So, I put it to the test last Monday at Rincon in San Diego, a Caesar's property.
The day was also a multiple point day (every Monday and Wednesday this month are multiple point days as well as play 50 points and get a free buffet or $20 food credit in any restaurant--a deal in itself)
I played dollar VP (8/5 BP) and it took most the day, but I did manage 2556 points. The boothling told me to wait a couple of days and the bonus 5000 tier points would be added)
Today, I checked and sure enough 7556 tier points. One more day like this and I'll be Diamond through March 2015.
I used the $20 food coupon in the coffee shop (their prime rib breakfast skillit is the BEST).
The one thing that has me concerned is I'm supposede to have also received 4x reward comp credits for the play and it did not reflect that in my bonus point total...however, I also know that many times, it takes a week or so for the computers to catch up and add those...so we'll see.
Here I thought with the raising of the required total for diamond to 15,000 points would mean a big reduction next year in diamond players, I'm now convinced that there will be more than ever. I dare see, it now seems easier than ever to make diamond.
As it was discussed in other posts, Caesar's goal here is to get people to play more during the day; which seems like a good idea.
So, here I was already to throw my Diamond card into the trash heap at the end of the year, it appears I'll be hanging around for much longer. If I were to take a guess into the future, I'll bet they will once again change the system in a couple of years, if not before.
