Diamond in a Day - CET Total Rewards

Diamond in a Day - CET Total Rewards

Is it still possible to get Diamond in a Day?

I have read about it in the past, just curious.

I don’t know if it’s possible to pull shenanigans on machines. I don’t play slots, but I would be surprised if they were all the same, seeing as different slots and slot-like machines have different house edges. And if they are different, then they would have to make it very obvious what the machines were providing as far as TC/ bet. This sort of transparency doesn’t exist at table games. If it does with slots, ok.

I actually don't play at Caesars properties much at all anymore.
But my recollection is:

(1) You can always see how many TCs you've earned in a day by putting you card in any machine

(2) Based on this, I've never had a problem getting the daily TCs bonuses, though I've never done significant machine play on a TC multiplier day

(3) The electronic table games tend to be really stingy at awarding TC. It's a consistent amount on a given game, though that amount is not publicized. For example, I noticed that electronic baccarat seemed to pay 1 TC for every $45 coin-in.

The money will disappear 5x slower between March 25-31.

I'm up 73 bucks on vp I played while waiting for me breakfast order! 😀 Free breakfast!!

Actually the 5x isn't "felt" while you're at the machine. Plus, as long as you're feeding a hungry machine, you might as well go for a daily bonus too. Which is where the 5x isn't a factor.

I wouldn’t be so sure about that. I will investigate further this summer when they will undoubtedly have more tier multiplier says, but at this point, I have reason to believe they pull shenanigans with tier point earnings during the tier multiplier periods.

IME, and I only play vp, it's been on the up and up. I kept track last trip, with a tier step as the target, and not wanting to gamble unnecessarily. I didn't calc down the the tier credit, but I stopped after I hit my target, and the 5x bonus came through close enough.

Table games are the best opportunity for them to cheat. But why would a worker drone do that, unless there's a monetary incentive? If corporate organized a cheating plan, they risk serious consequences from disgruntled employees dropping a dime. I have a feeling Eldorado has a lot of those.

It's true that there's very large variance to this. In fact, you're pretty likely to lose quite a bit more than the EV value, with a smaller but non-trivial chance of decent windfall.

Yeah, I only mentioned it because I see people say "Oh, you get a 98% payout, so 5000 tc only costs you 164 bucks". They always forget that 98% includes hitting royals, which you're unlikely to do on a short trip. Unless you're leon.

But this is basically true of every poker tournament you enter, right?
As poker players, we should always be thinking of gambling in terms of EV and not the modal outcome.

Not for me. I suck.


Random crap to mention since I'm back in Vegas:

I really like these 4 drinks you get with Diamond Plus. Freakin Fiji water costs 8 bucks if you buy it! Orange juice was only 7 bucks.

It's nice being in Paris compared to the Shoe. The elevators work and lots of them are running. My particular room hasn't been great so far - maid forgot to empty the trash from the last guest.

Typical CET last night- only one side of the escalators were running to the parking garage, the gates at the garage entrance were screwy. One lane was opening the gate for everyone, the other lane wasn't opening for anyone.

Also typical for me at 1/3- had a small profit, 2 more hands until the bb comes around, then I'm gone. Crap, get dealt KK, first time this trip. I bet it hard, this one guy that's been playing weird all night minraises, I shove to make him fold JQ that's going to flop 2 pair. He calls, board runs out a set of aces for him, no improvement for me.

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned that Caesars is doing a "system-wide" 5x tier credit multiplier from March 25-31, meaning it should apply to almost all Caesars casinos.

You should be able to get Diamond for all of this year and next year just by earning 2500 TCs on a day during the promotion.

I've been told by the dealers and floor people at my local Caesar's owned room that poker NEVER is part of those promos.
It's not even worth swiping the card in the kiosk to register for the promo if you're only playing poker.

Sure it is. Sometimes she works and sometimes it doesn't. Might as well take a shot.


