If you're on any casinos mailer, you probably get all kinds of incentives to go play. Just curious what others receive around the country or here in Nevada.

Here in Reno, as a local, I get a free bottle of booze from the Nugget every week, I don't have to play! It's getting a bit ridiculous, it looks like I'm opening up a bar. At least one week a month is top shelf like Johnny Walker Black or Patron. I also get one free buffet, $20 dining credit and $40 of promo chips each week ($160) a month. I've figured out the best way to turn my promo chips to actual dollars is to play bingo. I purchase the maximum amount of cards that they allow and I load them into the machines playing a session that has a very low attendance. I can usually get about 3-4 bingos a session. Promo chips can only be used out on the pits on even money bets so it's not like I can get 35:1 playing roulette. Pai Gow, If I win, they take the juice. BJ, I probably get a splitting or double down hand and then lose. UTH, I can only use them for the Ante. So I have figured out that Bingo is my best play with the chips. I also get one free slot tournament a week, that pays $1000 in free play for 1st place. I've gotten a few $50 free play but nothing to brag about.

The Western Village always gives me a two for one coupon for two of their restaurants and a $25 credit towards their steak house. A free entry into their fantasy football lineup, 1st place pays $500.

I usually get around $50 in dining credit from a few of the casinos for my B-day.

I seem to be following you around. As soon as I ask something in another thread, I find that you have already addressed it in another thread.

Have you looked at Wizard's advice on promo chips?

Is Wizard's advice on promo chips a Guide on the site? Or is it in Articles? I did a quick search for free play and promo chips and didn't turn up anything.

I'm going to the GN in three weeks. Their promo is $250 in casino chips, a room, and a free cruise on Norwegian cruise lines.

Besides that I'll get a limo to and from the airport and an upgrade to a junior suite in the Rush tower with RFB. I get two different kinds of mailers. One is the postcard type and I get them in my email account as well. There's nothing special about them. There is another kind of mailer I get that is never on line but comes up when access my 24K account with them on-line.

You are referring to the Golden Nugget in Vegas correct?

im down to $5/week at caesars. :(
with them eliminating Diamond Aspirations levels, there's no incentive to play past 25k tier points for the free diamond lounges.

oh well.. there's always next year for them to try to win me back.
till then, I'm visiting their competition.

After reading a little on the scam that WofN was playing, my eyes have opened to the world of the comp dollars, comp offers, comp cards, etc... I still dont care for any of them as I play to win and not for comps. If I get some in addition to my playing and winning... then great!

I feel like some luring is going on in this thread... setting the bait perhaps? Beware folks.

You might think Craps is beatable straight up, but you’re a smart man.

I don’t think there is luring happening, but anything is possible.

Besides, what percentage is there in discussing the specific what and where of your offers publicly?

I mean, if your offers absolutely blow, sure! Out the casino, say I played $Xk coin in and they’re giving me ten bucks a week!

But, if your offers are good, why discuss them publicly? Tell every AP where to find the good offers?

Won’t be good for long if everyone knows about them.

How many of us live in the same city? Or able to take advantage of your free offers each week or month? Not many unless you live in Nevada. Besides, many offers are the same for everyone, like the Atlantis and other local casinos here in Reno, everyone gets 5X comp dollars every Friday along with the free giveaways. Got me a free full size bottle of Jameson Whiskey last week at WV, and the same giveaway at the Nugget on Sat. without betting a single cent.

If you tell me a place with good mail (like 5x3k) I'll fly there to play it. Loose lips sink ships. Axel would be so proud.

I’m now up to $400 promotional chips a month, $100 per week and $60 in dining credits, $30 every two weeks, two free buffets and two free nights at the Nugget in Sparks. Really don’t use the free nights as I live 2 minute walk from the resort and pass on the buffet, nothing special, lower end,not missing much.

Promo chips can only be used on even money bets in the pit, but it can be used for purchasing Bingo cards where I find the best value. Can always turn at the minimum .50 on the dollar up to 4X
