    I received the offer for bike or freeplay (similar to the tv and mattress promotion before COVID-19) but it’s scant on details. It identifies the bike I could receive and just says or play up for better one. We were planning to go Labor Day weekend but may go week earlier as it may be better deal. So if anyone else has received the offer does it give the tier credit requirements and what bike options are? TIA for any input on this

    Wow....

    WARNING: If you are a bike rider, these comments do NOT apply to you.

    I am thinking the percent of bike riders that are also casino degenerates is low. Just my thinking.

    The bike offer with no additional play is a huffy Holbrook which isn’t all that appealing to me. But if the play up offers are better then I’d consider taking the bike knowing I’ll hit the tier credit requirements. The offer specified that I had to choose between the bike, freeplay or table games at time of reservation

    OP/ED: Hurdles 3 & 4 would be of interest. Decisions, decisions...

    I saw this offer and the first thing I thought was how the hell am I going to fly this shit across the country. Perhaps I’ll bring it along with the mattress.

    Hurdle 2 seems like the sweet spot, and attainable for many. Tring, (or any other math gurus) what would the house edge on a 6/5 BP or something common with a $2,500 "jackpot" at the end? it seems close to break even if one can find a hold of around 3% of less for VP, I do realize that the $2,500 in casino play would have to played through to get a fraction of the $2,500 as take home, but for someone who was looking to churn their way to diamond, this seems like a nice payback for your efforts.

    Where did you see this Hurdle information. I received the same deal and it offered me the Huffy or $200 or I could "play up." Is this in a 24 hour period or throughout your stay? Thanks for your help in advance.

    I looked at the 8,000 TC offer. The scooter itself costs $2500 brand new, and $2500 might not even get me 2500 TC. I'd love to try, but I'll pass

    These are great gifts for family members of degens.
    Just like all of those freebies that get handed out on Wednesdays at the local... comforters, rice cookers, clocks, tupperware sets... where do you think those go? ;)

    Take the casino play at the first level, turn it into a grand, buy a real bike like a Specialized Sirrus or an Allez!

    I didn't get the offer but I would love to go for hurdle 1 or 2.

    I'm still using the slicker/peeler I got about a year ago at least every week. :D Saved me $9.99 from buying a new one and it only cost me... well let's not talk about that.

    Can you tell me the date of that email you received? I am searching for the Bicycle Offer/Free Play deal offered to wife and I cannot find it. It appears that @3OfDiamonds may be correct that the Bike deal is better than the Free Play Frenzy deal the week before.

    @FABismonte June 25, though for whatever reason that email was from the host.
    I wish CET would put the details online.

    I didn't haven't yet received an email about the bicycle offer, but the offer is in my TR "offers" section. I received the email about Free Play Frenzy on 7/15.

    I received my first e-mail about the "CYCLE OR CASINO PLAY GIVEAWAY" a half hour ago. Had looked for it in my offers online and had not seen it...but hadn't looked since the beginning of this thread.

    Aug 24-30:
    • 0 TC: Pacific Bicycles 26in Men’s Stratus or Pacific Bicycles 700C Women's Trellis Bicycle or $200 in Casino Play
    • 1,500 TC: TWO Pacific Bicycles 26in Men’s Stratus or Pacific Bicycles 700C Women's Trellis Bicycle or $500 in Casino Play.
    • 8,000 TC: 2020 Honda Metropolitan Scooter or $2,500 in Casino Play
    • 50,000 TC: 2020 Indian Scout Bobber Sixty Motorcycle or $10,000 in Casino Play
    • 75,000 TC: 2020 Ducati Panigale V2 Motorcycle or $16,000 in Casino Play
    • 100,000 TC: 2020 Harley-Davidson Deluxe Motorcycle or $25,000 in Casino Play
    8,000 TC is doable for me. Currently staying on a play 5,000 TC get $1,500 FP offer. This offer is slightly better (3.2 TC/$ FP vs 3.33 TC/$ FP).

    Expected loss of running $80k through 7-5 Bonus Poker is $1588, so there is over $900 profit in the offer.

    Do bonus TC count in this cause 2500 TC in a day gets you a 5000 bonus?
