Diamond in a Day - CET Total Rewards - Page 67 - Las Vegas Lifestyle Forum - Las Vegas Entertainment and Living Information

Consider AMEX Platinum over Founders card for getting Hilton/Hertz/Avis upgrades, esp. if you already have diamond. It might be more expensive out of pocket but you'll also get the $200 airline credit, $200 Uber credits, airport lounges, etc

According to this it looks like they are taking away reward credits for wsop.com, They are increasing rake back though.

Just a data point. I was able to get Caesar's to match my Mlife platinum status and give my wife and I diamond status.

Anybody know if they will let you use the $100 celebration dinner for Buffet of Buffets pass + Bacchanal upgrade if you get both at the same time? Looking at the list of restaurants and the only one I would consider going alone is the BLT for the waguy, so thinking about just getting the buffet pass and stuffing myself full of crepes :/.

Yes, i just stopped by Caesars Buffet and asked. Its $50 for BOB pass and $35 upgrade for Caesars dinner which starts at 3pm, and can throw in a souv cup for $10.

So if dinner at 6pm then can hit breakfast and lunch elsewhere and dinner again before 6pm elsewhere.

Using myself as an example, I use uber a ton during the summer when I'm in vegas and during a couple other months during the year, but certainly not consistently. This $200 "benefit" is probably only worth $60-$75 for me.

I would do mid week and have diamond card for line. I can't imagine a long line if you just go a little early.

Ill second signing up for Amex Platinum if you go to Vegas more than a few times a year. The 4pm late checkout, $60/day food credit, and $100 unique per stay credit alone makes it worthwhile.

I've done the Bacchanal 4 times and never waited more than 10 minutes in line. It's pretty fantastic.

Same - I’ve done multiple holiday weekend brunches there (prime time too) and never had an issue getting through quick on diamond

Ok, So I need to earn 3500 Tier Credits to make Diamond.

What are currently the best options to earn them. I am looking for the least variance possible options rather than the best EV so ideally machines without heavy jackpot weighting.

Thanks in advance

This is pretty decent if you play poker since poker players can get 3500 tier credits with around 70 hours of play at Caesars Poker Room (since they do 34 tc per hour). Should be easy to attain.

Making diamond saves about $700 in resort fees so looking to make it a cost effective way to cut lines.

$1, $2 1 Play
SP STP MG Spin Poker Super Times Pay

1 Slant-top

98.45% payback on JoB is sadly probably your best bet. Id head over to wizard of odds if you need to brush up on strategy, but if you run around expectation you will lose way less than the $700 it will save you in resort fees

head over to http://www.vpfree2.com to locate the best paytables if JoB isn't your game
