But I had another reason for playing it. I wanted to create a sucker's profile and see what they send me in the mail. This is an old AP trick that has worked well in the past when you are a new sign up. The theoretical loss is just $120 on 10K in action. Sometimes, the freeplay through the mail can well out run that. However, this trick has been worn out over the years and a lot of casinos are hip to it. We'll see what happens.
Since you appear to be a rookie when it comes to real casinos in Nevada, here's a teachable moment for you.
It doesn't take lots of play on ANY machines in the Aquarius for the marketing computers to generate decent offers. And, the nonsense about "theoretical loss" or even actual loss has no bearing on what you get, just as how much you actually win doesn't affect their offers. I just stopped there on our way back from Peppermill for an overnight break yesterday. I played maybe 30 minutes, won $705, and I even forgot to run my $100 free play thru. I'm ahead of the place heavily since they took over from the Flamingo/Hilton. And the offers never end.
Next time go to Avi. That's more your speed. You seem to like getting scalped at out-of-the-way Indian casinos.
