I am a black card holder at resorts world catskills.They have just cut my freeplay from over 300 dollars a week to 40 dollars.i have lost over 20 k at this casino!!no prob with that I can well afford it with ease however I will limit or completely stop my play there.paco and others please let me know if u were treated the same way!!also was told I would receive a flat screen t.v.never happened.i am considering going to the casino gaming commission to file a formal complaint!!!!!!

My level of play there is not near what I play or have played at other casinos nor is it at your level. My free play offers from them have been reduced though. Because of this I have been playing more at Mount Airy again.

Is this the old Monticello harness racino?

[paco13]

No Bill, it is the new casino/resort on the old Concord resort property. It is a real casino with tables and class 3 machines. The racino is still open and despite me not hardly ever going there any more they still send me better offers than the new place. They are suppose to open an indoor water park, I believe the largest in the East, and all sorts of sports and year round outdoor activities next summer.

I have a serious question to ask. There is no malice in my question and it's not made to stir up controversy.

The experience you are reporting is all too common. Odds and comps have been dropping around the country for years. New casinos that are built start out with the same odds as their competitors. Whenever a rogue casino ups the odds or becomes generous with the comps in order to draw away customers, something always seems to happen that reverses the situation. A perfect example was the Margaritaville Casino in Biloxi. They offered 99% games and had an excellent comp program. The local government found a way to shut them down. There is no doubt in my mind this was done intentionally.

So here's my question. How bad do the odds and comps have to get before you quit playing VP? If the games become unbeatable, would you quit?

[Tedlark]

There has to be SOME reason why this person's comps were cut so drastically. I think there's more to the story. You don't just get an 85% reduction in freeplay for no reason.

[billryan]

I'd been getting $150 twice a week plus $75 food per week at a locals casino.
In August, it dropped to $30 and $20 weekly and $15 in food monthly. It got sold and I suppose the old owners felt the drop would help their bottom line.

maybe something to do with some big wins I had in the last month.not that big though,i am still behind.maybe some bean counters idea to help there bottom line.i read they r doing very bad financially.As to fl phil question I can always play nl cash games.i did well at that thou no where near the fun of v poker!!
