    Ty, you have to go to the player’s club.

    You sign one form for your free play, and one form for each comp level.

    Did my 4000, and had 3 forms to sign: $400 free play, $40 comp, and $100 comp. just like ACG point doubler, manager has to manually input the comp $$.

    Do you get an actual printed comp or is it loaded to your card? I could never get up to $100 on a meal as a solo diner who does not drink alcohol in Vegas.

    When there in early June it was noted a man drinking a ginormous canned beer walked up to the turnstiles and was waved off; and then backed off and guzzled his beer. Approaching again they repeated and wouldn’t admit. He had a very small backpack (man bag?)) and no backpacks allowed.
    But women were seen walking in with large Bags(?) on their shoulders or arms. So......
    ....I would just duck into Fremont and walk out the casino doors. Or Horseshoe depending on which end of the street you sought. :) @Ty was there, he recognized discrimination for man bags....:cool: I’m sure if it.

    Cakebread is one of my favorite chardonnays. It’s v buttery, so not to everyone’s taste. But it’s one of my go tos. Love that Hugo’s has the half bottles. Just right for a solo dinner.

    It goes on your card as comp. You just have to sign the vouchers at the club before they load it to your card.

    A crossbody bag should be fine - but YMMV with security. As @bubbakitty noted you can always bypass the Fremont St security by walking through a casino. They seem less strict.

    But remember, this guys bag was the size of a large wallet with strings over the shoulders. Why he didn’t just take it off and sling it over his shoulder ....man bag dude. This ain’t no backpack. .... with a smirk. :woohoo:

    Best of luck today. Is 8/5 BP the best paytable at Binion’s? Too lazy to check VP Free.

    It is. Or at least close there used to be a deuces machine with 99.2%, but I think that’s gone.
