8/5 BP 25-cent gone from Casino Royale

Just back from a brief 4-night trip and was sad to see (as best as I could look) that all of the 8/5 BP in 25-cent was gone (now at 7/5) from the Casino Royale. DDB down to 9/5 as well. We had the coupons to try to hit so played some anyhow, scoring 4Aces with kicker on DDB. Too bad, we have enjoyed playing there in the past. It was one of the very few (if not only) FP locations on any game in quarters on the strip.
Very sorry to hear this. I have been playing their decent (not great) VP for years and years. (8/5 BP, 9/6 DDB, 9/7 DB). They were very free and easy with comps. But they have been getting weird with their offers recently, too.
I understand there are a couple of 8/5 BP machines out on the floor somewhere, however this is certainly a disappointing move by Casino Royale. Ever since they expanded and remodeled they have cut back on all the fun VP coupons in the fun book (it's more like a blasé book now), killed the twice a day multipliers and now the 8/5 BP at the bar. Outside of the dollar Mich's, not much reason to go there. They have killed what used to be one of our favorite strip plays.
Sounds so. Sad. I have been going there for more than 20 years, didn't balk much when they took out their 9/6 Jacks. But this is just too much.

Certainly disappointed, but I can understand on the strip why they did it. Hope they keep the $1 Michelob's though. To me, was a real disappointment also when they dropped the $1 margaritas.
Was just in there. All the VP has been down-graded to normally unplayable levels (9-5 DDB, 7-5 BP, etc.). I complained to the slot attendants. Nothing they could do about it, they said, but they would relay my complaint to the boss. I told them I'd been coming there since 1991. They do have a fairly generous, if weird, system of comps and free play. I will try to analyze the overall odds in light of it and post later.
Clearly, comps and freeplay and associated fun books are intentionally opaque. I've seen some of the old, good funbook coupon offers for regular players--recently. However the VP inventory is so bad now, it's still really not worth it.

More power to you if you think you can figure it all out. Starting with the random point mulitplier.
All coupon books and monthly free slot plat have been discontinued. I was told to use up my comps as they will soon be depleted from the books. With Dennys closing for a year it hard to use your comps on food. They have also closed off the back parking lot so no more access from the strip. Might want to use up your food comps before they all disappear.
