Went to the Sun for an hour yesterday - had a total of $75 free play, $25
for the over 60 Monday thing, and $50 for a bonus thing that you had to play
$100 through to get. Chose to play the 9/6 DDB that no longer earns
points, downloaded the first $25 then the machine froze up and wouldn't let me
hit draw - slot attendant behind me and she said it needed to be re
calibrated - spent about 5 minutes doing that while we had a conversation about how
sad things were there now. I told her I missed the set up in the old
poker room and she said I wasn't the only one - she said in addition to the
cuts they've made to points, etc. they've also done the same to employees -
she's been there 15 years and is not too happy, but she said there's not much
else to do in the area. Lost the $25, put $100 in and after 20 hands
pulled my card and downloaded the bonus $50 - played 10 hands and cashed out
with $180 - a grand $5 profit<g>. The biggest reason I was there was that
Coach was having a 25% off sale with a special invitation and I still had
lots of points in my account, so I bought some wallets for gifts at a nice
savings.
It was actually pretty busy there, but it looked like most action was on
the various slots and tables. My nieces and I stopped at the Player's
Lounge in the Sky Casino for lunch - that was pretty pathetic, too. A line of
people waiting for hot food, complaints about no cold cuts, shrimp running
out...almost glad that I won't be Sagamore after March! Not sorry that I
made the promise to myself not to play there anymore. I have a trip
scheduled at the end of February for Harrah's NOLA - free rooms and free airport
limo transfers, plus a $100 credit for Besh Steakhouse, plus decent dollar
VP. No, I don't miss the Sun at all!
