Nice rundown on the Deuces. I jumped on the wild card train a bit late.

But there was an interesting comment in the article about comps. I quote:

"One of my least favorite stories is being refused coffee at Java Joe’s in

Being a semi-regular at the River Palms I thought I had a handle on the slot
club. For VP it was $5/point across the denomination board that generated .2%
in cashback and .1% in banked comps.

You could check your account at the kiosks...points and also your comp
balance in whole dollars. Has something changed in the mix? I have not paid much
attention since my mailers dried-up in June 2005, unexpectantly. Just as
unexpectantly I got a low level bounceback mailer for January and Febraury, so it
is time to pay attention again.

But Linda found a little gem in Java Joe's. It is an in-house coffee bar
that lets you swipe and go. But how many Starbucks outfits also serve up chili
dogs? This is my quick/cheap food play when going solo in the River Palms.

The chili is just #10 can runny style, but the value comes in the condiments.
They offer you the fresh indregients self service style...diced yellow
onion, grated cheddar cheese and sliced jalapenos. The parlay play is to bring
your own fresh cold beer. For your convenience there is a VP bar twenty feet
away to snag one. Enjoy!
