[ QUOTE ]
You said you have played 20k-50k on the tables. I know losing 32k blows and it was stolen from your room but you seem to be pretty well off is it really that big of a deal? [/ QUOTE ] Yes it's a big deal. isn't 32k a huge deal to anyone? It's not about the money as much as it's about the principle of how this is being handled like I said in my myspace I am donating 1/2 of what is returned to Charity.

The big thing is don't put money in your hotel lockbox. That's the big thing. I know it sucks, I know I'd be irate if it happened to me but now we know nothing can be done in your situation.

You really think this money will be returned?Charity or no charity this money will not be returned.
You can kick up a stink but it will get you no where.

My favorite part (sorry about your situation) is that the harrah's cameras work as well outside the amazon room. Do they even have security?

Re: Large THEFT! Rio Hotel Las Vegas 6/29/07
That kind of camera set up is pretty typical for a casino. They don't like people to know, but room security is not a priority. I don't know if if will work, but your best leverage for a settlement, (with terms that will never be disclosed), is to be ready to make a giant public stink about it during the ME. It should be worth something to Harrah's to avoid the press conference out front with the photos. Have you lawyer discuss this with them, and stop posting.

Since apparently there are no cameras in the hallway, (a surprise to me), someone should claim to seriously injure himself by slipping on a wet rug or something to that effect, and sue Harrahs for $1 Million for pain and suffering. Harrahs will eventually install cameras in the hallway.

Re: Large THEFT! Rio Hotel Las Vegas 6/29/07
I'm also a Diamond Member, and am appalled at how Harrah's has handled this to date. I agree that it's smart for you to give them a chance to "make it right", but don't shy away from making this a media nightmare for them if they don't. Harrahs and MGM are really battling each other for loyal rewards members, and you could really dent their reputation. The small stupid disclaimer (I've stayed at Harrah's properties easily 30-40 times in the last 3 years, and have used the safe and never seen the disclaimer myself) should not hold up if this is escalated. Count me in if you need support --- I'm willing to boycott Harrah's too on this one. If enough Diamond Members make a big stink about this, I'd sure hope someone in Mgmt will come to their senses and make this right.

Someone knew there was a substantial amount of cash in that one. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
