Default Re: let\'s get the facts straight: poker makes money

On a completely side note, this thread definitely shows the importance of regular poker players use of the players card at not only the poker room, but in the pits, sportsbook and slots as well. If management sees the regular players are gambling outside the poker room, it significantly increases the inherent value of the room.

Best I can tell, the casinos have little clue you even exist as a poker player. I get the feeling the computers that run the comps when you clock in/out at Harrah's/Bally's/etc are completely disconnected from any other system. There's no sign the corporation knows you exist if you don't use your card elsewhere. Which means, they won't know "this is primarily a poker player, but lookee at all the VP action we get from him, too." But I could be wrong about that. I keep hearing how incredibly sophisticated Harrah's systems are for tracking players--I just ain't seen any sign of it.
