Default Re: Massive Turnover in Caesars Palace Staff?

[ QUOTE ]
I'm a local Vegas player, Caesars USED to be my home room. No more. Myself and several others booked. Until we hear that the rake goes back, neither do we.
Two of the Station Casino's tried raising the rake, and they lost 3/4 of the local play. A few months later they sent out letters to players offering comps for them to come back and apologizing for the experimental raising of the rake. I never went back. Live and learn. Hopefully the other rooms (not Harrahs or Stations) are watching and learning from the others mistakes.

The experiment failed at Station casinos because they have a much higher concentration of locals than do Harrah's properties. A $5 rake at Red Rock is going to piss off the nitty local living in Summerlin a hell of a lot more than a clueless tourist from Nebraska playing at Paris.

Just to make it clear though, I am in no way in favor of the $5 rake. I find it disgusting.
