Re: [vpFREE] General level of initial play to solicit offers

 

<<Or perhaps to be told that no such general correlation exists =p>>

Wish I could help you, but I've been doing this for 31 years and found out, to my dismay, that there is no general rule – mostly I find out this info with the non-scientific trial-and-error method!!!

Re: [vpFREE] General level of initial play to solicit offers

 

Well, I especially like properties with a major hotel chain association - Downtown Grand, Tropicana LV, SLS, Cosmopolitan, Rampart, Max at Westin, Hyatt Regency in Tahoe... I'm also looking at Tropicana Laughlin and M Resort because we fully value any reduction in costs on cruises. There are a number of others (especially in Reno/Sparks) that have my multi line crack - lol - but I don't know enough about them to know who I'd want to play at.

I think what I'm looking for is something like a relationship between room rate and a fairly strong showing for initial play. Or perhaps to be told that no such general correlation exists =p

[vpFREE] Re: The Dice Challenge

 

One good thing has come out of this dice question. I googled math forums and found math.stackexchange.com. This is a question and answer forum with multi-degreed math professors answering the questions. Iaaked them about the two dice question. One of them, with the username jiehro, even went on Mendelson's forum and gave then a great clinic on dice combinatorics. Unfortunately, Alan is still stuck on 1 in 6. I just posted a tough math question on math.stackexchange related to a video keno game I'm analyzing and got a speedy respone. Those guys are a great go to if you cant solve a math problem on your own.

You will receive more answers if you give a list of properties you are considering.
The requirements for the Bellagio are far different than the 4 Queens.

Subject: [vpFREE] General level of initial play to solicit offers

Thanks to the great offers and particularly good luck I've had chasing status with a couple programs this year, I'm considering devoting some of my bankroll to establish myself with other casinos that offer my preferred games. I imagine this will generate a round of (hopefully overly generous) initial offers, and after redeeming them, I should be able to use the next round of offers to approximate the actual value of each play.

Unfortunately, while it was easy to decide on a level of play for, say, CET - 25k or 50k a day - I don't have any information on how to choose an optimal amount at each casino for these "test runs."

I know information on specific properties is likely considered something of a trade secret - and subject to change - so I'm just looking for more general advice. I'm open to private messages with details, of course ;-)

So what level of play is likely to generate some decent freeplay mailers pretty much anywhere I go, without overplaying too heavily at casinos with smaller maximum offers? The initial trip will be all single day "drop in" plays, mostly combined with sign up and multiplier promotions. I'm primarily looking at Vegas and Reno/Tahoe (as I have comped airfare for an upcoming trip) but would be interested in any other areas with several casinos within easy driving distance.

Again, I'm specifically not asking for property specific details publicly - though I'd gladly take private messages - I'm looking for more general, "5k coin in won't cut it most places, 15k is overkill a lot of the time" kind of advice. Thanks so much for the help you all have provided thus far and for any help you can provide with my planning.
