Video Poker?
editDoes Star City have actual "video poker machines", or just video verions of "poker machines" (i.e. slot machines)? The last time I was there, they had no actual Video Poker machines, and a Video Poker forum mentions that there were none as of 2009. -- That Don Guy (talk) 22:01, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
