There's basically no playable vp at any Vegas Casears properties.Possibly because of bankruptcy considerations, you now need to go elsewhere for good video poker.

Go across the street to the Palms. They have some Good Video poker and promotions. You may want to take a cab or drive over it looks closer than it actually is I've made that mistake once.

A second vote for The Palms. I was last at the Palms in summer of 2014 and they had several good paytables. Also the Gold Coast has several decent games as well as more reasonably priced food. Good luck on your trip!

If he is on an offer, would you suggest to no play them, possibly hurting further CET offers? Even with their dollar 8/5 Bonus that earns full points? One drawback about visiting Vegas, your lodging has to be covered somehow.

Dollar 8/5 Bonus at full points would be "playable," in my opinion. (Not for me --- but for out of towners on an offer). But it's a surprise to me that they exist. Last time I checked, all 8/5 BP and 9/6 JoB games required $25 per point at the Rio.Vman is correct that stiffing a casino has consequences. It can easily cost you more in order to keep the offers coming than the offer is worth. You need to consider what games you'll be playing BEFORE you accept the offer.

We were at the Rio in January. We did play single line $1 8/5 bonus poker. and the point requirement was, indeed, $10 per tier credit.

The Venetian has Hot Roll which pays well.
