Quick Hits - Downtown 6/25 - 6/28 - Semi-Live

Well if you hear a scream and turn around and she has won 2,000 $'s on a double up STOP HER!! There is a 1-800# for such situations.

 

Sorry I'm new(ish) to DT, but as a VP player I have to ask. What is this 4Q promotion you're talking about, and what does it mean to max it out?

Thanks!

 

You max out at 4000 points. This will get you $400 in Free Play plus 140 comp dollars on top of your normal earnings.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

 

Thank you for sharing, I had no idea! I've only ever played craps at the 4Q (I was there last Feb when they and Binions were attacked by hackers and only tables were live). I really enjoyed the vibe of the casino - albeit it was pretty empty due to the circumstances. I'll spend some time there this coming trip.

 

Up at 8 - going to need a nap at some point today. It was a long haul to get here, but it’s so nice to be back in my happy place.

Played a quick session this morning on $1 JoB and had some coffee. Down $200 on $1,600 coin in. No premium hands - not even a four to a Royal yet, but the trip is young. It’s nice to play VP. Four Queens mostly has all machines on with chairs removed. In some places, including the bars, every other machine is off. Don’t worry - the @royalflusher seat is on. Palace bar is closed this morning - I hope it’s just because it’s so early. They’ve also moved some things around - breaking up the banks of 6/9 JoB machines a bit.




Decided to take a bit of a wander before it got too hot - I always forget how hot it gets in summer. Stopped at the D to pick up my match play - surprise that’s being doubled this month too! Score! Pocketed the MP chips for my next longer trip. Upstairs at the D looks great - Bar Canada is gorgeous - too bad they don’t have the Vue Bar paytables. Sadly, the Sinbad machine didn’t make it through the renovations, but Sigma Derby lives! Played through my FP and turned $150 into $132.50.


Over at Magnolias for breakfast. Limited hours right now, but breakfast looks good. I didn’t realize how hungry I was until the food showed up. Nom nom nom.

 

That’s right. Probably won’t make it through them both - but it’s good to have Goals.

 

Thanks for the update, eliza! What restaurants are open at the D? Is the D Grill open for takeout?

 

First quad of the trip. And it’s my favorite - Four Queens at the Four Queens.

 

Thanks for doing a report!

FYI, The Palace Bar hasn't been open since the re-opening.

 

D Grill is still closed. Andiamo, Coney Island, and Coffee Bar are open.

 

Is Palace Bar the one that opens out to Fremont Street?

 

This made me laugh. I got an email confirmation this time for what I believe is the first time ever. They always ask, it never comes. My success rate is in the low single digits.

Are the machines arranged in a way that my wife and I can play next to each other if we move a chair?

 

No, that's King's Bar.

 

I never thought about that, but will going forward.
Thanks for the pics, your TR is getting me pumped for my trip out next Friday!

 

@eliza what do you mean the D match play doubled? Are you referring to the Spirit Airline promotion? So it is $100 now?

 

The comp offers doubled. So if you’d normally get $50 matchplay as part of a comp offer, you’d now get $100. It’s unrelated to the airline deal.

 

Not Eliza but the signal in 4Q's sucks so she might be a while. The D monthly free play offer was doubled and based on her post it sounds like the Match play might be too although that isn't posted on the one card site. In my example I normally get $100 FP and $100 MP. If both are doubled for June and July that would be very nice.

 

Glad you finally made it. Welcome Vegas! Looking forward to following along!
