There are two types of rewards:

- The base perks for each level are not tied specifically to ADT. For example, access to the diamond lounge, the annual dinner, not paying a resort fee, etc. Further, the earning of base credits is not specifically tied to ADT, it is tied to the earning rules for the game (which have some correlation with ADT but that's not terribly important for now).

- Individualized comps beyond the base perks of TR are all about your ADT. They are looking at all of your play (slot/table/poker/etc.) over your last Y trips and assigning you a daily value (we are going to make $X a day on your gaming/whatever). This drives the amount they are willing to comp beyond your Total Rewards Credit Balance or beyond your base tier benefits whenn you look on the website for room prices/free shows/food comps/slot freeplay/etc.

For someone like you who doesn't play slots or tables, your ADT is not going to be that high. They expect to win some from your rake, but it's not going to get you free rooms at Caesar's or free tickets to Elton John.

Ok i understand what your saying but that didn't answer most of my questions how long is the diamond status good for is it one calendar year or?? Also i can use the lounge the food and gym/spas as often as i want correct?

Status is good for the remainder of the calendar year that you achieve it plus the entire following calendar year and then the full month of January of the year afterwards. Hit it anytime in 2017 and your status expires Jan 31st 2019!

Unlimited access to Diamond lounge, gyms, and spas. If you abuse any benefit, Caesars can revoke your Diamond status or ban you from their properties. Usually if they see that you are only taking and won't be giving them any play ever in the future, they will find a reason to just ban you from their properties and thus making your status useless without actually revoking it. Just don't be a jerk, tip decently, and give a bit of play here and there, and you'll be okay.

thanks ducks for detailing that out i understand now what to do.

Does anyone have a good handle on how your ADT at non-Vegas properties affects your ADT/offers in Vegas?

I used to do a good deal of VP play in Baltimore/AC and got lots of free room offers (mostly through the online calendar) in Vegas. I used these free rooms during the WSOP, where I mostly played tournaments and other poker games. This completely dried up my room offers in Vegas, but I still get very good offers in AC.

If I keep playing VP in AC, will I eventually get more offers in Vegas, or are these permanently gone unless I actually put a lot of VP/table games play in Vegas?

im just poker... paid 18k+ in rake last year, i get pretty good offers, comp airfare, comp cruise thru ncl, rooms almost all the time (new years eve I couldnt get comped) My ADT is infinite, never trigger a trip but they make 18k off of me a year... ok i did go to the diamond club once. unless picking up a withdrawal at the cage triggers a trip?

You never gave a dealer your Total Rewards card?

he plays online

I'm sure booking a comped room triggers a trip.

Yeah

Aren't the cruise and airfare standard diamond perks? Those are not related to ADT.

No. Seven Star gets those.

does booking a free show from you diamond free shows per month trigger a trip?

I had to book a room to get the free cruise voucher, and I did book a room to get like 40 free slot play like 2 or 3 times, havent stayed in a comped room yet, lol.

I am going to atlantic city in may, and will probably play live poker when i am there, would i be better not using or using my card?

Yes. Every time you collect a comp it triggers a trip. The comp is anything from room, ticket, slot play, lounge, etc.

If your reservation has your TR number attached (to get free or even discounted rate), you should use your card for all play, since you're already on the grid. Every earned point helps.

If you're never using the comped rooms why are you concerned with whether or not you trigger a trip? The cruise etc is an automatic perk, not something that is dependent on your play, right?

You weren't at Ceasers yesterday were you?

I wish. Stuck in Dallas for the moment. Why do you ask?

I played with a mark on monday and had Dallas cowboys gear on and i thought just maybe you know a small world could of been you but wasn't lol.

gotcha. I can't remember the last time I played in Caesers. I've never seen their new room for sure. Pretty much always in Bellagio when I'm there.

Ahh shoot check out Ceasers next time no promos 2 dolla an hour and 34 Tier credits per hour I am shooting for Diamond this year as fast and safe as i can. I am already at 700 but i work a full time job. So i am hoping by september to have it. Also your 2 dollars an hour can be turned into free play on slots at a 50 percent reduction meaning 2.00 is worth 1 dollar but i will still take +ev any day of the week.

If you are going to turn your comps into free play (which doesn't seem like the greatest use to me, but maybe if you're local you never spend at a CET casino), at least wait until you are Diamond to so, as the conversion rate is better for Diamonds.

Caesars has a good room if you want to play 1/2, but that's about it.

easier to do it online, i work 30 hours a week, and only play plo8 online, (plo8 only runs about 10 horus a day), and I can make diamond in like 5 months. I made aspiration 1 just from online poker last year.

So after turning $2 in comps to $1 in free slot play, can you use that in VP machines. If it's just slots, what's the EV of that free slot play after you run it through?

You don't have to go to Caesars to get 34 tc/hr, 2/3 at Harrah's and Rio also pay that.

Rio runs every day
