I am in Indy and usually go NW to Majestic Star where they still have $1 and $5 9/6 JoB, as well as $0.25 5-play supertimes play (only two of those, always in use, hard to get a chance to play) - so if you're Chicago-based, that's where I'd recommend -- they're in Majestic I, on the right as you approach the entrance to each of the two boats, enter the boat, turn right, VP through the first door. I think VP cash-back is 0.1% (ie, hardly worth mentioning, but better than none).
Majestic II (on the left) has a few 9/6 JoB machines, but not many and hard to find.
That said, if you have a reason to go to Louisville area, Caesars is very nice - much nicer than Majestic. I go there when I have a reason to go south (rarely, maybe twice or three times a year). The "good" $1 VP is near the poker room on the lowest level, which is where they are apparently dooing the remodeling, as per the post above. I haven't gone since Feb.
The hotel at Caesars is very nice, and they have some good restaurants too. Majestic has a good steak house, but the rest is pretty mediocre at best (unless you like hot dogs, lots of those available) - do NOT do the buffet, Wings-N-Things decent but slow service.
If you call them or go, would appreciate an update here on whether the remodeling is done, and whether it included downgrading thepaytables on those machines, or whether there are any other full-pays left.
Finally, if you play poker, Majestic I has a decent poker room on the top level, and Caesars' poker room is the largest in the midwest (I've been told) and fairly nice. Both will comp small meals for 4+ hours of play.
