Re: Attaining Diamond status

Chatty.....my platinum card says 03/2015, kinda why I figured I still had time. Question though, if I do obtain diamond is it only good til March or is it good for the whole year. Would kinda suck to obtain it but then lose it a month later!
If you get to 15,000 by midnight of 12/31/2014 your diamond status will be good until the end of March 2016. They may even give you until the end of the gaming day of the last day of this year to reach diamond but I would not take that chance. Good luck too you. I hope you are able to reach diamond status. Its not the end of the world if you don't but it carries quite a few benefits with it.

"Your tier score is the total number of Tier Credits you earn From January 1 through December 31." (when your diamond status year expires does not enter this equation). From small booklet "REAP / YOUR REWARDS" available at players club. NEW : it is possible to earn diamond tier in one day. earn 5000 Tier Credits in one day and get 10,000 MORE Tier Credits. (To that I say, good luck, as you will prob be bleary eyed and make errors due to sleep deprivation! Not to mention that you best have a big bank roll!)
Because I had not played much at Windsor this year, I did earn 2500 Tier Credits in one day and received 5000 more Tier Credits. I was playing multi hand machine and hopping between denoms, DDB. Another time, I earned 1K and received another 1K tier credits. We do enjoy the perks at Windsor and at other Harrah's properties.

    That's the good thing about playing at CET properties in Las Vegas Marie because all tier credits earned at different CET casinos get added together and earning 5,000 credits in one day could be easier. Plus playing at different casinos gives you different surroundings as well so you might not get beat up so much physically.

The last I checked on these forums and on VPFree, CET properties in Vegas are not the best paying tables unless you wager $5 denominations to get 9/6 JOB at $25 coin in.

It may vary from person to person, but 5000 hands of $5 max bet JoB with a 95% chance to avoid risk or ruin would be a $9000 bankroll and at least more than 6 hours of play to earn Diamond tier status on a single day.

There is also the option of 10000 hands of 8/5 Bonus $1 max bets, that would be a grind, not sure what the bankroll requirements would be for that.

Good info everyone. Since I was unaware of the calendar issue I will head to Vegas next week as a lowly Platinum member. Hopefully a good run will allow me to hammer out enough tier credits to make a run at diamond much earlier in 2015!
