11/11/11 casino promos, including $11,111 for flopping quad Jacks

Las Vegas casinos are always looking for an excuse for a fun promotion, and after Halloween we’ll have Nov. 11, or lucky 11/11/11.

We fully expect the wedding chapels to be full that Friday.

Casinos will be loading up on promos galore that day, with offers such as an 11x multiplier on points (at The Orleans, from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., of course).  That’s pretty huge, effectively giving you $1 cashback for every $91 playthrough in slots.  If you’re Sapphire, you’ll already get 2x points, and if you’re Emerald you’ll already get 3x points.  $1 for every $30 coin-in cannot be beaten.

At all the Station Casinos poker rooms, you’ll get a whopping $11,111 (not a misprint) if you flop quad Jacks (you must be holding two Jacks), or $1,111 if you turn or river quad Jacks (again with two Jacks in your hand).  Not bad for folding all day.  After all, the chances of getting pocket Jacks are 220 to 1 and then flopping quads are 407 to 1.  At an ideal table, to get as many hands in as possible with minimal investment, everyone would continually fold until someone hit pocket Jacks.
