  1. #1
    The other thread got closed down before a reply, but the following multiplay 3/5/10 got downgraded over this past weekend.

    8/5 Bonus (99.17%) downgraded to 7/5 Bonus (98.07%)
    9/6 DDB (98.98%) downgraded to 9/5 DDB (97.87%)
    9/6 Jacks or Better (99.54%) downgraded to 9/5 Jacks or Better (98.45%)
    Not So Ugy Deuces 200/25/16/10/4/4 (99.73%) downgraded to Airport Illinois Deuces 200/25/15/9/4/4 (98.91%)

    Sorry about the other thread. The closure was accidental. I reopened it.

    But this is awful news.

    That means there's no better game than 200/25/15/9/4/4/3/2/1 deuces wild ("Airport Illinois 98.91%"), right?

    Guess I'll be scratching off Harrah's New Orleans as a place I play VP.

    Soon all of the 99%+ games at CET properties will be gone.

    I was also told that there is still a $100/credit 99.54% Jacks or Better, but obviously very few of us would be playing for that kind of money ($500 per hand!)

    It seems like it, out of the multiplay games DW got impacted less than the 1.1% that the other games got. Illinois/Airport Deuces is not that bad of a game when tons of people play DDB. I do remember you posted a screenshot of 9/6 Jacks or Better with 500 for 1 Royal which will be 98.88% (even at 1 coin). It has lower variance than Deuces Wild so it might be better for the limited bankrollers to play that.

    On the very same weekend, Harrah's Reno went through a downgrade which eliminated 9/6 Jacks as well.

    Thanks for putting in the return percentages of those games.
