Thanks, looks like some nice new gaming coupons, especially for the D and Golden Gate....

Bit of a rise in profit.
If you consider just the non point gambling coupons for Strip/Downtown casinos, the 2016 book had expected return of $85.7 ($56.1 excluding new members only coupons) while the 2017 has a $94.7 return (But more importantly, $81.24 excluding new members coupons).
If you include all gambling coupons (excluding ones that require points) that's $114.99 ($71.89 excluding new members) for 2016 and $155.14 ($141.59 excluding new members) for 2017..
So between 10-97% added value over last year.

With the addition of the $25 match plays, the ACG is really starting to challenge the MRB as a better choice for seeking value from coupons.

I like using the gambling coupons in Strip/Downtown as a metric.
My spreadsheet for 2016
By that metric, ACG 2015 ($97.74 expected return) was worth 515.77%, ACG 2016 was worth 452% its value while the 2017 is worth 499.7%.
The LVA in 2015 had $129.24 expected return which means it was worth 349% and 2016 had $178.61 expected value which means 482% its membership cost.
We'll see what this year's LVA brings.

Am I correct that you are including ACG MPs that can only be used by new slot card club members in your
calculations?

Yes. Excluding new members coupons and out of strip/downtown (hopefully I got the numbers for 2015 right):
2015 - $70.02/369%
2016 - $56.1/296%
2017 - $81.24/429%
