What a deal.

The Macy's gift card deals at Caesars weren't good enough? Had he played at the Caesars promotion he would have Macy's cards and rooms for the WSOP.
Alan, you keep ignoring the point made by Boz that the Zappos cards could have been earned incidentally while working some play with a different primary benefit (cash back,mailers, free play, tier level, etc.). If this is the case, then the Zappos gift card worth is gravy.
It's solid knowledge that anyone who goes into a play where they've created a "+EV" play out of it, will always use the full expected value of a gift card promotion as a part of the calculation to play. We've even seen info from other ap's here which tout the Cosmo's gift card promos in the past as AP-gems. Yet only after the tough questions pop up does the agenda change to "no AP uses the full value in their play theories".

Sorry guys, the dam broke long ago....
Solid knowledge, huh? Why would anyone calculate in the full value when they plan on selling for half price? What kind of stupid shit is that? Just more Robocchio bullshit.
