Stations Double Pts for Seniors (Sue?)

Sue, what's the scuttlebutt on why Stations isn't offering the double points for us seniors in August? Hopefully it's not going to become permanent!

They didn't do it in July, either. I'm not sure what determines when this is offered. This month the concentration is on other things -- the new free slot tournament on Sundays (open to everyone, not just seniors), Great Giveaway sign-ups (the NFL football contest), and the launch of a brand-new Sports Connection program, allowing people to place sports bets on their smartphones from anywhere in Nevada. The minimum deposit to open a Sports Connection account is $50.

Sue, Stations is also promoting the $12.99 prime rib. Is that in the steak houses? Do you know if you can pay with points? Thanks for your reply.

Yes, that deal is in the steakhouses. I believe you can pay with points, but you may want to ask first.

Fredo, if you have a regular monthly room offer, you probably have a 6x points offer in the kioske, waiting for you. You don't have to be booked or checked in the hotel to get it. It pays to check the kioske each time you go, even if it is not a senior day.

Most of those offers are not 6X, but 6 points. Or 10 points. Or whatever. This means, for example, that instead of earning 3 points per dollar played on video poker, you earn 6 points per dollar -- so it's really 2X points, not 6X. If it says 10 points, it's really 3.somethingX.

That's right. It is really double points. I believe it is 6x the old system, but with the new system it is 2x the everyday 3x.

Thanks, Tony. Yes, I know about my mailer offer, but I used to use that offer on any day but Wed, so that I could have two days of double points. Tryin' to maiximize my play!
