It's about to change to $500 to earn 1 point and no week by week restrictions (ie just 1 point for every $500 turned over) from November 15. On top of that you need to bet $1 on the day you want "free" parking.

You go to a VIK machine (they are scattered across the main gaming floor, near cashiers and help desks), insert your card, click on the "Points for Table Play" section, and redeem. Then you have to go to a table, give them the voucher, and they will give you chips.
Is this right even though I've earned all my points on sports betting? Also,is there anything stopping me from then just taking the chips and converting them to cash?

No mate, all still available..Never get any issues..I do gamble with Crownbet, just not Casino games..
They are changing the name of the rewards program this week, will be interesting to see the changes. I've heard there will be no more free hotel rooms which is being replaced by bonus bets I believe..

Yep, I got told $750 as well..Assumed it would be bonus bets..Either way, something for nothing is never an issue..
They really do offer a hell of a lot more than anyone else..
I like that!
New site is up.
Platinum reward isn't disclosed but it's a $750 Crown voucher which can be redeemed for table play if you like.
Only 100 SCs required for Platinum now. 500 points per SC.
Can't see Daily Dine atm or any of the SCs earned so far this period but the website might still be updating.

Hey mate, was talking to a staff member the other day about this question. Turns out there are $50 tables available at times but if you go in there and there are only $100 tables open you can request the open a $50 table for you..They are legally obliged to open one on request, hope that helps..

I think the general rule is $50 during the arvo but $100 at night. There was a $50 table open in the afternoon on the Friday before Stakes Day.

I'll say it again, they are legally obliged to open a $50 table if there isn't one open..24/7..That's from a staff member and 100% fact.
This part would be my main question. Obviously it takes a fair bit of effort to retain platinum, and to have the entire spring carnival wiped out with now only 4 and a half months to re-earn 100 credits would be somewhat frustrating.
Mine is sitting at 100 credits still needed to retain Platinum. So I hope there is still some updating to come ...

I'm only gold and there was supposed to be bonus credits given because of it. Don't know how many though.

Help a kid out. Does anyone know if u can still trade points in for hotel nights. And if so which would best fit out of Towers, Metropol and Promenade. Not sure the diff as never stayed there. I have 100,000 points and plan on blowing most of it. Note: Taking the Mrs for her bday, so won't really be much punting more so using accommodation/dining/spa for her etc. Is there anything I should know or don't want to miss out on. Gratzi.
Get a couple nights and throw in day spa and massage

cheers looks like thats a yes, will be 2 nights, friday and Saturday.
As for the hotels themselves, Crown Towers is the best of them. If you can get it for the same price as the others or close enough, it's the best deal. Metropol is also good but everything is slightly less opulent and the view can be pretty ordinary (mine was of the car park recently). I haven't stayed at Promenade but have heard it is a distant 3rd pick of the 3.

Should be perfect. Got a grand, there for 2 days. Cheers troops. Also as a gold class anyone recommend going to those rooms as talked about earlier. Any good besides drink privs or punting or better places to go
The Platinum limit is $750 per day. Gold I'm not sure but have heard $500.
The Mahogany Room for Platinums is very nice and worth the trip. Even if you're not gambling you can sit out on the balcony looking over the city there and enjoy the free drinks/snacks. For gambling, the limits are high and some of the players there bet 5 figures routinely so it can be entertaining to watch.
The Teak Room for Golds is OK - more private and higher limits than the main floor so a better gambling experience, but not really worth going to if you're not gambling as there's not much else there.
Both also have a restaurant, neither of which I visited.
If you are gold, I'd cash out the points in Teak and check it out then but don't expect too much.
