I went to Rhode Island today because I heard that Monday they opened a slot club at Lincoln Park (a racino near Providence).

Yes they did, but it was the worst players club I have ever been to, and I have been to over 300 different casinos.

First of all they will only give you ONE card. And they will not give ANY blanks.

The cards do not go into the slot machines... they are used only as SWIPE AND WIN cards in special kiosks, and only on special days. So no chance of finding any laying around.

They want you to swipe the card when you enter the casino and again when you leave... so they don't track your play, just the amount of time you spend there. THESE CARDS ARE GOING TO BE TOUGH TO GET.

I did manage to sign up twice and get one trader. I do go to Providence about once a month and should be able to get a couple each time in the future.

I know there will be a demand for this one so for now I will put this first trader up for a BBS auction on this board (NOT FOR MONEY, BUT FOR OTHER SLOT CARDS).

The person who bids the most DIFFERENT cards from anywhere or everywhere will get this first ever issue Rhode Island slot card.

Place your bid in the "SUBJECT:" box in response to this posting. The auction will end Friday evening at midnight.
