More info at: https://www.patreon.com/MtMVegas Episode Description: As a reminder you can watch this show as well at: http://www.YouTube.com/milestomemories This week Caesars Rewards took away a perk from some of their higher status members without any notice or explanation.

In other news it was a busy weekend in Las Vegas with cooler temps, high winds and the last minute cancelation of one of the city's biggest music festivals. We also discuss the return of Lotus of Siam, what it is like as a VIP at Fontainebleau, Rio's burgers, saving a historic prospector, how to score $25 concert tickets in Vegas and Criss Angel's "garage sale" where you can buy old tricks!

In a text chat with the infamous VegasDuffy, Michael came up with the title of this episode, and Jenn goes on to give us examples of ‘do as I say, not as I do' from her gambling and travel experiences. Michael and Jenn then explain the importance of limiting your alcohol intake while gambling, how to sequence the way you eat, drink, and gamble correctly, and a quick look at the types of alcohol served on the various airlines and in their lounges. The second half of our conversation comes from a phone call that Michael received where he had to listen to a rant about expiring Virgin Atlantic vouchers. Our hosts then discuss what to be wary of when it comes to expiring vouchers and comps, why you should always use your comps instead of hoarding them, and some examples of when and how to use them. We end with Jen's favorite casino outside the proverbial big two, her choices for this and that, another announcement about Crockfords Las Vegas, and what you can expect in our next episode. Enjoy!

Whiskey Jenn is back in the co-host seat today, and she's got some hot Vegas tips that you really don't want to miss. In this episode, we get into why you should be aiming for Diamond Plus status or higher if you are a regular Vegas-goer, how the tier system works, why Jenn is a proud “don't player,” and even her morning routine! We also discuss AP slots, the importance of tracking your ratings, and where to find the best whiskey in Vegas. If there's one thing to take away from this episode, it's to not wait until the end of the year to get your tier credit multiplier; Caesars Rewards has one coming up in April 2023 that you will be ready to take full advantage of after listening to this episode!Important Post-Recording Show Note: Be sure to check the Las Vegas Market Caesars Rewards 5x Tier Credit Multiplier Dates; we mentioned incorrect dates. We believe that the next Vegas Market 5X Tier Credit Multiplier is April 3 to 9, 2023.Important (Stacking) Note: I mention stacking the daily bonus with tier point multipliers. That's NOT the case in the Vegas Markets (anymore). It is valid in some other markets. Tricky, so please pay attention to terms&conditions of the promotion you "opt in" for.

Eldorado Resorts bought the Tropicana in Atlantic City in 2018, and it became part of Caesars Entertainment when Eldorado bought the gaming giant in 2020. Soon after that, Jacqueline Grace was named general manager of the property. A longtime executive with Caesars, Grace got her start in gaming as a President's Associate in Atlantic City, a prestigious program at Harrah's/Caesars that has produced many top leaders in the industry. She spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros via Zoom from her office in Atlantic City in May. (See video below). GGB: You've been at the Tropicana now for about two years. What has been the most important lesson you've learned during that time? Jacqueline Grace: My first two years at the Tropicana have been dynamic, to say the least. I started shortly after the Eldorado and Caesars merger, and smack in the midst of a pandemic. So there have been lots of complexities in addition to managing an already complex operation. We've been really busy on everything from integrating casino systems to reimagining our food and beverage footprint to driving employee engagement. That said, it has also been really fun. But probably one of the most important things I've learned is about the pride of this Tropicana team. We celebrated our 40-year anniversary back in November and we had 54 day-one team members, and quite a few not far behind them. So what I really learned is how passionate and dedicated this team is to the Tropicana. People often use the word family to describe it. And it really is that. You had the disadvantage of starting during the pandemic. How did you navigate your way out of that? That was indeed a bit challenging to start at a property during the pandemic. The easy part was implementing all of the health and safety protocols that were required at the time, and by no means was that easy work. There was a lot of heavy lifting, but the team did a fantastic job. So I'm particularly proud of that. The more difficult work in my mind was navigating through and managing the morale of the team. So I really focused on two things—trying to get the message out to the team about what you can control what you can't, and then practicing gratitude. And I think that went a long way with helping us ride that wave and then come out on the other side, a stronger and even more resilient team. How important is retail and the dining and entertainment section of the hotel, the Quarter, to the success of the Tropicana? The Quarter is incredibly important to the success of the property. With over 15 restaurants, 20 shops, 15 bars and lounges between the Quarter and the rest of the property, there's so much variety there, and the lion's share of those options are located in the Quarter. It gives us an opportunity to attract a pretty diverse crowd—folks who are just looking to do everything gaming or folks who may not be interested in gaming, but they want to have a good meal, a great drink, or do some shopping. You just announced a lot of new food and beverage outlets and entertainment features. How are they going to fit into your current mix? We are so excited about the new food and beverage concepts. The additions are part of the Caesars Entertainment commitment to invest $400 million into its Atlantic City resorts by 2023. And building on the Tropicana success over the last four decades, we are really thrilled to expand our offerings. And we are offering and introducing an unparalleled eight new concepts throughout the rest of the year. When Eldorado took over Caesars, there were adjustments to the Caesars Rewards program. Some customers have been a little critical of that, so you how do you explain those changes? As we integrated the Tropicana database into the Caesars Rewards network over the last year, it was quite a tremendous undertaking. I am really grateful to our team for doing an incredible job on that. Overall, I'd say these changes are overwhelmingly positive and I hope our customers would agree. Caesars Rewards has been, and still is, the most prominent loyalty program in the country. Here in Atlantic City, we can now offer our guests more ways to earn and more ways to redeem rewards. Not only is the experience the best of what AC has to offer at the Tropicana, Harrah's or Caesars, but also by being a part of Caesars Rewards, we have the opportunity to offer our customers really great gaming and entertainment experiences across the country at some of our other destinations, including Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe and New Orleans.

