Table Games points can be earned at any Agua Caliente Casino excluding Agua Caliente Fuel.

3.     Slot Players must activate their electronic drawing entries on the day of each drawing. In order to successfully activate electronic drawing entries towards each drawing, the qualified ACE Club members will be required to follow the below steps:

b.       The ACE Club member must close their rating by removing their ACE Club Card (or via Cardless Connect) from a slot machine at least 10 minutes prior to any upcoming drawing time.  This process must be repeated for every drawing time to repopulate any new entries earned into the electronic drawing drum.
