In 2012, you needed 100,000 base tier credits to make Seven Stars (no bonus tiers).

In 2013, you needed 50,000 base tier credits to make Seven Stars (and you would get 100,000 bonus tiers to make up for the rest, if played optimally.)

That makes 150,000 base tiers.

Each tier credit represents $10 in coin-in at VP.

That means I've put in $1.5 million in coin-in.

Divide $1.5 million by $25 per hand (since I play the $5 machines almost exclusively), and you get 60,000 hands played.

There you go. I also didn't earn all of my tier credits on VP, but I won't bother to factor that in.
Dan, you might think you can get your BS by the others here--including Spock, who is lurking on this thread as we speak with burning ears, but he will not humiliate you because I'm here--but you'll never get it by the common sense experts.

So you claim to have just "jumped into" video poker on the $5 machines....while you're also someone who's on record as griping vehemently at Caesars for not giving you free Gatorade or some other crazy complaint. Then you spend hour after hour moaning and groaning about cutbacks and cruise nonsense, that someone who is a beginner at vp would have no problem spending his own money on. And then you expect anyone would believe you suddenly stopped playing as soon as you got your special card? With the overwhelming amount of cruise details you espouse about saving a penny here and a nickel there when you're not criticizing them? Come on, man!

You're as easy to see through as Dancer and his divorce and subsequent odd behavior that could only result from low remaining assets. People who play $5 limits "almost exclusively" never gripe about a dollar here and a dollar there. I don't expect to see you say how many hands you think you've REALLY played. But at least if you're gonna try and make it look like you don't play much and take huge baths at Harrahs in doing so, you need to start controlling what you say in other threads & posts.
