Laughlin 5 cent 50 play JoB machines over the past year. I used this
information to make Diamond in Day this past weekend. Something very
strange happened though, and I'd like any guesses as to why:
I played 50 hands at .05 for $12.50 per deal. This means 1,440 deals
to hit the 1,800 points. I played for about 2 hours and had
accumulated 902 base points. Being 1/2 way there, I decided to take a
break. I grabbed some Starbucks and played a couple shoes of blackjack.
I returned to the machine and put my card in, ready to earn the second
900 points. The display said I had accumulated 1,805 base points and
1,093 bonus reward points that day. Huh? How could this be? I
walked to the Total Rewards Center and asked if I had enough points
for Diamond in a Day. The boothling said "Yep, just enough! You must
have been working hard all morning to get this!"
I took my pretty white card, cashed in my TITO ticket, and left the
casino with a big smile on my face. My question is ... how did my
points double?
- I am absolutely certain I was playing 50 hands at the .05 level.
- I am absolutely certain I had only played for 2 hours.
- I am absolutely certain that when I left the machine, I had base 902
points.
- I wasn't using any type of promotion or point multiplier. I've
never gotten a point multiplier from Harrah's before.
I'm really curious about this.
For the record, I did this up $60. I had put in $500 within the first
hour and only accumulated 500 points. I was lucky enough to have a
good streak after that and hit two royals.
Another aside ... I used the 2,800 points for the new buffet at
Harrah's Las Vegas ... "flavors". It was ok, very fresh but very
average tasting. Nothing unusual or especially memorable.
