I was at the Venetian today and found that the updates
(copied below) from last Friday and Saturday are still
correct.
However, in addition, all the $5 video poker in the
high-limit room have been downgraded. That includes $5
9/6 JoB, 8/5 BP and 9/7 DB in single-line, 3/5/10 play
and SpinPoker. Some of the $5 JoB are still 9/6 but
have had the royal lowered from 4000 to 2500.
These downgrades only apply to $5 video poker in the
high-limit room. The database has been updated.

Between last night and this morning all of the
bank next to the progressives that formerly had $1
8/5 BP was downgraded to 7/5. All but a couple in
the bank near the high limit room has also been
downgraded.
The multiline machines are still 8/5, for now. The
token three 9/6 JOB machines are also intact for now
(at least the one isolated one was; the two on the
other side were occupied).
Quick weekend update: they've stopped short of
destroying playable video poker for now. On the one
bank of 7 machines near the high limit area three
have been downgraded to 7/5 BP. The deuces game on
those machines were downgraded as well. The other
single and multiline 8/5 BP machines near the high
limit area remain intact, as do the 3 with
9/6 JOB.
