Since you wrote that you won't be staying downtown, I think that leaves Sam's Town and Gold Coast as the only two Boyd casinos in LV that have $1 9/6 JoB.
I don't know much about comps at Sam's Town, but Gold Coast should be one of the easier places to get a comp from a host. There's usually a host in the Emerald Services room, but you need to dip an Emerald card to unlock the door. Sometimes there's also a host available to everyone at a desk in the high limit room.
Gold Coast usually has a few point multiplier days each week with 5x or 7x points.
Stations is tight with comps for video poker players, especially Red Rock. Don't know about South Point but I wouldn't be too hopeful there.
YMMV on all of the above.
