, Bonus, DB and DBB with a common progressive for a royal. In addition there are JOB 9/6 $5. BARTOPS, 9/6 dollars, and quarters including some 4700 RF. Dollar Bonus, as well as Bonus, DB and DDB Full pay options are easy to find at the quarter level throughout. There are now some NSUD 10 play nickel uprights in the back room. There is NO Slot Club here, but about 3/4 of the machines are VP and the majority of them. from the oldest to the newest, offer full pay or full pay options!
