the 99.96% DDB at century hotel and casino no longer exists ... summarily (and sadly) wiping out the mathematically best game in the entire state.
the bank of four machines in question formerly had a choice of two DDB games: a 25c, up to 5 credit play with the 99.96 paytable; and a 1c, up to 100 credit play with a progressive for the RF, but a considerably worse paytable.
when i was in there yesterday, the 25c option is no longer available. the only option now is a single credit play (only) for $1 (no longer an option to play 1c, up to $1).
the paytable is 1, 1, 3, 4, 5, 9, 50, 80, 160, 160, 400, 50 with the progressive RF currently standing at $1025 (starting at 1000?, that's just a guess).
i didn't run the numbers to see what the expectation is for this table. i have no idea if this is now/still the best game in the casino, i didn't do a quick inventory of the machines ... instead i walked down the street and played NSUD.
i'm both sorry and surprised to see it go.
merry xmas to whom it applies, happy new year all,m.
