MGM Mlife question

#1

If one plays heavy at one MGM property, how likely is it to receive free rooms at a different MGM property? The reason I ask this is due to my desire to stay on the strip, but not at a dumpy property. It appears the best VP plays on strip are at the Excalibur, Luxor and Circus Circus. Unfortunately, none of those hotels tickle my fancy (I love that phrase). To be quite honest with you, I could care less about where I stay, but the entourage I run with does care.

I'm already firmly established with Caesars based on my Atlantic City play, but they have no playable VP under $5 in Vegas. And of course, my entourage has an aversion to Caesars properties to which I can understand, when compared with many of the MGM properties.

Any advice here would be great (and I know there are significantly better plays off strip)!

MLife/MGM can be very decent with cross-property offers in LV -- with one important caveat (theo).

You need a decent theo to garner comp offers to other MGM properties where you don't have established play. Odds are, those "best VP plays" you note have very weak theos assigned to them.

My experience, having recorded stays at MGM and Bellagio, with $60k+ one-day coin-in playing 9/6 JB or 8/5 BP, is that my online offers are casino rate. I receive comped room offers for MGM, but not Bellagio.

My experience has been that I receive a quarterly offer good at all MGM Vegas properties. There can be some difference between casinos. For example the Bellagio may offer a room and NYNY may be a suite. Freeplay is consistent between properties but property credits will differ. In additional to the MLife offer, I typically receive a stronger offer from the Casino I played at.
