Jul, 2008 San Manuel (Highland, CA) does not offer NSUD or Bonus Poker on its 2 $5/10/25 3-play machines. The other games listed in the database are correct: 9/6 Jacks, 9/6 DDB, 8/5/60 Super Aces and 8/6 Bonus Deluxe. NSUD and 8/5 BP are still available on the 6 $5/10/25 single-line machines along with 9/6 Jacks and 9/6 DDB. San Manuel no longer rewards considerable coin-in on games with low theo like those listed above. Hosts also will tell you that you will not be comped regardless of the loss - they only consider time played and theo. The small discretionary comps mentioned a few months ago have been scrapped, and FreePlay, meal comps or gifts are only available through redemption of a member's points a la Harrahs.
Mar, 2008 San Manuel (Highland, CA) has 4 $5/10/25 9/6 DDB just as you enter High Limit. On the opposite side are 4 $5/10 (3 Play) 8/6 Bonus Deluxe returning 99.07%. Cash back is in the form of slot credits, food or merchandise at a trivial 0.1%. So for your $10000 coin-in you may redeem for a gluttonous $10 food comp. However, walk to the front of the perpetual Club Serrano line and ask for an EXECUTIVE host to be paged. The host will issue a discretionary food comp at a rate only 0.05%, but at least it doesn't come out of your own "lucrative" comp account. San Manuel also sends out occasional mailers, but the amount of FreePlay given to get you back usually barely exceeds the cost of gas to get there.
Jan, 2008 There is a bank of four $5 machines in high limit that offer Triple Play 9/6 Jacks, 9/6 DDB, 8/6 Bonus Deluxe and, best of all, 8/5/60 Super Aces. The other side features single line $5/$10 9/6 Jacks, 8/5 Bonus and NSUD. These games return 2-3% more than any of the lower denomination "junk" inside the main casino. High limit is on the far side of San Manuel. Don't park in the huge parking structure when you first arrive. Instead, go completely around the casino and park outside. Enter there and high limit is immediately to the left after you go in the door. Bring cash or establish credit - ATM fees are a ripoff $4 per transaction.
Dec, 2007 SM has single line 25c/50c/$1 Bonus Deuces (10-4-3-3) near the back. Slim pickings on other nearby games.

Sep, 2004 San Manuel Indian Bingo and Casino: 25c Pot O' Golds everywhere with either 7/5 or 8/5 JOB progs. I believe you can get a slot card, not play a single penny on it, and get discounts at many of the local businesses in the San Bernardino area. If you die, your points and benefits are non-transferable, otherwise I don't remember too much else, except the mob scene.
