Went to Texas last evening to play through 5,000 points and earn $50 in
free play, collectable within the next three days.
All of the 100% games and many of the >99% games had a sticker on them
stating "This machine is not enabled for play cash promotions".
Be careful which machines you play...

In addition to not earning any of the bounce back points on these
machines, you cannot play the boucne back cash on these machines,
either.

Thursday, Palace Station added stickers to all 8/5 Bonus Poker $5 and

only they were so vigulent in averting armed buglaries and
kidnappings...

Vegasvpplayer beat me to the punch on posting this. Good OJ reference too 
However, only *some* of the multi-line machines were excluded when I was in the Palace Station high limit room on Thursday afternoon; I don't know if this changed later. I was still able to play on the "All-Star"-type machines, with 3/5/10 play available via the tabbed menus on the left of the screen.
One way you can tell for sure if a machine is excluded or not is to insert your card and look for the message "....You are xxxx points away....". If you don't get this message, the machine is probably excluded.
On Wednesday I noticed the lack of a message like I got in the previous promotion, and when the freeplay wasn't there on Thursday, I was told the single-line machines I played were now excluded, even though the stickers were not in place on Wednesday. They went ahead and gave me the freeplay anyway, then proceeded to add more stickers to the rest of the single-line machines. The manager had to bring out a printout of which machines were excluded, mainly $1-$25 Game Kings and, for some reason, the (2) $1/$2/$5 (3/5-play) machines.
Does anyone know if all single-line $1-$25 Game Kings are excluded Station-wide, or if it's just at Palace Station?

What if one plays at more than one Station on the same day? Are
points combined or might the $50 per day be available at each Station
every day?
The Texas, at least, has had a bank of video machines on which 2%
bounce back is always available. They may be 1¢ machines, though, and
I just read in last week's "Gaming Today" that 1¢ slots hold more than
10%.

I think the key is that all 8/5 Bonus Poker machines with a $5 or
above denomination option were hastily excluded by paranoid slot
management. The All Star machines at Palace Station don't have a $5
option. Given time, I'm sure they will shoot themselves in the foot
and exclude Bonus Poker in all denominations.

I stopped by Boulder Station this afternoon. Two dollar single line
and 25c SpinPoker appeared to be the highest nonexcluded coin-in
possabilities for 8/5 Bonus Poker.
I think they do have $5 (5-play) on them, as well as $2 (10-play). I agree that they will probably soon be excluded as well, but I'm still wondering about GVR etc that have a lot of multi-line machines.
Did Boulder have some $5+ single-line BP that were excluded, or some $1+ multi-line?

You are correct about there being $5 Five Play (and Triple Play).

Yes.
