If you're platinum they are only 28,700 (I think they are the same ones)

Possibly better value is $100 visa gift card at Harrah's Cherokee only for 15,100.

I've heard they will reimburse travel costs (possibly above a certain tier level), is this accurate? Also, what about paying for rooms?

Most of that stuff should be in your offers sections. I doubt they reimburse travel expenses for anyone but the biggest whales.

I've gotten a couple free seats on their junkets, weeks worth of comped rooms, some tourney entries, and lots of random stuff like tickets and whatnot.

not familiar enough with harrah's rewards. can you convert these points to $600 in slot play? if possible, that seems like the best way to use these points. like if you were gonna spend 60,000pts on a tv at their store, you could instead turn $600 into like $580 on average running it through the slots, then buy the tv for $320 on amazon and still have an extra $260 than if you just got it at their store.

Yeah, I was more referring to using them with the passport program. I'm at diamond but should be at 7s next year, and will just save them all for flights if I can do that.

You can convert them at .50, so its not very good.

I think this is the first time...and if I had to guess, they probably won't run it again. My g/f and I definitely spent way less than $1200 total in their properties to get these comps.

its hard for me to think of $600 worth of points as $600 especially if i cant convert them to cash to almost the full value through slot play. i rarely eat at the casino. i almost never stay at the hotel. and never buy anything in gift shops.

Just because you never do does not mean that you can't. I never eat at a harrahs either but there are times when I am at a harrah's and we leave to eat somewhere else. Instead of leaving we will just eat there which means we are saving the money that we would have spent.

Some properties allow you to use your points for slot play which you could then throw through vp and come close or get lucky and bink a royal. Either way I am very happy with the points that we received.

i understand that i can but im most likely not going to. so $600 in points isnt going to be worth as much to me as it would for other people.