After a minor hiatus, TravelZork is back! Despite the title of this week's episode, we're not going to be discussing our love lives. Instead, we're diving into how you can work around the dramatic rise in flight prices, why you should never, ever use a debit card or cash to pay for your hotel deposit (credit card is the only way to go!), miles&points twitter “wars,” iconic Vegas related podcasts, and some insights into the fury that was released when Caesars Rewards revoked (“claw-back”) Diamond Status from some tier match people. Our Casinos in History moment for this week is the Steak House at Circus Circus; don't be put off by the mention of Circus Circus; the Steak House is really worth a visit (Michael is even putting it into his birthday itinerary for this year!).

On today's show I go in a different direction talking about a new player in the daily fantasy sports world.  FanDuel just inked broadcaster Pat McAfee to a $120 million dollar deal.  DraftKings is the other big player, but today we learn about SuperDraft.  I recently became a member after doing a lot of research.  Today's guest is Michael Zappia, VP of Direct Sales and Training for SuperDraft.  SuperDraft is the official fantasy partner of Caesars Rewards.   Michael talks about why SuperDraft is going to be a huge entity and how you can make money and have fun!

A 2017 lawsuit between OJ Simpson and The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas was finally settled on March 31 in Clark County District Court. The terms of the settlement were not released. Simpson was suing the casino resort for defamation of character. This was related to an incident at a steakhouse and lounge inside that property. Simpson was banned from The Cosmopolitan for drunk and disorderly behavior. He claimed defamation of character when media source TMZ stated he “was drunk and became disruptive.” The casino’s defense was that Simpson’s character was already tarnished due to his criminal record. A Pair of Six-Figure Jackpots Claimed at Lake Tahoe CasinosCaesars Entertainment owns and operates Harrah’s and Harvey’s Lake Tahoe casino and resorts in Stateline, Nevada. This town is located on the southeastern shore of the lake. Both properties were in the local news lately after paying out a pair of six-figure Mega Progressive Jackpots. James Snyder and his wife Annette won $529,000 playing Three Card Poker at Harvey’s Lake. The couple was visiting from Minnesota. The top prize was won on a royal flush. On April 8, Robert Davis of Waco, Texas won $100,840 playing a Blazing 7’s progressive slot at Harrah’s. Both of the big winners are Caesars Rewards members. In-Play Wagers Drives Popularity of Betting on GolfLegal US sportsbooks are seeing an uptick in the weekly betting handle on professional golf. Betting on the outright winner of the current week’s tournament accounts for a small portion of the funds. A driving force in the increase can be tied to in-play bets. This pertains to the amount of money bet on golf after a tournament has gotten underway. A player’s odds to win the round, tournament or head-to-head matchup are constantly in flux as play wears on. Bettors can follow the action. They can then decide how they want to bet based on the changes in the odds.  East Alabama Search Warrants Turn Up Illegal Gambling MachinesA recent raid on nine different properties in Calhoun County turned up illegal gambling machines. Firearms and narcotics were also seized in the search. This took place on Friday, April 9. The Anniston Police Department released details of the raid to the general public. Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office also to part in the raid. The Piedmont and Jacksonville Police Department played a supporting role. These raids took place while Alabama lawmakers consider various legal gambling expansion legislation. This ranges from a state lottery to land-based casino gambling venues. Any proposal would be subject to a state-wide referendum vote.

