Do any Bellagio or Mirage comp?

[djack]

Going to Vegas in a couple weeks for the first time. I generally play 15/30 or 20/40, so I guess that means Mirage or Bellagio. I may also try some NL, as I hear those games are soft (they are other places). I don't know where I can play NL though.

Do any of the poker rooms comp? Will I get a free meal? Do I need to get a comp card like at other casinos?

At the Mirage, talk to the guy in the little window to the right of the cashier. At the Bellagio ask the floor who to talk to. You can get a food coupon in the $15 range. Just tell them how long you've been playing. Also, there are certain times that correspond with shift changes that are best to ask. They probably expect at least 8 hours play. Don't beg, be cool, and you get free casino buffet. I don't think these places offer a casino card.

Yeah I asked for one and they gave it to me at the mirage...of course I asked after I'd already gone to the buffet so it went unused because we didn't go back the next day.

Doh.

I'm not too familiar with comps at either of these places except that you have to ask the floor or the host and tell them how long you're been playing.

But the Imperial Palace gives something like 3.00/ hour and the Orleans gives 1.50/hour for 4 or 5 hours, then .75 till you hit 9 hours. I still have like 50 bucks in comps over there [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I got a food comp at the Mirage once, not sure about the Bellagio. But if you plan to play a lot at the Bellagio be sure to get rated.

Tell the floor you want to be rated. They will fill out a card and everytime you play check in and out with a floor person. The value of this is that you'll be able to stay at the Bellagio the next visit at their Poker rate which is substanstially less than the regular rate.

I just booked at the Poker rate and it was $129 for week days and $199 for weekends which imo is a bargain for the Bellagio.
