Sam's Town Video Poker Purge

50-60K per visit.

(Bill kills). Getting no love for playing JOB @quarters several times last year (I'm not swooft with coin in memory) sent me to SP from ST. Hope the Bob's tip is a winner!

Interesting. I actually do that much or more over a 5 day trip. I had been getting 5 nights, a gold card and $75 free play. After my summer trip where we did more coin in than usual my offers dropped to 3 nights, $25 free play and no food. I know another player that does 20k per day that used to get $100 free play, 5 nights and gold card. His offers have dropped to 5 nights, $75 free play and $50 per day food. I've been trying to figure out WTF has been going on here.

Bill mentions 3 visits to Billy Bob's, so that must mean his 50-60k is done over 3 days of play?

Also, if Bill is playing DDB those machines are likely set with a much higher theo than JOB or BP.

Captain Bill -- can you confirm for us how many days you are playing and what the pay table is on the dollar DDB machines you're playing?

Mare, 3 night stays, so 3 days with an average of 20K a day is normal for me. Play $DDB on 9/6 machines.

Thanks, Bill -- appreciate the clarification. Your theo is definitely higher playing that game, so I'm sure that's why there is such a disparity between offers.

est. I avg. $700-$800 in per day (for 5 days) and $10-$15 per hand at blackjack and have been receiving gold card offers/$100 free play since last sept., and bconnected
offers show gold card offer(s) at least through the end of may 2015.
as stated before, quite trying to figure out casino marketing offers a long time ago.
wife used to receive gold card offers and she never goes over $500 in per day.

Captain Bill -- we're trying to figure out why our friend has had his offers cut back. Can you tell me if you're a winner or loser at Sam's Town? We suspect our friend has been cut because he was pretty lucky there last year and ended up a good winner.

Would you believe Sams was only one of two casinos I lost at last year...to the tune of 5K. Maybe that explains it. But so far I'm up 3k there this year after one visit, and I'll be there again in a couple of weeks.

It also occurs to me that of the 495K status points I put thru Boyd last year, probably 300k of them were at Sams Town...we do love Billy Bobs!

for what it's worth, maybe that also explains my gold card offers.
my win/loss statement for for st in 2014 showed an estimated loss of $5,115; in 2013 an estimated loss of $4,684 after a plus of $20,105 in 2012.
lose long enough and maybe that's the answer.
but as captain bill stated, the gold card perks offset a lot of the losses.
again, after many years visiting st, my gold card offers (for the first time) started showing up last fall.
