Everyone hears of or knows about Casino
Complimentaries or "Comps" but even some
of the most experienced casino guests are in the
dark about how the casinos arrive at their
decision on how much of a comp any given
customer qualifies for. The casino industry is a
business like any other and the bottom line is
profitability. |
|
| |
Casinos are willing to "Comp" a player
for anything may it be for lunch in the coffee
shop to a complimentary room right on up to a
Penthouse Suite & a Lear Jet in order to bring
the customer in to the casino. Make no mistake;
the casino wants to comp you for anything they
can as long as you qualify for that
complimentary based on a number the casinos call
a "Theoretical Casino Win". |
|
| |
What is a "Theoretical Casino Win"? The
casino does not base their comping decisions on
what you may win or lose, but rather on a
theoretical figure of your worth to them in
profitability. How do they calculate this
figure? Quite simply on your action in the
casino. A very easy explanation would be that
they take your average bet times the amount of
time you play and calculate in the odds of the
game you play - slots or tables. This total is
called a "Theoretical Casino Win". It is
from this figure that the casino will decide how
much you are allotted in casino complimentaries;
allowing a certain percentage of this
Theoretical Casino Win in "Comps". Of
course keeping in mind there are variables they
will take into consideration, one of those
variables being a players gaming loss, for
instance, so there are exceptions to every rule
but that is basically how it works. |

"Casino Rates" are also available. These
greatly reduced rates are offered, upon hotel
availability, to smaller casino players or to
players who want to establish themselves with
the casino. Comps are available prior to
departure for those who qualify. This is a good
introduction to becoming a "Rated Player". |
|
| |
And just what is a ""Rated Player"? Each
casino has a different Theoretical Win
percentage policy and some casinos may have a
"Points" comping policy (based on the
Theoretical Win number) in which you can
accumulate and redeem your points for comps,
merchandise or even cash-backs. It is different
in each casino so it pays to register with the
casino and get a "Rating Card". It is a
very easy procedure - you simply fill out a form
with your name address and date of birth and the
casino will issue you a rating card on the spot.
Always make sure you use it each and every time
you play at a table or slot machine so all the
proper comp credits will accrue. This procedure
will allow you to become a "Rated Player".
Once you have established yourself with a casino
you will more readily be eligible for future
complimentaries. |

This is where "Worldwide Casino Enterprise
Ltd" comes into the picture. If you are a
"Rated Player" we may be able to comp you
prior to your casino holiday. Some of our
Casino-Resorts will offer comps "Up Front"
which means prior to your trip - others may
offer you a Casino Rate but if you go in through
the casino it is always and advantage as you
will be eligible for comps prior to your
departure, if you qualify. If you are not a
"Rated Player". we can help establish you at
the casino of your choice. |

The world of chips and dice is growing and
changing very rapidly and so gaming policies
change as well. If you need further information
or explanation regarding the above gaming
policies please feel free to call us. It would
be our pleasure to discuss it with you at any
time. |
