It seems that few if any ever learn a thing from the seldom but useful inputs that populate these forums, and even less people learn from all their losing. What a shame. Rather, the thrills seem to endlessly evolve thru repetitive discussions of which machines need $10 or $25 for a sacred "RC" or if hosts (who obviously care nothing about any of their clients beyond the actual....and not "theoretical"... amounts they lose) can hand out discretionary comps or if you can save two lousy bucks on this buffet vs. that buffet. And please don't forget if and how an extra comp can be squeezed out of Mlife vs. Total Rewards, or lessons given on how to show no shame and neurotically argue with hosts, front desks, & supervisors over the occasional, totally incomprehensible $3 "overcharge" on your bill.

It is almost beyond all belief.
I know you don't believe this, but casino execs actually hate people who take advantage of maximum benefits for the minimum amount of play.

They make little to no money on players like that, even if the players lose a little bit of money in the process of earning their status (due to overhead and the cost of providing the comps).

This is why Seven Stars grinders get terrible offers and hosts don't make much (or any) commission off of them.
