We are going there for the 1st time this Sunday. As far as you know will the database still be accurate then? I was going to play Triple Bonus Poker Plus at the Majestic Star II and Double Bonus Deuces Wild at the Majestic Star. Also, you had previously mentioned that the food is not that good on these two boats. If we really get hungry, is there one dining place that would be better than another? Thank You. Evelyn

There seems to be a disturbing trend at the Majestic Star properties to poorer table game rules. In addition to BJ tables now hitting soft 17, the three card poker pair plus bet has shorted the flush from 4-1 to 3-1 giving a house edge of over 7% instead of a little over 2-1/2% (This change is a little surprising considering that the ante bonus paytable has not changed.). The MS2 (old Trump boat) has just finished recarpeting the first floor and the table games side of the second floor. In all areas that recarpeting has been done there are fewer slots. The video poker room is next and I am worried that some of the playable games will disappear. Today, I noticed that many of the video poker machines have new machine numbers hand written on the old labels. After the remodeling, I will check all the machines still on the floor and I will update.
