Peppermill free play?

#1

Just got back from a trip through Yosemite, Lake Tahoe and Reno.
Have seen better games at river boat casinos than in Reno. Saw casinos with leaking roofs, No Buffets as they were closed, and worst room service I ever saw. Could not even get egg omlet order right. No wonder the place is like a ghost town with boarded up casinos.
Machines were really. really bad in pay scheds.
Yuck!
Dump!
Laughlin is way better than that even with machines drying up.
First and last trip to Reno. Thats for Sure!
Yosemite and Tahoe was beautiful. Gods place for sure.

I went from $30 FP and $25 food to SQUAT with a free room. This after
doing the free play and playing appx 10K in action. Guess who won't be
returning there...

Sorry to hear your trip was not good other than Yosemite and Lake Tahoe part. I am curious on where in Reno you played and found the bad pay schedules. Did you check the Reno database for the better plays in town? I am going to guess you came in on one of the Harrah's flight deals and played mostly at Harrah's properties. Yes, Reno has been hit hard with the economy and California Indian casino competition, but still has some very nice places that seem to doing just fine.

Well, Reno is not for everyone.

Sorry the be the person of bad news. But have played 35 years from Vegas, State Line Vegas, Laughlin, and from coast to coast Indian casinos, Yours is the worst. That is just the way it is. Go play elsewhere and compare. Not even close guys. Sorry!
Before you say anything, travel and see.
Have a great day!

Now that is an interesting response. You never answered my question on where you played and based this bad news conclusion, but I think the discussion is over. The expert has spoken and how can you argue with the 35 years and coast to coast Indian casinos?

Did not say the only play has been Indian Casinos. Have been making a living at this since 2002. Can you say that! Just giving my view of things. If you like it in Reno, good for you. Just not for me. Better elsewhere, is all I am saying. Have a good day. Give them hell out there!
Later.
