Nah, I'll get the points I need during the stay with play/restaurants and such.

I was in vegas for a week in june and stayed at Flamingo(Paid about 100 per night). I didn't play any table games or slot at CET. I'm planning to go back to vegas in July and I had weekdays comp room at Flamingo and Rio last week but I checked again today and they are gone. Anyone knows why?

Offers/rates fluctuate all of the time
If you see comped rooms and you might use them just boom them
They can always be cancelled

That's incredible. I never knew this! It's clearly not all gaming floor bars, as last fall I had to pay for a beer at a Flamingo bar.

edit: Looking at a floorplan that bar I paid at might be Bugsy's Bar. The one by the Mexican place mentioned above is Garden Bar?

I'm an idiot with this stuff....after you get the Hilton card, how exactly do you get the Wyndham Diamond? Is that on-line or do you have to go stay at a Wyndham property?

You don't have to even wait on the card to get the match. I just took a screenshot of my Gold Status on the Hilton Website and uploaded it to Wyndham.

Did you ask to get it free? They aren't going to volunteer it.

I suspect that the way to ID which bars do it is to just go to each one and ask. That Bally's has TWO of them really boggles my mind. I completely forgot about this as I was losing my ass in WSOP events, or I would have asked at the Rio bars.

Damn. Anyone know if you can swing this at any of the PH bars? I'll be asking regardless.

Is CET still matching MGM gold to diamond? Headed in 7/11 to play a side event at the rio.

Is there a separate wsop registration line for diamond?

Thanks for this. It looks like it worked.

However, it looks like the Wyndham Diamond expires in 90 days. Will the Caesars Diamond status stop at that time as well? Is the Caesars Diamond status locked in no matter what until January 31, 2020?

How long did it take for CET to match your Diamond status? I matched Wyndham to my credit card and it only took two days. Then I entered Wyndham number in total rewards website to match the status and it's been almost a week already.

I went to Harrahs AC and show them Borgata Gold , they issued the Diamond card right away but it took about 3 weeks online to show my status changed to Diamond.

Caesars Diamond will last until February. During June, do it in reverse order and get Wyndham Diamond using Caesars. Then in February, use Wyndham Diamond to get Caesars and you should be able to get two years out of this.

No problem! Glad it worked for you. Seems way easier and cheaper than a lot of the options suggested in this thread.

Best suggestion for using my $100 celebration dinner? It will be me and my girlfriend, and we like/eat everything.
