as u alluded to , now there is no 1.5%% slot clubs ,esp outside of vegas no ??
It's more than the slot club. It can be include promotions and mailers. and on occasion, when the stars align, you get a combination that exceeds 1.5%
It's always a mistake. And casinos try not to make mistakes. But sometimes they happen. But you have to look for them and be ready to exploit them when they occur.
An example that occurred two years ago: A casino had a 0.3% slot club for both slots and video poker. they had a 6-hour 12x promotion. they meant to exclude video poker, but they didn't. The best game to play during that promotion was $10 8/5 Bonus. they have numerous such machines and you can easily slide over to an adjacent machine when you hit a W2G on all quads or higher.
Fortunately none of the four players who figured this out was stupid enough to go to the booth and ask, "Do you mean to include video poker too?" Of course the answer would have been no. And the promotion would have been killed.
they paid off all players who exploited this --- and them promptly kicked them out of the slot club. To my mind, it was well worth it! Playing a quarter million through the machines with a 1.8% advantage easily makes up for about 5 years of that casino's regular promotions.
I do understand that playing this big is beyond many of the people here.
