Spot-on AP86.
Not only are they dissing VP in general, and in favor of their beloved slotees. We need to be very careful
about bitching at them because it would identify yourself as one of the AP,s that they would like to get rid of. And as has been done in the past, banned players can end up on a sheit list that is distributed to other Indian casinos.

True, our enjoyment would fade, but then I guess I would just have to buy or lease a couple of his/her Benz Roadsters every couple of years. Hmmmmmm. No room to make my one car garage into 3.

Complaining to a casino about poor pay tables automatically gets you pegged as an AP by the casino? And this can lead to being banned from a casino AND other casinos that you may take your patronage to?

Watch out olds, you've stated here in the past about your discussions with casino executives about their pay tables.

In times like this I think back to a saying attributed to Susan Powter, and it goes like this: "STOP THE INSANITY!"

Who knows how the bean counters react on different stuff and at different casinos. I have always found the employees I have talked to friendly and willing to listen. They don’t always do what I ask, but are great about calling someone to come fix or replace a sticking or missing button. I guess by now they know who I am. I give them plenty of kudos too. I suspect they are used to my Marathon sessions since more often than not when available, they will upgrade me to a nice suite which goes for big bucks there. That’s pretty good since my average session is 15,000 coin and at 2 percent my average take for them is 300 bucks per session long term. Considering the other stuff they throw in, I think For now I have a decent deal.

Pay-tables not an issue where I play, at least not yet. We have probably the best selection in the
Mid-West.
Our issues, as reiterated several times, are points and where were forced to play FP and other comp$.

It varies greatly from casino to casino and even day by day at the same casino. Virtually impossible to tell. I get no spendable points for 98-99 percent VP. I run 1m-2m a year through their machines and still do not get free Friday or Saturday rooms. As to free play, only about 20 bucks 3-5 times a week unless they have bonus days.

I assume MS has fewer rooms than some larger casino hotels, and they all put a premium on comp rooms on the weekends and hold a number for high rollers on weekends, and VP players are not a priority, but 1-2 m coin-in per year is a pretty high threshold to still not rate one. Whew…

I never complain to tribal casinos because I know they wouldn't care lol. I don't do any APing these days anyways, I'm just recreational tbh. Light play for my personal enjoyment.
