More on points and casinos
I wrote today about the Seminole casinos rolling out an expanded points rewards system, and it brings the question about other South Florida casinos.
Mardi Gras declined to participate, and I'm still trying to hear from Gulfstream.
But the Isle spelled out how it gives out points this way:
According to Linda Powers, Senior Director of Marketing for the isle, slots players earn a point for every $10 of coin in.
For video poker players, a point is equivalent to $20 of coin in. For racetrack players, a point is equivalent to $10 wagered. A patron earns 25 points for every hour of tracked poker play.
So that brings us to what an Isle point will get you (still working on that one, any players out there willing to help?) And as far as I know, the Isle is the only place that offers points for poker and horse racing.
Points may be redeemed for goods and services throughout the casino. During select dates, players may redeem their points for IslePlay."
