Has anyone in the Northeast received one of those Caesars Rewards Air offers?

I got one for supposedly $124 (incl "admin" fees) for:

- RT chartered flight from Boston to AC
- ground transportation to/from hotel
- 3 nights at either Harrah's or Trop

Doesn't mention if resort fees are waived - is for early Oct and mid-Nov

I live in FL now but I received one via email the other day. Same offer as yours but this was from Palm Beach International Airport to AC.

I am curious how it works. It would be annoying if they put you on a flight that wasn't direct to AC.

I have clicked the link from my marketing emails on these topics. Since I live around Philly, mine are not to AC but rather the gulf region or Laughlin, NV.

The airport they choose is Allentown (!) for me, and a ultra low priced carrier, so you're on the hook for any checked bags, and carryon items bigger than the personal item.

Keep in mind, the only carrier into ACY airport is Spirit, so you're likely on the hook for the same additional fees, should they apply to you.

Mine said it would either be Sun Country Airlines or some special charter plane depending on how many sign up. It did say there would be no baggage fees, and I'm only taking a carry-on anyway.

The Sun Country flights are charters, not regular Sun Country flights.

I have not taken one to AC, but BWI-IFP (Laughlin) was great. First drink was free, the whole plane was gamblers, and you got off the plane, got on a bus, and got ferried to the hotel. They had an organized key pickup and your bags were delivered to your room straight from the plane. On departure they grabbed bags from your room and all you needed to do was make it onto the bus to the airport.

Yeah, a buddy of mine went to Laughlin from the Philly area many times. I don't know the specifics but if he did it, it was a decent deal, and I recall he enjoyed the trips

Yes, I've done the Sun Country Caesars packages. Twice to Tunica, once to AC. Of course the deals are for times when the casinos are empty.

But the AC trip was about $300 for 3 rooms, 5 ppl, 3 nights, all travel, no resort fees. Can't stay home for that kind of deal. We stayed at Hareahs and walked to Borgata for the buffet and poker.

Was quite annoying that the poker cage was closed the entire time I was there Wed-Fri, though I'm used to that nonsense playing at Encore Boston Harbor

1/2 and 1/3 games v tight Wed/Thu, but Fri I felt like I was transported back to 2006 with people stacking off with TPNK on the flop, nonsensical bets, etc.

Guess I should've asked for a different tower (Waterfront) because while comfortable, the bed/room was beaten down quite badly/lots of staining/etc.

Never had any issues in waterfront, was just renovated in the last year or so.

Anyone know if Harrahs still does free rooms for 4 hours of play?

I believe so. Based on availability. Although I am about 50% sure.

This place sucks too. Eden bar barely open. Poner doesnt go 24/7 ... played poker and video poker , tried to drive out , no ***** parking attendants , machine wont take 2 credit and 1 debit card...multiple cars cant get out...nobody answers calls....I was about to 911 or vandalize the ***** parking arm to get out before I found an arm briefly up that closed behind me. Even the cash lane people were stuck. Total sht.

that paying for parking is garbage. I've had more issues in AC at oceans and Harrahs waiting 10 - 15 minutes behind a line of cars. I'm not sure what the issue is.

I stay here sometimes when I go to AC because it's relatively cheap - but I don't know how they are gonna stay in business.

Hello! I am planning to go to AC for couple of days and would like your opinion about this property. I am interested to play mainly 1/2 and I see from poker atlas that they have 10 poker tables. Can you tell me are the games good? If you have any suggestions or considerations please share.

Harrah's spreads $1/2 and $1/3. They are not quite interchangeable and that can be table-dependent but the fact is the $1/3 game has more money on the table usually and as the biggest game in the room (maybe they spread $2/5 but I haven't seen it) it can attract players who would normally play higher which changes the game dynamics a lot if you're at a table with three of them. $1/2 is a lot more likely to have passive players. My game translates better to their $1/2 but I usually play the $1/3 for the higher tier credits the game provides.

There are only three places to play in AC. Other than Harrah's there's the Tropicana and of course the Borgata.

The Trop has the benefit of being on the boardwalk, and also spreads $1/2 but not $1/3 so that's the only game there. The games are pretty interchangeable from Harrah's $1/2. They're also a CET property.

I prefer to play at Harrah's because I am a Caesar's Diamond and have perks that I can take advantage of and want to keep so the $1/3 works for me (they also have a $10/20 OE game on Mondays that draws me in). I also like their rooms better when the boardwalk is not a consideration for my wife and kid.

The Borgata is off the boardwalk and has the advantage of many more tables going but no lower than $1/3. But they're open 24/7 unlike the Caesar's properties and you have better game selection - right now there's 14 $1/3 games there, nearly double the tables at both of the other rooms combined so it's easier to table change into a softer game.

I haven't played there in ages because I am licensed through them for my job (I do not work there but they won't let me play under these circumstances) but other than comps and perks and customer service issues changing for the worse as MGM has asserted control of the casino/room, I don't think the games have changed very much. Others may disagree and they may know better than me.

I don't think the play at any of these rooms is substantially different so it really depends on whether you consider $1/3 a barrier or not and the other things about the rooms (location, amenities, etc.). Good luck and post a tour report when you go, I love reading those!

Anyone know how many tier credits per hour for 1/2? Any different for 1/3 or 2/5? 10/20 or 20/40 limit games that run?

3-6 LIMIT 17TC $1.00/hr
1-2NL 17TC $1.00/hr
1-3 NL 26TC $1.50/hr
2-5NL 34 TC $2.00/hr
10-20 Mix 34 TC $2.00/hr
20-40 Stud 34 TC $2.00/hr
2-5 PLO 34 TC $2.00/hr

Damn I thought it was 28 or 34 for 1/2

It's 34 TC for all games in Vegas at Caesar's, maybe that's what you were thinking about ...

I think you even got 34 TC for 1/2NL before they changed it to 1/3NL

Yeah or was just hoping it was the same. There is a 10x tier credit multiplier week at the end of August. I'm 11,300 to your credits away from Diamond, it's always hoping I would be able to bridge a large part of the gap in that week but 17 tier credits makes it a lot harder. Hopefully 1/3 runs, and I will play the 10:20 mixed when it runs on that Monday.

10x isnt for poker

Nor good VP since iir the good EV machines are 25:1 or 50:1. Otoh, these limitations are not new.

Damn, thanks for the heads up

I thought some posters here reported that poker did count even tho it did say no poker in the fine print. Somebody correct me if am I wrong.

Along the same lines, my August 10x offer says Vegas again this year, but it should still work for AC as well, right?

Somebody told me that everything counts as long as you have some qualifying activity (i.e. play a bit of slots with a bunch of poker)
