I have a good friend who lives there and who also used to play
VP in Las Vegas. He says he did see ONE machine that was 98%.
Everything else was much worse.
G'luck all,

This may be obvious, but since points can be used as FP at Boyd, I would usually ask for the discretionary comp if I thought there was any chance I rated it. Why give away money if you don't have to? Don't see how it would affect future marketing offers, but then what does affect marketing is often one of the great and wonderful mysteries of life....

No one has reported any information on video poker in Calgary to
vpFREE2. Casino City lists seven casinos there. Most have a few
hundred "Gaming Machines".

Maybe someone on the vpFREE Canada forum would have more info.

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.
