I like the free "stuff" Stations gives out, especially at Christmas.
I have often driven 26 miles one way to Red Rock for some jacket or blanket, candy or similar giveaway.
I don't hit many jackpots, none this year at Stations, and I am a recreational player, who enjoys the free food, and prizes.
Being on the do not invite list is horrible for someone like me.
I liked the free concerts, rooms, pies, blankets, souvenirs etc. that stations used to give away. What good are decent paying machines, if you don't get free stuff or mailers? Without the perks of a decent mailer, these machines are still a win for the casino.
There are lots of places that still have good machines, but Stations is the closest to where I live, so I like to play there. Are the machines a "trap?" If you play them you are identified as a do not invite player?
I still have lots of comp points, currently I am Pesident status, due to the double point days they had the first few weeks of the new program.
The last week of Oct. is when I got on this horrible list. Still don't know why. I emailed corporate, and I am awaiting an answer. Who knows if one will be forthcoming.

I hit no jackpots in over 18 months, have not been winning due to a lack of deuces, and suddenly no more double points, no more nothing!
