There's no need to accept. You just get the coupon at a rewards desk or kiosk on that day, and can use it anywhere.

i seriously can't wait until these ma casinos open up and these douche bags are scrambling to get people in the doors because half of their player base told them to pound sand. this is ridiculous

You aren't getting much of anything unless you play the slots or TGs once in a while

I see a lot of urban dressed players order Hennessy when playing.

That is the craziest thing I have heard in awhile. What is the difference between Hennessy or Glenlivet? Price wise I mean. Wow. Hopefully they just have a house brandy or something. But no Henny is ridic imo.

I don't care about paying 49 at Two Trees if it's gonna be 49 but it's actually 70 and if you are charging that then give us 3 nights wtf???

But, yes, this is silly.
(And thanks for mentioning the Glenlivet. They'll probably eliminate that next.)

this is the **** im talking about. its like they give you rewards when you dont play, then when you start playing more they feel like youre addicted and they dont have to give you anything to keep you coming back. it sucks that MS is even worse, they dont give you anything.

Because they're not rewards, they're incentives.

they give you those "rewards" to get you to come back if you do and you don't play up to the standards of which you were once ranked at those "rewards" will be removed.

i hope someone from FW reads this thread and sees all the complaints. they must not or they don't care because even after all the complaining, the rewards continue to get worse for us.

it appears upon looking at my september offers, they dropped me from 10 points a week, to a 10 food voucher on tuesdays, and 5 points on wednesdays, then 3 times a week a $5 match play. i guess some genius came up with the idea of spreading the rewards s thin as possible and have them be on different days of the week causing you to come over and over to get the same amount of rewards. well **** you guys. is there anyone us players can write to about the rewards program?

well throughout the beginning part of the year i was pretty strapped for cash but still wanted to play a bit so i had a free room at foxwoods that i used maybe 3 times a month and went to MS and played 1/1. did this for about 5 months. started to play at FW again, no rooms.

It depends on the level of play though. They'll offer whatever incentive they feel is appropriate given your play.

Quote:

Well that'll do it. For months you used free rooms and gave no action. Of course they took them away from you.

edit: give it time. The offers right now are based on activity somewhere around the April-June timeframe.

ohhh, i thought the offers were for the previous month. it just seems odd, whenever i take a poker hiatus i get rooms, then i start playing again and lose them. maybe its because it is on a 4 month backlog.

but im still not happy about the whole points/matchplay fiasco (and although i only used the match play only one time, because i do not play TG, i did walk up to BJ put down my $25 and match play card and proceed to pull and ace and a king for a $75 net. maybe thats why they changed my match play. they said this poker goon took us for 3:1 on 48:52 and they are mad at me =P)

Anyone play in the 10/20 LHE game on a regular basis? What is the average buy in? How does it usually play? I play 4/8 and am thinking about moving up if the game runs, so any info would be helpful. Thanks, Joe

MS regs get 10 comp rooms a month with a second room for same night at $29, $10 daily food coupon, $50 monthly restaurant coupon, $3/hourly comp ($2 for 1/2), free gas twice per month, along with several free bets and additional tickets to Connecticut Sun games and shows. Aside from that MS doesn't give you a damn thing.

Giving all that to 6 people every month really must suck for them.

It's the Foxwoods 3-4+/wk NL regs who lose since MS makes it very easy to reach this tier.

My point was that the posters comments regarding MS rewards program were about as inaccurate as they could be.
