[vpFREE] Re: LV Advisor 2010 Coupons

I'm probably one of those "hit and run" people, however... I may play a matchplay and then continue to play other games for hours and hours. Aside from the rare snotty dealer, I've not experienced any hesitation in pit bosses or dealers rebuffing my coupons. Usually they are quite friendly and cheer you on. Perhaps it varies by location. I imagine the "locals" casinos get more coupon play than out-of-towners, but that may not be true.
Last week on our vacation, four of us went into the Hilton and played a coupon each @ a roulette table and while the dealer was reading the coupon word-for-word and asking us for our players club cards, the pit boss came over and was very nice and told her not to worry about it. She started to argue and say, "But it says..." and he told her, "I know what it says, don't make them fish for their cards, just let them play." He had a kind smile on his face. We took the other 1/2 of our coupons over to blackjack and the dealer was extremely kind - gave us no hassle at all. We continued to play there for hours. The Palms and Sahara have been equally as easygoing in taking the coupons. Mind you, we play a lot at these 3 places on machines, but they wouldn't know that up front when using the coupons.
I'm disappointed to see the LVA ditch the matchplays. I looked forward to using those. Honestly, there are many casinos that draw me in with those coupons and I end up staying and playing. It ends up being to their benefit in the short and long run.
I don't know whether I'll be renewing this year. I'm leaning towards not.

Always gotta adapt to change in this field, if you want to succeed. I'm like you, it was never my style anyway, although I used a very few before. But it's kinda hard to stay "under the radar" while waving a coupon at them.
