> In Bob's article he writes "If you bring written records for several previous dates, they will usually take your word that you deserve more points. If you have a scrap of paper with a number on it, they have no way of knowing whether you just wrote that down or if it's part of your regular record-keeping system"

Another way to present evidence to a slot club to get a reward multiplier or tier bonus is to take a time/dated picture with your cell phone (if your phone doesn't have this setting there are camera apps that do)
Most of the VP machine's slot club windows now show either your name or slot card # and you tier score/how many points you have earned that day. I take a picture of it when starting and finishing play. I have used this successfully to get my multiplier adjusted.

Unless one wishes to enjoy the same hospitality another time.

I don't think Fremont will give you a hassle for not playing as much as you normally do with a four night offer.

Re: [vpFREE] Re: Coming downtown next week...coupla questions

 

If you come in under a printed offer for 4 comped nights, you don't have to play ANYTHING there if you don't want to or because there's something more attractive to you somewhere else. As the customer, the possibility of being hassled shouldn't be an issue at all. Forcing oneself to play when you really don't want to or just to make the casino execs "feel good" about your offer, only weakens the player.

I don't think Fremont will give you a hassle for not playing as much as you normally do with a four night offer. Maybe $4000 per day would work. I wouldn't do less that $2000 per day. Just my opinion.

Don't know about the Four Queens chips.

[vpFREE] M Offer

 

I received a "Preferred Bonus Point" offer from M for June 14-15. I would like to hear from someone else who also got this offer and share our understanding of this maybe-good-maybe-not offer. Please e-mail me privately for this discussion since it is not a offer for the general public so would not be of interest to most people here.

Given how the club changes are being bandied about on various blogs recently, expect to stand in line for a machine.

I predict that no later than July 8 the 6 machines with strong games will be stickered as being excluded from the RF bonus benefit.

[vpFREE] Re: downgrade

 

I must have arrive at Casino Royale one day after Vicki left. On Day 1, I found one bank of single line machines near the food court that still had 8-5 BP. The next morning, even those machines had been downgraded to 7-5.

I looked at a few Deuces paytables but saw only the 12-10 version. I did not do an exhaustive search, but I expect that management also has taken out all the 15-9 Deuces.

At least one bank of multi-line machines still had 8-5 BP when I left, but those machines are not eligible for any of CR's promotions, most notably the coupons for bonus payouts on quads.
