The Cosmopolitan has them, and they accrue points. I sat next to a fellow playing $20/$40 who had nearly 15,000 session points. For reference, 20,000 total points will jump you from the introductory silver card to their gold card.
Aliante Station has 3 brand new ones put in..Aliante is located at the edge of the civilized world so the machines are spreading out as far as possible..I believe at some point they will become self aware and the war against the IGT machines will begin..
I would be interested in helping put together a master list of all IGT bots in Vegas, and maybe even across the country.
When I'm in town I play probably 40hours a week against it, and I can honestly say that after several hundred hours I'm up a considerable amount playing it mostly at 20/40. That being said, I've been an online mid-high stakes LHE HU specialist for almost 10 years... and honestly I feel there are probably only a few dozen people in world that can beat the machine with its current software build.
I play a little at the Red Rock, but I've located another bot in Vegas that pays at a full comp schedule (about $110/hr at 20/40 in pure cash comp plus mailer free play which can be another $500-$1000/mo) that I play 90% of the time. Add in the rate I'm beating it for off the top and it equals a pretty nice hourly rate.
That being said I worry about putting in too much volume at this particular casino and having them adjust the comp rate, so I'd like to put together a database of all the machines so I can spread the action around more. Just having all the top tier cards has value in itself (I got the Chairman card at Stations in 2 days from Gold Status and 0 points) for mailers offering free play and comped meals and rooms.
