Free Gambling Or Comps?
April 11th, 2008If you are looking for ways to get some free gambling you might want to look more closely into comps. While they are not really “free gambling” in the strictest sense of the word, they do allow you to get quite a lot of goodies so you can spend more money on gambling.
It is estimated that casinos give out more than $1 billion worth of comps or complimentaries in a year! That comes out to quite a lot of freebies, and they could be anything from free drinks to free meals and even entertainment tickets. Even if you do lose some money while you are gambling, you can still get back more than what you spend because of these comps!
How do you make your money back from these comps, you ask? Well, consider that casinos make a percentage out of every dollar that is bet in the premises. In blackjack for example, the casino makes about 2% out of every dollar. If you bet an average of $5 a hand you can probably lose about $5 for each hour of play. Two complimentary cocktails would normally cost about $5 each so you are already earning twice the amount that you spend. The money you save then can be used for free gambling!
