Slot Tourneys at Gold Coast

I've participated in slot and VP tournaments at a variety of places (Palace Station, GVR, Boulder Station, Sam's Town, etc.,) where it was 2-3 free nights plus a free entry into the tournament. I keep getting the Gold Coast offer of 3 nights and tournament entry for $99 and am wondering what those who've participated have experienced. I recognize that they are all come-ons to get you in the house to gamble, but I've found some to be better than others, although when they're free they're all good. In short, does the Gold Coast run a good slot tourney that would make it worth the $99 entry? Thanks.

I did it one time, I won $99 -- or was it $100?, anyway enuf to make it really a free room for 3 nights, and this was before they had a resort fee. but even if u don't place "in the money", $99 is not a bad deal for 3 nights. and the less people that show up, the better your chances, although I think they reserve the right to change the payout structure for a very low turnout.

I have participated in many slot tourneys at the Gold Coast. They are well organized, the machines are always in good condition, and they're a lot of fun! They serve a continental breakfast in the morning, and there's always plenty of snacks and cold/hot beverages throughout the day.
The Orleans - another Boyd's property - has similar slot tourneys and are also a lot of fun! Boyd's treats their guests well

Edited to add: Spend a few dollars on the slots and you will get offers for free slot tourneys with 3 free nights. They are consistently in my bconnected on-line offers/account.

I certainly agree. Just yesterday (1/20) I got a mailer for $50 in free play for 1/17 or 1/18. Just a tad late.
Sent an email to my host complaining and the $50 free play was there today. GREAT customer service!!
