Free Drinks in Casino

[rabbit72]

I have read people saying that they get free drinks in the casino....this is not for the premiere cruisers, does anyone know how to get free drinks?

Thanks!

You have to gamble a large amount of money. I believe it’s around $1500 but I am sure someone will correct me. 
 

The drinks on us card is also only good in the casino and not everywhere else on the ship.

I figured it would be a decent amount gambled. Thanks!

We booked the valor with $500 obc and drinks on us. Pretty good deal!

It’s 1500 gambled not lost. That can also change based on many factors.

Just so I'm understanding this 1500 pts can earn you free drinks...is every $1 soent equal to 1 point?  We receive the premier offer but have never used it.

I believe that every $2.50 bet is equal to 1 point accrued.  1,500 points would equal $3,750 bet.  Keep in mind that slot machines, for example, probably have something like a 92% return rate on a cruise ship. (they'll never advertise the actual figure, so this is just a ballpark guess - In Vegas you could probably find 97%-98% -> more competition there...).  So... you're $3,750 bet would return about $3,450 to you and you'd be down something like $300 - depends on your luck.  

 

As MANY others have said - if you're going to be gambling anyway, this is a nice benefit, but if you're just gambling to accrue a $300 "free" drink, that seems beyond ridiculous.

1,000 points required on cruises 5 days or less, 1,500 on 6 days or more.

 

1 point = $2.50 run through slots or $5 run through video poker.

Thanks so much for all the info. I really appreciate it.

Wow I have to watch my slot playing, I ended up with over 10,000 points on my last cruise
