Free offer problem at Westgate

The jealousy is coming across strong in this thread. Hope it all works out for you Alan.

Alan, you've never seemed to get this. You are the balls-on perfect casino visitor--always have and always will be. You have lost lifetime gambling, and one of the chief reasons is absolutely because you continue to do exactly as the casinos want and expect you to do--and you feel so GOOD about it! God bless you. In fact, I cannot think of one thing you do and/or how you do it, that goes against the wishes of the casinos. For this reason, of course you allow yourself to be manipulated by any host who comes along and makes you feel oh-so-special in any way. And why you would EVER want to have dinner with a host is beyond me. I'll bet you even gift these people at Christmas, just as you gift hand pays to people who have no right to get tipped. I know you look a host as your "good friend" at your "home away from home"----just as they want you to see them and EXACTLY like they're trained to present themselves to players like you. It would be interesting, however, for you to be able to justify these relationships with the fact that their only intention in their contacts with you is to see how fast they can move the maximum amount of funds from your bank account to their employer's bank account.

Sad that you cannot be educated on this very important but also very simple casino fact. And all you can look forward to now is for some other misled gamblers to come on and support you just to make you feel good about your misguided steps. At this point, there is nothing else I can do for you.

Hate to tell you, Rob, but by deviating from mathematically correct strategies at video poker, you are also doing exactly what the casinos want.

Oh boy. I can see it now: Rob will tell you that by not deviating from mathematically correct strategies you can't beat the casinos. And, since most if not all VP games offered now are negative expectation, he's right: you can't beat the casinos playing by the math. All you can do is lose by the amount of the paytable.

Unless you're blessed by God. Or have super powers. Like Rob.

Back to the Westgate. Alan, did your viewer have any report on the state of the Westgate rooms? Any recommendations on tower location or anything? Last time I stayed, there was a wide variance in the state of allegedly similar rooms.

I had no other contact.

I just made a reservation for Bellagio. Here's what the host sent me along with the confirmation number:

Here is your confirmation number for Sunday. Please call me after you arrive, and I will activate your free play. See you soon!
