150 debit card for Mar 18-20th

#1

My wife received the $150 gift card. She is neither Sachem or Sagamore and has used her card only 3X or so. I'm Sachem and didn't receive the gift card but had received the 70K slot and Bose offer.

--- it sounds like they are target marketing. I wonder where the
people who got the debit card live. We are from Mass neither one of
use got it.

I am Sagamore and received a $100 gift card for the 18th - 20th. I'm
not sure what my theo is but have estimated it to be between 800 and
900 (I could be wrong). Is that something I can ask my host or is it
a taboo subject?

I get some of the shows I want but not all of them. My host always
says she'll put me on the waiting list. I was invited to the 25k slot
tournament a couple weekends ago. I usually get my mail too late for
some of these offers but was lucky enough to be talking to my host
the day the invitations were mailed out so she mentioned it and
signed me up. I finished 74th for 100 points. I hit 4oak in PickEm
between the rounds so it was a good day. :wink:

I'm pretty sure I'm going to be renewed since my host confirmed some
concerts in April. That's probably a good sign.

Best of luck to everyone. Royals to all!

No, it is not a taboo subject -- the reason probably being that they
often have to raise the subject up when someone gambles frequently
but gets denied something because their daily average is low. I've
always liked the fact that the hosts at MS have always been very
frank and straightforward. I ask directly. I would not sugarcoat
the question, otherwise then they might sugarcoat the answer.

When asking for shows, I go through the toll-free VIP services number
first. They are just anonymous clerks who use the computer to
determine yes or no. When they say "Can you hold on a minute?", that
means your close or borderline, and they are asking a real host
standing nearby whether they can okay it. If you get denied, you can
then go to your host and ask, while knowing approximately where you
stand -- just like when your a kid and mommy says no, so you run to
daddy. Also, in this way, you don't end up worrying about annoying
your own host with 100 favors.

====================
Thanks Mel and Stevie for your input. I will be sure to ask the host
at the desk the next time I go into the lounge about my theo. I also
like the idea of going through VIP services for events rather than
bothering my host all the time.

Thanks again!

Jack,
I'm pretty sure our host asked us to call her about some requests. I
may be confusing MS host with Las Vegas Hilton. Something about they
got credit for making room reservations.
We pretty much call VIP services and contact our host only for
special requests. Example, on birthday months, host may be able to
provide comped meal (Sachem wife got $200 to the Summer Shack).

We do this more because of the excellent VIP services relative to
contacting (now VP) Host (or her assistant). Sachem wife has been
with this host for many many moons. Maybe it was while we were being
rated and we became $25/day gambelers (one card only/trip).

Low rating by MS of Sachem Wife's spouse (not rating by Wife), got me
assigned to a "telephone" host. She is low on the totem pole (but
working her way up). Very nice person and computer literate.
Most hosts are people persons. The stories they could tell :slight_smile:

The bottomline is "telephone" hosts may want you to call them so you
should ask your "telephone" host. I know mine did. I play almost
excusiely on Sachem wife card. Put $10K action on my card one
day/month. Sachem wife VP host definetly only want "special" calls
from us. I think she has several high rollers and maybe a Whale.
