It was a silver card. It specifically listed these sites
on the back for cmmplimentary food and beverage "Orleans Room,
Mississippi Lounge, Boiler room, Mark Twain's, Paddlewheel,
Captain's Buffet, Portside Snacks, Snack Shack, and Casino
Bars". It was funny, but I first thought they would take the
cards after eating the first night in Mark Twain's! We did
not abuse the priviledge, but it was sure a nice comp to have.
I never had full RFB anywhere and did not know what they
were doing as I watch them laminate the cards. They asked
me if I wanted "one or two" before I even knew what the were.
I innocently thought two must be better than one - so I said
"two". Thus they gave me 2 cards with "one" written on the
front of each card. This allowed my wife to use one alone.
They never looked at her card the times we were together.
However, the next time I might say one. This would give
someone the option of taking someone different with you if
you know someone else in the casino on that trip.
My slot invitation did not even mention rooms and I was sure
all participants did not have such cards since 4 meals were
included in the tournament offer and there were too many
participants.
In spite of playing $1 video poker, I do not consider myself
a big player. That is the reason I thought it might be a
mistake. For whatever it is worth, I will mention the only
thing that has changed recently in my play at the Belle. I
received their "Super Bowl Party" invitation for 3 nights.
I stayed all 3 nights, but concentrated all trip play in only
a 24 hour period "slot day". I play nothing at the Belle the
other two days. That is it. I do not think that I gamble
more, just did it in a single day.

Bob, your good fortune of getting comped food and beverage on your
last visit had nothing to do with the slot tournament. It was based
on your previous play at the Belle. I get the same offers as you,
and
the last 4 trips, I received food and beverage privledges. None of
this is mentioned in my offers, but they give it to you at check in
at the hotel. Did you get the gold or silver card? The gold card
will get you free food for 2 at the buffet, coffee shop, the little
snack shop near the sportsbook, and beverages at all bars. Once I
received the silver card, and that gave me all the eating places
except the Orleans room. I am sure some get that one also, but I
have
