was at seahwaks game last night

wow

I'm not paying attention, but just saw a replay of the 2 point conversion, lol.

But how loud was it really?

That game was crazy. After the second interception I thought it was game over and started fiddling with my phone. Then I looked up when the crowd started roaring during the punt-return, and was glued to the rest of the game.

Instant classic is an overused phrase, but I think that qualified. What was it like being there?

I've only been to one Seahawks game and I found that one pretty deafening, and I'm assuming it was even on the quiet side since the popular Steelers were in town and it seemed like a 3rd of the crowd was for them. Can't imagine what it would sound like at this game; some of those faithful really have the lungs.

Do any of you guys know the current requirements to get a comped room at the high end joints in vegas these days for table games?

Coming out of retirement, squido?

this is quite the worthy brag.

100% Hard NO. Looking at room rates and laughed. I have never been backed off at the wynn/encore. Its been a very long time since Ive put any kind of play down and i think if i keep my bet range to a minimum I could hustle a room and further comp status soooooo I was curious to see how much action they want for a room these days. I do not want to speak to a host and was hopeful some one here would have a ballpark idea of the current state of the art of the comp game these days.

thanks 😀

For Wynncore, the best person to PM might be Leon who has the epic thread in LVL. He’s a high roller albeit plays VP and craps but he’s very cluey and switched on around comps etc so he might know

For MGM I’d guess Big Whale who writes TRs in LVL might also know

If you decide a play isn't worth the effort and you're driving down, so will have a car, Ive always been really happy with Main Street Station downtown. Disclaimer: haven't stayed there in several years, but when I did, it was always free parking, no resort fees, and the cheapest rack rate in town aside from the scary places. The rooms were pretty basic, but fine. About Best Western level. And the vibe is way better than anything else downtown, imo.

Or you could be the Philip Rivers of 21. That'd be kinda cool too

AI is saying you need about 4 hours of BJ at $100 a hand on average. It varies based on the property, season and day of the week.

Definitely contact leon. Seems he's helped several friends who aren't big gamblers play the status/comp game, so he should be a great source of info.

Thanks Venice - This is pretty much what i figgered (and was hoping)...but im not smart enough to use the A1.

I dont like the casinos but I absolutely am a massive fan of the comp hustle. I know they changed the metric for comps (based on comp city) quite some time ago and just needed a ballpark idea of where it stands today.

Sup thread

@feely thanks for the heads up with leon. Im pretty dialed into how to show em what they need to see and how to boost the casinos perceived EV and all the little tricks etc. to appear significantly moar high valued. Just needed an approx baseline for the action they want for free rooms.

Need more stories about your experiences in the latter.

yeah it's loud but i've only ever been to 3 nfl games and the two as an adult were both in seattle - saw pats when i was very young

when the 2 point conversion went to review nobody had any clue whatsoever what was going on - game was super hard to follow - you mostly had to watch the player reactions to get an idea of what was going on

ie you see a play but don't know if they got the yardage or not so you watch if the offense stays on the field or not - only way to know

Garlick- your 9ers look pretty pretty good

Kind of neat to see them and the Seahawks as two of the top teams. As an objective observer, that was a cool rivalry in the 2010s.

Yeah, if the had a pass rush, I think they'd be legit Superbowl contenders. As it is, the offense is a threat every game, but IDK how sustainable 40 points a game is

Just got back from the Colts vs 49ers

But of injury ridden colts secondary but yeah the 9ers are great on offense when their stars are healthy
