to 4000) Base Reward Credits in the year to get Platinum status and 10,000 to get Diamond status. Comps don't expire for 6 months, and are banked indefinitely as long as one point is earned every 6 months. Also, comp points can be used at any Harrah's property. Most Marketing offers aren't deducted from your Reward Credit balance. Hosts can over-ride the new Rewards Program to take care of "good" players. Hosts can't give discretionary comps until all reward credits are used up.

Found $1/$2 FPDW GameKing TITOs at Harveys Lake Tahoe, located just outside the Mountain Tower elevators where the $1 DDlx used to be. Three out of a bank of six machines, they are brand new, fast (1,000+ hph) slant tops. You get 1 Bonus Reward Credit (= 1 cent) per $600 coin-in at these machines, but for $80 per hour of expected win, who cares! There was only one other serious player during my two day stay.
Aug, 2004
The $5 Gamemaker with Pickem is MIA. Harveys has added an 8/5 BP $1 progressive just outside the poker room.
Aug, 2004
Harveys has become a VP wasteland. Switching to TITO was almost complete by the end of May, and all good VP are gone (PE, DDlx, even the 8/5 Job progressives). Nothing at the 5¢ level, best game by a long shot at 25¢ is 8-5 Bonus; at 50¢ and $ there is 8-5 Bonus and 9-5 JoB. The lone $5 PE is still there (and that's the only PE machine at Harveys or Harrah's). Nothing else returns above 98%. Harrah's still has a few 25¢ JoB, and $ NSUD (1- and 3- play).
May, 2004
This past Tuesday morning (May 4th) the 10 $1 Duces Deluxe machines were removed. The 5 .25 DWdlx machines remain, but locals tell me not for long.
Apr, 2004
Harveys Lake Tahoe: Also owned by Harrahs, and your Total Rewards card works the same as at Harrahs. No DB here, but there is a lone $5 PE machine at the high-limit area, no $1 PE, the 5c and 25c PEs are next to the interior (Mountain Tower elevators). Best game here is Deuces Deluxe (some labelled as Deuces Wild Bonus) with 4700-coin royal (100.65%) in 25c and $1 denominations (can use Aiport aka Illinois Deuces strategy as basic strategy for this game), also in the same area. 25c NSU inside the Hard Rock Cafe, great Pork Shank there, but charges at the Hard Rock cannot be settled with your brc's. Avoid the crowded, over-priced, and over-rated Pacifica buffet.
Mar, 2004
The old 25 cent "Deuces Wild Bonus" (DWdlx) games are with the 25 and 5 cent GameMakers with Pick'em down between the buffet entrance and the existing 1$ DWdlx machines. I've never seen a $1 Pick'em machine there, so it's either phantom or MIA. BTW, comp points on the 5$ Pick'em machine in the high-roller zone are roughly 2x base points; comp points on the $1 DWdlx are roughly 4x base points once you're about 1/2 hour into play.
