CraigComments Off on DFAW #264: Another Loyalty Program Gets Devalued
On episode 264 of the Atlantic City (and casino biz) podcast, Kyle and Craig play “Would You Rather?” with Saturday vs. Sunday trips, then attempt to plan a trip for one of those nights. In our typical fashion we didn’t actually nail down any plans, but since recording we can say that:
We’re going to Atlantic City from Saturday afternoon to Sunday afternoon (October 18-19).
Craig plans to go straight to Borgata on Saturday around 1 and spend a couple hours there.
Before dinner on Saturday, Kyle and Craig will probably wander the Boardwalk and drink beer at various places. Find us and we’ll buy you a beer!
Kyle is staying at Bally’s and Craig is at Caesars, so evening and night gambling will be split between those casinos.

On episode 261 of the Atlantic City podcast, Kyle and Craig play “Would You Rather” with AC trip scheduling, then each give separate reports on very short stops at two different Maryland casinos.
At Horseshoe Baltimore:
Saturday night crowds.
Liquor specials.
Broken soda machines.
The siren song of deceptive slots.
At Maryland Live!:
Comped rooms you can’t actually book.
Dining credit that’s difficult to use.
A nicer casino than Horseshoe.
Also, Kyle’s going to Black Hawk for the meetup but has no actual plans, so good luck finding him!
On episode 260 of the Atlantic City podcast, Kyle and Craig say whether they’d rather go somewhere that has great prices but a dead atmosphere, or hang out where the vibes are off the charts but everything is expensive.
