In an attempt to recruit a replacment generation of VP players to
their casino, "The Suncoast" underscores their ad in todays SUN
section of the LVRJ with this Blurp.

"The Suncoast has over 6,800 Video Poker games with payouts over
99%!"

Makes me want to stand up and start cheering. How about you ?

What would make YOU happy? How would YOU like the ads to read?
Just curious.

Hmmmm.. how about,

Dear Local Player,

I am forwarding this personally inscribed letter to let you know
how much You, the Local Player, means to us at Coast Resorts. For
with out the Local Players, such as yourself, I would be changing
oil and packing bearings at Terribles. As well as picking up cans on
the roadside, rather than enjoying the fantastically lavish
lifestlye I, my extended family and friends have come to take for
granted.

In this Light and due to the overwelming unpopularity of recent
changes in our VP mix all Coast Resorts Casinos are now offering
100+% video poker exclusivly in all denominations up to $25.00
including multi line games. Likewise, and in an apologetic manner,
we are offering triple cash back untill new years day 2004.

Just to let you know how sorry we are for pulling the aforto
mentioned maneuver. We are now offering unlimited $25.00 matchplay
coupons for our new singledeck Blackjack games. These games will
offer 2:1 blackjack untill new years day 2004 and 3:2 thereafter. As
well as resplit doubles on any two cards including Ace's. (One per
day for any one named Jean, Anthony, or Scott, please;)

Any Persons receiving this mailer, or a reasonable facsimile
thereof, will also recieve, as my welcome guest and revered
customer, a fully comped dinner for two at any dining establishment
at the Coast Resort of your choice.

Oh yeah, kids eat free.

Apologetically

Mike Gauhan

Of course every word would be spelled in and arranged in a
grammarically appropriate manner.

I can't speak for timmer, but I'd get a bit of a kick if the ad read:

"The Suncoast has over 6,800 Video Poker games with payouts over 99%!
(SUCKERS!)"

Only one minor change to the ad would make me VERY happy...."The
Suncoast has over 6,800 Video Poke games with payouts over 100%".
