has anyone ever backed down or be less aggressive during promotion of fear of their accounts being frozen or deleted?

has anyone ever suffered a problem from taking advantage of the promotion(s)?

Steve I do know a guy that was playing $5/$10 machines single line poker. This was at a smaller casino only about 800 machines. He hit two 40k and one 20k royals and was getting drawn for every promo. Other casino players cry foul and they took out the machines, told him they was redoing the high limit area. After the redo they never put them machines back. They also took off all the good games on 3-5-10 hand play left DDB only. This guy is POed to this day as they told him they would put the machines back after the redo of the area.

Talk about sour grapes on the part of the other casino players who cried foul.

Interesting question Steve.
VP usually requires more coin-in,at the casinos i play, than slots or table games, to hold tier level.
So this may have the affect of skewing drawings based on coin-in or earned entries.
Just part of the general dissing of VP,it seems that drawings are shifting to active machine based.
Anybody else notice this?

Some places even disqualify VP from promos and multiple point days.

Some places do not let you play free play on VP machines.

I'm a bit confused. How can you use the benefits if the casinos aren't open?

Several good examples of the continuing trend for VP.
Seems to be no stopping it. Hosts that i encounter show little concern about dissatisfaction expressed
by top tier VP players.
Good game availability shrinking. Comp's eroding. Casino's act as if they would not mind losing VP.
Not sure about the future.

Tech, I think the future is gone for VP players when this is over.
