What world are you living in Frank? The Palms is no longer the Palms - the 9/6 Jacks are gone - from the $1/2 multiplays - one day they will wake up and realize NSU Deuces pay better than 9/6 and be gone too. Already almost anything decent is excluded from promotions, the few machines that aren't are accidents not deliberate attempts to keep a few.
They had some decent stuff in the new room in the Mint and took them out You really believe the Palms want professional players?
They have taken actions against people just for winning even fairly.
Illegal use of bingo cards? Meaning these people can be prosecuted? or did they just violate Palms rules (which is still different than illegal) or did they technically comply with the rules but find a way around the intent?
You better believe it is us versus them because that is how the casinos see it - the Palms was not always like that, it is now - I don't blame them, their profit on people who inhabit this group is non-existant.
