Tier points based not just on machine you are playing but the new software can see exactly what game you are playing. A friend clocked NSUD at $200 per tier point and 8/5 Bonus Poker at $100 per tier point. It would be nice if others would clock other tier point accruals and post, particularly 9//6 Jacks, 9/5 Jacks, 15/9 Deuces, 7/5 Bonus Poker, etc. It basically means that you can forget ever getting status higher than Emerald if you're a Video Poker player...but looking at the tier benefits I don't see much need to get a hgher tier than that anyway. Their annual trips are worthless (if you're a top tier player you get free rooms anyway) and I get more cruise invites between all the various casino chains than I can use in two lifetimes. I'd add the $500 airfare benefit to Hawaii is anemic. That's not even enough AF credit for one person's ticket. Even cheapskate Harrah's was giving 7-Star members $1200 for airfare just flying to Las Vegas.
Hopefully everyone here realizes that now that Tier Points are accruing at an unpublished rate they can flip a switch and change your point accrual to anything they want based on who you are (i.e., known Advantage Slot player they could easily make it $1000 a point to accrue tier points) and that would apply specifically to you.
