There are two different ways to use the word "value". One is in a more mathematical type sense -- $100 in FP played on 9/6 JOB has a value of $99.54. Of course, there are other things that might decrease (or even increase) the value. If you believe there is a 50% chance the FP has been or will be revoked, then it's only worth half of that, so its value would be $49.77. Or, if you're also getting 0.3% cash-back while playing FP, then that $100 in FP would have a value of $99.84. If you aren't already going to be at the casino, you're going to lose some value because you have to go there (car + gas expense + spent time + lost money you could be making somewhere else).

Another way to use the word value is in a more entertainment type sense. How do I value a good night's (wtf or good nights?) rest? How do I value a free ticket to a water park, some collectible baseball card, a painting, or the value of $100 in FP? Someone might say they value $100 FP as 2 hours worth of free entertainment.

Someone might value a free movie ticket as being worth $15 (or however much a ticket costs) if that person enjoys watching movies and would watch that movie. I would value it as 1.5 hours of free entertainment, not as $15, because I wouldn't likely go see a movie (unless it's free), usually.


How much do I value FP? It depends where it is, when it's available, and if I'm going to be there or in that area. If it's $5 at Aliante, it's going to be close to $0 value to me (unless I'm up there for whatever f***ed up reason). If it's $1000 and across the street from me, it's going to be worth around $990 to $995. [Not saying I'd buy $1k in FP for $990, though.] Although I have purchased FP before, it was a fairly large amount and got a 12% discount on it.
