Any ideas for tier score/points for Mohegan Sun V...

#1

Here is a cute true story that many of you will be happy to hear. There is a lady from central Ct. that was going to the Sun 'every day'. She had won the lottery and took a lump sum of 10 million, she bought some houses for some of her children, and when she is gambling, has someone take care of a couple she has that are retarded. She was spending a thousand + every day, and seldom winning. She even paid a friend $100 to drive her to the Sun in her own car, then when the friend ran out of money, she would give her more. She is of limited intelligence (not an opinion, just a fact) so as to be expected, she played Slots, never VP. It took her about 10 years, but she now is at the point where her accountant only allows her so much money a week, (about a grand I have been told) as she blew through most of the 10 million at the Sun. I have heard she seldom goes to the Sun anymore. Think of the income the Sun has lost from her daily visits. I think that hurt the bottom line also.

That is a sad story. I doubt any on this board are happy about it.
Doesn't have anything to do with why board members are pissed-off.

Her accountant should have cut her back to $1K/week years ago. But you raise an interesting question as to whether or not someone with "limited intelligence" could learn pick-em. With a 2% error rate she would have been o.k. at $1 VP @ 400 hands/hour
$2K/hour x .02 = $40/hour loss x 25 hours/week = $1K/week loss.

The story would have been much better if she had stopped going because she was not getting any comps as of August even when losing $40/hour.....

I would have used that in my testimony to the Mass. gaming commission has public hearing for MS to pitch Palmer proposal in about a year.
