Of course you don't mean that you played with the intention of losing. I think everyone understands that. But are you saying that you were playing for comps? Free play is a form of comps, and if you were playing for free play (comps) you were making a very big mistake.
Even those who are in players' clubs should never play for free play, or comps or points. If you do you will be trapped into losing for the sake of the comps. You know what I mean: "just another $100 through the machine and I get ten more tier credits and that bonus."
