for those that can get the Wyndham Business Card in the US it gives Wyndham Diamond which can be matched to Caesars Diamond in a few days...but love the video for those that can find 10x that's a pretty good deal!
@johnlittle8267 From what i can see, this does look like a good option for getting Caesars Diamond status. However, there are a few caveats that I can see not making it accessible to everyone. 1) it appears that getting this card requires a very high credit score. 2) Of course, you have to live in the U.S. (which you did note in your post) 3) It looks like you have to apply for the tier match every year (It does not seem to be automatic), 4) it comes with a $95/year annual fee (Actually quite reasonable for the perks it offers), and 5) There seems to be comments that the Caesars Tier match does not include the $100 celebration dinner. (Can you confirm this if you have the card?) And thanks for commenting! Very helpful.
Hey Woody, loved the video! Do you know if the casino treats this type of play as the same sort of “money-in” as slot machines? I’m thinking in terms of getting room comps for amount of play+time
@bradbrowder7 Thanks for the positive comment! Very much appreciate it. Although I'm not certain, I want to say that they would treat the 'money-in' the same as Video Poker, due to it being valued the same at $10 per tier credit. I can tell you that playing this definitely keeps the green light active for free drinks at the bar also. So if you are trying to absolutely maximize the free comps, play this method a half-dozen spins to get your drink, then move to low-value video poker, then repeat. You keep the drinks flowing, the roulette spins to expedite tier credits, and the low-value video poker to keep things engaging.
@@woodytravelsone last question, can i also just bet on the three different sets of 12’s, or on red&black, or do you think this only works if betting on numbers
@bradbrowder7 From the numbers, you should be able to bet on red/black or the 12's, however you would of course have to cover the 0/00. Also, make sure you calculate the proper wager on those spaces to minimize your loss per spin. In some circumstances, you may not be able to play offsetting bets like the strategies you've suggested. I know from experience on these machines, you can definitely place a chip on all numbers, but I can't remember if I actually tried to place offsetting bets on red/black to see if it blocked that bet. I'll be there at the end of August to try these though. If you're not already subscribed, do so, and I'll most likely post a follow-up video on theses methods after my visit. (End of shameless plug) 😀
Its better play like 5-6 hours at day , the roulete is the most game give you tiercredits , besides slots , so keep playing a lot of time , and u be diamond elite , free room , free diner , 4 beers or coffe , wine etc , no resort fee , and may be , airfrare 500-750 usd
I just finished all 8 Caesars casinos. If you search each bartop there is atleast one of these machines at each property. Some have 50 cent denom as lowest. Most are quarter.
@chrismattern6617 That's awesome you did this. I was also just in Vegas and walked around to most of the casino bars, and can confirm this is mostly true. However there were a few bars with older VP games, which I did not see roulette at. Bugsy's bar at Flamingo comes to mind. Or did you find a newer VP game there? So the good news is that there are more places to play this strategy throughout the Caesars properties.
Every bar doesn't have these machines but every Caesars Casino has multiple bars. I've seen atleast one bar at each Caesars Casino have roulette. The thing is you can have 2 curved machines next to each other and one have roulette and one not. I got all 8 Las Vegas Casino badges playing roulette at a bar top.
Please correct me if im wrong: You could also bet the .25 on every number except 0,00 youll make 9 back so its a wash. Of course if 0,00 come out youll loose 9 dollars but over time wouldnt that probably be less?
I actually tested a few permutations of this, betting $9 (omitting the 0/00) and I was shocked how many times i landed on 0 and 00 over the course of an hour or so. For this video, I wanted to remove the idea of chance from the equation, and give a hard, guaranteed number to getting to Diamond. If you're lucky, you could put a lot less into these video roulette machines to get the required number of tier credits, but you also could put a lot more in. 😀
it is the same expected value per spin, with 0 and 00 on the table, you will lose 1/19 times or about 52 cents per $10 spin. Woody's way guarantees you lose in a very consistent fashion (every time), you could also bet $10 on a single number, lose $10 most spins, and then spike a $360 payout once in a while. Over long enough time it's the same thing.
Hey there! Great video. Definitely deserves a follow and like🙏 Seeing this video makes me want to go at the end of this month for the 10x they are having! How many spins so I need in order to do it in one day? (Get the 10,000 bonus) on a 10x day. How much cash do you recommend bringing to complete it? Also is there only one of those machines in each place? I want to take a friend and hopefully we can do it together! Thank you for the help!
@money_alexxx You can increase your bet to get enough tier credits for Diamond more quickly. My examples were based on a $9.50 bet (quarter on each space), but for example, betting $1 on each space will reduce your spins by a factor of 4. If you're trying to do this as quickly as possible, this game also does not require you to wait for each outcome. You can turbo press the button to play game after game in quick succession. As for the video terminals. All of them at the bar in Horseshoe have the game, as well as the main bar in Paris. There may be others, but those I know for sure. And thanks so much for watching and subscribing. Very much appreciated.
I don't believe so, otherwise this method would show up more for ways to get status at all the various properties. Although I haven't confirmed this, supposedly offsetting bets are not always allowed on video roulette, or if they are, those roulette games won't give you any tier credits. That is why this set of Video Roulette games appears to be an exception to the rule.
@lafrankgable I have not been there, so don't have any personal experience if they have it or not. If you find it, I'd love to hear back from you at which bars you found the terminals. So far, I have only heard of them at bartops, and they seem to only be on the newest curved screen video terminals. If you find any, check the game list to see if Video Roulette is on there. If so, give the method a try and report back your results! Have fun!
@dtitan1993 The yearly 10x Tier event just finished up in Las Vegas, August 26th - 30th. I think there is an upcoming 5x Tier event in Vegas October 14th to the 18th though. Cheers!
Is your calculation for the 5x multiplier correct? I believe you would only need to earn 2,500 TC to reach Diamond in a day, bringing the cost down to $1316. 2,500 TC in a single day x5 = 12,500 and then you get the 5,000 TC bonus taking you to 17,500 total. I'm heading to Vegas over Christmas, where I'm lead to believe that there will be a 5x event and have been planning how best to reach diamond status -I'm currently sat at 2,600 TC. A single day VP grind, taking advantage of the daily TC bonus, should be (in theory at least) the cheapest method however it's also going to take HOURS and no doubt become hugely boring and tiring. As a result I had been planning to split the play over at least two, if not three or four days however I'm now wondering whether I should grind out as many points as I can in a single day VP session and then quick fire some roulette spins so I do hit my target in a day.
