River Palms

I got to stay there this month thanks to hamstockman. The rooms look the
same from my last sleep in April 2005. This is fine with me...same room.

My last mail was June 2005 to my dismay. For some reason it just faded away.
Maybe too many short play days while staying at other joints? Whatever, I
got my first mail in a long time for February/2007. I got the new flyer, which
some of you have received the last couple of months.

I got 4 x $5 for the 4 weeks in February. No room or food. At least you can
double dip, if inclined at midnight.

Observations-

Keno Lounge died on Jan 1st...WTF? They can't pay two people and make money
16 hours a day?

The Winner's Wharf promo died too. A version has been around for years. The
daily drawing/monthly drawing combo were the last incarations, but the COD
that you pulled from the kiosk was innovative on the river. I think it was the
first use of a kiosk in Laughlin. I think this promo preceeded the
Columbia-Sussex takeover.

What happened to the computer/kiosk driven big-bang promos? Did the Gaming
Commision get wiff of the complete meltdowns over the last couple of years, or
maybe RP decieded they should abandon that venue for promotions? I hope
someone got canned for the total SNAFUs for the past major drawings/promos.

The games have vanished. But, I overall since the Gold River days have liked
playing and staying here.
