Clearing Comps, burning time... etc

[Thremp]

For those of us who play poker, but wanna earn some comps... try something else out etc. when no playing poker in the casino. What are the options for +EV games that'll rack up comp points?

Video poker, blackjack and isn't baccarat like so slightly +EV or -EV it almost doesn't matter?

grinding full-pay VP is probably the fastest way to accumulate comps with minimal downside risk. both 9/6 Jacks or Better, and a good multi-deck BJ shoe game have a house edge of about 0.5%, but you can play many more hands per hour at video poker for a lower bet amount which should keep variance under control. also, while many casinos have cash back multiplier days for their slot customers (which includes VP), promotions for table games players are rare, as you probably know already from playing regular poker.

baccarat house edge is a hair above 1%, and doesn't figure into the comp-hustling strategy. only 'advantage' perhaps is that it doesn't actually involve any player decisions when betting.

Agreed. Baccarat is however a great game if you want to play something with a fairly low HA and get completely drunk. There are no decisions to make, so other than your money management skills, getting very drunk becomes +EV.
