And offered me a deluxe room for two nights in Vegas, covering of all incidentals that I charge to the room and two tickets to the KISS/Mötley Crüe show! 
I wonder if Vince will be a  this time when I meet him?

My casino rep called me last week and offered a round trip to Monte Carlo on a private chartered jet, two weeks at the hotel, with a double suite, all meals charged to the room, $50,000 in free play in the casino, a chartered limosine to tour the French Riviera, and a jet helicopter ride to Paris to see the Moulan Rouge.  TRUTH
You should do that, you'll probably fit in well with the French.

Vince was on Ghost Hunters in Vegas.
Ask him why Frank Sinatra felt up his wife.
That's not quite true, Sinatra felt up me!

I hope you realize casinos make offerings like that to the people they consider their biggest losers.
A casino offers a player a percentage of the theoretical loss they are expecting him to incur.
While some people are indeed able to game the casino comp system, the vast majority end up losing more than they would like, playing to insure their future comps.
Two great books on abusing casino comps are Comp City by Max Rubin, and The Frugal Gambler by Jean Scott. i've used techniques from these books to my advantage for over a decade.
