Yes, we’ve been gone for a week, vacationing on a cruise out of New Orleans. It was strange to be out of computer/cell phone range – but I enjoyed the break from technology! Of course there was Internet access on the ship – but I figured I didn’t have such important information to convey to anyone that I needed to pay their arm-and-a-leg fees. My frugal soul really suffers pain on a cruise these days.
Recently Bob Dancer wrote an interesting article titled “Why Do I Play Video Poker?” Funny…I had been thinking about this same topic but just hadn’t gotten around to writing it.
Brad and I play video poker for many of the same reasons that Bob gave. One, we like all the comps.
Watch for bonus points and other promotions on 12/12/12. Also there may be end-of-the-world promos on 12/21/12. Check Scot’s bonus point list often.

“COAST” PROPERTIES
Having done the Albertson gift card promotion myself at the Gold Coast this last Sunday, I have a few more details. For the first $5 gift card, earn only 250 base points.
From “Openings and Closings in Las Vegas”:
CAESARS PALACE: At their new $17 million Bacchanal Buffet,
it’s a wait for an hour or longer to get in.
***Here is a well-kept secret.
In the well-it-finally-happened department: Brad has some very strong dislikes in a casino, including long lines, loud music, salmon, crowds, prime rib. Whenever I show him a coupon for a free offer or tell him about a free invitation that might involve one of these, he will say, “Free doesn’t hack it – they would have to PAY ME to do this.”
A news release from Boyd Gaming:
In November, Boyd Gaming is giving thanks to B Connected members throughout the Valley with numerous promotions and dining specials all month long at The Orleans, Gold Coast, Suncoast and Sam’s Town.
Free Groceries! Kicking off on Sunday, November 18,
A general reminder: Check back frequently to Scot’s Players Club Bonus Points list. Often casinos add bonus multiplier days in the middle of the month. Also, remember that vpFREE2 gives not only information about where you can find good video poker games but also information about slot clubs at each casino, including point values and how they can be redeemed.
TUSCANY
Tuscany keeps some promotions the same this month.