@ziyaa2018 Your calculation appears correct. In my video I think I only calculated the 10x multiplier with the Diamond in a day to get the lowest cost. But $1316 is what I calculated too with the 5x Multiplier plus the D.I.A.D. I'm on my way this weekend to try for Diamond and possibly Diamond Plus, with the 10x event starting on the 26th. You may be able to split your play over 2 days, getting 1000 tier credits the first day, and just under 1100 the second, which with what you already have, should get you to diamond also. (Based on a 5x Tier event) Good luck, and enjoy the ride getting there!
@jayvegas3765 Based on last year's play, I seem to recall it took several weeks to show the bonus creditsin my account. And as I have recently returned from this years 10x event, I can tell you that 1 week after my return, the bonus credits have not shown up yet. I can let you know though when I do see them appear!
@jayvegas3765 Just to confirm...If you spent $1300 during this 10x event, you should have gotten 2600 credits before any of the bonus in a day or 10x events. So with the 10x, you should be up above diamond Plus when the bonus' get applied.
@jayvegas3765 I can give you a bit more info on the amount of time it took before the 10x tier credit bonus' were awarded. At least in my case, I was there the 26th, 27th and 28th of August, and just confirmed i was awarded all the 10x tier credit bonuses on my account Sept. 7th. So in this case, just a bit over a week. I do seem to recall last year it took longer though. But i am now at Diamond Plus and will have this until the end of 2025! Woohoo!
@AllanahFigueroa Thanks for the question. So whatever tier you happen to get by the end of the year, you will continue to have until the end of the following year. In my case, I just got Diamond Plus, and will have that for the remainder of 2024, as well as all of 2025. In 2025, if you don't build your points back up, you will drop down for 2026. Cheers!
@johncheney763 If you login to your rewards account at Caesars, under the offers section, you will generally see a 3 month list of future promos, which will show you bonus tier credit events. Currently, there are 2 upcoming 5x tier credit bonus'. One October 14th to the 18th, and one November 13th to the 20th, 2024. Cheers!
Great info, confusing is that going in on a 10x tier multi and getting the 24 hour tier bonus, wouldn't that be only 500 tier credits needed for diamond? 500tier x 10 = 5000, plus 10k bonus = 15k?
@MrTKO I originally figured it this way, but the points last year did not get calculated in this fashion. It appears that Caesars doesn't calculate a 10x multiplier and the 24 hour tier bonus together. So for example, if you were to naturally get 1000 tier credits in a 24 hour period, and during the 10x tier event, the math would look something like this. 1000 Tier Credits (in 24 Hours) x Bonus of 1000 additional Tier Credits = 2000 Tier Credits. Then they would also calculate the 1000 tier credits x 10x Tier multiplier = 10,000 tier credits. Then they add the two together to get 12000 tier credits. Which is still short 3000 credits from Diamond.
@@woodytravels so pretty much the 24hour bonus is not going to work with the 10x event so in turn we need to get 1500 tier credit hence your calculations of $750or so to get diamond.
@MrTKO Correct. The 10x event is really the best option to supercharge your way to Diamond. I'm planning to go to this years 10x event in late August. I'll probably make a follow-up video with my findings, should they change, or if I find an even better way to get to Diamond/Diamond Plus.
This is great information. I'd just to be wary of a casino welching on their promo/rewards program because you're betting on both sides of a bet. Do they have craps machines that this would work on?
@daaaaaaaaniel Thanks for commenting. You're right that they could change the machines, but it has been like this for at least a year, or longer. And although I don't have a definitive answer on whether or not video craps will work, I seriously doubt it. In addition, this method only works on these select video terminals, which do not have a craps game that you can pick from.
@KattSavesCT Actually, I believe there is a 10x tier multiplier event August 26th to 28th, 2024 in Vegas, and possibly in Atlantic City also. Not 100% sure about AC though, but I'm planning to work this system to get to Diamond Plus on those days. What better reason for a trip to Vegas.
@The_real_Toddington If you are referring to the resort fee, then at the diamond level and above, that fee is waived, which is a valuable perk. However the resort fee itself has not been $25 in a very long time, and depending on the hotel, sits around $50/night, if you're unlucky enough to have to pay it.
I just got the diamond status at ceasars windsor. Still trying to figure out all the perks. I usually get rooms comp and pay a fee of 25 but a resort I imagine would be different. @woodytravels
@dantespears713 Thanks for watching. Is that a Caesars property? And if so, do you know if they have those specific video terminals? I'd love to find out.
Playing video poker poorly would give you much better odds than roulette. Learn to play vp well, and your odds will improve even more. Play a multi hand vp machine for diamond in a day or point multiplier events. Play the best schedule you can find at the lowest denomination. Much less risk than literally donating money to roulette. BTW, a word to the wise about 10x multiplier events: It will be crowded and the machines you wan to play will be in high demand. Have some backups in mind!
Video poker is probably my favourite game when visiting Vegas, and I play a lot. I'm no where near a perfect player, but would say I'm maybe a touch above average. However in my time playing, I've never been able to accumulate the number of tier credits that the method in this video shows. The problem comes down to volatility. Yes, you can find a video poker machine with 98% RTP. But this number represents the percentage over a very large number of hands. In the short term, if you put $1000 into a video poker machine, you could lose it all in 20 minutes (Witnessed by @TheJackpotGents, who I would say play video poker at close to perfect.). In the method in this video, there is zero volatility. With optimal tier multipliers, put in just around $750 and walk away with Diamond status. Whereas with video poker and the same amount of buy-in, you might come out with the required number of tier credits, but you may not. Even playing perfectly. Now is it more fun to play video poker to get your tier credits? Absolutely. But can you put in $750 and guarantee diamond status? Absolutely not. To your point about the 10x tier multiplier events. Although when i was in town for the last time they had this event, I was surprised that machines weren't as busy as I expected. However you make a great point that you should have backup games or play at off times to get around the influx of traffic. Cheers!
I do play vp perfect. I am platinum at mgm with 400000 tier. Diamond elite. Penn elite status . The vol in vp is difficult to cope with. Profitable every year 2015 until now. Profit is my driver. Chasing tier can = losses. This method can improve outcome to 7 stars. Will consider. Thanks.
I actually have not tried this at MGM, but there may be a small number of video roulette machines there that will allow for this same betting structure. However, supposedly most will not allow for the betting of all spaces, or offsetting bets.
