I have not seen full-pay 9/6 Jacks or Better video poker at the El Cortez. The only property downtown that has it that I know of is Main Street Station.
Although I don't know why you would play JOB in downtown Vegas when there are 100%+ games.

The 100%+ games are very high variance (about 3x JoB) and most don't give any comp points for those.

Four Queens has a bank of them over by their sportsbook. Problem is they share a platform with Caveman Keno and some Race Car slot game and are usually tied up by people playing those games.

Yeah, the only Vegas single deck without restricted doubling, as far as I know.
Good to know. I checked most of the stores by Binion's and found that all the DD games had no DD after split. I suppose that was true of the SD as well. The only SD I looked at were the ones that offered 3:2, but they had restrictions on DD, inc. DD on 10, 11 only. I did find a 6-deck that allowed DAS, DOA which is probably the rule for shoe games.

One of my protégés, with a youngish nerdy counter appearance, went all out one day to dress like
a street bum - a drugged-out speed-freak street bum, at my direction! His BR consisted of
individually crumbled 100s and 50s stuck into different pockets, and he practiced wild-eyed
movements in the mirror the night before. He also rehearsed bizarre low-toned self talk like "damn
damn I knew they would do this to me!" - eyes rolling upward when losing a big bet. And "Ya ya
this is it - payback time, yaaa" - eyes wide with demonic smile when winning a small bet. He
sounded like a Beavis or Butthead character.

He spread wildly from $10-150 with no heat on day shift and won $700 in 2.5 hours, proclaiming
the 'El Commode' to be a "candy store" he said that the pit-critters wouldn't go near him - I warned
him not to get rolled on the street when he left - his big problem upon leaving was that no cabs
would stop for his dangerous looking character.

He says that he is going to add another persona to his repertoire - a sluttishly flirtatious
transvestite, winking at the pit bosses and cooing "come talk to me baby!"

I think I may have played with this guy a couple of nights ago. I was trying to figure out if it was an act or if he really was a nut job.

I found out if you walk in tossing green around you'll collect a lot of attention....but heavy red to green with a couple tokes for dealers.....I got minimal heat.
