HET Associated Accounts - playing with spouse's card

#1

Last Summer HET sent me info on "Associated Accounts".
I too was skeptical and hubby and I never had our accounts
"associated". For more info go to:

The only benefit that I can see from this is that it would give
each other access to the other's Rewards Credits.

Most casinos these days do not even offer joint accounts. Most want each
player to have their own account number, although some casinos will "link"
accounts of spouses. It is usually better to not let a casino link your
accounts, but sometimes this happens without your knowledge.

I witnessed a prolonged argument this past summer at Harvey's Tahoe
where the male blackjack player insisted on having his wife's play
combined with his (they were playing at the same table) and put on his
card. The floor person told him it was required (I believe he claimed
legally; I was at the next table so I don't have all the details) that
he rate her on her card. The players argument was that it is
all "his" money because "he's the one who earns it".
