how much have you paid in rake to them?

[Daliman]

Sweet, just be careful at the BJ tables there, I dropped 2300 in 5 minutes last week.

that xxxxxx xxxxxxx is a very lucky person to know a degenerate gambler like you.

How many points did that cost you, btw?

P.S. If you count cards, they have a great DD game there, only-.19 off top for BS.

I don't want to talk about it. 12-15k/month(BRB)?

Yea, last time I went I think i played the $50/hand DD game, I didn't count (cause i always get bored and lose track). Festo al Lago starts the 8th, so hopefully that will keep me away from the paigow poker table. They also had a $1 9/6 JoB 10play machine, so I will probably be on there too.

[citanul]

jeez, i for some reason am not even a VIP yet. probably because i never called them to authenticate my acct yet. or something.

but when i look at the website, i don't see anything like the thing they're giving you. did they just offer this to you out of the blue, or what?

citanul

[chisness]

citanul, if you go to the VIP section then the royal flush section, they show that they have prizes for 25k, 50k (i think), and 100k for a tv, lcd monitor, and then the vegas trip for 100k

[WebGuySteve]

wow, bellagio huh? I thought they would put you up in Casino Royale or downtown or something. Very cool. Now I have something to work for. Watch for me at the tables boys, only 70K points to go!

[Scuba Chuck]

Nick, care to respond to the quality of the other two major "gifts" from Empire?

Specifically the TV at 25,000 pts, and the LCD screen at 50,000 pts. Are these anything special?

I think i remember a post a while back from microbob maybe. I think he said the TV was good quality.

Ugh, $50 a hand on VP is BIG swingy game. GL tho.

Rap and Usher can help ya with yer paigow strategy.

[AbelM]

They just order one from a webshop near you in the range of $400. If you want you can also get the cash.

I guess in america it's worth a nice television or screen, but here in europe you can't get anything decent for it:(

Those turkeys said they couldn't find anyone to ship the TV to Estonia for a reasonable price. Reasonable price? I pay a bajillion in rake and they're talking about shipping costs?

Seemed like I had no choice but to settle for 300 added to my account I think it was.

I wonder, if I get to 100000 points will they tell me that they can't find anyone to ship ME to vegas for a "reasonable price".

Turkeys!

[SCfuji]

the tv that myself and microbob have gotten ( http://www.jr.com/JRProductPage.process?Product_Id=3978055&JRSource= google.datafeed.SON+KV27FS120)

That looks like a mighty fine TV. Makes me even more pissed off that they wouldn't ship it here, anything electronic is soo expensive here. I'll bet that TV would cost 1000 or so here, probably more.

Scuba.

I was just told by Empire that they were having troubles ordering the television they wanted to my house so they offered me 400 usd instead, if that answers your question.


edit: Looks like I am about the fifth person to post this /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[Sabrazack]

I looked around empire but couldnt find anywhere where it said how many points i have. Where do i get this info?

In the client window click option -> VIP account. It will open an internet page with the information.

[pergesu]

I was at like 1500 VIP points or so when one day I got an email that said, "Dude, perg, we upped your [censored] to 5000 and now you're VIP!!!" Not sure what I'm supposed to do now. "...holla?"

Hahahahaha.

the TV is twice as expensive as the LCD

[fnord_too]

I probably wont even make it to the royal flush club until November. Let us know what the room is like. I had got a suite at Foxwoods last year, and it was damn sweet. (Of course, I was paying for it, but it was so much nicer than any other hotel room I have been in, and I had the second bedroom for my wifes nieces who were there for baby sitting purposes.)

[LotsOfOuts69]

That LCD monitor is the same one I have. I have 2 of them, except they are 19 inches. They are pretty damn sweet considering the fact that the price was so reasonable. You can watch TV and movies on them no problem cause the refresh time is good.
