By the way, went there again on Sat, 27 Dec 08 with 2.20pm ferry. My aim is to hit and run, so booked 5pm return trip.

After a few spins, hit no 17 with $50 ... the payout was $1.7k

Checked the time ... 4.30pm, about to board the ferry liao. made about $1k.

Never run .... continue to play, in the end no win no lose. Free trip there and free fruits from my F & B voucher !

Greed ! Greed ! Greed !

hi just wondering, Baccarat on banker has a house edge of 1.06% but LW rolling commission is 1.2%. This means that LW is making a loss by implementing this system. Anyone can comment on this???

Just recieved a SMS from L W :

" Good News! Wef 1 - 24th Jan 2009, VAL members taking 6.30pm ferry to L W will be entitled to $40 non cashable credits. Excludes Sat & Eve of PH."

Any bros here can explain what is non cashable credits

Thanks

Means... the chip cannot cash for money but can use to play and earn real chip.... just win $40 chip and lose the non cashable chip back to them!

Bro, when we tok abt LW, we r only interested in the casino, and the food they serve there is also so so. Hence if u bring ur gf for relaxation, i would advise u try star crusie, better for family outting or date.

That's true. The offer is just a sales gimmick to lure gamblers there. The $40 chips will very likely be 'eaten' by them plus the other cash u bring along. I made several trips there but always ended up returning with my pockets flushed out. If you intend to go, make sure u bring Lady Luck with u to fight off all the devils.

Yes. I also received it. I think no difference. It is only that we do not have to change $300 to get the non cashable credits

Besides gambling in the Casino, the ferry ticket provide you with free entertainments and foods on board. Facilities like Suana, Massage, Manicure/Padicure, Foot Reflexology and Hair saloon etc.... you have to pay.

For Ticketing :

Leisure World (L W) @ TMFT cost $42, get $40 or $45 rebate in exchange of $200/$300/$500 gambling chips

Royale Star (R S ) @ TMFT cost $20 or $10

Long Jie (L J ) @ HF cost $60 upfront, at the Ship pay another $250, get back $300 gambling chips

Only R S and L J offer Cruise To Nowhere (CNW) on Tues night and Thurs night respectively. For CNW, you only pay the Sea Port Tax (SPT) of $38. Boarding at HF before 8pm.

Off course, you need your International passport but there is no stamping

Except for CNW, you need to transfer to another ferry @ BATAM to bring you to the Casino Ships.

Hope this info clear your doubts .........

Banker have approximately 2.5% advantage over player, but we are paying the casino 5%, so nett they make about 2.5%. Rolling give us 1% so the casino still make 1.5%

The ship is being too generous to give $40 chips away. This is a good golden opportunity for people to make at least $600 per month. All they need to do is to put $40 coupon on banker and another $20 chip on player and you will surely get in return $40. u make $20 per day which is $600 per month.

Not sure whether the ferry ticket is still $42 for 6:30 ferry.
If you no need to change to get rebate, there is no difference.

Like that how to earn $600 per month.
