I agree with Gamesman, awesome report and love the gambling details! Going on a run from $300 to over $22K is unreal, well done!

 

Turns out baccarat is not an easy game after all haha when I stopped playing I lost what I made last night ($9k) and was down an additional $10k for the trip but...

I took what was left of my BR that I was willing to lose ($900) and dumped it in a $5 VP machine figuring what's the worst that could happen.

I've never played VP before.

Those fucking credits sure burn quickly when you're playing Max 25 credits! But then I was dealt this

Which paid $6250

This softened the sting of having a $20k BR swing (my second one this trip) So I'm down $3k in total for the trip. It was certainly a lot better but could have been worse.

For those who care about these things, I earned over 70k TC and 27k RC during this trip

 

Yep, at least $4,000 in comps. Well done!

 

What does $27k in RC translate into? I don't really pay attention to total rewards. Is that $270?

Oh, and well done on the VP! Sometimes it's not about the skill... it's about the luck!

 

Yup. For CET Reward Credits, the ratio is 100 = $1

 

I asked the host for my theo numbers and here's what she sent over:

Harrah's Harveys
Theo $11,613 Theo $3,295
AVGBet $545.25 AVGBet $532
Time 31:25 Time 8:40

I asked her to comp my room charges of $80+ and she responded: "Tahoe’s policy is to always use rewards credits first. Since this is your 1st visit to Tahoe, as a courtesy I will comp without using RC’s."

She then invited me to return to Tahoe and ended her email with this - "I can offer upfront airfare as well."