I believe if you get the Caesar's credit card you can get 5k tier credits by putting $5k on it every year to further cut down the amount you need to gamble
Very true. That does give you a rolling start to the 15K diamond status, bringing down the number of credits needed using the method in the video. Unfortunately, this card is only available for U.S. citizens, so does not work for me here in Canada. Thanks for sharing!
Also one thing to add is every time you buy something use your players card you’ll get tier credit and reward credits I’m a diamond plus member and I get even more benefits
@albertsolorio5464 Very true. I always put any Caesars property purchases on my room to maximize additional tier/reward credits. The funny thing is that I tend to get some of these removed at the end of the trip by my host, so of course don't end up getting those credits. But I guess FREE is even better, so absolutely no complaints here.
Thanks for reaching out. You put 25 cents on each numbered space as well as the zero and double zero. You're guaranteed a hit, winning $9.00 back. Just keep repeating the bet, and the tier credits will accumulate. Of course you can double, triple your bet to speed this up and get tier credits even faster. But you might as well take advantage of the steady supply of free drinks that you'll be offered. So I'm in no hurry when i work this system.
@dtitan1993 The locations that I mentioned in the video were where I had specifically been to that had these curved video terminals. Since this video, I have confirmed they are at pretty much every Caesars resort on the strip, albeit a bit sparse in Caesars Palace. I found one or two at the Galleria Bar, but the 2 that I found only had Roulette at 50cents. Most of them did not have Roulette listed.
Thanks for commenting. Do you know where in Harrahs and Caesars these terminals are located? Were they also the newer curved machines at bars in those properties? When I was there last, I didn't find any at Harrahs (earlier this year), but don't think i did a big search at Caesars!
@@woodytravels for Caesar’s palace there’s 2 bars in the entrance of the valet near check in. Both bars have those curve machines. And for harrahs is the nice bar called the lounge accross the sports book
Be aware, there are 3 levels of diamond, diamond basic virtually gets you nothing but some discounted rooms and free parking, if you are not gambling after reaching diamond and think they will give you complimentary rooms for the rest of the year it probably wont happen. Free rooms for basic diamond on busy holidays may put you in the low end hotels, good luck for Caesars, planet hollywood, or Paris.
@golfgambler Thanks for commenting and the tip. I was aware of the 3 levels, and last year, had only made it to the basic Diamond level. At that time, I seemed to get a larger selection of better hotels to chose from. My guess is that when you first reach Diamond, Caesars doesn't have enough data on you, so gives you a bit more, in hopes of your gambling level will will match. However, if you don't play enough, they will dial back the perks to the lesser quality resorts, and fewer weekend/holiday times. This year, I was able to get to Diamond Plus, and will update this channel should I see an uptick in comps. Cheers!
@CRSALSERO Thanks for pointing that out. And I'll be there to try and get myself to Diamond and possibly Diamond Plus for the coming year. 😀 10x Tier event is I believe from the 26th to the 30th of August.
@nobazn Thanks for commenting! Unfortunately that would not work, as each video terminal generates its own roulette spin, so playing black on one and red on the other could result in both spins losing. I know this is something done at the roulette tables, but is frowned upon, and can get you kicked out if they catch you playing together. Also, keep in mind that you also would have to bet the 0/00 or you risk the loss of a spin even if you could cover both black and red numbers. Cheers!
@chrisdurig5423 I wish i had an answer for you. I hope someone with first-hand knowledge can chime in and answer your question. If I go to AC in the near future, I'll definitely look to see if this method is available there though.
@@chrisdurig5423 no luck. I've checked all properties in AC. All the machines do not have roulette. In addition all electronic roulette do not award any tier credits. I did achieve the diamond although I was halfway there at 7500 before. I acquired the additional 750 playing a couple of great low variance slots like Legend of the Phoenix. Lost like $300 total
@jhoetjes Thanks for letting us know about the lack of that game in AC. Did you see the newer curved Video Terminals there? It's been quite a while since I visited.
@lucy2die How do you know that timeframe for this to go away? Based on the fact that Roulette is showing up on a good portion of the curved Video Terminals, it seems odd that they would pick a date to remove the game. If they were concerned it was being abused, they would have done this long ago I would think. And I also have seen the game in MGM properties, and at Resorts World, as well as Fountainebleau. The game seems to be showing up in more and more places.
The 3 locations that I know about to play this specific video Roulette are as follows: Paris Las Vegas, Central Bar Horseshoe Las Vegas, Sully's Bar Guy Fieri's Flavortown Restaurant, Bar area (Just outside of Horseshoe, walkway to Paris) In all cases, the bar top Video Terminals are all the newer curved screen style. I have yet to find this Video roulette in any other areas, so let me know if you happen to locate any elsewhere!
How long does it take to do 3,000 (or worse yet, 5,000) video roulette spins? Sounds like a (really boring) job to me, esp. given you know the outcome of every spin is going to be a 50 cent loss. Wouldn’t it make more sense to max out the wager amount and accumulate more tier credits per spin?
@thevoiceofreason5589 Absolutely you can increase your bet amount to reduce the number of spins. Although I'm not 100% sure, casinos will use the wager and time played to affect the size of your benefits when you hit Diamond status. From what i have read, they generally like multiple hour sessions and will increase your amount of free play in your offers to match. So you may actually not get as much free play down the line if you make fewer, larger bets in smaller sessions. And don't forget that you can move around between games to lessen the boredom factor. I'll play a bit in Video Poker, then move to roulette, then back. And all the while, getting free drinks.
@ErikBlack999 I had a look at FoundersCard, but it appears like the automatic Diamond Status that this membership included has gone away as at the end of 2024. They no longer show this perk on their list of benefits. If it is maintained however, it does present a good way to get to Diamond.
@TheAmericanStranger1 If you spend enough on drinks and dining at Caesars properties, while showing your rewards card, you should ultimately reach diamond status. However, doing so alongside a bit of video roulette will certainly speed up reaching this status.
@rickfernandez1104 Thanks for clarifying this. I briefly remember the buyout made news in 2020. It was probably a smart move to keep the Caesars name though, as it has much more brand recognition world-wide.
