Laughlin Trip/Turkey Shoot Promo

Well this one isn't that easy to figure out. Just the facts ma'am...

Both CB and EW were doing it daily through end of November. Drawings at EW
at 1 and 6pm and CB 2 and 7pm. Just one winner at a drawing. Tickets earned
seperately in both joints.

Tickets earned for:

1 for Breathing
1 for 500 Points earned
1 for a $5 BJ
2 for a suited $5 BJ

You could save up tickets but had to use where earned because of color.
Hand-filled.

Once drawn to play the game went like this:

Fifteen panels on a game board. Ten had $100 behind them, one $200, one $300
and three had "bangs". Game over if you picked a bang with max prize $1500.
They gave you $100 if you shot the turkey on first pick. Picked panels until
you shot the bird.

So this was a tad harder to figure EV. One guy made it to $900 and another
banged on first try.

So $334 coin-in got you a ticket on bartops, after collecting the one for
smiling. Best guess 300 tickets at the first drawing and 800 for the last
drawing in each house. It took six names out of the four drawings attended to get a
winner...so there were no-shows.

Ballpark it at 1+%? Well run and on-time. Called names three times, about
30 seconds to respond. None of this five minutes to show nonsense. PA ststem
could be heard standing in the back.

So if you got the time and inclination the promos add good value for low
rollers at CB and EW.
