"Less progressive jackpots being awarded" is subjective and anecdotal. Nobody but the FB bean counters (and required analytical crews) know how many jackpots and at what value are being paid out. They *likely* wouldn't tighten up the slots because (a) they may be very tight already (we don't know as we're not executives nor gaming control) and (b) slots are most likely a powerful profit center at FB like they are at all casinos. Though overall revenue might not be where they want it to be, a dollar to a donut says any financial issues are related to the real estate / financing / etc related to beginning construction 17 years prior to its opening. Financial relief will be had once the financiers renegotiate deals or the property goes through bankruptcy. I was there the second day of operation so I've got no frame of reference, but I will visiting on two separate activities over Mother's Day weekend. I am curious how busy they will be on a Hallmark Holiday Weekend and a random Monday in mid-Spring.
No peloton bikes at FB, I looked for them on my trip last month. But they do have some pretty awesome equipment. Best gym on the strip. On a side note, Caesar’s has recently added 4 of them into their gym and they even sent an email saying you can your own peloton delivered to your room. You just text this number and they’ll bring one up.
If you use video poker as a guide to how loose or tight the slots are, it is comparable to the surrounding properties, Resorts World and Wynn. They have the same 9/6 DDB Double STP that I lost my butt over at RW, and 8/5 bonus spin that I lost $3k on to generate a $750 bounceback offer. Not as bad as CET by any means, but not as good as a locals casino.
