Can I get comps at a local casino?

Just in case you are a newbie to the world of land-based casinos, comps are free rewards that are given to casino players for playing at the casino. The amount of the comp is based upon length of play, money won and lost, as well as how much money is played. Comps can be used for a variety of items such as, meals, entertainment, spa services, and in some cases free or reduced rates on rooms. The first thing players should do upon entering a casino is to find out what their comp system is as well as obtain a player's card. Casinos have special staff members whose whole purpose is to treat players right. If you are a high limits player or table game player such as poker or craps, you will be dealing with a personal host and sometimes pit personnel. They will keep track of your play so you are certain to receive appropriate comps. Casinos provide comps as an incentive to stay long and play long. Contrary to popular belief, they love winners. Winners are their top promoters.

Are land-based casinos safe?

Land based casinos are indeed safe. Many even equate casino security to that of airports. In fact, they are superior and the only time you have to take off your shoes is when you retire to your luxurious hotel suite. Due to very strict gaming regulations world-wide, not only are casino operators responsible for keeping a careful eye on their guests, but regulatory commissions are also keeping a close eye on those who keep a close eye on you. It is truly a comfort to know that your best interest and safety is at the centre of a quality gaming experience.

How much can I win at a land based casino?

There is really no minimum or maximum win. It comes down to you determining how much you can wager. The more you play, the greater your chances of winning big. It will also help to increase up those valuable comps and future offers from the casino. Sometimes it all comes down to luck being on your side. It is always important to establish how big your bankroll is and then to stick with it. Whether you are planning a special getaway for yourself or for friends and loved ones, land based casinos provide hours of memorable experiences.
