I recently returned from Lake Tahoe and noticed some of the new sparkling fresh video poker machines at Harrah's and Harvey's. Surprisingly the exact same games and paytables have been installed in all the machines I checked.

> Shocker! The four machines now have seven games on them that sport pay tables which return over 99%! Besides 9/6 jacks, they have 8/5 bonus poker, 9/7/5 double bonus, kings or better joker poker with a 4,700 royal and three Aces and Faces games. The Double double Aces and Faces returns 99.45. The games can be played at the $1 and $2 levels and the three machines on the opposite side of the bank offer the same games at the $5 and $10 levels.
