[vpFREE] Re: Gold Coast Shuttle

 

I had not heard about this before you mentioned it. The shuttle info is on the Gold Coast website so maybe they will post the updated stops soon.

http://www.goldcoastcasino.com/stay/shuttle-service

From: bornloser1537@yahoo.com

I have heard that the Gold Coast/Orleans Shuttle to and from the Strip is to be moved again, as far as the Strip drop-off and pick-up point goes. Now at the turn-around under the Planet Hollywood "pillar", near the Forum, it is said that it will move somewhere east of the Linq ferris-wheel. Has anyone else heard of this and maybe have more definite information as to where the stop is being moved to? Again, I hear that it is to commence March 1.

Earlier this month I read this in a Las Vegas newspaper:

"Golden, which is Nevada's largest tavern operator and slot machine route company, said Monday it acquired 1,000 slot machines and other businesses from C. Lohman Games Inc., Rocky Mountain Gaming Inc. and Brandy's Shoreliner Restaurant Inc.,..."

I hope they don't remove any of the good games in Montana that some of you like to play.

Re: [vpFREE] Is the Palms trying to Drive me Crazy?

 

And to add to the confusion. I just saw this on my March mailer – Pot O' Gold multipliers on March 16 & 30 – 10x on reels and video reels and 2x on VP. with no "limits" in the details.

Subject: [vpFREE] Is the Palms trying to Drive me Crazy?

Or - Maybe I'm getting older and dumber? Maybe I've been at this game too long and should retire?

Anyway, my March Palms mailer is again talking about "Mystery Point Multipliers." Perhaps they heard about the confusion on the last couple of months of this promo – "maximum 40k bonus points on VP." Perhaps they wanted to clear up the confusion.

Well, THEY FAILED!

They did make one important clarification – specifying that multiplier on SLOTS could be up to 15x points and up to 3x points on VP. But now here is what they say: "80,000 adjusted points per day." (They didn't mention that this would be only for VP – but maybe it is for everything but why would casino ever want to limit slot players????) So now I have gone back to a quagmire of confusion. What does this new wording mean?

1. Same as before – you earn 40K and get 40K bonus if you get a 2x multiplier? – I guess if you add those together you could call that a "80000 adjustment."
2. You can get a 80,000 Bonus? For example if you get a 3x multiplier, you could play $40,000 and get an 80,000-point multiplier? I can wish/hope for that meaning, but I would bet the farm that is NOT what it means!!!!

Probably no sense asking early about this new wording, especially at the players club desk – they never seem to know what's coming up. We could wait until promo starts on the 29th and ask but I would certainly ask umpteen people to interpret it for me.

I'm going to go take a nap and rest my brain!

Re: [vpFREE] Re: Bob Dancer's LVA Column - 23 FEB 2016

 

Sometimes you just have to throw down. The first play I ever threw down on was a quarter Piggy Bankin' with 65 coins in the bank. I had a little over $20 in my pocket and no job. However, I was a pretty good credit hustler. I remember standing there debating with myself over whether I should put the play down. I figured that if I went broke I would just start all over again credit hustling.

I broke the bank on the first spin on the first play I ever put down. I'm a lucky kind of guy I guess. I ran my bankroll up above $30. And I kept on playing them Piggy Bankin's until I had video poker bankroll.