Why not just skip betting on the single and double zeros. Each number should pay 36-1 so you would break even and only have a 1 in 19 chance of hitting the 0s and not getting paid. It might be cheaper doing it that way. Or just learn the jacks or better video poker strategy which is 99.5%. So house edge is ink half a percent. I’m not a fan of this method
@NickBham So your odds are right, and it makes perfect sense. Until you put it into practice, as I did 5 separate times on my most recent visit to Vegas. Removing the 0/00 reduces your odds to even money on a winning spin, however a 1 in 19 chance is still based on averaging that out over many, many spins. In each of my 5 sessions, I hit that 0 and 00 much more often than 1 in 19. My luck did not fare so well here. And that happened in EVERY session. 😂 And that's the difference between knowing for absolute certainty what this method will cost you, as opposed to getting lucky and playing the odds. These odds only work if you can play hundreds of thousands of spins, which my bankroll could not sustain. On this same trip, I also played a LOT of video poker. A 99.5% VP game, unfortunately, is pretty hard to find on the strip. And even if it was easier, I just could not play enough hands to hit those percentages. Short term, even playing perfect strategy (And I may not be perfect), I was unable to amass the same amount of tier credits given the same amount of bankroll as in my Roulette strategy (Lets say around $750 bankroll to get 1500 credits x 10x Tier Event = 15K Diamond status) But of course it's Vegas, and the whole reason for going, is playing the odds, with hopes of beating those odds. I get it. And VP is much more fun to play than hitting the roulette spin button over and over again.😀 Have fun!
TBH all land based casinos rewards are dog shit. I wagered $10,000 this week at caesers and got $3 free play. Basically a spit on the face. Online I can wager $10,000 and get $50 in free play instantly.
Thanks for commenting. It definitely all comes down to what you value. If Vegas is not your thing, then this would be a huge waste of money. But if you enjoy Vegas, finding a room on the strip for $50 might be challenging, as the resort fee alone, on average, will be higher per night.
@@woodytravelsthe linq (Caesar’s property) is only. 60$ a night resort fee included. Can get it cheaper with a rewards acc too. So I mean he’s not wrong 🤣
@tylertv7622 On the surface, you may be able to find rooms for around that price during the week, but never on the weekends, and never during New Years or any other holiday. Also, keep in mind that the Linq is probably the lowest end property in the Caesars porfolio. (Maybe tied with Flamingo). And although I've stayed there and found no fault with it, it's probably my last choice when going down the list of Caesars properties, especially when i have my choice of Paris, Planet Hollywood or Caesars Palace.
@@woodytravels damn that’s crazy. I like the linq 10x better than Hollywood. Nobody was talking about boujee places either, catch me at the Wynn if we going with no budget 🤣 and yeah best time to go to Vegas is Sunday morn to Friday night. I’d rather not spend what I spend for an entire week for ONE night ☠️
@tylertv7622 I don't mind the Linq, but find their pool a bit cramped, but it does have the best location. The thing is that having the options to stay at pretty much any of the Caesars properties, I don't have to look for deals any more, and can choose from something a bit more 'bougie', any day of the week.
I am Diamond Elite and Get absolutely Nothing ! No Free Rooms ( maybe sun - Thursday occasionally) never free show tickets . You get free Parking and even that is a pain in the Ass the gate never Goes up you have to call and you look like an ass ! This guy must work for someone Ceasars Company because let me tell you , they don't even give you Respect anymore . THATS FACTS . Oh I got the credit card as soon as I reached my highest status My interest Rate went to 31% !!!! AGAIN FACTS .
@rickcameron5506 Do you live relatively close to Vegas? I've heard that hotel room comps are not given out much to people who live close-by. I get similar comps at the closest Caesars property to me here in Ontario, Canada, in Windsor. And no, I don't work for Caesars, or any company remotely affiliated with Caesars. Thanks for commenting!
@woodytravels I live 150 miles away from Vegas but you tell me how it benefits them to fly Low Rollers out and give them free everything when there are plenty of "locals" that feed the Machine way more then outsiders and get treated like absolute Dog Shit ? How is that a good Business Model ? Please tell me I would love to know . Oh not to mention I have brought 5 Seven Star Players to Ceasars that never played before yet still NOTHING . AGAIN you tell me that's goof Business?
@rickcameron5506 I wish I could answer those questions. It doesn't make sense to me either that they don't offer the same Hotel comps to players living closer. The only thing that I can come up with is that 'you'd come to play regardless of those comps, because it's just easier for you to get there.' In my case, due to the distance, most trips to Vegas are more 'planned vacations', and because of that, they feel that they need to entice my demographic over vacationing elsewhere. But it if works, they've now been able to draw both of us to the property. A win win for them. But at the end of the day, if it means losing your play to gain my low-roller play, that's not a very smart business decision on their part. Have you tried tier matching over to MGM/Venetian/Wynn/Resorts World to see if they treat you any better?
for those that can get the Wyndham Business Card in the US it gives Wyndham Diamond which can be matched to Caesars Diamond in a few days...but love the video for those that can find 10x that's a pretty good deal!
@johnlittle8267 From what i can see, this does look like a good option for getting Caesars Diamond status. However, there are a few caveats that I can see not making it accessible to everyone. 1) it appears that getting this card requires a very high credit score. 2) Of course, you have to live in the U.S. (which you did note in your post) 3) It looks like you have to apply for the tier match every year (It does not seem to be automatic), 4) it comes with a $95/year annual fee (Actually quite reasonable for the perks it offers), and 5) There seems to be comments that the Caesars Tier match does not include the $100 celebration dinner. (Can you confirm this if you have the card?) And thanks for commenting! Very helpful.
To get the $100 there us a rule you need 100 TC which is not too bad if paired with caesars credit card.
Sadly the Wyndham card loophole is being cut off next year.
@@uttrekr is that true? wtf...
Yes. We are losing the Wyndham tier match. Very sad day for us 😢
Yes hopefully but I have to wait a few weeks I will keep you posted
How do you know if it’s the correct one? I’m close to a Harrah’s in NC.
Hey Woody, loved the video! Do you know if the casino treats this type of play as the same sort of “money-in” as slot machines? I’m thinking in terms of getting room comps for amount of play+time
@bradbrowder7 Thanks for the positive comment! Very much appreciate it. Although I'm not certain, I want to say that they would treat the 'money-in' the same as Video Poker, due to it being valued the same at $10 per tier credit. I can tell you that playing this definitely keeps the green light active for free drinks at the bar also. So if you are trying to absolutely maximize the free comps, play this method a half-dozen spins to get your drink, then move to low-value video poker, then repeat. You keep the drinks flowing, the roulette spins to expedite tier credits, and the low-value video poker to keep things engaging.
@@woodytravelsone last question, can i also just bet on the three different sets of 12’s, or on red&black, or do you think this only works if betting on numbers
@bradbrowder7 From the numbers, you should be able to bet on red/black or the 12's, however you would of course have to cover the 0/00. Also, make sure you calculate the proper wager on those spaces to minimize your loss per spin.
