If you want diamond, recycle about $100,000 through a slot machine. Table players are not highly valued by Harrahs.

Avg table bet of $100 ~ Slot bet of $1 (as explained to me by Harrah's host).
BJ may be worse.

$1 slots for 1 hr (400 bets x $3/bet) = $1,200.
~100 hrs for Diamond ($110,000, unless you use the Diamond-in-a-day program).

So my guess would be at least 100 hrs of BJ ($100/bet). Maybe more like 1,000 hrs of BJ.

100 average bet for a 4 hr gaming day will net you approximately 500-800 points based on a very rough approximation and will be subjectively determined by the pitboss. so I would say 20-24 gaming days would get you to diamond which requires 11000 points.

You could obviously speed that rate up by adjusting size of bet or duration of gaming hours/day. That being said chasing a Tier score is not a good idea. That lure is the sole focus of a an entire casino marketing division. Focus on winning and keeping your winnings.
