Where to Play

I will give you some general rules here about where to play to maximize your comps but you will have to refine the technique to your own particular betting style and limits. You will obviously want to play where your play is appreciated, and rewarded. You will find that competition for your business, and maximum comps return is concentrated where the casinos are forced to compete, in other words where there are a lot of casinos.

Low Rollers-This includes quarter players and dollar slot players and up to $5 table players. The following casinos will reward your level of play best:

Downtown Las Vegas generally and specifically: The Plaza, Lady Luck, Four Queens, Golden Gate, Fitzgeralds, Las Vegas Club, Fremont and others.

Strip Casinos: Imperial Palace, Stratosphere, Riviera, Circus Circus, Stardust, Sahara, Barbary Coast, Harrah's

The following strip casinos are not that interested in quarter players. You better be prepared to play at least a dollar at the slots and ten or more at the tables for any comps here: Venetian, Mandalay Bay, Caesars, Bellagio, Alladin, Monte Carlo, Luxor, Mirage, Treasure Island.

Offstrip Casinos: Arizona Charlie's (Both), all the Station casinos, Ellis Island, Terribles.

Windsor-Detroit: Casino Windsor has the best slot club in this market, by far.

The following casinos are not that interested in quarter players. You better be prepared to play at least a dollar at the slots and ten or more at the tables for any comps here: Venetian, Mandalay Bay, Caesars, Bellagio, Alladin, Monte Carlo, Luxor, Mirage, Treasure Island.

Mississippi is also noted for good comps. Once again, the more casinos concentrated in an area, the more competition, the better the comps for the players. Check out Tunica and the Gulf Coast.
