So you’ve both had the daily high 900 times? That’s quite the rabbit hole! Analogous to my post total, sure.
No, both of us have not had the daily high as I personally have never been high a day in my life.

It's difficult because there are so many unknowns and uncertainties.
My comment was directed mainly at the more easily quantifiable things such as the $500 celebration dinner, the $500 folio that is included in the retreat package, and the $600 and $1200 airfare reimbursements.

I'm happy for them to cut easy stuff, if they maintain or improve overall value.

For example, people grumbled when they began requiring $100 minimum action to qualify for the monthly sports bet. I was literally unaffected because I already played more than that to look like a good customer. I'd vote for a still much higher minimum, with a higher free bet amount.

If you don't crack $100 coin in, why bother going to the casino? They're not exactly in the neighborhood. I'm full at about $2,000. Staying until $4,000 is generally a bad idea.

That's online sportsbook. You have to accumulate $100 in bets to receive the bonus amount which varies by tier. House edge in sports runs around 5%, so expected loss would be around $5.

Okay. I think online gambling could be the beginning of the end for me. I won’t even allow myself to create an account.

My thinking exactly FAA. Although I know nothing about them. But If no cash value comps accrue on them, like at your home casino, what would be the point? Maybe they have that I am not sure.

They do have slot clubs, aka loyalty programs.

Here in Nevada, I'm shut out of the online casino scene, but general impression is online casinos are more generous on game paybacks than slot club value.

If you do register an account, be sure to research the signup bonus in advance because you only get one chance at it. This applies to both casinos and sportsbooks online.

Resorts is especially aggressive in its email marketing. This is how the Garden of Eden dissolved.