Michael is back, and today Steve asks him all about his trip to Encore Boston Harbor and, you guessed it, Las Vegas! We kick off the show by catching up with both Michael and Steve. After hearing about cold weather and avoiding fashion choices that’ll raise eyebrows at PETA, we tuck into the fleshy bits of the show. Michael shares his recent experiences at Encore Boston Harbor as he touches on the casino’s impressive COVID protocols, along with his hotel experiences. We then hear from Michael about his trip to Vegas as he explains the new COVID restrictions at the bar, restaurant, and, of course, the tables. Toward the end of the show, we hear about the MGM Resorts app and its benefits facilitating check-in and eliminating the need to visit the front desk. In between, Michael shares stories about his misadventures, including snowstorms, missing flights, and staying away from country music.

With around 150,000 rooms available in Las Vegas, some of the very best mid-market renovated rooms can be found at Paris Las Vegas. In today’s episode, we cover everything Paris Las Vegas and open the show by looking at the property, exploring its offerings and the unique themes that make it, well, Paris! We talk about its French-English language blend, as well as some of the beautiful architecture and designs which give Paris Las Vegas its special flavor. Contrasting Paris to other venues like Planet Hollywood, we then talk about rooms, what they’re really like inside, and why Michael has only just started recommending that people stay at Paris Las Vegas. Toward the end of the episode, we chat about some of the additional offerings, like swimming pools, spas, and, of course, gorgeous views of a “certain fountain,” which isn’t mentioned in their brochures.

Few properties are as iconic or storied as Caesars Palace Las Vegas. Today we spend nine minutes reviewing the property. While we share the most important points about Caesars, don’t be surprised that we don’t cover everything. The property is massive. After touching on Caesars illustrious history, host @LasVegasUK expresses his appreciation for Caesars and how it serves as an ideal entry point into the world of Vegas. From their classic restaurant staples, such as the Old Homestead Steakhouse, to its pampering spa, we highlight what we love most about Caesars. Steve contrasts the Caesars experience of luxury with other properties before exploring more of its stand-out features. Near the end of the episode, we reflect on moments from the rich history of Caesars Palace. But Vegas is blessed with many glamorous institutions.

In this episode, we introduce our new co-host, the (other) UK half of ZorkCast, Steve. Many of you might follow some of his banter as LasVegasUK on Twitter. In this episode, we’re going to jump into one of the most frequently asked questions in Vegas and the casino loyalty world, and a topic that will most likely deserve a few additional episodes to get into the nuances. We compare the MGM M life loyalty program versus Caesars Rewards loyalty programs. We discuss the status level and tier benefits of both programs, as well as whether they charge resort fees or waive them. We also talk about the merits and disadvantages of unlimited access and the metrics that casino loyalty programs use for attracting new customers. We dive into the geographies of both programs, how many properties you can stay at, and where they are, as well as whether or not you can transfer your credits and match your status between M life and Caesars Rewards in the US and the UK. Finally, we chat a little about our next episode. We’d love to hear your opinions about this week’s topic, so please let us know your thoughts on MGM M life and Caesars Rewards programs (and other topics).

Welcome back to another episode of ZorkCast. Today on the show we will be looking at a Caesars Rewards promotion. We are going to dig deeper into the “My Leaderboard” competition of Caesars Rewards program and why it can be seen as an extremely non-compelling competition. We discuss in detail exactly what the point system looks like, how prizes are awarded, and what those prizes are. As you will come to see, the awards for this particular competition are not very exciting, so the biggest question we ask is, “What are we missing here?” Stay tuned as we unpack what went wrong, and how members could potentially be better awarded in this all seemingly, uninspiring competition!Key Points From This Episode:• Total Rewards is now Caesars Rewards.• Why the My Leaderboard is non-compelling competition.• How the prize awards system actually works.• Is this not the most uninspiring competition?• Better prize ideas for the My Leaderboard competition.Terms and Conditions of Caesars Leaderboard Caesars Leaderboard CompetitionZorkCast FaceBook Group- JOIN TODAY!

In this episode of the soon to be award winning podcast, I chat with Dave from Miles Talk about his experience at Atlantis, which he booked through Caesars. The free Atlantis stay that is granted through having Platinum or Diamond status with Caesars Rewards is a benefit that is often promoted as valuable across the points and miles blogosphere. Yet, until I saw Dave's detailed article, I had never heard of anyone actually taking advantage of it. In our discussion, Dave helps establish expectations for those considering taking the journey down to Atlantis on Caesars' dime. We cover room options, resort fees, food options, the casino experience, and more. To read and see more about Dave's trip, here is the post that inspired the episode: Free Atlantis Stay via Total Rewards Diamond: What to Expect with Room Fees, Food Costs, and More For more from TFB, check out TravelFanboy.com
