Mar, 2006 CB for $5 PKM is only about 0.06%.
Feb, 2005 Windsor has always had $2 pickem. Denoms are $1 to $20 (CDN). I think the base cb now is a flat .2 across, it used to be less on the $5 and up (.1/.1/.125).
Jan, 2005 I was just there over the holidays and the Pick'em at the bars have been replaced with short-pays. I heard the other $1 would be gone shortly.
Dec, 2004 In the high-limit area, there are now 4 $2 PE - location details unknown. These are on the backside of the 4 $5 PE machines.

Oct, 2004 I went over to Windsor Casino to see if anything new is going on there. Nothing for the video poker player in the place,it's a vast vp wasteland. Dollar full-pay Pick'Em is about it. And the ones in the bar downstairs are now gone. I played quarter Double Bonus (9/6/5) for about an hour and only built up 7 points? I don't know what that's all about.
Sep, 2004 Casino Windsor is in the process of taking all of the $1 gamemakers w/ FP Pickem out of the bars, and replacing them w/ gamekings w/ short pay crap on them. Upstairs is done, main bar was 1/3 done as of yesterday. Talked to the tech and he said all bars were going, but he didn't think they were going to change the $1 FP by the host station. More full pay machines die in the Detroit area.
Apr, 2004 Do we, as video poker players, really give a flying fig whether Windsor Casino is closed or not? While I sympathise with the workers trying to make a fair wage, (I have made many friends there over the years) I don't go there anymore because all they have left to play is a few dollar and up Pick'Em machines. They used to have some other decent vp games and some quarter and fifty-cent Pick'Em, but took them out and changed the scale on Pick'Em to the "Rip-Off Pick'Em" that only pays 50 on the straights and 20 on the threes. Check out some of their inventory of great games: A quarter Bonus game at 94.18% " Deuces Wild 10/8/4/3 " 8/5 Double Bonus " 6/5 Jack's or Better A 50 cent progressive White Hot Aces at 96.38% A dollar progressive 7/5 JB " 10/8/4/3 Deuces Wild These are just a few of the lousy games that they offer. It shows that they absolutely have no respect for the intelligence of players who frequent their gambling emporium. Their marketing strategy stinks and it's no wonder that the Detroit casinos are killing them. So if they went out of business tomorrow, although I would feel terrible for the workers, it shouldn't bother any vp players in the area.
