Digest Number 30

Unbelieveable! I've been to a couple of Bob Dancer's classes in Vegas, and they
are good and informative. But, leave it to Harrahs to CHARGE PEOPLE for it!!
Those tight bastards!

I've also heard that as soon as Harrahs took over the Tunica Horseshoe, they
quit giving out buffets unless you gamble A LOT! With Jack B. at the helm, any
action at all would get you 2 buffets anytime.

On Saturday May 1 (11:00 a.m. Beginners and 4:00 p.m. Intermediate) and
Sunday May 2 (1:00 p.m. Beginners and 4:00 p.m. Intermediate) I'll be
teaching 9/6 Jacks or Better at Harrah's Tunica. The classes are free
and everyone is welcome. Anyone desiring more information should
contact Jonathan Schmitt, (662) 357-2438 or jschmitt@tunica.harrahs.com

My Jacks or Better classes on May 1 and 2 at Harrah's Tunica
will be free only to Total Reward's Diamond and Platinum members. Others
wishing to attend are welcome, but the charge is either $10 or 1,000
Reward Credits.

At the end of each class I'll be spending about 5-10 minutes on the
subject of "how to play video poker tournaments" because Harrah's will
be having multi-round multi-property million dollar tournament starting
later in May. Although the tournament information will be specific to
the Harrah's tournament, much of it will be applicable for video poker
tournaments anywhere.

Anyone wanting to post this information on any other relevant site has
permission to do so.

I am holding my own FREE classes in the parking lot of the Tunica
Visitor's Center, just off of the main road (don't remenber the route
number) between Memphis and the casinos. We'll have a tailgate party. :wink:

Seriously, Bob, I'd love to meet you but am unsure of the dates. Maybe
I can work it out. But I don't know if that's such a good idea because
the critical mass that we would create might wipe out Hollywood right
next door (my hang out). :wink:

Cheers.

Actually, on my most recent trips, it looks like it is still fairly easy to get comped a buffet at the Tunica HORSESHOE; however, it has always been much more difficult to get a comped meal at HARRAH'S in Tunica, so perhaps that will eventually change. What _HAS_ changed at the Horseshoe, however, is the Jacks or Better paytables; the only JoB has been at the bars, and was 8/5 IIRC until they were all replaced several months ago with 6/5 -- even the dollar machines. That's just ridiculous.
