Everyone hears of or knows about Casino
Complimentaries or “COMPS” but even some of the
most experienced casino guests are in the dark
about how the casinos arrive at their decision
on how much of a comp any given customer
qualifies for. The casino industry is a business
like any other and the bottom line is
profitability. |
|

What is a “THEORETICAL CASINO WIN?” The casino
does not usually base their comping decisions on
what you may win or lose, but rather on a
theoretical figure of your worth to them in
profitability. How do they calculate this
figure? Quite simply, on your action in the
casino. A very simplified explanation would be
that they take your average bet times the amount
of time you play, calculate in the odds of the
game you play - slots or tables and factor in
the house advantage. This total is called a
“THEORETICAL CASINO WIN.” It is from this figure
that the casino will decide how much you are
allotted in casino complimentaries; allowing a
certain percentage of this Theoretical Casino
Win in “COMPS” keeping in mind there are
variables they will take into consideration, one
of those variables being a players gaming loss,
for instance, so there are exceptions to every
rule but that is basically how it works. |

“CASINO RATES” may also be available. These
reduced rates are offered upon availability to
smaller casino players or to players who want to
establish themselves with the casino. Comps are
available prior to departure for those who
qualify. This is a good introduction to becoming
a “RATED PLAYER.” |
|
| |
And just what is a “RATED PLAYER?” Each
casino has a different Theoretical Win
percentage comping policy and some casinos may
have a “Points”comping policy (based on the
Theoretical Win number) in which you can
accumulate and redeem your points for comps,
merchandise or even cashbacks. It is different
in each casino so it pays to register with the
casino and get a “RATING CARD. ” It is a very
easy procedure – you simply fill out a form with
your name, address and date of birth and the
casino will issue you a rating card. Always make
sure you use it each and every time you play at
a table or slot machine so all the proper comp
credits will accrue. This procedure will allow
you to become a “RATED PLAYER.” Once you have
established yourself with a casino you will more
readily be eligible for future complimentaries. |

This is where “WORLDWIDE CASINO ENTERPRISE LTD”
comes into the picture. If you are a “RATED
PLAYER” we may be able to comp you prior to your
casino holiday. Some of our Casino-Resorts will
offer comps “UP FRONT” which means prior to your
trip – others may offer you a reduced Casino
Rate but if you go in through the casino it is
always an advantage as you may be eligible for
comps prior to your departure, if you qualify.
If you are not a “RATED PLAYER” we can help
establish you at the casino of your choice. |

The world of chips and dice is growing and
changing very rapidly so gaming policies change
and vary with each casino as well. If you need

above gaming policies please feel free to call
us. It would be our pleasure to discuss it with
you at any time. |
