Once in awhile a casino will offer a decent play on the table games.
This Treasure Chest promo is fine for VP players too.
A VP player earns a pull from the chest for 50 points/$500 coin-in.
A BJ player has to get five tickets for $5 min BJs to earn a pull
from the drum.
If you get bored playing VP and want to try some BJ here is the EW
set-up. The joint is now full of single deck 6/5 tables. 6/5 costs
you 1.4% all by itself, so thank all those fools playing the game
since it pays the bills.
The actual best BJ is the "Lucky Wheel" six deck game at .8% vig. It
is a $2 table, but you need to bet $5. What is fun is you can play
multiple hands at $5!
Here is the cost of a ticket:
BJ every 21 hands X 5 X $5 X .8%= $4.20/ticket
Payoff is usually a shirt plus $5. Though 1/10 seems to pay $25 and
there are $1k top prizes. I got some polo type shirts for fat guys,
100% cotton with a 2003 promo logo. A better deal than the hat or T-
shirt for small people. So I valued the average prize at $10+.
A weird thing they do is you self track table games play. You
actually fill out the rating card yourself, and can take it with you
to the next table. I do not know the value of say 2 handed $5 BJ,
but others have received mailings for less.
It is a fun diversion that could lead to future offers.
