Just wondering if you recommend taking comp credits ($3,000+) in freeplay
at half value or buying expensive items in the gift store or enjoying fancy meals?
Is it a bad idea to have too much in a comp account in case there are changes in casino management or other unforeseen circumstances? Could it all just disappear for other reasons?

Thank you for all your great tips!

Unfortunately most of Caesars benefits do not merit Playing there any longer. Since Eldorado took over and some probably due to the pandemic their levels don’t really mean much. No more free shows in Las Vegas, no more Diamond Lounge, only four free drinks from the Kiosk that cannot be used at all Bars and limited to $20 a drink for diamond and Seven Stars and and a $10 food credit for Seven Stars which wont even get you a slice a pizza in the food court. No reason to play at Caesars any longer. These few comps for diamond and Seven Stars isn’t worth it any longer considering they have the worst Video Poker odds along with every other casino on the strip.

Yes – as I read from somebody who put it so succinctly – “Tier gets you benefits, play gets you offers.” Maybe that was from one of your books? 🙂 I think in your case that while the $600 fare reimbursement for Diamond Elite is a nice cherry on top, the base of the sundae is what offers you get based on earning 2,500 TCs a day… hopefully it’s a good sundae 😀

Kevin, a lot of your questions are answered if you click on the links I provided about the basics, like how much coin-in to get a tier credit and the separate Reward credit. I will address some of the others in a future blog.

Can you quantify for us just what amount of action you need to give them to earn one Tier Credit and what kind of boosts are available (such as the Diamond in a Day program that for all I know, doesn’t exist any longer)?

Also, while you’re earning those Tier Credits, are you also earning plain old points that can be redeemed for rooms, food, free play, etc.? Are those metered separately from Tier Credits?

Lastly, has CET tightened things up in this regard, as so many other casinos have?

I’m interested specifically in getting offers for Tahoe, so maybe you could explain what Brad’s “heavy play” amounted to.
