Las Vegas comps or casino bonus extras from an online casino
are the best way to get free rewards just for playing. A lot
of players inside land based casinos like those in Las Vegas
will spend thousands and thousands of dollars not realizing
that the casinos want their business so much that they will
spend money just to keep them coming back. The online
casinos are the same way. Most will offer a 100% or more
sign up bonus to get you in and based on your play, will
reward you with deposit bonuses in addition to other
incentives just to keep you coming back there. Las Vegas
casino comps can get you free rooms, show tickets, and fine
dining at world-class restaurants. Plus, even cash to gamble
with!
So what is the secret? It is very simple to get casino
comps, just sign up for a players card in a land based
casino or a players rewards program with the online casinos.
In Las Vegas they have the sign up desks inside of their
casinos. Generally, it is the line of people looking like
they are trying to get on a ride at Disneyland. So to avoid
the lines, you should go early in the morning or if you will
be going to Las Vegas soon, search for the casino that you
will be staying at over the Internet. More and more land
based casinos are allowing you to sign up for their players
card program online, so take advantage of it. The cards will
be waiting there when you arrive! Signing up for a players
card is a good idea to do in any casino anywhere, so don't
wait for the Vegas trip. Almost all of the newer casinos on
Indian reservations, riverboats and other areas are managed
by former Las Vegas executives who know what loyalty means
to the bottom line, so you can expect to have players card
programs available wherever you go.
The players card is becoming more important as technology
continues to advance. Signing up with one program can allow
you to gain rewards at a number of casinos instead of just
one. At some casinos, technological advancements makes it
possible to withdraw the cash earned on your account using a
pin number at self-serve kiosks that are on the casino
floor. Wagering bonuses earned for slots are also being
placed on your card to be used at slot machines in the
casinos. And when you are at home, you can use your card
number to enter events online with casinos and win more
comps and free goodies. So once you get a card, make sure
you keep up with it! (In the event that you do lose it, the
casino will make a new one for you easily.)
Now for online casinos or poker rooms, their bonuses are
mostly in the form of bonuses deposits, "player point
programs" or free entries to tournaments for big money. This
is a great benefit for gamblers as it gives more
opportunities to win! Records are kept of how often and how
much you gamble with them. And periodically, they will let
you know what you have qualified for. For example, poker
players can use "player points" to enter major online poker
tournaments instead of having to pay entry fees. Chris
Moneymaker proved playing poker can make millions in 2003
and Gregory Paul Raymer did it again in 2004 with both
winning World Series of Poker championships. Both signed up
with a major online poker room and ended up becoming
millionaires! Imagine receiving big money from a tournament
and knowing that you never paid one dime in entry fees!
Giving the player "points", is one of the ways that online
poker rooms comp their players.
From this point on you should start getting more from your
gambling by following these ideas. Print up this page and
keep it with you on your next trip as a reminder. Good
luck!
