I got my first mailer from CC: two free nights from Mon to Thur, one
night for the first half of the month and the other night for the
second half of the month -- the rack rate is $120 a night. I also
got
some match plays. For slot players, CC gave me $15 in free play
from
11 am on Mon until midnight Thur and $10 from 5 pm Fri until
midnight
Sunday. It was use or lose it and you can't combine multiple
offers. To make it interesting, CC offers
double points from 10 am Tue. to midnight Wed. on top off the free
play. (TV can't compete because they ain't got a hotel and their
bonus play was typically $5 a week and you couldn't have bonus play
and double points in the same week).
While I was on the line, I asked the people in the slot club about
the
program -- it started on April and the highest free play she saw was
$100 for Mon to Thur. i was told the rewards was different for
everyone. I saw some people get sometime like 2,000 free point -
note
CC gives $1 in comps for every $500 of slot or video poker action
(each dollar of action is one point) or 0.20% so 2,000 free points
was
worth $4 in comps. In contrast, TV comp is $1 for every 750 pts
(0.13%) for Thunder cafe or $1 for every 1,000 pts (0.10%) at the
food
court.
[For really cheap or tired people; I've seen these people sleep in
their cars at CC's garage. TV doesn't have a garage since it only
has
oudoor parking and the temp easily reaches over 105% in that part of
town].
The double points at CC is really tempting meaning comp is 0.40% --
I
would be curious to see what playing on double points day does to my
mailers.
