makes no sense
Why shoot for 25,000 tier points for free Diamond Lounge meals when the equivalent of 20,000 (0r 1000 comp dollars) within the year after being upgraded will keep a Black Label status at The Borgata and pay for 100 Amphora lounge or buffet meals? Diamond Lounges will never compare to the Borgata fare and Comp dollars accumulate twice as fast at The Borgata.
Another alternative is the Gold Nugget where it is rumored 5,000 points in 2011 will get you Chairman.
Some people have already seen the enhancements and weren't at all impressed. CET has lost my husband's and my business and we have both been Diamond for several years. This past year I settled for Platinum, much preferring The Borgata food and slots. Ironically, I can earn a free buffet at Ballys with an hour of play while my husband the Diamond member cannot!
