Just finished my arraingements.
Jan 27,28th Rio
29th- Feb 2nd Tropicana Laughlin( a super EV party for the Big Game)
3,4 Harrahs Vegas
5,6 Harrahs Laughlin
7-10 Binions
11,12 El Cortez
13-15 Red Rock
Total cost of hotels- minus $27. The three nites at Binions cost me $73, and I got a $100 coupon for my next Expedia purchase.
Airfare- $335, with $84 in credit for my next flight.
Car rental -$235.

As of today, I have $360 in matchplays, and $125 in free slot play. I hope for quite a bit more, as I'll be in town when Sams Town and Coast do their usual Feb. MP offering.

Anyone going to be around for an adult beverage?

I'll be a state away, playing something very different.

But I recommend you remove those hotel names and replace them with venue names Strip, Laughlin, Downtown etc. A certain large gaming company has enough info from your post to positively identify you, assuming your info is correct.

I have a funny feeling that even though he has a ton of comped rooms from the Evil Empire, he does not play much of their sub-par blackjack.

Are the match play and free slot play coupons you found in various advertisements (if so, where did you find them?), or are they promotions that places sent to you due to your previous play there?

Not everybody likes to be rated, I prefer to play unknown in most casinos. Sometimes when you go to Vegas you could be in between comp offers as well. Plus with the hard times in Vegas its easy to get cheap rooms. I have a room booked in one of the places Shadroch is staying for only $15.50 a night including taxes.

Sorry I will just miss you Shadroch!

I might be there

Im visiting family in SoCal on 1/20 and my cousins and I will probably be hitting up Vegas. I'll see what the scheduling is like.

The info is correct, but not every reservation is in the same name. As far as Harrahs goes, I'll play a bit of slots on the card that is the one getting the comp room. I haven't played a hand of BJ in a Harrahs in quite a spell.

$15 in MP and $25 in slot play was sent to me in my name. The rest were scavanged from my usual sources. Coast and Sams Town have recently taken to running an insert in the Vegas papers the last week of the month for the next month. Some of the others are from the LVA, the ACG and some from horsetrading.

You traded your horse for matchplay coupons? What kind of cowboy are you? ;)

Alas, I will be in Vegas the entire time you are in Laughlin Trop. Dare I ask what a super EV party is???
It's a party where X amount of prizes are to be distributed amongst Y amount of guests.
To begin, you are assigned a team. For every FG, you get A amount of points,for a TD you get 2.5A points, various points for saftey, punt returns, ect, ect. Bonus points if your team is ahead at quarter, half, final, ect, ect.

Nice. I just checked it out on their website. Good luck with the cash giveaways.

I heard the NFL has forbidden Vegas casinos from throwing "Big Game" parties this year. The only place you'll be able to view it is in the sports books. Lame.

The US mail was good to me this week. I now have $1120 in matchplay coupons.As most are limited to one per day, I may not have the time to cash them all out. A terrible problem to have, eh?

I've been getting all kinds of junk in the mail for "big game" parties. Although I can't prove they'll be showing the game.

That's awesome. Any hints and how the rest of us can find so many match play coupons.
Eat your vitamins and say your prayers. Then buy a few ACGs and trade coupons with folks who never hit Vegas.
