No, it was stupid. They should have changed the FPDW to NSU Deuces and Brodie and others might have kept playing. If Harrahs wasn't happy with the NSU Deuces results (it appears today they are not at most of their casinos), they should switch to Airport Deuces, of course at that point at lot of people will probably choose to play Airport Deuces at the Airport and cut out the Harrah's nonsense entirely, or choose to play NSU Deuces at Dotty's, or move to Montana like Mickey.

Re: [vpFREE] Tropicana $200 On Us Rebate over?

 

I drove by the Tropicana today and didn't see the rebate advertised on the marquee. However, there is still a big sign about it on one of the hotel towers - "Your first $200 is on us".

P. S. New owner Penn National took over this casino a few months ago. They announced on their website that the slot club will change to their Marquee Rewards in the spring of 2016. And they now have a free shuttle to the M Resort.

From: tappr@yahoo.com

Heading to Vegas with some friends Dec 6 and was hoping to take a newbie to the Trop for the $200 rebate promotion. I checked their website and can't find the promo any longer. I e-mailed them and the response was that the promo has ended.

Can anyone confirm? Is the $200 rebate promo still on the marquee?

I am wondering if the 7x for VP on Sundays listed for the Orleans is for everyone, or only for people who get a mailer? In the past I often haven't been able to get those kind of multipliers because I didn't get a mailer. Gold Coast is having 7x points on Saturdays, according to our mailer, but again is it only for people who get the mailer????

Re: [vpFREE] Bob Dancer's LVA - 1 DEC 2015

 

I think the answer lies somewhere between the extremes. There aren't any casinos left that have so many loose machines that they are losing. There are a lot of casinos with extremely tight machines wondering where their customers have gone, There are a lot of casinos that are so tight with the comps that also wonder where their clients have gone.

The successful casino is the one that balances the quality of the games and comps to achieve a balance that attracts lots of players that are willing to give them action because they are treated fairly, while still earning a reasonable profit.

The real work comes in finding those casinos.

Regards
A.P.

[vpFREE] XVP rental cars

 



I just looked on carrentals.com and saw a $2/day rate for Economy rental car ( compact). The fees and taxes were $45 so the total price was $53 for 4 day 12/11 - 12/15 in Las Vegas. The fees seemed high based on the rental car daily rate so I looked at the details. There is a $4/day airport transport charge which I have never seen before. This company requires a shuttle from the CFC to their locations so you also get hit with the CFC charge of $3.75/day. They are located at 8174 S. Las Vegas Blvd.

I don't know if this is a mistake or a left over cyber Monday rate but I have never seen a $2/day base rate ever. I have never rented from Economy rental car before so I don't know if this is a good deal or not. If I didn't already have a $65 rate at Hertz for the same dates, I might give it a try.

On line reviews ( Yelp) haven't been very good but that is true for many rental car companies.

Car rental

[vpFREE] Re: Bob Dancer's LVA - 1 DEC 2015

 

I remember the Richard Brodie incident at Caesar's. He had a blog about his gambling escapades on the internet. He was Microsoft #7 at the time and the inventer of Microsoft Word. In his blog he said he requested that Caesars put in a couple of 3-coin hundred dollars machines. He didn't say whether he requested FPDW or even deuces wild. It is still a point of contention today whether he requested FPDW or not. I personally think it was a technician's error on a multi-game machine.

Brodie actually hit two royals on those machines in a couple of days. He had also hit two other high paying royals on Harrah's machines that year, 2007. In his blog he said he later received a letter from Harrah's barring him from all Harrah's properties which interfered with his ability to play in the WSOP. With support from other poker players Harrah's agreed to let him play.

But in his blog I believe he said that many other high rollers had received such letters from Harrah's. And when questioned about it Harrah's said they simply couldn't figure out how to make money off these players with the comps they were getting. Brodie admitted that he had lost a lot of money at video poker on Harrah's properties in past years. But when he got himself over royaled they 86'd him.

This wasn't very smart on Harrah's part. Cut back the comps, change the payscales, even revoke a players card. But give them the opportunity to keep playing.