In some circumstances, you may not be able to play offsetting bets like the strategies you've suggested. I know from experience on these machines, you can definitely place a chip on all numbers, but I can't remember if I actually tried to place offsetting bets on red/black to see if it blocked that bet. I'll be there at the end of August to try these though.
If you're not already subscribed, do so, and I'll most likely post a follow-up video on theses methods after my visit. (End of shameless plug) 😀
Its better play like 5-6 hours at day , the roulete is the most game give you tiercredits , besides slots , so keep playing a lot of time , and u be diamond elite , free room , free diner , 4 beers or coffe , wine etc , no resort fee , and may be , airfrare 500-750 usd
@g3e118 I'm hoping to at least get to Diamond Plus, but don't think I'm willing to play enough to get to Diamond Elite. But who knows!
I just finished all 8 Caesars casinos. If you search each bartop there is atleast one of these machines at each property. Some have 50 cent denom as lowest. Most are quarter.
@@chrismattern6617 thx a bunch!
@chrismattern6617 That's awesome you did this. I was also just in Vegas and walked around to most of the casino bars, and can confirm this is mostly true. However there were a few bars with older VP games, which I did not see roulette at. Bugsy's bar at Flamingo comes to mind. Or did you find a newer VP game there? So the good news is that there are more places to play this strategy throughout the Caesars properties.
Every bar doesn't have these machines but every Caesars Casino has multiple bars. I've seen atleast one bar at each Caesars Casino have roulette. The thing is you can have 2 curved machines next to each other and one have roulette and one not. I got all 8 Las Vegas Casino badges playing roulette at a bar top.
Does nyone know if these specific machines are at outlying Ceasars properties like Harrah's Biloxi or Cherokee?
Please correct me if im wrong: You could also bet the .25 on every number except 0,00 youll make 9 back so its a wash. Of course if 0,00 come out youll loose 9 dollars but over time wouldnt that probably be less?
I actually tested a few permutations of this, betting $9 (omitting the 0/00) and I was shocked how many times i landed on 0 and 00 over the course of an hour or so. For this video, I wanted to remove the idea of chance from the equation, and give a hard, guaranteed number to getting to Diamond. If you're lucky, you could put a lot less into these video roulette machines to get the required number of tier credits, but you also could put a lot more in. 😀
it is the same expected value per spin, with 0 and 00 on the table, you will lose 1/19 times or about 52 cents per $10 spin. Woody's way guarantees you lose in a very consistent fashion (every time), you could also bet $10 on a single number, lose $10 most spins, and then spike a $360 payout once in a while. Over long enough time it's the same thing.
Hey there! Great video. Definitely deserves a follow and like🙏
Seeing this video makes me want to go at the end of this month for the 10x they are having!
How many spins so I need in order to do it in one day? (Get the 10,000 bonus) on a 10x day. How much cash do you recommend bringing to complete it? Also is there only one of those machines in each place? I want to take a friend and hopefully we can do it together! Thank you for the help!
@money_alexxx You can increase your bet to get enough tier credits for Diamond more quickly. My examples were based on a $9.50 bet (quarter on each space), but for example, betting $1 on each space will reduce your spins by a factor of 4.
If you're trying to do this as quickly as possible, this game also does not require you to wait for each outcome. You can turbo press the button to play game after game in quick succession.
As for the video terminals. All of them at the bar in Horseshoe have the game, as well as the main bar in Paris. There may be others, but those I know for sure.
And thanks so much for watching and subscribing. Very much appreciated.
Would this work on the individual electronic roulettes that generate tier credits?
I don't believe so, otherwise this method would show up more for ways to get status at all the various properties. Although I haven't confirmed this, supposedly offsetting bets are not always allowed on video roulette, or if they are, those roulette games won't give you any tier credits. That is why this set of Video Roulette games appears to be an exception to the rule.
Going to Laughlin this weekend they have the 10 x tier , can I use the video roulette there
@lafrankgable I have not been there, so don't have any personal experience if they have it or not. If you find it, I'd love to hear back from you at which bars you found the terminals. So far, I have only heard of them at bartops, and they seem to only be on the newest curved screen video terminals. If you find any, check the game list to see if Video Roulette is on there. If so, give the method a try and report back your results! Have fun!
I've heard Harrah's has these, too. Do you know if that's correct? Thanks
Every Caesars property in Las Vegas has atleast one of these roulette machines at a bartop. Gotta check each machine.
do you know how many of this games are at each locations
when are those specific days for 5x and 10x?
@dtitan1993 The yearly 10x Tier event just finished up in Las Vegas, August 26th - 30th. I think there is an upcoming 5x Tier event in Vegas October 14th to the 18th though. Cheers!
Is your calculation for the 5x multiplier correct? I believe you would only need to earn 2,500 TC to reach Diamond in a day, bringing the cost down to $1316. 2,500 TC in a single day x5 = 12,500 and then you get the 5,000 TC bonus taking you to 17,500 total.
I'm heading to Vegas over Christmas, where I'm lead to believe that there will be a 5x event and have been planning how best to reach diamond status -I'm currently sat at 2,600 TC. A single day VP grind, taking advantage of the daily TC bonus, should be (in theory at least) the cheapest method however it's also going to take HOURS and no doubt become hugely boring and tiring. As a result I had been planning to split the play over at least two, if not three or four days however I'm now wondering whether I should grind out as many points as I can in a single day VP session and then quick fire some roulette spins so I do hit my target in a day.
@ziyaa2018 Your calculation appears correct. In my video I think I only calculated the 10x multiplier with the Diamond in a day to get the lowest cost. But $1316 is what I calculated too with the 5x Multiplier plus the D.I.A.D.
I'm on my way this weekend to try for Diamond and possibly Diamond Plus, with the 10x event starting on the 26th.
You may be able to split your play over 2 days, getting 1000 tier credits the first day, and just under 1100 the second, which with what you already have, should get you to diamond also. (Based on a 5x Tier event)
Good luck, and enjoy the ride getting there!
Question how long before you see the 10x tier credits on your account ?
@jayvegas3765 Based on last year's play, I seem to recall it took several weeks to show the bonus creditsin my account. And as I have recently returned from this years 10x event, I can tell you that 1 week after my return, the bonus credits have not shown up yet. I can let you know though when I do see them appear!
