Those Spin Poker machines at the Orleans should be easy to spot since they have a distinctive faceplate, so maybe that bank is gone.
I have recently seen the other 25c BP Spin Poker that are listed in vpFREE2...near entrance to Canal Street Grille, in front of the Poker Room and near Players Club.

[vpFREE] Re: VegasInc: Station Casinos revamps Boarding Pass perks to entice gamblers
AT President level, I get a 2 for 1 on the buffet coupon, or 2 for 1 in China Spice ONCE during the month so NO I don't get free buffets.
Can't combinbe the coupon with points, so it is worthless, as I USED to get 75% off the buffet.
I like taking friends and relatives to dinner in the buffet. When there are 8 of us, it made for a really nice experience. Now... no longer. I did not used to worry about groceries, as there was always the option of taking friends and fmaily to the buffet. In future when I stopped gambling so much, I was used to seeing this as a cushion. Lots of "business lunches taking out clients etc.
Not only the buffet, but the regular restaurants as well. 600 pts to the dollar is like a 40% discount on their "regular" price.
Not to mention on 1/2 pt. senior Wed. hubby liked getting about $100 worth of Sushi, for the point equivalant of about $30 at "todays" prices,
(used to be 30K in points, now 100K in points)
No more!
The new point structure is going to KILL their restaurants!
Even Silverton knew they made a mistake and now has 1/2 pts all month in their cafe and mexican restaurant. I suspect stations will HAVE to do the same, after they get over the massive cashout of benefits!

Re: [vpFREE] 8/5 Bonus Poker Dream Card errors
I was playing at Orleans on their spin poker bonus poker dream card. Not
sure if it was only the four, but on 3 occasions it reccomended a pair of
8,9's over a pair of 3/4's. I had to switch it manually.
