I've confirmed with a host, as of April 1, there will no longer be free or
2:1 show tickets for Diamond and 7 Star members in Las Vegas. This is a
big cut in benefits, and sort of stupid, because the number of freebies was
small, but did get us into Harrahs/Caesars casinos. I just went with my
sister because of a free show (the excellent Human Nature) and played too.
Also as of April 1 you can convert Total Reward credits on 2:1 basis at any
casino any day to free play.
My host said they were "adding" benefits, such as the new TR Insider
offers. To me this is no biggie. If you play 10,000 points within a certain
period (maybe a quarter?), you get these TR Insider offers from the casino
where you played. But so far my offers have just been for things like more
slot tournaments, stuff I already was getting, maybe more tournaments, but
nothing to make me go to a casino thousands of miles away.
We've already been playing less due to lower offers at Caesars properties
such as Nola and Vegas, so now will play even less. In Vegas maybe I'll
start playing at Wynn or Bellagio again.
