Best game countinues to be 9/6 JOB in the high limit room -- 2 IGT
machines from $5 to $25 -- a bit too rich for me.
Comps is $1 for every $500 points or 0.20%; and it appears every $1
in action is 1 point. There are 3 Reward Levels:
At Pearl, you need 30,000 points within 12 months before getting
anything in the mail
At Ruby, you need 250,000 points within 12 months and the added
benefits (worth getting IMO) are 5% discount at all restuarants and
VIP window.
At Jade, you need 700,000 points within 12 months and the added
benefits (worth getting IMO) are 10% discount on all resturants,
reserved parking, and special invites to Jade members.
Thunder Valley has a much better comp program and a food court to
boot; mailers start at 7,500 of action in a 6 month period.
Downside at TV is the tight machines.
Now about the bad experience: I was playing video poker while my
friend was playing BJ. He had the misfortune of dropping a sizeable
amount in a short time (in the four figures) and when he asked for a
comp, the host declined him a comp. Generally, the casino would
comp 10% of actual losses, but not at Cache Creek.