@@woodytravels thanks ps I did your system total amount I spent $1300 from 500 tier credits got to platinum! Waiting on my 10x which is really 9x !
@jayvegas3765 Just to confirm...If you spent $1300 during this 10x event, you should have gotten 2600 credits before any of the bonus in a day or 10x events. So with the 10x, you should be up above diamond Plus when the bonus' get applied.
@jayvegas3765 I can give you a bit more info on the amount of time it took before the 10x tier credit bonus' were awarded. At least in my case, I was there the 26th, 27th and 28th of August, and just confirmed i was awarded all the 10x tier credit bonuses on my account Sept. 7th. So in this case, just a bit over a week. I do seem to recall last year it took longer though. But i am now at Diamond Plus and will have this until the end of 2025! Woohoo!
I know the tier reset every year does that mean that u gotta start as gold again ? In Jan 1
@AllanahFigueroa Thanks for the question. So whatever tier you happen to get by the end of the year, you will continue to have until the end of the following year. In my case, I just got Diamond Plus, and will have that for the remainder of 2024, as well as all of 2025. In 2025, if you don't build your points back up, you will drop down for 2026. Cheers!
How does a person find out when the 5 times or 10 times credits take place?
@johncheney763 If you login to your rewards account at Caesars, under the offers section, you will generally see a 3 month list of future promos, which will show you bonus tier credit events. Currently, there are 2 upcoming 5x tier credit bonus'. One October 14th to the 18th, and one November 13th to the 20th, 2024. Cheers!
Headed there in Nov and I love playing video roulette. May try this.
Have a great time and hope you get Diamond if you're not already at that level!
It works I did it at a bunch of the casinos
@anthonybeal1269 Glad you were able to take advantage. I hope you got the number of tier credits you were after!
Great info, confusing is that going in on a 10x tier multi and getting the 24 hour tier bonus, wouldn't that be only 500 tier credits needed for diamond? 500tier x 10 = 5000, plus 10k bonus = 15k?
@MrTKO I originally figured it this way, but the points last year did not get calculated in this fashion. It appears that Caesars doesn't calculate a 10x multiplier and the 24 hour tier bonus together. So for example, if you were to naturally get 1000 tier credits in a 24 hour period, and during the 10x tier event, the math would look something like this. 1000 Tier Credits (in 24 Hours) x Bonus of 1000 additional Tier Credits = 2000 Tier Credits. Then they would also calculate the 1000 tier credits x 10x Tier multiplier = 10,000 tier credits. Then they add the two together to get 12000 tier credits. Which is still short 3000 credits from Diamond.
@@woodytravels so pretty much the 24hour bonus is not going to work with the 10x event so in turn we need to get 1500 tier credit hence your calculations of $750or so to get diamond.
@MrTKO Correct. The 10x event is really the best option to supercharge your way to Diamond. I'm planning to go to this years 10x event in late August. I'll probably make a follow-up video with my findings, should they change, or if I find an even better way to get to Diamond/Diamond Plus.
This is great information. I'd just to be wary of a casino welching on their promo/rewards program because you're betting on both sides of a bet.
Do they have craps machines that this would work on?
@daaaaaaaaniel Thanks for commenting. You're right that they could change the machines, but it has been like this for at least a year, or longer.
And although I don't have a definitive answer on whether or not video craps will work, I seriously doubt it. In addition, this method only works on these select video terminals, which do not have a craps game that you can pick from.
Where do we see the 5X days
@KattSavesCT Actually, I believe there is a 10x tier multiplier event August 26th to 28th, 2024 in Vegas, and possibly in Atlantic City also. Not 100% sure about AC though, but I'm planning to work this system to get to Diamond Plus on those days. What better reason for a trip to Vegas.
I have most of these at platinum. I’m sure it’s more frequent and more value with diamonds though
Thanks for commenting. Among some others, not having to pay resort fees is a big perk, especially if you visit a few times a year. The savings add up.
Very good info
Thanks for watching.
Do hotel stays still cost 25$ fee at diamond?
@The_real_Toddington If you are referring to the resort fee, then at the diamond level and above, that fee is waived, which is a valuable perk. However the resort fee itself has not been $25 in a very long time, and depending on the hotel, sits around $50/night, if you're unlucky enough to have to pay it.
I just got the diamond status at ceasars windsor. Still trying to figure out all the perks. I usually get rooms comp and pay a fee of 25 but a resort I imagine would be different. @woodytravels
I live in colorado and I just go to the Lady Luck in Blackhawk and get my points there
@dantespears713 Thanks for watching. Is that a Caesars property? And if so, do you know if they have those specific video terminals? I'd love to find out.
Horseshoe, Lady Luck, Saratoga are Caesar’s properties out here, I don’t know the answer to the second question
Playing video poker poorly would give you much better odds than roulette. Learn to play vp well, and your odds will improve even more. Play a multi hand vp machine for diamond in a day or point multiplier events. Play the best schedule you can find at the lowest denomination. Much less risk than literally donating money to roulette.
BTW, a word to the wise about 10x multiplier events: It will be crowded and the machines you wan to play will be in high demand. Have some backups in mind!
Video poker is probably my favourite game when visiting Vegas, and I play a lot. I'm no where near a perfect player, but would say I'm maybe a touch above average. However in my time playing, I've never been able to accumulate the number of tier credits that the method in this video shows. The problem comes down to volatility. Yes, you can find a video poker machine with 98% RTP. But this number represents the percentage over a very large number of hands. In the short term, if you put $1000 into a video poker machine, you could lose it all in 20 minutes (Witnessed by @TheJackpotGents, who I would say play video poker at close to perfect.).
In the method in this video, there is zero volatility. With optimal tier multipliers, put in just around $750 and walk away with Diamond status. Whereas with video poker and the same amount of buy-in, you might come out with the required number of tier credits, but you may not. Even playing perfectly.
Now is it more fun to play video poker to get your tier credits? Absolutely. But can you put in $750 and guarantee diamond status? Absolutely not.
To your point about the 10x tier multiplier events. Although when i was in town for the last time they had this event, I was surprised that machines weren't as busy as I expected. However you make a great point that you should have backup games or play at off times to get around the influx of traffic.
Cheers!
I do play vp perfect. I am platinum at mgm with 400000 tier. Diamond elite. Penn elite status . The vol in vp is difficult to cope with. Profitable every year 2015 until now. Profit is my driver. Chasing tier can = losses. This method can improve outcome to 7 stars. Will consider. Thanks.
