Re: [vpFREE] Re: Scot Krause's Slot Club Spotlight - 8 MAR 2016

I completely disagree. I play at some casinos where the benefits that I get from using a slot club card are staggering, cash back, free play offers, high dollar tournaments, that's not even counting comps. The worst that has happened to me in over 30 years of playing is that I do too well at a casino and my offers dropped. In Mickey's case where the benefits are small from his card and he moves around to a lot of properties then I can see where there would be minimal benefit to a card, but for someone playing in Vegas or anywhere else where you are a regular player the benefits from a card are just too high to give up.

A.P.

I think there are a lot of different definitions of "playable", so I suggest just looking at slot cards on an EV basis. The cost of being tracked is difficult to determine, but I suggest that it is HUUUGE and almost always substantially more than the return benefits of the card, hence the modern slot card is almost always negative EV.
