Add- 3 upright IGT Game Kings (red glass) MG/MD have $2 NSUD, Bonus Ace$ 8/5 & Bonus Deluxe 9/6. The other 4 denominations are short pay. They are located in the southwest area, on the south wall. The one $2 NSUD currently listed must be one of these machines.

I guess I wasn't quite clear in my explanation about the 9/7/5 DB 4-ways. The old listing was for 2 banks of 8 slant-tops. These are the same machines, but they are now all linked to the same meters. The machines did not move, just there isn't any more Keno.

Forgot DW ... interesting there ... As with the other games, the higher the denomination, the better the paytable. While quarter, etc are blah, the $2 is interesting. 4000/1000/125/80/50/20/20/15/10/5 ... 99.73% ! So if you have the bankroll and a good promo is being offered, you might want to consider this. (Not as good as Tropicana $2 Bonus poker with sevens promo (100%), but better than plain $2 bonus poker or $2 jacks.)

Pioneer celebrated St. Pats Day by shorting all of the last 6 100% machines. Both sides of the bank (the recent 100% machines and the other machines that were shorted from 100% several months ago) now all have the same 10 or so games ... the "attraction" that Pioneer's signs is pushing is that they are multi-denomination (.25 .50 $1 $2)! Wow, you can now play 8/5 Jacks, 8/5 DDB, DW with 4 for 4X, Jokers with 17 for 4X, etc.. I think (didn't note for sure) that Bonus Poker was full pay 8/5 -- still not a 100% game. Some of the paytables varied by denomination -- Jokers, for instance, at $2 had 4700 royal but the 85 for 4X [98% game] but at .25 the Jokers paytable was the weird 500 for royal, 4000 for 5x, short pays for lower combinations. (I'll have to copy the entire paytable and calculate the payback). So, the best games in Pioneer are a few 9/6 J/B in .25 and $1 denominations and some 8/5 bonus poker.

There are only six machines with FPDW, JW, DB etc in the southeast portion of the casino. The only other full pay machines that I spotted are two 10/7 double bonus uprights in the southwest portion or the casino.
