My bad.  Senior days are Monday and Wednesday this month aren't they.

If you thought the new promotions department idiots are a Hard Rock couldn't make things any worse, you would be wrong. You can no longer earn all 4 weekly six packs of Coke on one day. Starting in February, you can only earn two on Monday and have to return and play on Tuesday too if you want the other two six packs.

Re: [vpFREE] RE: Hitting royals decreases free play offers?

 

You get the "less heat, more bouceback" strategy by setting the royal value to zero in a strategy generator, for example for the wizard's 9-6 jacks and zero royal value:

you get something like:



PAT

4SF

HP

4FL

KQJToffsuit

LP

4ST-no gaps

3SF (no gaps, high card + one gap, two high cards + two gaps, three high cards)

AKQJoffsuit

3FL-2HC

4ST-3HC

2HCsuited

3SF (one gap, high card + two gaps)

KQJoffsuit

2HC

1HC

3SF

Re: [vpFREE] RE: Hitting royals decreases free play offers?

 

Interesting.  My Rincon mailers have always pretty much mirrored a 3 month daily average (perhaps ADT) 1 month removed, despite winning or losing.   (ie February mailer based on Oct/Nov/Dec play).  Before they changed FP to an 8 AM start time, most pros would only play between Wednesday 6 AM and Thursday 5:59 AM every 2 weeks so they could get two weeks worth of free play but all their play on one casino day to maximize ADT.

My mailers at Rincon last year were based almost entirely on results, not daily coinin. I had a daily average under $1,000 coinin for two consecutive months with 20+ visits each month and was still getting $1000+ in free play because I was losing. Couple months later I had five straight visits in the $4k to $8k per day range, but hit multiple 25c Royals and my mailers went to nothing.

Are you sure your daily average didn't go down?  That's about all that matters at Rincon.  They no mail players that try to circumvent the system by pulling their card after downloading free play.

[vpFREE] RE: Klondike Sunset Casino

 

I've stopped there a few times when going to Vegas.  I do not recall ever seeing any advertising or promotions.  Why should people want to go there?  Look at the Skyline, they're basically in the same area, and I don't see THEM going out of business.  What was the Klondike thinking?

I think my scouting notes from a couple years ago show a couple old quarter progressives, 7-5 Bonus Poker, 1/2% meter.  May have been coin droppers, I don't remember.  Nothing much besides that to write home about that I noticed.  I do remember driving past it many times and seeing one or two cars in the parking lot.  Marketing geniuses.

I hit 3 RF's last year at a strip casino. I've been no-mailed.

I was very fortunate last year at Caesar's properties.  I hit 4 RF's at the $5 denomination at 3 different locations.  One was at Caesar's Palace in LV and the others were outside Vegas.  While I still have good offers at the non-Vegas properties, CP has greatly reduced my FP offers.  I am seven star and previously got $750 free play offers at CP, now only $50!  Did winning 20k cause my offers to decrease?  I have heard that Vegas doesn't like winners but this is short sighted if true.  Now other more generous properties are getting my VP action, not Caesar's Palace.

[vpFREE] Klondike Sunset Casino

 

Stopped by today to do a scouting visit. It would appear they are preparing to close. Table games and cafe are closed. There are only a few machines left in the casino and about 2/3 of those were unplugged. Looks like they have returned all modern leased machines to manufacturers. All that remain are really old machines that they probably own.

I was surprised too. This does not pay for gas money to go there anymore.  John

Yes there's been arrests but no successful prosecutions AFAIK.   And while the charges haven't stuck....most of the 86's have.   Proceed with caution.

Re: [vpFREE] Re: sams town mulipliers

 

Valuable information, Dan.  Can someone confirm that you don't even get the "regular" 2x/3x multipliers for Sapphire/Emerald.

You get the point multipliers on sub-100% games but no multipliers at
all on any of the 100%+ games such as FPDW or 10/7 DB. On those games it
takes $4 action to get one point, and it appears that you don't even get
the double or triple points for a blue or green card.
