How in the world would anyone know? Those casinos do not issue
independently conducted CPA audits.

[vpFREE] Planet Hollywood RIPOFF
So apparently Planet Hollywood has decided to try to nickel and dime their customers to get back what they didnt win at the Super Bowl.
They are trying to CHARGE 49 dollars (and up) PER PERSON PER DAY to sit in the mezzanine (a giant hallway) and watch the first rounds of the NCAA Tourney on big screen TVs. Imagine that, you get to PAY for the right to BET MONEY and then watch the outcome of that which you be on.
How long before they take your bet at a craps table but charge you to be able to stand against the rail to see what the dice roll actually comes up.
Oh, yea, with the 49 dollars you get a Tshirt (wow, 5 bucks at most, but worthless to me), free beer (Id think 50 bucks on a game would get you a drink ticket, dont you?), free food (worth a little money, but not 49/person/day!) OH and you can play Golden Tee arcade games!!! Oh yea, and even though last year, you controlled where you sat by getting yourself up early and getting a good seat, this year, unless you pay MORE than 49, you are automatically several rows back.
Guess the 8 guys in my group will be going back to Hilton after the past couple years at Planet Ho.
Such a ripoff.

If they don't want people to use the coupon then they shouldn't send out the coupon!

Remove the "and" after "Sunday" and the entry will be correct. In other
words, not every Sunday, only Sunday March 20th.

I'm not sure that questioning the fairness of Indian casinos is relevant. But I can see why people think that way. There is the implication that casinos will cheat players unless (or until) they are caught. And, since Indian casinos are less monitored, BEWARE!
But, it's like trying to solve a crime where the evidence is always hidden from you. Video poker is mathematical by design. Certain card combinations come up a certain number of times in optimal play. Generally, there's only one ideal way to play a hand. And so forth.
These things occur in an "ideal" world. One plus one should always equal two. So why is your return so far off from what you'd expect?
The problem occurs when you try to apply clearly defined mathematics to an imperfect environment like a casino. You might know perfect strategy, but you can't win if the casino somehow prevents you from doing so. And, as often stated here on vpFREE, how would you even know what they're doing?
Since we never have perfect information about ANY casino, Indian or otherwise. We simply hope that gaming commissions, et al will give us all a fair chance. But, again, you never really "know" with 100% certainty, do you?
For what it's worth, my personal criteria is this: I either need to win (more than I lose). OR, I need to be treated really well (if I'm losing) in order for me to want to return to try to win. And, even then, I'm not taking indefinite unlimited chances.
In response, some of you would say (and have said), "Oh, but Keep playing if you're losing, eventually the 'math' will catch up with you".
That's certainly true. But that's in a perfect world with perfect information.
Not a casino, Indian or otherwise.

If you go to the VPFree webpage, and then go to FAQ you will find a discussion of Indian casinos. This will answer most of your questions if not all.

Re: [vpFREE] Re: Is video poker at CA Indian casinos fair?
I also want to know.. how does one know if a indian casino is legit? That is not to say that they are not. but who regulates them. It is my understanding that they are not regulated. the only constant that I see is they are igt machines and that carries some weight of course, but who actually regulates them.
