Hosts and Comps question

#1

I’ve been playing VP for over 10 years and have been receiving free stay and related comp offerings for the past 5 years. I now have a host at 4 different Vegas hotels. I have an etiquette/strategy question.

If I am staying at Hotel A, where I have a host and have met my coin in requirements and I decide to go gamble at Hotel B, where I also have a host, but am not staying on a comp, what is the proper etiquette/strategy?

Should I use my player card, thereby announcing to the host at Hotel B that I am willing to gamble at his property without a comp stay? Or should I try and fly under the radar and not use my player card? Of course this tactic goes out the window if I hit a reportable jackpot.

Surely others on here have experience with this situation.
What do you do?

Appreciate any and all feedback

If you are going to play your normal coin in at hotel B then you shouldn’t have a problem. If it were me I’d take the time that I would be playing at hotel B and try a new hotel that you might want to add to your list of playable hotels. You can never have too many good places to play.

Regards

A.P.
