For the second month in a row Brad and I are leaving town around the first of the month, this time to visit family in Georgia. Thus I will cover just a few promotions now and will likely have more information to share when we return. But be sure to check out special holiday offers for the 4th of July. There are usually a number of multiple-point promotions that day; consult Scot’s list closer to that time.
The Westin
Max Casino at this casino is closing June 30. Scot Krause’s article in “Gaming Today” gives all the details.
TUSCANY
The 20% senior discount moves to the Pub e65 for the whole month of July.
RAMPART
They are advertising that their newly-named senior “50 Plus PARTY Tuesdays” is “new and improved, offering more benefits.” See the details here.
SOUTH POINT
From a press release: Beginning Monday, July 3, South Point Hotel will introduce “Prime Time Mondays” for our Casino Club Card holders age 50 and older. Prime Time Mondays will offer a $5,000 Free Slot Tournament from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The tournament’s first place winner will receive a $1,000 cash prize and additional places will be rewarded with free play. In addition, guests who pay with their points will receive half point dining all day at all restaurants (Primarily Prime Rib & Baja Miguel’s are closed on Monday) and half point bingo all day. Movies will also be offered at a discounted rate of just $4 all day (additional fee for 3D & XD). This promotion is not valid on holidays or during special bingo events.
PALMS
The last day for their buffet before they close it for major changes is July 30. The new 24-hour coffee shop, the Lucky Penny, will open to the public on Saturday morning, July 1. I saw it today as it was practicing a soft opening with invited guests. Fancy-dancy!
Watch for machines to disappear or be moved around as they continue to replace carpeting. Hopefully our favorite ones will re-appear and intact.
New parking passes are available at the players club. The old ones expired on June 30.
No plans to put in the check-cashing program available at other Station casinos until after the cage area is renovated. Proposed time for that to start is late summer.

If you get to missing my gambling chatter here while we are on vacation, you can listen to me talk about gambling and casinos in a couple recent interviews:
- A podcast from the “House of Cards” radio show
- An American Casino Guide YouTube video
And if you want to read a funny little story about Brad, it is buried in the middle of a recent long Review-Journal article about casino chairs.
100 play Penney is back at the Palms. Location is near the Palms Tower elevators.
Worked for me last week. Try the Bonus Poker Game.
Thanks Jean. {:-)
There is a 2 for 1 buffet coupon for the Palms. Will we be able to use this at another restaurant at the Palms?
Hi Jean, as always, thanks for keeping us informed each month. Have a wonderful vacation. Hope it’s a bit cooler in GA.
We will be in Cherokee on July ten and eleven. Maybe we will run into you there. Thanks for all your info!