Have you tried this at any MGM properties? Wondering if they have anything similar. Would be fun to see
I actually have not tried this at MGM, but there may be a small number of video roulette machines there that will allow for this same betting structure. However, supposedly most will not allow for the betting of all spaces, or offsetting bets.
@@woodytravels Thanks for the info. Please let us know if you are able to try this successfully at MGM properties.
I believe if you get the Caesar's credit card you can get 5k tier credits by putting $5k on it every year to further cut down the amount you need to gamble
Very true. That does give you a rolling start to the 15K diamond status, bringing down the number of credits needed using the method in the video. Unfortunately, this card is only available for U.S. citizens, so does not work for me here in Canada. Thanks for sharing!
Also one thing to add is every time you buy something use your players card you’ll get tier credit and reward credits I’m a diamond plus member and I get even more benefits
@albertsolorio5464 Very true. I always put any Caesars property purchases on my room to maximize additional tier/reward credits. The funny thing is that I tend to get some of these removed at the end of the trip by my host, so of course don't end up getting those credits. But I guess FREE is even better, so absolutely no complaints here.
Where do put your 9.50 bet?
Thanks for reaching out. You put 25 cents on each numbered space as well as the zero and double zero. You're guaranteed a hit, winning $9.00 back. Just keep repeating the bet, and the tier credits will accumulate. Of course you can double, triple your bet to speed this up and get tier credits even faster. But you might as well take advantage of the steady supply of free drinks that you'll be offered. So I'm in no hurry when i work this system.
This doesnt work at ceasars? only at Horseshoe, Paris and Guy Fieri? Why?
@dtitan1993 The locations that I mentioned in the video were where I had specifically been to that had these
curved video terminals. Since this video, I have confirmed they are at pretty much every Caesars resort on the strip, albeit a bit sparse in Caesars Palace. I found one or two at the Galleria Bar, but the 2 that I found only had Roulette at 50cents. Most of them did not have Roulette listed.
You can also do it at Harrah’s and Caesar’s palace
Thanks for commenting. Do you know where in Harrahs and Caesars these terminals are located? Were they also the newer curved machines at bars in those properties? When I was there last, I didn't find any at Harrahs (earlier this year), but don't think i did a big search at Caesars!
@@woodytravels for Caesar’s palace there’s 2 bars in the entrance of the valet near check in. Both bars have those curve machines.
And for harrahs is the nice bar called the lounge accross the sports book
Be aware, there are 3 levels of diamond, diamond basic virtually gets you nothing but some discounted rooms and free parking, if you are not gambling after reaching diamond and think they will give you complimentary rooms for the rest of the year it probably wont happen. Free rooms for basic diamond on busy holidays may put you in the low end hotels, good luck for Caesars, planet hollywood, or Paris.
@golfgambler Thanks for commenting and the tip. I was aware of the 3 levels, and last year, had only made it to the basic Diamond level. At that time, I seemed to get a larger selection of better hotels to chose from. My guess is that when you first reach Diamond, Caesars doesn't have enough data on you, so gives you a bit more, in hopes of your gambling level will will match. However, if you don't play enough, they will dial back the perks to the lesser quality resorts, and fewer weekend/holiday times.
This year, I was able to get to Diamond Plus, and will update this channel should I see an uptick in comps. Cheers!
We have 10x coming at the end of August.
@CRSALSERO Thanks for pointing that out. And I'll be there to try and get myself to Diamond and possibly Diamond Plus for the coming year. 😀 10x Tier event is I believe from the 26th to the 30th of August.
Have a friend or spouse. Bet opposite red and black at $10 a spin, split the winnings and losses.
@nobazn Thanks for commenting! Unfortunately that would not work, as each video terminal generates its own roulette spin, so playing black on one and red on the other could result in both spins losing. I know this is something done at the roulette tables, but is frowned upon, and can get you kicked out if they catch you playing together. Also, keep in mind that you also would have to bet the 0/00 or you risk the loss of a spin even if you could cover both black and red numbers. Cheers!
Anyone know if you can do this in AC?
@chrisdurig5423 I wish i had an answer for you. I hope someone with first-hand knowledge can chime in and answer your question. If I go to AC in the near future, I'll definitely look to see if this method is available there though.
I am going August 26th as it is 10x all week. Specifically going to look for this machine. Will update.
@@jhoetjes thank you!!
@@chrisdurig5423 no luck. I've checked all properties in AC. All the machines do not have roulette. In addition all electronic roulette do not award any tier credits. I did achieve the diamond although I was halfway there at 7500 before. I acquired the additional 750 playing a couple of great low variance slots like Legend of the Phoenix. Lost like $300 total
@jhoetjes Thanks for letting us know about the lack of that game in AC. Did you see the newer curved Video Terminals there? It's been quite a while since I visited.
It works, but they might change the format now that you told everyone 😆
@JC-dt7rn There's always the chance that they will prevent this method, but I doubt it. It's been working for over a year. 😀
@@woodytravels I believe this goes away in Feb. 2025
@lucy2die How do you know that timeframe for this to go away? Based on the fact that Roulette is showing up on a good portion of the curved Video Terminals, it seems odd that they would pick a date to remove the game. If they were concerned it was being abused, they would have done this long ago I would think. And I also have seen the game in MGM properties, and at Resorts World, as well as Fountainebleau. The game seems to be showing up in more and more places.
@@woodytravels I read the Wyndham and Founders card matches are set to expire in Feb. not the machines. Sorry for the confusion
@@woodytravels
Awesome. What would you charge me to bring my status to that level ?
wunnerful
Thanks for commenting! Really appreciate you watching!
The 3 locations that I know about to play this specific video Roulette are as follows:
Paris Las Vegas, Central Bar
Horseshoe Las Vegas, Sully's Bar
Guy Fieri's Flavortown Restaurant, Bar area (Just outside of Horseshoe, walkway to Paris)
In all cases, the bar top Video Terminals are all the newer curved screen style. I have yet to find this Video roulette in any other areas, so let me know if you happen to locate any elsewhere!
How long does it take to do 3,000 (or worse yet, 5,000) video roulette spins? Sounds like a (really boring) job to me, esp. given you know the outcome of every spin is going to be a 50 cent loss. Wouldn’t it make more sense to max out the wager amount and accumulate more tier credits per spin?
@thevoiceofreason5589 Absolutely you can increase your bet amount to reduce the number of spins. Although I'm not 100% sure, casinos will use the wager and time played to affect the size of your benefits when you hit Diamond status. From what i have read, they generally like multiple hour sessions and will increase your amount of free play in your offers to match. So you may actually not get as much free play down the line if you make fewer, larger bets in smaller sessions.
