I always have to do a cost/benefit analysis with running action on video poker for room comp. I have to ask myself "what is a spot worth just vulturing slots?" And "how good is the video poker and how many hours do I have to play to get the room comp." If the vulturing is good then I'm giving up hourly rate there to run action on the video poker. So is it worth the time and money to run the action on the video poker or should I just pay for the room myself? If the vulturing is worth $70 an hour and the video poker is breakeven then I really shouldn't be running vp action to get room comp. I should just pay for the room myself.
