El Cortez Downgrades

Rich was correct. I was at EC from 12/5 - 12/7. In
addition to the
missing $.50 and $1 10/7 DB and 20/7 Jokers, I did not find
any $.25
20/7 jokers in the classic sots area (near Subway). All I
saw was
mostly 18/7 or worse. I spoke with a slot tech and he
confirmed the downgrades.

However, I did see a $.25 joker machine that paid 8,000
coins ($2K)
but the other key pay were 17/7 I think. Does anyone know
% return on this machine???

We were at the El Cortez today and found that all the 20/7 Jokers
Wild are also now gone from the room behind the Flame Restaurant
and from the area outside the high limit room. In other words,
El Cortez no longer has any 20/7 Jokers in any denomination.

We saw several of the 8000 coin royal Kings or Better Jokers there.
The complete paytable is:

1-1-2-3-5-07-15-050-100-200-1600 ... 98.48%

Thanks for your report. The database has been updated.

Considering the post below, are any of the old EC patrons still
patronizing the ancient grind joint? I suspect that the casino will
remain rather empty until some more positive changes are made. Sad
indeed! }}O:
