Re: So I saw the new poker room at the MGM today

4) The poker room is stocked with RFDI chips, which means they are investing heavily in the supporting technology to develop next-step chip tracking techniques. One of the options commonly discussed is providing comps based on betting patturns instead of time. That would of course be a huge advancement for poker players, we would no longer be the bottom of the comp barrel.

Huh? Whether you're tight-passive or loose-aggressive doesn't really have much effect on the casino's bottom line. I wouldn't expect RFID to have any effect on poker comps. Wynn may choose to have better comps across the board for marketing reasons, but I don't see any reason for them to comp maniacs more than rocks (or vice versa).
