No more Comps from Venetian/Palazzo for Me

The Venetian/Palazzo have decided to end most comps for most players.  Very little  free or discounted rooms, food, shopping or gaming.   No reason now to be a slot member,  No reason to go to their casinos and give them my money.  Too many other  hotels on the strip still want my business.   The low rollers and middle of the road spenders are the life blood of Las Vegas.   We provide the daily steady steam of income that they need.

This may work for the Venetian/Palazzo  with their 10 year agreement with the InterContinetal Hotel group providing them the business class of people they desire.   But what about all the people in the slot club?  Who have shown the willingness to spend their money there.   I think most of the hotels on the strip have been cutting comps to save money.  But I think competition of the hotels will end up keeping the comps going for most places.

But for me, I will not be giving my play or money to the Venetian/Palazzo anymore.  The Mirage or Bellagio or Harrah's still treat me just fine.  I will play where I am wanted and treated  well.  Comps is not the only reason to play in a casino.  But with money tight, players need to get as much bang for their dollar they can.

Something for you to think about when your deciding where to stay and play in Las Vegas
