Both Agua Caliente and Palm Springs Spa use the same Paradise Rewards Club. Database should show: Slots $1 coin-in earns 3 points. For video poker $2 coin-in earns 3 points, with 1000 points=$1 in comps. (NOTE: Isn't that .0015 comp rate?) Platinum status is 150000 points earned in 6 months. Black status is 375000 points in 6 months. Red status is 1500000 points in 6 months (comparable to Harrahs' Seven Stars tier). Players can choose that points be converted to free play instead of used for food, retail, etc.. There is no cash back. Points are redeemable for 13 months. Account is deactivated if no activity within that time. Paradise Club 2009 Update-You must use up all points in your account before hosts will comp anything (similar to Harahs) unless you are at Red or Black Level (over $250K coin-in during any six months). Agua Caliente has 25c-50c-$1 (5 Play) Tower Poker with FPDW (on bottom line) scattered throughout the casino. 25c 7/5/60 SA PROG (RF and 4A) . New sign-ups get a nicely wrapped coffee "sampler" and a gourmet chocolate bar. Plentiful $1 9/6 Jacks near buffet. There is also 9/6 Jacks 3-5-10 play in the High Limit (Primrose) Room. Discretionary comps (not using your earned $$) easily awarded after paging a host and getting an "ambassador". 25c 8/5 BP Game Makers. Agua Caliente in Racho Mirage has a set of $1 9/6 Jacks Progressives. They also have 9/6 Jacks on $1/$/$ 3/5/10 plays in high-limit - but all the other video poker on those machines is real junk. I didn't spend a lot of time evaluating their players card system, but comp dollars seemed to accrue real fast even on 9/6. Agua Caliente also has a verison of Bonus Deuces that pays like 98.8%. Agua Caliente/Spa Casino: Agua Caliente is technically in Rancho Mirage, and the Spa Casino is in Palm Springs proper. Both of these casinos share the same player's club, called Club Paradise. $1 played earns 1 point; 1000 points is good for $1 towards meals and dining discounts and mostly logo merchandise at both casinos. I have nothing of note for Agua Caliente in terms of playable VP, but the Spa had some good stuff. The lone Multi-Strike on the main casino floor that's mentioned in the database with full-pay 9/6 JOB also has full-pay 9/5 Super Double Bonus which should be even better ($1 denom only; 25,50 cent are short-pay). There is a circular bar in the center of the casino that has about 5 bartop Multi-Strikes with 9/6 JOBs and NSU Deuces at the $1 denom only. Be careful, one of these bartops pays only $1250 instead of $4000 on 5-coin royal in the 9/6 JOB game (according to the displayed paytable). The 4 $1 8/5 Bonus prog. machines mentioned in the database are not in the high-limit room; they are on the main casino floor. Same goes for the machines with 9/6 JOB flattop and 8/5 Aces$. These flattops also have 9/6 Bonus Deluxe, 9/4 Bonus Deuces Wild (99.45%), and 9/5 Triple Bonus Plus (99.8%). I don't know whether you should report this or not, but there was some semi-stuff at Agua Caliente in late June 2004, my last trip out there. What I found (I didn't check DW or JW game paytables since I don't play DW or JW games because I don't care for the volatility or new strategy to deal with) was the following (and I didn't count how many machines of each game there were): 1). $0.25 8/5 BP in some GameMaker machines; 2). $0.25 8/5 JB Progressives (in GameKing MG machines -- with separate RF Jackpots on each machine); 3). $0.25 7/5 SA with linked separate Progressive Jackpots for 4 Aces and RF; 4). $0.25 7/5 JB 8-coin Progressives (on banks of Pot O' Gold machines); and 5). $1 7/5 JB Progressives in the high-limit area. They do offer .10% comps and sometimes I get FreePlay coupons from them (most recently $5 for December and $5 for January). They (and the Spa Casino) currently also have a promotion where new members get a Scratch card which may have from $5 to $500 in FreePlay and current members who bring in a new member get whatever the new member(s) get. Agua Caliente ( Rancho Mirage) ... nothing worthwhile. |
