Foxwoods Resort·Casino (Mashantucket, CT) -- FAQ in OP, updated 2021.09.16 - Page 857 - Venues & Communities -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

I feel like they have been kind of bipolar with my offers. I would get $75-100 in FSP a couple times a week, free shows, and two rooms per week any Sun-Sat. IMO I keep my action consistent and it goes down to 20-60 FPS and Sun-Thurs two rooms per week GC and TT.

No free rooms for July. TT for August, Sunday to Thursday, but for some reason was unable to get Monday, August 14 (Monday Madness).

When did you try to book 8/14? My wife was able to book that date but we booked the day we got the offer.

Same here. You can't wait too long otherwise the good days/hotels will be gone. Now with Peter Pan buses ending their runs to Foxwoods on Saturday I just have to find an alternate way to get down there for the 14th.

Thank you but I'm in central MA. I believe other smaller companies are picking up the open runs too. Coach in NH just announced their adding runs. It'll just be a matter of time (hopefully shorter rather than longer) before its all worked out. I think this kind of caught Foxwoods off guard but shame on them for allowing PP to walk.

Relatively early.

Also, this may not be relevant but the owners of Peter Pan, the Picknelly family, have links to MGM Springfield and much of the rest of downtown Springfield. They may not have been offering anything reasonable to FW.

Heard somewhere that locals are being excluded from room offers and they are based your zip code ?

that would make sense but I doubt it. I've had room offers sparingly over the years. But i also never has needed one being I'm twenty minutes down the road next town over.

I wouldn't say locals are excluded from room offers but your zip code absolutely has a bearing on what you get for offers. If player A and Player B both give the casino the same exact amount of action and player A lives 10 miles form the casino and player B lives 125 miles away player B will get better offers than player A. The bottom line is that it's tougher for a local to get offers than it is for someone who lives a few hours away. So while your zip code doesn't exclude you from receiving offers its tougher for people living nearby.

I haven't checked out this thread in awhile because I haven't been to Foxwoods in about 2 years but I continually have received free rooms, two nights a week, for Mon-Thurs at the Tower, Cedar, or Two Trees every month since then. I haven't used them once. When I did play it was primarily poker. Maybe 10 hours a month (definitely none some months). I played BJ or craps maybe 3-4 times a year for a couple hours, usually just the $10/15 tables. Just thought I'd post to add more confusion to how perks are given.

To further add to the confusion, my finance asked an employee at the Dream Rewards booth how the offers are determined and he told us that it's based on the last 3 month of play and activities. That seems like it would make sense except for the people who hadn't been there in over a year.

June I got rooms for 2 tree & fox tower, then july nothing. August is only 2 trees, and now I just got rooms for September and its now 2tree, great cedar & fox tower and I play about the same amount of hours each month. However I do live about 65+ miles away but still in C.T.

Just to add more confusion to this.

I think someone in the rewards program loves reading this thread and trolling us.

Seems like it for sure, but whatever not much you can do but hope you get on the lucky side of the madness that is the foxwoods rewards system.

Just got here today and parked near the bingo room. When I came out of the elevator I noticed it no longer says Gas Monkey Bar coming soon anymore. Did something fall through or did Richard Rawlings change his mind when he came a few weeks ago? It's been under construction for a long time.

Very poor location, being on the dead side of the casino. Has it been totally vacant since Stadium closed many years ago or was something there in the interim?
