One of the casinos where Mr. Troutbend won big last year recently offered him $25 in free slot play if he completed an online survey. It's one of those deals where you indicate on a scale of five how much you agree with each question. Usually the casino surveys ask how the room was, how the restaurants were, and what you think of their players' rewards systems.

It looks like they are trying to do a psychological study of their customers for whatever devious purpose. It'd be interesting to find out the results of such a study and what they plan to do with the information.

Are you wondering if one of us completed it and got the $25 free play? Guess!
