Coin in calculation

Would any of you regular V.P. players be kind enough to explain how
coin in is calculated, for the purpose of accumulating Comps / points.
example: Say I play for 4 hours starting with $100 never adding to it.
My winnings varies up and down. I cash out at $100. How do I know
what my coin in total is for that session. Is it only 100 dollars?

Thank You one and all

If you play $.25 video poker at five coins, then you are betting $1.25/hand. If you play 1000 hands, then you bet $1250, and that would be your coin in.

Your coin out is whatever the machine paid you for your hands. Your win (or loss) is the difference between your coin in and your coin out.

Most casinos award slot club points or comp $ based on coin in. If you know the rate of point accumulation and how many points you've earned, you can figure out what your coin in was. If they don't make that information easily available to you, then you need to estimate your coin in from estimating how many hands you play in an hour, multiply that by the number of hours played and the total bet/hand to get your coin in for the session.

At some casinos (Coast properties for instance) slot club points are based on coin out. To figure your coin in there, you take your coin out and subtract your winnings (or add your losses) to figure what your coin in was.

At many casinos, you can get the coin in information from the slot club or from your host. The annual win/loss statement from the casino (which you can request) usually has this information on it as well.
