As it turned out they gave me my money back plus $100. The hotel is way below average (Especially compared to Resorts!) and my mom fell when the shuttle bus driver let her off on an island instead of next to the hotel entrance and I turned to tip the bus driver. Luckily she wasn't seriously hurt (She is almost 83 so I worry alot about this.). The driver took off but a very nice black lady attending a wedding saw this and helped alot. We did file a report at the hotel and with security on the boat. I am now attempting to maintain the Majestic I and II data for vpFree and will post an update within 48 hours so everybody please let me know about errors or omissions as I could not check every machine on both boats. I lost about $70 in play and my mom lost $10 so the $100 + $35 bouncebacks covered it.

Interesting. I didn't put any value on the room or lounge pass. I'll get
my sharpened #2 out and play with the numbers if I get a look at the
structure.

Almost certainly an overlay on the BJ tourney. Even if completely filled not
counting freebies would have been about a 60% overlay.
I will be there anyway tomorrow and find out but since the $100 tourneys
would fill up almost immediately it seems strange that this would have
trouble selling out.
I want to know when they reschedule. I hope it is not Rosh Hashanah weekend
9/23 and 9/24.

Did they give a reason? I considered investigating whether there would be
some sort of overlay, but entered a couple of the $100K holdem tournaments
instead. Certainly no overlay there, but the house juice is only about 10%
and the competition is not super strong.

Just got a call this morning. The tournament has been postponed. The
are honoring hotel reservations and giving the players $100 in "lucky
money" whatever that is. Since a post on VPfree indicates that
Fitsgerald's LV video poker has been trashed, I wonder how long before
the Star does likewise?
