Casino Comps

Comps, which is short for complimentary are free things given away by casinos to make you make sure that you keep playing.  I personally believe that comps are one of the most successful marketing campaigns in the gaming industry.  Of course there are many different types of comps such as free buffets, show tickets, and free hotel stays.  Now you also get free drinks but don’t expect the top shelf stuff because most of the time that is reserved for the high rollers.
In order for you to take advantage of comps you have to register with the casino by getting a rewards card.  This enables the casino to see exactly how much you are spending when you do play.  Most casino’s will have at least three different play levels such as; gold, silver, and platinum.  Every time you buy in a game if you can afford to do so with no less than $100.  From the time of your buy in when you use your player’s card the casino is keeping track of both your winnings and losses.  There are many people that are superstitious about using player’s cards because they are overly paranoid by an Orwellian ideology (Big brother is watching).  I assure you that using a player’s card in a casino has more advantages than disadvantages.  I receive offers every month from casino’s from free hotel rooms to free money.  Every chance I get I try to take advantage of comps and I highly suggest  that you do the same.
