I’ve only ever stayed at New York New York, Belagio, and Flamingo. I was curious about the email.

Got it too

Not going back to hangout fest. Done going to LSU games. Selling my voodoo fest tickets. Skipping Mardi Gras for the foreseeable future.

My post count will increase a ton over the next few years.

Don't they "magically" control the odds on slots or any video device?

They could dial in the odds a bit, and people would come flocking back.

I flew to Vegas about a week after 9/11. Flight from huntsville was like 10000 points and got a suite or a week free with 1 day notice.

Plane was empty, golf courses empty, strippers fighting for money cause strips joints empty. Had a very good time in there.

Haven't gotten anything from Paris from when I went. That said, I've been meaning to get back to Vegas. Maybe I will after the new year

There is a Nevada State Gaming Commission mandated minimum pay-out percentage on slots that is required of every casino by law.

In Nevada it varies but generally it's around 95%, so increasing it to a level that would make patrons notice more payouts would come directly off the bottom line.

Not saying that casinos wouldn't do it, just adding some information.

I did not get the email. I'm not mad about that either.

$100 video poker odds are like $99.71/100, read that last on drudge so you know it's true. Video poker odds are best slot odds if you know how to play 100% by the book and do not make any mistakes.

They sent it to all the folks the FBI wants to interrogate about the mass murder.
Liking it to how sheriff departments across the country send out letters to the wanted telling them that they won a TV or something, just come down to this place and pick it up.

The big sting operation will nab all of yall gullible to go.

Stayed at Harrahs or have a players card there? Caesars owns Harrahs and the guy who sent the email is the CEO of Caesars

Damage control by CET. The shooter was a 7* at CET, the highest level of CET's card member program.

Thanks. That's what I assumed. It's the only one I actually booked on my own. Wife booked NY, NY and my company booked Bellagio for a work conference.
