*** MIA - *** 50c/$1 9/6 JoB bartops @ Sportsbook Bar.

Harrah's Reno has frequent bounceback, at least for locals, even for minimal play. sometimes it is good for 2 weeks, but most of the time it is for a single day.

The 9/6 10 coin quarter machines (bank of 6 red) are beside the bar on the way to the East tower elevators sitting at the machines back to elevator looking directly across at a 90 degree are the blue multi denom multi game with $1,2,5 9/6 Job.

Checked the six JOB slant-tops next to the sports bar--no full pay at 5c

The (6) 25c 10 coin JOB that went MIA from upstairs are now between the sports bar and the poker tables. MG,MD Game King slant-tops, TITO. In fact, one of these machines has 10 coin 5c JoB; however, the 25c JoB on this one machine is 7/5.

Harrah's now has $5 9/6 JOB in the high-limit area.

The (2) $1 PE are definitely FP and alive and kicking. They are located along the rail of the pokerroom, all the way at the far corner. As you sit at them, you'll be facing the pokerroom with your back to the entrance. I found 9/6 JB in at least $0.50 (Didn't check all denoms) on some of the bartops (I didn't check them all) in the Sportsbook. I could not locate the 10 coin .25's near the coffee shop.

The Reno Harrah's $1 Pick'em _are_ full play (Sports Casino, next to the live poker area). I checked them yesterday.

I stayed at Harrahs Reno on January 7 through 9th, 2005. The $1.00 10/7 DB at the sports bar in the Sports Casino have been changed to 9/7 DB. The prior weekend (New Years) those where 10/7. In the main casino by the Jade Bar the are also some 9/7 DB in the machines next to the bar. All 10/7 DB have now been downgraded to 9/7. If you like 9/7 DB triple plays they do have the dollar version in the high-limit area.

25¢ 9/6 JoB 10-coin TITO is available upstairs between the coffee shop and keno. Bank of 6 machines. Full pay on the royal only at 10 coins, effectively turning them into 50¢ - location and game details are unknown.

As suspected, the NSUD machines at Harrah's Reno sports bar were downgraded at the same time as the DB. I also checked the 2 $1 PKM machines near the live poker room -- they are NOT full pay, the top 3 payouts are all short. This leaves only 99.54% $1 JOB as the best games at the northern Nevada Harrah's: Tahoe, Reno, Harveys & Bills (except maybe a progressive).

Pick-em poker MIA both $1 and .25 Dec. 04.

The two $ Pick'em at the Reno Harrah*s Sports Casino have re-appeared, they are now where they used to be- by the live poker area. The slot attendent said the 25¢ ones will also come back as soon as they finish renovationg the North Beach Deli area.
