The Path II

[Hiker1]

Agree, I won’t reach Platinum this year with the program changes (read reductions) this year, but not going to chase and throw away $$$

I am not going to chase and Make Soar status this year either. You need 4,000 status points every 6 months to maintain it. I have to run through 500 bucks just to earn one status point. Insanity. 2,000,000 coin in every 6 months to maintain it. No thanks.

I will miss my Platinum goal this year, which means missing a free room night. I will just concede that perk.

You don't need Platinum to get room comps. For years I got decent rooms Sun-Thur as Gold.

CET austerity has kicked in. I suppose I can have a few heavy coin in days next year. I’d like a 500 TC day. Should be -$100 day; likelier almost -$1,000. I’m not that gung ho. It’s a kamikaze mission.

Without you guys, this site would be pretty dead. I encourage everyone to post more, so long as it's on topic and in good spirit. Not sure there are any useless posts, like there are no dumb questions. I disagree with a lot of posts, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't be posted for the benefit of others who agree, or who can use the info.

And of course I root for everyone, because it's not us against each other- it's all of us against the house! Good Luck all!

Ditto. Hope some new blood pops in as well. Lots of interesting stuff on this site. Poker related or not. Unfortunately, just from what I see, there are very few younger dedicated vp players. I do however, see them get regularly smoked at Blackjack or Roulette tables. Craps seems to have some die hards left.

Plenty of younger craps players. If VP was abolished, I’d join the troughs. Blackjack requires a fair amount of study. Roulette has too much house edge.
