This offer is a specific marketing deal and may not come around again!! The tentative dates are April 28-May 2. Email me if you are interested!!

1) I'd be more concerned he knows you're a member of this board and you're rounding up a bunch of AP's to which he'll have all the personal information on them =P.
2) How do we know if we have an ADT of at least $1,000? I assume that's an expected loss of $1k per day basically, which would require some pretty big action if I'm not mistaken?
Playing it correctly means you've already won.

If you are a Seven Star or at least a Diamond II, I'd say its highly possible that your level of play would warrant consideration. And to your first point; Casino's always want new business ad its a good opportunity for Caesars players to find an alternate venue that will give good offers!!

Hmmm.... This is above my pay grade, but I will track follow-up posts.
<edit> I think I remember, my thinking is ALWAYS questionable, Diamond level II comes with a $750 airfare reimbursement once, each year. So if a player had 'already' used that, and then wanted to take advantage of this, might work out good, might not. Seven Stars? Got no clue. When they gave me a single star I just assumed they were trying to trick me, again..;-)

You won't find many squares on this board; mostly hustlers.

I am a Seven Stars (soon to be downgraded), but my ADT is nowhere close to $1,000. It's probably negative. Then there are people who are better at massaging the system than I am and can show a positive ADT while still being up on the casino.

Believe it or not, I will be in New Orleans shortly courtesy of Caesars, but not during Jazz Fest. I'm a little upset I couldn't get down there during that time. My brother's band is playing the second weekend (not at-Fest, but at fringe gigs).

The players you round up on here are probably *not* the players your casino wants to get!

Thanks for the feedback! I'm really just trying to help my fellow Caesars folks out. Pinnacle is notorious for being ultra tight with comping and for them to comp air is a big deal lol. It's going to be a fun trip, hope you can make it down!

Most seven stars probably don't have close to 1k daily theo- Not to shoot down your offer but offering airfare reimbursement which you say may vary is not a straight deal, if someone really has a 1k daily this offer is actually below what they would most likely be offered at other places not to mention the person setting it up is going to want personal information and going to call to verify play/
Not trying to be mean but if I was giving advice to the board I would tread cautiously on this offer

My question is how are they going to know the players ADT? Plenty of Diamonds out here that are almost worthless to the casino, especially in AC. That is why they closed the Diamond Lounge to those without 25K in Tier Score, or they charge them $10 in comps (No Cash). Too many people getting Diamond playing $50 a day and then eating at the casino 250+ days a year.

I agree that they would not be happy with anyone who brought a bunch of the members here to their casino with guaranteed comps.

But the thought is nice.

Hey guys I'm simply going on this offer and I was encouraged to bring others who are players as well. I don't work for Pinnacle; I am simply a gamer like the rest of you! If you don't qualify or don't want to participate it's all good!

That damn sparkles really puts the screws to you. You musta found a good one.

We did a cruise last year April 12th out of NOLA. It was the same weekend as the jazz fest. Amazing how many people there were. Nola is like nashville, you can hear some really good bands that you never heard of and never will.

I think the 1k ADT is to get the max airfare reimbursement, but they can probably adjust the amount based on where you are at.

But again, how do they know? Or is this based on play during this period at Pinnacle?

Independent Reps are authorized to look at your play in the Carsars System to qualify you for a Pinnacle offer. I titled this as a 7star upper Diamond promo because they are looking to entice Caesars players with similar level comps including airfare.

The independent reps that take care of me service many casino companies. 2 particular reps that help me can look at Caesars play with a TR# and use those stats to back up qualified play for another company offer. Wiz; this isn't a pissing contest, I don't claim to know more than anyone else here on the forum. I simply speak from experience, including this promotion. If your experiences are different that's awesome. But it's frustrating to have someone tell me what I'm saying isn't true when I am experiencing what I claim. That is all.

mikes... Appreciate the info about the "offer," but to be honest my 6th sense of scams is going off in my head for some reason. I'm not saying it is, or isn't, etc, etc, just that I don't like the information I've heard and don't believe a few things about it. As a lot of people on here my identity is very important to me and not something I'd be willing to just hand over for a free weekend trip.

Have fun on your promotion, but I wouldn't encourage anyone who's an AP to attempt this. Perhaps some non-AP players count look in to it more and find use for the promotion (giving up NOTHING more than their players card number).
Playing it correctly means you've already won.

I respect everyone's perspective here, differences and all. But in the future please ask for clarification before shooting things down. Before things became a debate I had pure intentions of trying to hook my fellow players up with a new (possibly limited) promotion and a way to use your status at Caesars to get comp somewhere else.

