Preston,
Greektown actually makes it pretty easy to track coin in.
When you put your card in, you will see several numbers scroll across the screen. The first one is your point balance. On VP, it takes $20 coin in to earn one point. The next number is your ticket balance. Generally it takes 3 points to earn one 1 ticket on vp. So you need to run $60 through to get 1 ticket. For the current promo, 500 tickets gets you one entry into the slot tourney.
Next you will see your Bonus Play. That is your freeplay amount. ( Items 2 and 3 might be in reversed order). Finally you will see your cashback balance in dollars and cents ( with no dollar sign).
Let's say you start off with a brand new card and play $14000 through the 5 play jacks or better.
You will earn 700 points, 233 drawing tickets and your cashback balance willl be $23.33.
150 points = $5 cash back so 30 points earns you 1 dollar in cash back. That is, $600 coin in gets you $1 in cash back, for a cashback rate of 0.167%.
For a short cut ( at least for this promotion) , cash back times 10 is your drawing ticket amount. It takes $30,000 coin in for one entry into the slot tourney. 500 tickets x $60/ticket = $30,000 coin in.
As for Pantheon, the number I heard was $150,000 coin in during the 6 month qualifying period. I believe the current qualifying period ends on May 31. Peggy ( my wife) is supposed to get some more info today.
