I. Point System
$1 Coin-in = 1 Point for mostly Slots
$2 Coin-in = 1 Point for Video Poker
$1 Comp for every 500 points: 20 basis points (0.20%) for Slots / 10 basis points (0.10%) for VP
Comps cannot be used for (a) free play and (b) tips. Comps are mostly used for food, rooms, gift shop, and even gas at the mini mart.

II. Multiple Point Days
Cache Creek does run periodic multiple point days such as 8X for slots in August and recently had 10X for both slots and video poker this past December. I've been told by high tier club members that they regularly get 2X days via mailers during the week.

III. Mailers
Cash Back, match-play, room offers, multiplier days, bounce backs or free play offers (or welfare checks): I am not aware of cash back for video poker. After speaking with a number of high tier players, they are happy with the mailers that may include free play, match-play, etc.

IV. Other Information
On Wednesdays, Cache Creek awards $20 in free play to those individuals who has served or are serving in the military -- you must provide a military ID to be awarded the free play.

V. Video Poker Inventory
As a general comment, the best games can be found in the high limit room starting at $5. These single-line games can be found on the multi-game slant tops with games such as 8/5 Bonus Poker (99.17%), 9/6 Jacks or Better (99.54%), NSUD (99.73%), etc. Btw, the 99.92% Joker Wild game has been gone for years. That makes the 99.80% Triple Bonus the best game in that machine.

Full pay games such as single-line 9/6 DDB (98.98%) can be found in $0.50 denomination on a slant top multigame in the non-smoking area right next to the poker room. $1 9/6 JOB and $1 9/6 DDB can be found in the Royal Zone Blitz so please check individual machines.

There is one bank of Progressive video poker and with the top 3 hands (aka 3-way progressives) being progressive jackpots. The machine is in dollars ($1.00) and it is a 8/5 DDB. Based on what I have observed, the meter movement on the RF is twice the rate for the SF and Quad Aces with kicker. I was avised that the meter movement was supposed to be set at 12.50 basis points (0.1250%) for the STFL and quad aces with kicker so that would make the RF meter movement at 25 basis points (0.25%). This bank is located near the gift shop.

Royal Zone -- this area pays a bonus for dealt or sequential royals or dealt sequential royals:
"WITH MAX BET
All natural Royals paid 2X
All sequential Royals paid 5X
All natural sequential Royals paid 10X"

Royal Zone Blitz Promo
In a nutshell, you get 1 ticket for every royal flush at max coins while playing at the royal zone. At the end of the month, all the tickets are placed in the drum and $10,000 in prizes are awarded. Disclaimer, the Slot Supervisor tells me Cache Creek monitors the tickets, the winners, etc to ensure an honest drawing. If you are planning to stuff the drum, be warned as they will be watching you.

High Limit VP Promo
From time to time, the high limit will offer a drawing awarding extra prizes. It takes a winning amount that triggers a W-2 to be awarded a ticket. This promo is not as consistent as the Royal Zone Blitz Promo. Again, the Cache Creek management monitors these drawings.

VI. Summary
Cache Creek has the best VP inventory in Northern California and based on informal feedback from many players, Cache Creek will provide "fair" rewards and mailers based on coin-in or action.
