Your post is very accurate and the slot managers should realize that a majority of baby boomers enjoy playing 9/6 Jacks or Better because the strategy is very simple. What I believe happens is this: At meetings between all the different casino department managers someone will suggest that the 9/6 JOB games be thrown out and the slot managers worry that if business continues to drop it will be in their best interest to allow a higher up manager to sacrifice a segment of their business. Knowing the politics will favor them if business turns around they are covering their own a$$es in order to keep their jobs in this volatile climate. The trust fund babies have blown their money at all the ultra lounges and now there busted. Give us back the 9/6 Jacks or Better machines because the first one to do it will see a spike in business!!!

I just don't understand why so many casinos are taking out 9/6 jacks - as
though this were a positive game for players - it just isn't. With player
errors and bankroll considerations, even the best players are going to lose
probably lose around 1% with this game, and most players are not 100%
accurate at all -- I see many Video Poker players playing who have no idea what
to hold, even on the simplest jacks or better games. I also see lots of
people playing less than 5 coins, even on progressive machines, so those
people are also going to lose more than the theoretical amounts.
