Best ways to Seven Stars, Diamond, or "Diamond in a Day" for Caesars properties around the US

They might extend Diamond for this reason, but I'm guessing they won't because you already get a full extra year with it (well, an extra year if you earn it via play, and do so early in the year.)

The people who are really going to get fucked are the ones who earned it in December 2019. Theirs expires in January 2021 and they will barely get benefits out of it.

Guess we'll see. Maybe they'll tack on an extra year anyway, just to entice people to come back and prevent complaints/frustration over earned status being "wasted".

Not that anyone cares right now, but before I got diamond with the credit card trick I had signed up for FoundersCard, cancelled, and got the $295 offer just like Druff said.
That was maybe 2 months ago and I didn't respond and yesterday I got an offer of one year for $99. I wonder if they're going to get any takers on that deal?

Probably being offered for $99 because of the coronavirus, and I assume nobody wants a card like that right now because they're not going anywhere or doing anything.

You can apply for the Amex Hilton HHonors Surpass Card, which has a $95 annual fee. That gives you instant Hilton Gold status, which can then be converted via status matches to Caesars Diamond.

Here's how:

1) Get a free Hilton HHonors account. If you're already a member, you can skip this step.

2) Apply for the card. If you already have Hilton Gold, good news! You can skip this step, and you'll get Caesars Diamond for free! (Just follow the below steps.)

3) Get a Wyndham Rewards account. If you already have a Wyndham account, you can skip this step.

4) Once you've been approved for the card and get upgraded to HHonors Gold, do a free (and instant) status match to Wyndham Diamond.

5) Once you are Wyndham Diamond (verify it says Diamond when you log into your Wyndham account), go do a status match to Caesars Rewards Diamond. First login to your Caesars Rewards account on caesars.com. Then come back here and click this link to do the match. Then wait 7 days for it to take effect.

You will have Caesars Diamond until January 31 of the following calendar year.

Do NOT worry about Wyndham's scary message that you'll lose Diamond within 90 days. This will NOT downgrade your Caesars Rewards status. Once matched, you will have Caesars Diamond until January 31 of the following year, no matter what.

None of this is illegal or against program terms.

Unfortunately wyndham isn't offering status match anymore :(

Thanks for the update.

Now that Tropicana Atlantic City is part of Caesars, does earning points there go towards Diamond?
Or are they still on their own system?

Update on Harrah's Lake Tahoe

9-6 Jacks or Better 8-50 play is now $0.50 minimum for 9-6. ($0.25 was previously 9-6, is now 9-5). My partner and I both Diamond in a Day'd at this machine earlier today thanks to the 5x Tier Credit bonus that Caesars is running this weekend. Luckily we both hit one Royal (which requires a hand pay at $0.50/hand 50 play), but that variance at $0.50 is pretty tough to swallow.

Has anyone noticed anything about the usual comp nights you get every 5K tier credits (Up to 7). I earned two but lost the email with the codes. They can’t find them when I call them on the phone. I use to try and use these at Caesars Palace on weekend nights to maximize the equity. Have they taken the benefit away?

I believe it's only for 5k tiers you earned in the calendar year.

But if you did earn 10k tiers in 2021, call up Caesars Palace and ask for "casino services", and talk to them about it. Alternatively, see if you can reach Caesars Rewards, even if through the contact form on caesars.com.

Thanks Druff. They are for sure from this year, shortly after I hit 10K. I was speaking to someone in the states and they couldn't find it. Hopefully was just a shitty agent and I'll get someone better on the phone next time. Would really suck if they took away the benefit I do remember getting the email.

I just called this morning and was informed that the 2020 "tier night rewards" were extended to 1/31/22 because of COVID.

So you'll get a night for every 5k you earned in 2020, as well. However, there are apparently a lot of blackout dates, which sucks.

Call the hotel operator and ask for "casino services" to book. Do not call reservations.

Someone pending validation to this site actually found my email and sent me the codes. Thanks very much. I’ll put the codes below and I think everyone can use their imagination for the other 5 nights if they reach those milestones.

So you don’t waste an hour like I did on the phone….here is the deal with these nights…I used to get a weekend at Ceasar’s Las Vegas in a nice room with these. That is no longer happening. Looks like every Friday/Saturday are blacked out in both AC & Vegas for the time being. I think Vegas may stay that way but once it gets cold in Atlantic City, towards the end of the year, they may make those nights available.

Code won’t work online. Have to call. You can book back to back nights but they will be separate reservations. They’ll sort that out at the Hotel. You also don’t have to worry about the 48 hour between promo rule at least. You can tack this on to the end of another stay as long as they are weeknights.

Thanks again to that soon to be PFA member. Here are the codes. They are the same for anyone who has hit the target.


BECAUSE YOU EARNED: LET US OFFER YOU:
5,000 Tier Credits 1 FREE NIGHT
CR50001N1
10,000 Tier Credits 1 FREE NIGHT
CR10KT1N1

Silver Legacy-Reno has two $.05/$.10/$.25 50 play 9/6 JOB and one $.01/$.02/$.05/$.10 100 play 9/6 JOB in a bank near the cashier's cage on the main floor.

All three machines are $10/tier credit. All three Downtown Reno ROW properties are now fully integrated into the Caesars Rewards system, and give the appropriate TC bonuses.

The only annoying thing about these is that the countdown doesn't appear on the screen, so you have to manually keep track of your coin in.

Well, Hilton stopped matching, I think, so I got a Wyndham Business card, still a $100 or so annual fee and just got matched to Diamond in about a week. Not just Diamond--- Diamond Plus.

This was an amazing deal with Hilton, as I got 2 celebration dinners which at least matched the Hilton fee (plus mile bonuses etc.) Now Wyndham has similar mile bonuses (I don't know about the hotels, but you can transfer those credits to Caesars, and I'm sure I can find something to use them on)

Jumping the poker line is most key...

I guess if your credit is decent, spend the money, get the card, jump the line... profit?

What is Diamond Plus worth besides the celebration dinner and jumping the poker line (and no resort fees)? Those three are worth way more than enough for me.

Diamond and Diamond Plus are very similar, except Plus gets you into the VIP (Laurel) Lounges.

Here's a list of benefits: https://www.caesars.com/myrewards/benefits-overview



Wyndham status match still works. If you were Wyndham Diamond in 2021, you are still in 2022. They extended it.

Caesars will re-match you.

In the few places that still have Laurel Lounges. AC still does but I’m not sure where else they do. Obviously Vegas isn’t reopening them with the spaces being renovated.

This is where Daryl would have been helpful.

The fact is there isn’t much reason for anyone to support Caesars anymore, and really hasn’t for years.

No Laurel Lounges in Vegas. Doubt they’ll reopen them. Now Diamond Plus gets you 4 free drinks a day. I use my tix on coffee and bottled water. Miss the shitty free food though.

Is it worth it to upgrade to Diamond Elite?

Not unless you can do it for free or cheaply.

While I don’t know how it works in Vegas casinos, in a lot of tri state area casinos you can rack up tier points by playing high limit Baccarat without playing many hands! As long as the table has a decent amount of players, find out who the degen is and let them bet every hand. All the focus will be on them and you can sit back and watch while getting rated for the table stakes.

You will need to keep up appearances like buying in For $1000 or more and pretending to get excited when the table wins. But if you place 3 or 4 bets per shoe, you not only have a decent chance to profit but your tier rating will go up quite a bit. You may want to keep a baccarat scorecard handy and fill out or pretend to while sitting out hands.
