My record was 7 JPs in one 12 hour visit, including one $9k grand progressive. From February 2021 till middle of March I had accumulated over 80,000 points, which is double the amount of their 2nd highest tier (multiplied by $5 is a lot money bet (they call this 'coin-in') It started out amazing, In those first 4ish weeks I had hit over 31 handpays (jackpots over $1200), many days multiple times. Since Covid, poker slowed down so i started playing more slots. I am usually a poker player that is occasionally a degenerate gambler and play couple hundred a week on slots. You can see the different player card tiers and 'benefits' on their website. For every $5 you bet, you earn 1 player point. This is for the upper management folks to decide which games are the most popular / makes them the most profit etc. They won't provide you with your net wins, lol, I mean losses until the end of the year during tax season. The players card tracks every machine and $ amount you bet. For those of you that rarely visit and only come on special occasions with a couple hundred dollars, I will explain some of the basics now. I will now take you on my journey at Hollywood Casino that mostly began in February. I will try not to be all over the place but I am so, so, so very much in a dark place right now. Warning: this will be a very thorough review rant. It's just a typical suburban casino.If this review helps just 1 person, I will be forever grateful. If I designed one of these places I would put all the card games in a separate area, walled off from all the slots and other nonsense. The outside of the building looks pretty cool but the inside is pretty blah with lots of noise that you can get away from. the casino is basically a square box with a lot of noise and not very unique. One other thing, the music being played is terrible. I went to cash out and the wait was long for seven people in line. Look, if your going t advertise this outdoor experience then update your website when it's not open so people like myself that travel two hours know. It was an afternoon day, beautiful weather, and it was closed. So I left that and went over to the gaming terrace and it was closed. I could only find a seat at criss-cross and it's one of those games where you put a lot of money up front and hope to get a good hit. There was a criss-cross poker, three card poker, blazing 7 something or another, roulette, craps, and a couple of blackjack. I went over to the table games and there were very few open.

First I played a little video poker at one of the several bars and did okay. I really wanted to see the new gaming terrace that opened not to long ago. I visited the casino on a Wednesday afternoon at about 2:30.
