Casino Royale lowered the payouts on their 25 cent to $2 ten play triple double machines -- the flush now pays 5 instead of 7 coins -- a loss of about 1.3%

The 50-cent, $1 and $2 Jacks or Better have been removed from the four machines near the restrooms. I stayed when they removed the 50-cent FPDW. I stayed when they removed the $1 FPDB. I stayed when they removed the $5 FPJB. Unfortunately now I see no reason to play there. For visitors the 25-cent 8/5 Bonus Poker might still be a marginal play with 0.75% CB & 0.75% comps for five hours a day along with the monthly bonus coupons and the free room coupon.
