SoCal folks, Check out the Barona Casino (Brick & Mortar) $200 offer (thru 4/30/06) -- advantage play

It's a little different than online offers, but an excellent deal.
1st time signers to the slots club.
Minimum 2 hours of play on your 1st day -- no WR.
VP ok as slot requirement.
They'll pay up to $200 on your losses, or double your winnings up to $200.

There are some decent VP machines remaining -- you'll want to avoid most. Go real early and you'll get a seat at a decent machine.

Deposit $200 and play 1.75 hours slowly and carefully. If you don't have a winning balance at that point, turn up the bets and press your variance into a $200 loss or a substantial win. Any other option is a waste.
My friend went home 'even'. I went home with a nice little payday.
