Any casino matches from hotel status?
Other than Caesars (matching from Hyatt and Wyndham) are there any other casino programs that will give me status due to my hotel (non-casino) or airline program status?

Hyatt-MGM and Wyndham-Caesars match in both directions, that should be enough. Most casino programmes then match other casino programmes at least at select locations. For instance, for quite some time, Atlantic City has been a good place to go. You can match MGM to Hard Rock's Rock Loyalty. You can match either Caesar's or MGM to 24k. Etc.

Sorry. Should have been more clear. Other than coming from Hyatt and Wyndham, are there any other casino status levels that can be obtained (without spend or stays) by having a non-casino hotel status (such as Marriott, Hilton, etc) or by having any airline status? I
don’t believe either Hyatt or Wyndham are currently doing status matches from other programs and I’d like to leverage a status I already have (or can quickly obtain) in order to then get Caesars Diamond.

Since Wyndham stopped doing matches, it kind of closed the loophole for leveraging other non-casino statuses to match into CR Diamond. Some other ways to get it would be getting Founders Card or Wyndham Business card.
I see you have Hyatt Diamond so you have at least MLIFE Gold. You should be able to status match MLIFE Gold to CR Diamond.

Yes, as I was trying to explain: Match hotel status to, say, Mlife. Then Mlife -> 24k select, Mlife -> B Connected etc.

I do indeed have Hyatt > MLife. My friend does not, but does have top tier status with Marriott and Hilton, as well as most carriers. Hyatt doesn’t seem to be providing status matches into WoH.

Edit to add: Just remembered another option for matching that doesn't get mentioned often. If your friend happens to have status with Royal Caribbean and or Celebrity Cruises, he/she can get matched into MLife as they also have partnership with them. I believe it's RC Emerald or higher and Celebrity Select or higher (double check as I may be wrong since it''s been a while) which matches to MLife Gold then to CR Diamond.

Well, Hyatt actually does occasional straight-up matches or solid challenges for high-tier AA elites. So then the process would be AA->WoH->Mlife->...
Not this road is neither quick nor guaranteed to work. You basically connect your AA and Hyatt accounts and hope they'll target you with their next promo.

You can match CET Diamond to Mlife Gold and Vice versa

MGM and Hyatt had a match going on.
I don't know of Harrah's matching anyone.
Trop would give Hilton diamonds their lowest level status but I don't think they are part of Doubletree any longer

Caesars and Wyndham are partners, you can always match status from one program to the other.

I have my Wyndham and Caesars Diamond accounts linked. I have earned Wyndham Diamond through hotel stays this year, but my TR Diamond shows status only through end of 01/22. Do I have to wait to drop status to get matched or can I confirm my accounts linked now and get my TR card now with status through 2023?
