When Harrahs owned Skycity in Auckland NZ the slots were paying quite
well - as well as you could probably expect from slots. After they
sold out, Skycity just got crappier and crappier and 'freebies' also
totally disappeared. They virtually have a monopoly so I guess they
think they cheat their players as much as they like.
