I would just like to add that the 5XMS machines at Sam's Town and Boulder Station (most likely others?) short the royal flush unless max coins are played (100 coins). I played 2 levels and hit a royal on level 2 to discover a payout of 1250*2 rather than 4000*2. I had not checked the RF pay column.
