Is this the post you're talking about?

Right now, the Gold Strike is giving money away as if they don't want to get caught with it.

Last week, they started paying a $100 bonus for getting a full house cracked (you must use both hole cards). Making quads is worth $100, a straight-flush $150, and a Royal is worth $200. Obviously, getting those hands cracked=jackpot.

I hear that this promotion has paid out about $3,000/day. That's $20k/week going back to the players, and they plan on running this until the end of the year.

They also have drawings five days a week, good for close to another $1000/day, spread throughout the day ($100 here, $300 there). And they have a free Football Squares pool on Sunday Night and Monday Night, each good for another $1000 ($100 for the first quarter, $500 for the fourth quarter, etc).

I've never seen a card room give away money like this.

(I consulted with a B&M moderator before posting this. He feels confident that my motivation is to share this valuable info with the 2+2 community, as opposed to being motivated to shill for a local cardroom.)

If so, there's no way a cardroom (or employee of cardroom) should be able to spam the B&M forum with this. It's just a promotion designed to draw players to their room. It doesn't matter if you think this particular promotion is very good.

Well i the reds agree with you I will have to reconsider this whole thing. People want to know about what is going on in B&M casinos. To suggest that it can't be told on when someone comes asking about what is going on in Tunica is crazy. This is not similar affiliate spam it would be similar to discussing the iron man stuff at full tilt; that also is a promotion designed to bring people to the poker room, maybe we should keep it a secret.
