CET free play

A guy posted on the other forum that his gf was at Ballys and couldnt get her freeplay because they were out of funds and to come back another day and be early in line to make sure. Looks like bancruptcy is showing up.

WTF? That's crazy. Maybe they just ran out of the reel rewards coupons? (yeah, I'm an optimist!)

This is not surprising to me. Since the news of bankruptcy had come out for CET it's been a real "gamble" to play at any of their properties and I'm sure that this has steered quite a few people away from them. I've been watching how the (Global) economic downturn has been proceeding and it looks more grim as days go by. These boom/bust cycles happen about once every 7 years, each one more severe than the last. This has hurt almost every business where only the strong will survive. I don't expect CET to survive this one. They need a rabbit to be pulled out of the hat : )

I agree with you Blase. I bet they just ran out of the free play coupons. This happened to me several years ago because they had not updated their free play coupons and most of them had already expired.

I asked Kevin to clarify the free play. Post says she's a diamond also. If that matters.

Would be making a call to gaming comisssion and local news depending on what facts are.

Nevada gaming law states casinos must have enough cash on hand to cover every chip on their floor, and can be as high as 100's of millions of dollars... depending on the casino

I would still like to hear the REST OF THE STORY!!

Maybe there is a big jump in number of people playing before the tier score promotion ends in a week. KC mails the coupons and some other properties you key it in at the machine. Maybe Vegas needs to switch to that way!

I agree Laurie- I think all CET properties should do the same. At NOLA and Tunica - you download the freeplay with a code into the machine and you don't have to use it all at one machine.
