Do Casinos Punish Lucky Players?

Casinos don't punish the computer does :slight_smile:
Sorry, had to say it.

After a month of being "bounced around", I did get it straigtened out.

And the computer actually has barred me from the casino.

But not my host.

The back-to-back winning trips resulted in a theretical loss that was
overly offset by the cost of my comped room, plus limited food and
beverage. It's a bit unfair, because weekend room (not a suite, by
the way) prices are so inflated they deplete a comp balance quickly.
Anyway, after both trips the computer deleted sending me mail offers.
I guess it is intended to prevent a guest and host from "teaming up"
and abusing the casino with too many comps. My host was still not
sure how to fix that in the system. But I am welcome back.

Just not by the computer.

See, I told you so - casinos punish lucky players.
