Weekend laughlin Trip

#1

As mentioned a few weeks ago, I will be in Laughlin this
weekend. We have rooms at both Harrah's and the Belle.
I will be playing in a golf tournament at Harrah's and a
small slot tournament at the Belle. We should arrive at
the Belle just in time to play in the friday night session.
The entry fee is a can of food!

  I had mentioned in my previous post that my Belle/Edgewater
offers have been plentiful. Most offers are for rooms at both
casinos. In the past, all of my good offers were from the
Belle where most of my previous play occurred. Now it seems
that the two casinos are much more closely tied together.

  I still have not converted my old One Club Card. I am also
very curious as to what type of room and comp treatment
I might receive based upon being a no show for over four
months. On my last visit, before conversion, I received a
suite and a "white" meal card. I will be surprise to receive
similar treatment after being missing in action for so long.
It will be a spare room this trip so I have no anxious feelings.
Also, to my surprise, I just received a New Year's offer from
the Belle for 4 nights and a Dinner Party Celebration.

  I intend to give the Belle some play on their "100% machines.
However, being quarter plays, I know I cannot spend enough
time to reach my previous levels of play at the Belle. I think
offers will really dry up after the find out about my real
intentions for future play at these two casinos.

  Again, I would be happy to meet up with any members in
Laughlin this weekend My cell phone number is 480 280-4396
and I will Be at both Harrah's and the Belle. These types of
meetings is how I met both Terry and Drew. I very much
enjoyed their limited company. Now "limited" company
does not sound right! I just meant that because of other
obligations, we hade a limited amount of time together!

  Anyone not a diamond member is Welcome to meet us at the
Diamond Lounge. We will BUY the drinks! My wife, Marjean,
is also a Diamond Card member so we can bring in two guest.
Actually, I am a new 7* and I think that maybe I am allowed
more than one guest. Does anyone know if this as a fact?
I am new to all of the 7* benefits and have yet to received
any written material about benefits as of this date.

I too will be in Laughlin the later part of this weekend. This is a
three day weekend, so does that mean you will be heading home on
Monday? I will be arriving in town late on Sunday- 10 to 11 PM, and
leaving Laughlin on Thursday morning. I also know that Terry is
arriving Monday morning.

I wonder what type of treatment the Belle will bestow on me. I know
the white card and upgraded rooms are gone, so I have zero
expectations. One of my many offers over the last few months says
that I will receive a "Gold" card. I have no idea what this means,
but I will soon find out.

The real reason for my Laughlin trip is to collect on a baseball
future ticket I bought last November at the Belle. My 35 to 1 ticket
for the Rockies to win the National League is good. Yea...

Congratulations on the 7* status.

Wife & I will be arriving Laughlin Monday noonish and leaving
Wednesday noonish. We will be playing, periodically, the 100%
machines at both CB and ED and are distinguishable by the fact that
we play on only one machine, alternating our play. We'll also be
playing the DDJ at the GN.

It's a short weekend trip for me this time around,
and I appreciate the offer, Bob.

However, I'm also 'Car-pooling' from San Diego with a poker
buddy of mine, who is driving. I forwarded your e-mail to him,
and will let him make the arrangements.

I'm mostly a lower end player, and am entrenched at the R.Palms,
but I also play more at the Ramada....er. Tropicana Express (mainly poker).

I also play some at CBelle/Edge and GN.
However, with a mini slot tourney at RP, I may not have much time to see
you at Harrah's. I do know my friend Jon and I are supposed to meet
some of his relatives for dinner at the 'Range' Steakhouse Sunday evening...

Thanks for the congrats. I really am not too proud of that
status. Although I am up for the year, because of over
$45,000 in royals, I might have higher yearly profits if I
would have gambled less! 100,000 points at Harrah's equates
to more gambling than I need to do to eceive more offers than
I can ever use at Harrahs. Once I got close I made a conscious
effort to obtain that level, but probably only a one time effort.

  I understand the idea of not spreading your gaming around in
too many casinos. I am also saying that I think one should
probably not gamble too much in any one casino. I am guilty
of violating this second rule this year.

  My wife is a 4th grade teacher. This probably is her last
year, but because Monday is a holiday she has 3 days off. Her
job is one of the reasons for an arrival just prior to the first
session of the Belle Slot tournament.

  As of now we are planning to go to Las Vegas for Harrah's
Great Gift Wrap Up. I have a little over 51,000 points which
does not get anything we really need or want. However, whatever
we choose is free and that is something Marjean has a hard time
resisting! Last year I had a litle over 25,000 and did not make
a special trip.
