May, 2007 *** MIA - *** (1) $1 PKM Plus in Park Place to the right of the Park Place Video Poker area. (4) $2 MG 9/6 JoB uprights in the Tower Slots Room. (4) $2 MG 8/5 BP uprights in the Tower Slots Room. (1) $1 9/6 JoB in WWWest opposite the Mountain Bar.
May, 2007 Many changes are afoot in Bally’s over the past few months, most notably the removal of the $1 PKM machine located just outside the Park Place Video Poker area with a slot machine. It gets a little bit confusing after that. They have shifted some machines around - including relocating the 4 $2 JoB/BP Multigame machines out of Tower Slots and making them $1 machines in the Park Place Video Poker area instead. While the 9/6 paytable has been retained for JoB, there is no confirmation yet if they kept the BP at 8/5 or if it was downgraded. I also got word that the $1 JoB machine outside the Mountain Bar is gone (I never could find it myself). Like all the Atlantic City casinos, Bally’s has marked large areas of the casinos as non-smoking. Ok, they just put signs on top of the machines but it’s a start if you’re not keen on all the smoke like me. The Tower Slots room is still smoking, as are the table game areas. While most of Park Place Video Poker is non-smoking, the banks closest to the reception area are still smoking. So don’t expect a completely smoke free experience as you still have smoking areas directly adjacent to Park Place VP. Most of Claridge and large sections of WWW are now non-smoking, so if you like the Triple Play .25 Bonus Poker progressive machines, you may want to consider playing the bank just outside Little Joes VP area in WWW. Finally, I’d be remiss if I didn’t note that I should really change the BBC calculations to “theoretical” as it appears that percentage may change if they are running a big promotion like the 3x cashback. If anyone has any insights on the cashback calculations I’d love to hear from you. Many thanks to the people emailing changes to me and sincerest apologies for not getting this updated sooner!
