"I wonder how much the comps are worth after u dump 10k in an hour"
Prior to a couple of weeks ago where I won (YAHOO!!!!!), my last few Vegas trips had me losing $3k to 8k per trip mainly at blackjack but with some craps and roulette as well (prob 4-5k avg loss per trip) and all my expenses were comped, so I figure losing at 10k/hour, you'd pretty much be printing money in terms of comps. As long as you do it consistently, that is - sitting down for one hour of gambling and losing 10k doesn't do much of anything for you in terms of comps.
I knew a real estate developer who routinely lost $50-100k on weekend trips and he basically got unlimited everything at Bellagio - dinner for as many of his friends at whatever restaurant he wanted, as many bottles of Cristal as he wanted, whatever wine he wanted, etc. That stuff would have cost him a fortune if it weren't for his savvy pit losses to get him those comps.