So much for enterprise wide, playing Harrah’s pompano in flordia and there’s no 5x until the 28th.


A guy at my Horseshoe table got trapped in an elevator for awhile. I'm supposed to move over there in a couple days. yikes


There I was, sitting at Super Double Times Pay video poker, having shortly before fed the last of the money I brought with me into this machine. I had brought several thousand with me, but a failed Circuit event, and a couple bad 1/3 sessions put a substantial dent in my cash stash. Based on prior experience, a successful assault on Diamond should cost me between $700 and a thousand. That was going for 5000 tc and without a multiplier, so I should have more than enough I thought. I'm only going for 2500 tc because of the 5x and I don't really need to get it this trip because I'm coming back for the WSOP, and maybe the 10x if they do it again.

And yet I was nearly tapped out, and I'm considering the embarrassment of going to the cage for an "ATM" withdrawal from my checking account. I needed to polish this off before 6am to be in "one day", so I couldn't wait till the bank opened. Then I started winning more than I bet. On a 10 handed game it's 70 dollars a push. Then I hit non-premium quads with no multiplier, 125 bucks iirc. Then a few more winners, and then the big one. Quad deuces with a multiplier for a thousand bucks. I was able to get my 2500 tc, which is 12,500 with the 5x, plus the 5000 tc daily bonus. woo hoo

I still want Diamond Plus for the free waters. I don't know why I like the idea so much, I usually just bring 5 bucks worth of Walmart water and it lasts over a week.

Nice hit. I was in Vegas for the tail end of the 10X earlier this year. By far the worst VP trip of my life. Did not see one premium quad over 4.5 days.

Heading to AC for the 5X promo. We should hit the 25K Diamond level for my wife pretty quickly and then begin working my card to get me to the 15K first level of Diamond.

Gotta take advantage of these multipliers. Makes it so easy…

Also, are you speaking about the Fiji water? If so, I don’t think you get those unless you become Seven Stars, if I recall correctly.


Diamond Plus gets four free drinks in Vegas per day. They can be anything.


Ha - oh..
Ive never used the four free drinks for anything but cocktails. That must be my disconnect.


Anything so long as you are somewhere that accepts them. Even milkshakes some places!

The steak house in flamingo only had a couple drinks under the 25 dollar Mark.


Looks like founders promotion is now is back

Yeah, I'm not much of a boozer any more. My twenties must have taken a toll, because I don't even much like it these days.

Or they haven’t updated their website


In case it hasn't been mentioned.

The four free drinks can be used at a number of restaurants at Caesars not listed on any of the sheets.

If you like beer, the Gordon Ramsay Pub and Grill at Caesars Palace does take them, has a decent tap list, and 35 oz beer mugs. So a 35oz IPA is still one drink. Possibly the best bang for your buck on drink vouchers. Definitely the best for beer.

Does the sportsbook at Horseshoe allow cash withdrawl without a fee if you fund it with a credit card?

Cheers my man
Thanks for the tip



Cheers! I think this place is now our go to place before the hockey games.

I doubt it in my case. My account is in AZ, which to my understanding, is a different company than CET in Vegas. Doesn't matter anyway, because although I have opened an account, I haven't been able to fund it. I can't get anyone on the phone, and people at the CET hotel in AZ don't know anything about the sportsbook.

Did the Caesars Diamond match go through? Were you trying to initiate the match via the Wyndham site/link or the Caesars one posted above? I couldn’t get the Wyndham one to work but the Caesars one went right through. I’m still waiting for the match to actually kick in, though. They said it would take two weeks and it’s only been a few days so hopefully I won’t have any problems.

I ended up creating a help ticket and was told I was not eligible for diamond from wyndham since i matched to get it. i was told i could get it with the wyndham barclay card however, which is about $90/year

Yeah, that’s the Wyndham rewards business earner card. I think that’s the only one that matches now.

Has anyone called FC to find out if the post above is accurate and they match again?
