The word is that the last two deuce machines will be remove next week. One is ont accepting bills and the techs said they weren't going to fix it as they were going to be removed. It will still accept quarters, but why bother! There are two DB around the corner where the Joker and DB used to be located.
  Cheers!

ALL remaining fullpay machines were being carted away at 8 AM this
morning. Cleaning up after the fleas, they were also replacing the
black carpet on the support pillars in the area with a new tan carpet,
consistent with their new ligher colors decorating theme.

REPLY: I thought that I had discovered their MIA status this morning
while walking to the poker room. Now I see that I'm just confirming
Bonnie's forecast.

One "Deuces Wild" machine remains in the same spot, but it's now 16-
10 NSUD.

Last Thursday AM, I saw two FPDW in that same spot. Both were
occupied by guys who knew how to play. To me, they were very
conspicuous early on a weekday morning, when Binion's had only about
six customers in the whole building.

I told the friend that I was walking with that the machines probably
couldn't last much longer in light of Binion's financial problems.
I don't think that saving $15/hr will prevent its bankruptcy, but
apparently a manager said, "Somebody do something."

I hadn't been inside Binion's for more than a year. The place LOOKS
nicer than at anytime in my memory, which goes back 30 years. Too
bad that it's dying, but things change and nothing lasts forever.

RIP Benny.
