What CET is doing is nothing more than what boz said--a business decision meant to increase net profit. All smart casinos do this, and if some haven't done it yet they will.

This stuff is why when I became a professional gambler in 2000, I developed my play strategy to be successful without regard to comps, freebies, tournaments, drawings, or any slot club fluff whatsoever. Too bad the rest of the gambling world remains years behind.

Note: sports bettors have never really bothered much with comps, freebies, tournaments, drawings, or "slot club fluff." And sports bettors certainly don't count them in any tally of what's been won or lost. Now last I checked, sports bettors were part of "the rest of the gambling world." So I guess sports bettors were years ahead of Argentino. Maybe he copied his approach and attitude from sports bettors. Certainly sounds like it.
