[vpFREE] Harry's Comment About Reno./ was Re: Coach V Harrah's AC Trip Report

 


I appreciate Harry's posts and the comments by others. Of the 2 casinos I play other than the Atlantis, one doesn't give me sufficient comps and the other has cut me off entirely. So I certainly will explore Harrah's.

But as far as the Atlantis with comps and free play is concerned, Harrah's doesn't offer me sufficient comps to make up for the higher ev of the games at the Atlantis. That is true unless they pay my airfare from Texas and give me additional consideration. I am assuming that the best ev game at Harrah's is full pay JOB.

However the Atlantis may cut me off so Harrah's may be my best alternative.

Re: [vpFREE] Harry's Comment About Reno

 

I've had exactly the same experience. I'm now Gold with less than 200 points from very small play at Tahoe in Jan., and I was Gold all of 2011. Yet all of my stays at Harrahs Reno thru May of this year have been comped, and I even made a res. in 2013 that's comped for 3 nights. I used to play fairly heavy at Reno, but that stopped in 2010. They must hold a grudge.

Atlantis Reno can't seem to let go either. I still get comped night offers there though not on weekends too like at Harrahs, and they always throw in token freeplay. So I agree, if anyone is putting in play at these places just for the free rooms, you're most likely over-doing it by a factor of 10. Go over to the Peppermill if you like to play a lot and always wonder why their offers don't seem up to snuff.

If you are maintaining your Diamond status to get free rooms in Reno, you may be overplaying. For the last three years I have been getting free room offers (2 nights anytime) at Harrah's Reno. The funny thing is that I have never put my card in Harrah's Reno - ever. I have maintained Gold status during this time period and only play about three times a year at Harvey's Lake Tahoe. I currently have a tier score of under 500 points. Just for fun, I checked to see about a four night visit at Harrah's Reno and it came back all comp. As a disclaimer, this is just my expierence and someone else may have different results.

Re: [vpFREE] Harry's Comment About Reno

 

I have not been Diamond for a year and a half, I am Platinum since then and I get free rooms everywhere except I can't get CPLV on Fri or sat nights. I never go to AC so I wouldn't know that result but my husband and I did a driving trip from Seattle down the Ca coast and to Lake Tahoe (our first time there) in June and they gave me 3 nights at Harvey's in a lake view room on the weekend comped.

LVA Question of the Day - 3 SEP 2012

Q: MRB Question to Anthony and Staff: Do you and your staff
work on the offers in the MRB all year long or mostly in the
fourth quarter, when fewer changes can take place? It must
be difficult arranging everything. I for one would like to
thank you for all of the work. It's much appreciated.