And don't forget that you can move around between games to lessen the boredom factor. I'll play a bit in Video Poker, then move to roulette, then back. And all the while, getting free drinks.
Or you can skip everything and for the first year get a Founders card for $395 and get automatic diamond status and a lot of other perks
@ErikBlack999 I had a look at FoundersCard, but it appears like the automatic Diamond Status that this membership included has gone away as at the end of 2024. They no longer show this perk on their list of benefits. If it is maintained however, it does present a good way to get to Diamond.
That's really complicated. Is there a simpler way for someone who doesn't gamble but spends on drinking and dining?
@TheAmericanStranger1 If you spend enough on drinks and dining at Caesars properties, while showing your rewards card, you should ultimately reach diamond status. However, doing so alongside a bit of video roulette will certainly speed up reaching this status.
El Dorado owns & operates the chain, not Caesar's, they just kept the name for marketing purposes.
@rickfernandez1104 Thanks for clarifying this. I briefly remember the buyout made news in 2020. It was probably a smart move to keep the Caesars name though, as it has much more brand recognition world-wide.
I want to unlock 7-stars
You and me both. But I just don't want to lose that much money to get there...😀
Why not just skip betting on the single and double zeros. Each number should pay 36-1 so you would break even and only have a 1 in 19 chance of hitting the 0s and not getting paid. It might be cheaper doing it that way. Or just learn the jacks or better video poker strategy which is 99.5%. So house edge is ink half a percent. I’m not a fan of this method
@NickBham So your odds are right, and it makes perfect sense. Until you put it into practice, as I did 5 separate times on my most recent visit to Vegas. Removing the 0/00 reduces your odds to even money on a winning spin, however a 1 in 19 chance is still based on averaging that out over many, many spins. In each of my 5 sessions, I hit that 0 and 00 much more often than 1 in 19. My luck did not fare so well here. And that happened in EVERY session. 😂
And that's the difference between knowing for absolute certainty what this method will cost you, as opposed to getting lucky and playing the odds. These odds only work if you can play hundreds of thousands of spins, which my bankroll could not sustain.
On this same trip, I also played a LOT of video poker. A 99.5% VP game, unfortunately, is pretty hard to find on the strip. And even if it was easier, I just could not play enough hands to hit those percentages. Short term, even playing perfect strategy (And I may not be perfect), I was unable to amass the same amount of tier credits given the same amount of bankroll as in my Roulette strategy (Lets say around $750 bankroll to get 1500 credits x 10x Tier Event = 15K Diamond status)
But of course it's Vegas, and the whole reason for going, is playing the odds, with hopes of beating those odds. I get it. And VP is much more fun to play than hitting the roulette spin button over and over again.😀
Have fun!
great video but like you said get to the good part i almost clicked off
@clearlynewhere But you didn't click off, and I thank you for watching and commenting.
@@woodytravels it was a good video well done and you established the title and got the point across
TBH all land based casinos rewards are dog shit. I wagered $10,000 this week at caesers and got $3 free play. Basically a spit on the face. Online I can wager $10,000 and get $50 in free play instantly.
Donating hundreds if not thousands of dollars in the hopes of getting a free room worth 50 bucks is special...
Thanks for commenting. It definitely all comes down to what you value. If Vegas is not your thing, then this would be a huge waste of money. But if you enjoy Vegas, finding a room on the strip for $50 might be challenging, as the resort fee alone, on average, will be higher per night.
@@woodytravelsthe linq (Caesar’s property) is only. 60$ a night resort fee included. Can get it cheaper with a rewards acc too. So I mean he’s not wrong 🤣
@tylertv7622 On the surface, you may be able to find rooms for around that price during the week, but never on the weekends, and never during New Years or any other holiday. Also, keep in mind that the Linq is probably the lowest end property in the Caesars porfolio. (Maybe tied with Flamingo). And although I've stayed there and found no fault with it, it's probably my last choice when going down the list of Caesars properties, especially when i have my choice of Paris, Planet Hollywood or Caesars Palace.
@@woodytravels damn that’s crazy. I like the linq 10x better than Hollywood. Nobody was talking about boujee places either, catch me at the Wynn if we going with no budget 🤣 and yeah best time to go to Vegas is Sunday morn to Friday night. I’d rather not spend what I spend for an entire week for ONE night ☠️
@tylertv7622 I don't mind the Linq, but find their pool a bit cramped, but it does have the best location. The thing is that having the options to stay at pretty much any of the Caesars properties, I don't have to look for deals any more, and can choose from something a bit more 'bougie', any day of the week.
I am Diamond Elite and Get absolutely Nothing ! No Free Rooms ( maybe sun - Thursday occasionally) never free show tickets . You get free Parking and even that is a pain in the Ass the gate never Goes up you have to call and you look like an ass ! This guy must work for someone Ceasars Company because let me tell you , they don't even give you Respect anymore . THATS FACTS . Oh I got the credit card as soon as I reached my highest status My interest Rate went to 31% !!!! AGAIN FACTS .
@rickcameron5506 Do you live relatively close to Vegas? I've heard that hotel room comps are not given out much to people who live close-by. I get similar comps at the closest Caesars property to me here in Ontario, Canada, in Windsor. And no, I don't work for Caesars, or any company remotely affiliated with Caesars.
Thanks for commenting!
@woodytravels I live 150 miles away from Vegas but you tell me how it benefits them to fly Low Rollers out and give them free everything when there are plenty of "locals" that feed the Machine way more then outsiders and get treated like absolute Dog Shit ? How is that a good Business Model ? Please tell me I would love to know . Oh not to mention I have brought 5 Seven Star Players to Ceasars that never played before yet still NOTHING . AGAIN you tell me that's goof Business?
@rickcameron5506 I wish I could answer those questions. It doesn't make sense to me either that they don't offer the same Hotel comps to players living closer. The only thing that I can come up with is that 'you'd come to play regardless of those comps, because it's just easier for you to get there.' In my case, due to the distance, most trips to Vegas are more 'planned vacations', and because of that, they feel that they need to entice my demographic over vacationing elsewhere. But it if works, they've now been able to draw both of us to the property. A win win for them.
But at the end of the day, if it means losing your play to gain my low-roller play, that's not a very smart business decision on their part.
Have you tried tier matching over to MGM/Venetian/Wynn/Resorts World to see if they treat you any better?
