Just under the gun:

Now, not to gamble at all at Caesars in 2014!

You can buy an Apple Ipad, I looked it up in
the catalog.

My question is, how much real money did it cost
to get 150K points.

What's sick is I will end the year with a tier score of 530 and I will have about 5k more RC than you do...lol I will spend the difference between us in less than a week though (rooms in tunica).

Obviously play at least 1 point in the next 6 months!

Are the 9/6 JoB progressives gone in Cleveland now too? CET generally blows with these "new" machines.

Expected loss is ~$50,000k on penny slots. I lost significantly less than that. Actually, I was a winner until my downswing at Rincon. Either way, I'm stuck far, far less than they are giving me back in comps.

Same here, they still want me to come stay there and eat even though I have never gambled so much as $0.01 there that has actually come from my wallet!

I ended up with about a 530 Tier Score in 2012 as well, which bumped me to the Platinum level, which as far as I can tell is worth bragging rights with Mrs. Q and a shorter buffet line in Vegas. Since Mrs Q has started to play more slots and less VP, I don't wan't her to rack up a ton of Tier Credits. I want her to play enough to keep getting good free night offers.

I think Horseshoe Cleveland still has the 9/6 JoB Progressives at the Dollar Level. At the quarter level they have 9/5 or 8/6, I forget which.

I thought about taking that, just for the record.

I've never gotten any players cards, but thinking about doing so. Seems like it would take forever to get into the high tiers and make it worth it. However, in December I met my bro in Vegas. Ceaser's gave him a room for the weekend and he had to go on a specific weekend to claim a Norwegian Cruise. Apparently through his Total Rewards he gets to go on any cruise with them at any point in 2014. I didn't ask what level of play earns such a reward, but I'd assume it's too much.
