Hi, I have a question. I plan on going to Atlantic city and I'm wondering if anyone knows if a gaming day would start if I paid for a meal at a CET casino with TR points. I'd like to avoid starting a gaming day if possible.

Hi dory, and welcome to the forums.

I'm rather familiar with TR and their system... Yet I have no idea what you're referring to as a "gaming day." Your points in your CET account are as good as cash at any CET property. You can buy meals, things from the gift shop, etc, and it's kind of like a bank account with CET. You simply deduct the points and just like cash you're good to buy whatever you want (almost) on their properties. These transactions do not trigger other events, such as a "gaming day" of sorts where you have to play or something.

Also, Caesar properties have a set time frame for what they consider their "Gaming Day" such as 12:00am to 11:59pm. So for example if you had a promotion that gave you double points on "Wednesday" then that typically would mean (check the fine print on each promotion) 12:00am Wednesday morning through 11:59pm Wednesday night. Again though, purchasing something with your points has absolutely nothing to do with this. These are just how they define their days for their promotions.

Could you possibly provide a bit more info on your definition of a "gaming day" so we can get on the same page?
Playing it correctly means you've already won.

If you are asking if using your points will count against as far as your trips and ADT generally the answer is yes. Pretty much every time you put a point on or spend a point that marks you as present in the casino. If you don't gamble your ADT for that day will by zero and the day will count.

This is what I was looking for. Thanks a lot, I'll have to decide what to do now. (in reference to drich) Thanks Romes for the welcome as well. I've lurked for a long time and figured I make an account here now that I'm 21

Edit: Also, does the reply button work properly on mobile or am I doing something wrong? When I clicked reply it showed drich's post above what I was writing but when I posted it apparently didn't show it with my post.

Edit again: Sorry realized I should have hit quote.

According to Seven Star Insider, the "Promotional Day" for CET properties is 6 AM to 5:59 AM the following day with a few exceptions.

I'm wondering if I use my points to pay for a meal and don't gamble will my adt be unaffected. I don't want to hurt future comps by grabbing a meal there with points.

Why quote unless there's something specific you're responding to? And then, do as I have done and delete the part your not responding to. Just be careful about editing and don't delete the braces.

DRich is usually right. My guess is yes it triggers a gaming day.

Yes it triggers a TRIP. Referred to as tripping out. If you have 4 days of gambling and then use your comps a different day- you play on those four days will be divided by 5 instead of 4 when a casino determines your value


Ignore gaming day times listed on websites it's different in different jurisdictions

Caesars Windsor is in Ontario and the minimum age is 19. I'd post a picture of my diamond card but I believe I need a certain amount of posts for it. I'd pm you a picture of it if you'd like.

Actual answer was already provided, but it's possible to be married to somebody over 21 and then use their points once you turn 21 yourself.
