certainly makes sense. I am sorry to hear that about the Gold
Coast. I have been doing research on good places to stay and play
for comps and offers, and had not heard much about CG. I've seen
some posts about GC offers on LVA, but did not know if they were
tourists or locals. Only heard about cleanliness, food, etc. Good
thing we are driving this time....will visit the outliers, sign up
and play some great VP! By checking database, do you mean
database on this site? I'm a newbie, so bear with me. Thanks
all!!

Michael Gaughan bought the South Point a couple of years ago.
The South Point is the place to go. Fair VP with good paytables.
9/6 VP, NSU deuces, 9/7 DBP, and 9/6 DDBP.
$1 coin in = 1 pt. 1000 pts = $3 cash back.
No tiers, cash available same day.
