That's unfortunate to hear. I really like Casino Royale, but I often played 98.91% DW44 there instead because they offered it for as cheap as pennies. Who knows if they downgraded that as well. Yeah the best on the strip is the 8/5 Aces and Eights at Circus Circus, but it's $2.50 a round. 9/6 JoB also exists at NYNY for quarters (no comps). Also good VP and good food available at Ellis Island one block east of Bally's. Also good VP available at Gold Coast and Palms, which can be shuttled to pretty easily from the strip.

I did not give them much play because their blackjack table limit is higher than I am comfortable with, and they never have any good video poker at the level I play.
