		<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s not just the reduction of benefits on a systemwide basis--it&#039;s also how they are treating players individually. 2017 was one of the heaviest play years for me in the last decade. Despite that, I&#039;m getting lousy room BOGO offers from Boyd when I used to get 3-6 free nights a quarter; I&#039;m getting feeble 20% room discounts from Stations when I used to get 60% discounts and resort fee waivers; I now get &quot;casino rate&quot; from the El Cortez when for SIXTEEN years, I got three free nights + 40 free play + 50 food credit, every quarter, like clockwork. Other results are similar, and several casinos have stopped sending me anything at all. While I&#039;m not a local, I&#039;ve heard tales of Boyd, Stations, and the rest of the gang similarly squeezing local mailer offers into nothingness.

I&#039;ve never given CET even a chance to sniff my wallet, but I&#039;m given to understand that they&#039;re beating up their best players, slashing their benefits in particular (and everyone&#039;s in general). Given that their games are lousy, they should be doing everything they can to keep those players--but maybe things are booming anyway and they just don&#039;t care any more. It&#039;s all going downhill, folks.]]></description>
