I've always gambled on my cruises but never gotten a free cruise. So I've seen countless posts on people getting free cruises from the casino. So that makes sense!! Edited Apby Domergirl Based on your info, I think it's because he used to play more video poker, and this time he played straight slots.
Thanks, OP for the details! I was wondering why we got it this time, and not previous times (when we were only offered discounts). :) And we upgraded the interior room to a balcony for a total cruise price for 2 of us (including taxes) of $323 for 7 nights. We will be using it on the Liberty in July. So in that example, he would have played more than $500 worth.(the $160 it took him to lose his way from 200 to $40, and the $350 it took him to lose his way from $400 to $50.plus any incremental increases that were lost along the way!)Īfter our most recent cruise in February on the Valor, he got the free cruise offer. But the machine is counting all of the money that he plays for his initial investment of $200. For example.during the course of play, he'll get down to say $40, then win and be up to $400, then lose some more and go down to $50. He'll play slots for quite a while on that money. My husband, for example, will go to the casino with $200. Keep in mind that the amount counted is every dollar in play.
