[vpFREE] Re: Ellis mailer - perhaps major changes afoot

 

I would be weary of inquiring (written report/comment card) on your specific account where multiplier points haven't shown up. The only time I did this (2.5 years ago), they looked up my account and saw I was up a couple thousand. This lead to my departure (86s) from the property. I mostly played good games and multiplier days. Caution

[vpFREE] Re: XVP - Cruise out of New Orleans

 

Thanx to everyone who gave such interesting and helpful comments. I should have been more detailed in my query. Brad and I are experienced cruisers – this will be our 17th cruise. However, this time we are taking the Frugal Princess and her hubby and they do drink (we don't) and they are younger and more energetic. So their interests are different. Anyway, you all have given us a lot of guidance and Angela and Steve have now chosen their port activities, taking into consideration a lot of your suggestions.

Thanks to all for your help.

Re: [vpFREE] 3 or 5 Nights at Sams Town

 

Boyd is apparently doing two things.
1. Raising the bar, you now have to play more to get what you were getting.2. Looking at your win/loss not just coin in. If you have been winning on your most recent trips, expect your offers to diminish. A.P.

[vpFREE] Re: Ellis mailer - perhaps major changes afoot

 

Each multiplier only applies to the range of points listed. On the first 999 points you earn, you will end up with single points regardless of how high your total action is for the day in question. The same applies to each multiplier tier. You will never get 10X on all your action for a day. Only base points above the 5,000 level are multiplied by 10.


I think a pretty low percentage of their clientele earn more than 5K in base points on a given day.


G'luck all,
Gamb00ler

The info I received from them lists "10x available daily" but also shows the
regular monthly multiplier days as always. Can anyone clarify? Thanks.

Ellis Island 10X really means (according to boothling and manager): 0-999
daily base points get NO mulltiplier
1,000 - 1,999 daily base points get 2X
2,000 - 4,999 daily base points get 4X
5,000+ daily base points get 10X

As an expirement, I played 5,645 in action.

I got 17,310 points awarded instead of the 21,450 I SHOULD get if the
above rules are correct. I saw these rules in the manual that the boothling
consulted when I checked my base points with her and asked about
the multipliers.

I spoke to a manager who explained that "their system was a little behind
today"
and that I should get all the points when it catches up. However, I observed
that
the system was keeping up on each hand I played and the kiosk agreed with
the
display on the machine I played.

I shall follow up and report the results in a couple of days.

Under the previous tiered freeplay award system I would have received $25
today.
Instead, I got bupkiss, nada, zippo, goose egg, etc.

Sayonara, Ellis!

Although there was /is a tier system at Ellis, it is my understanding that this did not affect point multipliers. Previously, on Sundays they were giving 3X, which is closer to (but not exactly) Gambl00r's results on Feb, 1.

In any Jacks or better game in which 3-flushes and inside straights
with no high cards, etc., aren't kept, it's 21,090 times per dealt
royal, or about 1 in 31 hands.

Be careful to get back to the boat early. On the one cruise we took
on Norwegian, we would have been back later than we intended, but more
than 20 minutes before we were told the boat would leave, only to see
it leave without us, in spite of them knowing that we weren't back.
They refused to pay our expenses getting home.
