RE: [vpFREE] What to do now?

 


Take some time off from that casino.
See if they contact you and find out why you are not playing and then tell them why you are unhappy and see what happens.
If nothing, then re-assess their playable inventory and comps/offers and decide whether you want to return or not.

I think if you complain too vigorously, then they know that you had something good going on at their property which they probably wanted to eliminate.

I'm in their top tier and am seriously considering taking my play somewhere else from now on. The next closest would be Belterra Casino and resort, but it's not that convenient. What have others done in this situation? By the way they gave me $25 in food checks so I could get dinner, but they forgot to mention that they expire within 48 hours of you requesting them, so another $15 just went down the drain.

RE: [vpFREE] Re: Again, important to keep track of points at Harrahs properties

 


At some Harrahs/Caesars properties, the gaming day is different from the promotion day.

I have been at some Harrahs properties where the promotion will run from 6:00 am until midnight rather than 6:0 a.m. to 5:59 a.m. and have seen other variations for promotions as well.

Also while their play day appears to run until 6 AM, I have noticed play after midnight adds a play day on the website and therefore may very well reduce daily average too. If anyone has recent contradictory proof, I would love to be corrected.

[vpFREE] Re: Another One Bites the Dust

 

The worst part of making that leap is you are about 10 years late to the party (as far as those unique plays mickey was/is making). Them Indian Rezzes were the last frontier and have wised up considerably in the last decade. There's always Nevada, but it would be a grind these days. The best route would be learning to be a jack of all trades AP.
Add poker,bj and sports to your game. There are bigger edges in sports than most machine players would have you think.

"Ive found them very beneficial as I
weigh out my own future as an AP. Sometimes the stories say Im ready to make the leap. Other times they tell me to stick with the day job. Keep hustling, Mickey, and keep writing."

Thanks, guys. The holidays were pretty tough this year, mainly because I ran into someone. But I've got a plan now. I'm always better when I have a plan.

There are definitely drawbacks to what I do. One of the drawbacks is women. About 4 years ago there was a nice little blond coming around to see me. One day she asked me what I did for a living. But stupid me, instead of saying "risk arbitrageur," I said professional gambler. She had an ex-husband that went to Las Vegas, caught lightning in a bottle, and hit a $50,000 jackpot. He was broke a few days later. She detested gamblers and never came back around to see me.

I had a nice girlfriend here for a while. We broke up a couple of years ago over stupid stuff. She took up with someone else and I took up with a girl in Missoula. The Missoula girl was an ex-stripper. Just because she didn't strip anymore didn't mean she lost her skill at pounding a man for his money. I pulled the plug on that romance and was tickled pink to be a happy bachelor again.

That is, until New Year's Eve. I ran into my old girlfriend. We had a pleasant conversation. We just talked about dumb stuff like what we've been up to lately....and friends we have in commmon. I'm a proud man and I didn't do what I should have done. But for her I can shove my pride. The next time I run into her she is going to get my phone number written in the palm of her hand.

> ma18ks, don't give up you're day job. Dont't give up anthing like that to be someone like me. I don't recommend my lifestyle to anyone. You must understand the loneliness involved of being someone like me. If you can't tolerate the lonliness then you need to find another trade. vpFREE is a release for me. A release from the God forsaken lonliness of what i do.

[vpFREE] Sequential Royal Flush

 

Circus Circus has some 50c Aces and Eights with a high paying Sequential Royal Flush.

Do these Circus Circus machines pay on a Sequential Royal only from low to high or do they also pay on a high to low sequential?

Since the correct card hold is based on whether the potential RF hold is sequential or is not sequential, I'd like to know whether the sequential RF goes in both directions at these CC machines, so I can feel comfortable that I will be making the appropriate card hold when a potential sequential RF hold shows up.

Thanks,

ST

[vpFREE] Viejas Mailers?

 

Not much activity on the California group, so I thought I'd try reposting here.

Anyone ever got bounceback mailers from Viejas? I played to the MVP card
level which gets you $30 free slot play every day of the year. It would be a
great play for someone who lived next door to the casino! I just changed my
address to out-of-state with the hopes that their marketing department treats
non-locals differently for mailers.