Mike- you kind of implied it was a pinnacle thing- then it turns into an outside rep thing .... Those are wayyy different independent rep offers are a dime a dozen. My girlfriend who never did anything more then sign up for a card and use an a gets free airfare offers and 150 in Freeplay for places and she has never done a single coin in there. Maybe you do not realize the value of offers or what it normally get but if you are a 1k adt you should seek much more and are probably undervalued by your rep... Do be honest and not making any accusations but normally when this sort of thing is offered the rep says he will throw you something if you can bring your friends or other 1k players

It "IS" a Pinnacle offer that is being fulfilled by an Independent Rep. Value? I have no player history with Pinnacle and I am getting airfare, room, VIP lounge passes and tickets to jazz fest with transportation up front. I'm satisfied with what I'm getting.

I've brought players into the fold so to say before and it does help my cause because some host's will go the extra mile for me when my action doesn't warranted an offer down the road.

Based on their score no different that offering a credit card for free with 35k free miles and no cost to them strictly based on their credit worthiness

But you get an override in the amount f customers your bring in for the card- same exact difference

I appreciate you posting this and would like to hear about every offer reps can get us.

For those of you that are not familiar this is exactly what independent hosts do. They try to steer the best players to the properties that reward the hosts good deals by offering the players the best deal the casino will allow. Read "Whale Hunt in the Desert" by Steve Cyr. I will probably be at Westgate tonight and wouldn't be surprised to run into him there.

Who is advocating going and not playing?

Why not take advantage of what sounds like a pretty good offer and give them some play on the $1 NSUD? Obviously this isn't for everybody, sadly I think my play at Pinnacle would disqualify me from this.

Years ago there was a back way you could see your CZR Adt online but that was closed, as far as I know.

And I agree, my wife gets crazy offers from places we had never visited and have used and abiused a few. Yet they still keep coming so the communication between casinos isn't there. That said it usually isn't anything more than running the play through and leaving. I always thought a host left and took lists with them.

I think most reps that book Caesars trips/junkets can get easy access to TR data, as to whether Caesars likes the idea of them using their criteria for other companies I don't know. I try not to ask too many questions lol. My rep booking this particular trip said Pinnacle was trying to implement an air program in the likeness of TR but who knows if it will last or how long!

I would love to go, actually. I'm afraid their jaw will drop when they look at my ADT, though. (LOW, not high). I could throw down some decent play, probably on that $1 NSUD that DRich mentioned.

I hope you bought your tickets already. Chepeast airfare from BNA-MSY is $942 r/t for a flight leaving at 5:30 AM. Most flights are in the $1,000-$1,600 range.

$100k a day in handle would give you about $1000 ADT on that NSUD machine.

In other words you would have to play fast for 20 hours per day to achieve it.

Ok well if it's a three day trip then 1k adt would be 3k

Maybe people think this is a good offer , I do not, especially with having to give up your info- I could be wrong and I hope people enjoy it - I have a feeling not many will end up going though, and I still do stick to my original statement that there is some Beenifit to the poster and not much to the player if they are already a 1k average daily theo player,
Just be aware that's not 1k per trip

Did anyone actually go on this offer that could provide follow-up info? Looks like Mikes0805 last logged in the day before the scheduled trip, so maybe I assume he went?
Did he fall (get thrown) into the the big Muddy?

Hahaha no I made it out of the mud! The trip went great, I brought 8 guests and they took great care of us. There was a VIP reception where they had a Jazz band, drinks and free play for all. The Jazz Fest was amazing, limo to and from and Star lounge passes throughout. I don't know if you've ever been to a Star lounge but Diamond Lounges pale in comparison. Great drink selection along with good food options; entree for lunch and dinner, sandwich station and salad/dessert bar.

I know there were skeptics here but damn it was a great experience. If you ever want to come along on an excursion let me know Two Feathers ;)

There are a lot of smart people here.
There are a lot of knowledgeable people here.
Some are both. Some turned out to be neither and aren't here anymore, so I can talk about them ;-)
Asking from that group of neithers;

Anyone want to offer advice as to whether I should send Mikes my TR #, so he can have his 'rep' run my data and advise if anyone on the planet would ever spend some $$ trying to lure me into their den? Except CET of course ;-)

Actually, I'd be interested in knowing what some 'Rep' could find out about me thru access to my TR number but I suspect there may be other better ways to find out. But I remain mostly clueless. Which someone reminded me of earlier today, via telegraph ;-)
