[vpFREE] You never know....

 

Seems like all I do for the past two years is lose. I play a LOT of
multiline machines, usually $1 level. Today a friend took me to see the new
Duck Dynasty show at the Rio (it is closing in about 2 weeks - run if you want
to see it - enjoyable show, but won't make it on Broadway....)....
anyway... we got there a little early, so I sat at the closest machine to play a
little while waiting for a half hour for the doors to open. It was a
quarter progressive, with a small progressive ($1050) and a very bad pay table
8/5 DDB. Not the kind of machine I usually play.

So what happens? Within minutes a dealt straight flush. About 10 minutes
in, have A, K, J to a royal dealt, hold them, and get the royal! Then
quad 6s, quad 7s. My friend arrives to take me into the show. I hit the
button one more time, dealt Aces, hold them, get the kicker.

Win $1600 or so in about half an hour!

All I am thinking is 'What the F....' -- I could play (and normally do)
for 2 hours on a 5 or even a 10 play and not hit as much! Maybe it is time
to go back to single line! (And why the heck does this happen when I am
playing quarters? Are they setting quarter games at higher pay levels than
$1??) Of course, I know you are all going to say it is just a fluke, a
coincidence....but ???

Re: [vpFREE] Drawing tickets

 

I don't play at Station casinos, but I have received offers from some of the Boyd properties where I would have received bonus entries for some draws.

I'm a Vegas local. Are any of you guys from out of town getting casino offers that include a gazillion "free tickets for our drawing"? Please note, I'm not referring only to Stations.

Re: [vpFREE] Re: Stations

 

Funny. Every offer seems to have different. Mine equated to $25 play or $10
cash for every 100,000 points, which I declined

I guessed they were trying to reduce liabilities in preparation for an IPO

I got the same offer a few months ago to redeem my old Stations points that were only good for comps, not free play or cash. The offer was 4000 points = $1 free play or 10,000 points = $1 cash. If I kept the points, I could continue to use them at the normal rate of 1000 points = $1 comps.

This offer was not mandatory. "Take it or lose it" meant you would lose the offer not the points if you decided to decline the offer. I declined.

Regarding GVR. I had well over four million points that I always used for food and a good way to get me there to play. So a while ago I get a call from some new manager and was told that they will give me $1,700.00 or so to buy those old points which were worth to me over $4,000.00 in free great dinners etc.
so that was the offer take it or lose it. So I had to take the cash offer which I was not real happy about.

Wow that's pretty low, even for Stations! Just curious, were these old points from before points could be used for free play? I've still got some of them left.

I have not been to GVR since that rotten deal was given.
It used to be a great place. Got to know so many GVR employees and great friends that played. I miss those fun days, but I feel that GVR SCREWED ME BIG TIME!
So now I play elsewhere. Done!
