The Boyd formula is the worst for TC. First, new players get no RC until they reach 750 TC. Second, the calculations on Vp are a mystery. Low variance Vp takes $100+ coin to move TC and no one knows the threshold. Vp players have abandoned the Orleans and Gold Coast. Three years ago the YAH promotion was very strong and the Orleans was very busy for a Wednesday, now it’s just a trickle. Sadly, Boyd has forgot its demographics (which was meat and potatoes players) in favor of softball, bowling, basketball tournament groups that will pay a higher rate for a weekend room and pay $10 for midnight egg specials. I guess they had to play for the Stardust/Echelon debacle (how to turn $2 Billion into $300 million). Truly the corporate bean counters took over. Sam B would shaking his head in disgust.
