The Silverton high-limit room has lots of 8/5 BP, but that's the best I could find. It's available in various flavors: single line, Multi Strike, Spin Poker, and 3/5/10 play. Denoms range from $1 to $25, depending on the game.

I received my new card in the mail yesterday. It's called the Silverton Casino Discovery card. There are four tier levels (with slot/vp points required): Copper (0-4,999), Silver (5,000-24,999), Gold (25,000 - 99,999), Platinum (100,000-399,999) and Diamond (over 400,000). From the brochure, "Rating periods are January 1 to June 30 and July 1 to December 31. Discovery Card members qualify for their card level based on a static, 6-month rating period" with an immediate upgrade when you reach a higher level. Gold level is required for "Host privileges" and "VIP Hotel check-in." Platinum is the only level that includes Restaurant line passes, and it specifies "6 Free Room Nights/Month."

The (1) $1 JW (101.0%) has been downgraded to 17 for quads.

The lone $1 10/7 DB and the $1 9/6 JOB behind it are MIA.

The lone FPDW is gone and the 1$ 10/7 are gone.

Well, Silverton is officially a video poker wasteland. They removed their only bank of full Pay machines near Keno. The sole FPDW and couple of 10/7 DB machines are gone. On a related note, at their Spring VIP dinner a guest asked if anything could be done about the poor air circulation and resulting smoke stench and unhealthy air in the casino. The GM stated that the casino was designed 10 years ago and it would be too expensive to upgrade their air flow.

Most of the 25c FPDW and 25c/50c 10/7 DB have been removed.
