I agree with you, but that bears no resemblance to what happened here.
Suncoast printed coupons in an insert that went out in the Las Vegas
Review-Journal. Note that the LVRJ claims a circulation of 167,000
thousand: http://www.lvrj.com/about/work.html
And not just one coupon, five coupons, one good each week in March.
The coupon says "Present this coupon to the B Connected Club at the
Suncoast Hotel & Casino prior to playing and earn 10X Points on Slot or
Vidoe Poker play for one day." Nowhere on the coupon does it say "...
but please don't play certain games" or "... but please don't play more
than X number of base points."
The players who were barred had presented the coupon, and then played
video poker. Please explain how that constitutes stepping on or over
any line?

You're the one repeatedly insinuating that the players involved did
something unethical or immoral. What's your source for this accusation?
It is certainly every individual's right to choose whether they wish to
give more credence to a report from a longtime widely-known member of
the video poker community or someone who created his Yahoo profile 24
hours ago.

Casinos don't usually seem too forthcoming with this sort of information,
but if you want to try, feel free to get the phone number from their
web site and report back to us.
