Orlasmom Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 Not sure how to earn Casino Points. Can they be earned by playing all games, like craps? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianB Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 Casino loyalty points on board are earned similar to many land-based casinos. For regular slot machines, every five dollars bet equals one point. For poker machines it’s usually every ten dollars bet equals one point. That’s because the player has more control to affect the outcome on the poker machine. Keep in mind…it’s not how much you put into the machine, but how much play you get. For instance, putting in ten dollars should give you two points…five dollars a point. But, if you put in ten dollars and are lucky enough to hit for twenty dollars and keep playing, you can earn six points. Your total bets equal thirty dollars even though you only put in ten. Many machines can give you quite a bit of play…win some lose some…over an extended period and your ten dollars can result in you earning many more points. It’s not the amount you put in…but how many times you bet five dollars. Table games have different rules. Based on the type of game, the amount bet and the total time played. Many players change their bet amounts while they play. Those rules are not as clear as the slot machines and it can be difficult to keep track of what you are earning while you’re playing. You can always ask the pit boss. DoomSlayer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julanna Posted June 28, 2023 Report Share Posted June 28, 2023 Hi Brian, I've seen people in group chats say they walk out with 7000 or more points from being on the penny slot and better 88 cents to $1.88. How are they walking away with these kind of points if you are saying you need to bet $5 to gain a point? I mean, I also get they may hit a jackpot of a couple thousand as well. Is that how?

Bowen Posted June 28, 2023 Report Share Posted June 28, 2023 Great examples: My mom and I played slots on Allure, she put in $60 the entire cruise and just kept winning. She ended up with over 700 points for that $60. I put in $700 ($100 a night) over the duration and ended up with less than 700 points. So for her the cost of each point was like 10 cents, and for me it was over a dollar. It just all depends on your luck and whether or not you leave that money in and keep playing.

BrianB Posted June 28, 2023 Report Share Posted June 28, 2023 @Julanna Some machines have bets as low as twenty five cents a spin, or even lower. You still need to bet five dollars to get one point. So you would need to spin twenty times at twenty five cents a spin to earn one point. Some machines have a maximum bet of twenty dollars a spin…so each spin will earn four points. Each five dollars equals one point. You can earn thousands of points by playing over a long period of time even on penny slots. It takes a lot of time to do it. For instance, betting .88 cents a spin a on a penny machine will take nearly six spins to earn one point. But, if you’re lucky, you may find yourself on a machine that gives lots of play for your money. Otherwise, you would need to keep feeding the machine to keep playing. I like to find what I call a ‘points’ machine. Those are machines that I know have a history of good play. They may not have as many jackpots, but they win just enough to keep playing…and keep earning points. Jackpots have no effect on points. Someone can put in twenty dollars, and on their last spin win a thousand dollar jackpot. They still earned only four points. One point for each five dollars.

KaiaPerkins Posted November 30, 2023 Report Share Posted November 30, 2023 These points are typically earned by participating in various casino games, and yes, that includes craps. The more you play, the more points you accumulate. It's like getting a little extra something for enjoying your favorite games.Casinos often have loyalty programs in place where you can redeem these points for a range of perks. These rewards can vary from complimentary meals at the casino's restaurants to free rooms for your stay. Some casinos even offer the option to convert your points into additional gaming credits, giving you more chances to try your luck.So, whether you're rolling the dice at the craps table or trying your hand at other online casino games, keep an eye on those Casino Points.

Obdave Posted November 30, 2023 Report Share Posted November 30, 2023 Never hurts to tip your dealer. I regularly place a pass line bet and add odds. They quickly learn your name and who knows if it adds to the way you are rated? I like to think so. I also stick to the same table and dealers for the length of the cruise.

tonyfsu21 Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 I don’t trust the table games at all as a method for accumulating points. There are far too many variables including the human element which has the potential to work against you. DoomSlayer and WAAAYTOOO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention less than desired odds on table games like 6-to-5 blackjack payouts and single line odds on craps unless you bet big. Table games are the slowest way to earn points on board. I usually save my table play for land-based casinos and just play slots with my wife onboard. After all -- happy wife, happy life.

billdauterive Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 Agreed that if you're just concerned with points then table games are not the way to go because it is so variable. However, I just can't bring myself to push a button to ask a machine if I win several thousand times... WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes the mind numbing task of pressing a button much more exciting. Snotarni 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holdandy Posted July 5 Report Share Posted July 5 Earning Casino Points can vary depending on the casino and the games you play. From my experience with platforms like Panen123, you can usually earn points by playing a variety of games, including craps. Typically, points are awarded based on factors like how much you wager or the duration of your play session. It's always a good idea to check the specific rules or ask at the casino for details on their points system. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCIFanatic Posted July 8 Report Share Posted July 8 Table games are tricky in that the formula used to calculate your points at any specific table game would expose their "house edge %" or THEO. I'm guessing the casinos aren't really willing to tell you what their house edge is on any specific table game and that's why it's so hush hush. Then you have the human element of the supervisor entering in your average bet correctly, unless you're on a ship like wonder or icon.

Mr.Cruiser Posted July 19 Report Share Posted July 19 Another question: Do I have to earn the 2500 points to hit Prime status during 1 and current cruise or can I continue to use my points I‘ve earned on the last cruise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime is 2500 points during a casino year. The casino year is April 1 - March 31. You can earn it over as many cruises as you need to during the year. Your account at http://www.clubroyaleoffers.com will keep your running tally for the year, but each new cruise your counter will show at 0 on the ship. You can check with the casino host when you think you are close to the cumulative 2500 and they can verify.

Mr.Cruiser Posted July 19 Report Share Posted July 19 Thank you. I see. So if I earned like 600 points on my last cruise they should appear soon on that website under earned tier credits? Also there I can see I‘ve got an offer named 2024 instant reward with $200 off. Can I apply this to an existing booking or is it only valid when booking a completely new cruise?

WAAAYTOOO Posted July 19 Report Share Posted July 19 3 minutes ago, Mr.Cruiser said: Can I apply this to an existing booking or is it only valid when booking a completely new cruise? As with all things, it largely depends on who you get on the phone at Club Royale BUT they "rule" is, the $$ off are for new bookings only. Having said that, I have been able to get a $$ off applied to an existing booking (once). My guess is that if you ask, they will tell you that if you apply the $$ off to an existing booking, they will reprice your fare at the current price. Rarely, that will actually work in your favor if the fare on your cruise has actually gone down, but as well all know, that is almost never the case. Depending upon when you originally booked, my guess is that the cruise fare has gone up enough that the $$ off will be meaningless and actually cost you money rather than saving you money. It never hurts to ask ! Mr.Cruiser 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it may take a few days after the end of the cruise to update but you'll see it there. Once you hit 2500 tier points you are entitled to the Prime benefits for the remainder of the tier period (through March 31st). If you think you'll make it to 2500 points during a cruise (say you started at 2100 and you earn another 400 during the cruise) go to the host desk and ask if you've accrued enough points for Prime status. They will check and if you have they will put a Prime sticker on your SeaPass card, which entitles you to the Prime benefits for the remainder of that cruise too.
