I have 3 nights at Mirage and 5 nights at Wynn...all comped. I'm going to use my Cosmo offer (3nights, $100 food, $405 FP) and make it an eleven night stay. Any tips on stretching a bankroll? I would like to play most of it at Wynn and Cosmo as those are the places I really enjoy. This is my first time at Mirage and it's a comp, courtesy of one of my locals L'auberge -Lake Charles, LA. Thanks!
Wow what a trip!
We did 10 days in May and kinda set loss limits per day.
It's a marathon, not a sprint this time.
Good luck!
This will be the end of September into October. I know if I don't give the usual play my future comps will decrease....and that's ok, as my days of chasing comps are over.
At some point unless you're very lucky Vegas has too many properties to keep up with.
For now I like Wynn because their properties are so fabulous.
Would love to stay at Cosmo or Aria but I'd have to pay to stay there and it's just too easy to go with where my comps are now.
Final word is I enjoy being Diamond at CET.
Oh, and that's another I need to keep up..CET. Thanks for the reminder @clemi. As much as I like Cosmo, I will give them less play and see what happens.
I have no advice to offer.. if I stayed 11 days in Vegas.. I would blow through my bankroll, hit my daily ATM limit, and come home to a VERY angry husband and my accounts empty :(
Haha MNvegasgal I hear you on that!
RiverSong you're a seasoned veteran and I'm sure you'll have a blast in Vegas. Enjoy your fabulous comps and don't worry about the play you need to give these properties.
You'll be fine and Vegas will love you no matter where you play :)
RiverSong, have a fabulous trip. Are you considering doing some non casino stuff such as side trips or shows? That might take some pressure off the BR.
Hi @emmas, no shows....maybe a side trip. My cousin's brother has a timeshare and will be spending her birthday in Vegas, (1st time) haven't seen her in over 30 years, so we'll hook up. My Aunt (81) is coming too. However, they don't know their dates yet and obviously don't plan way ahead like I do. Go figure!
Take out titos after a big win put in some fresh $. Save tito in billfold til next morning then cash them out. Repeat process. I try to usually do my best on this and surprised by amount I have in titos the next morning.
I'm telling ya, $200 a day and cycle it through is getting me Cosmo Purple Envelope Sun-Thursday in a City Room. $30 a night to upgrade to a Terrace Studio. $50 if you want a view. No need to go crazy as the free play and food is probably worth less than what you gambled to get it. Stretch it out!
@RiverSong like @dvandentop I will also take a Tito of over $50 and put in my purse and let them build up. You do get surprised at what it all adds up to sometime. Best of luck in planning your trip!!!Quote:

Nice long upcoming trip you have in Vegas! I would play the most at the property you want the best future offers from. Sounds like the Wynn has treated you well over the years so I would save most of bankroll for that casino. I love the Wynn/Encore too :)
Sorry I have no advice how to make your BR last that long I'm a complete degenerate lol. But I did want to say that I hope you have a nice long relaxing trip with lots of wins that help you to just keep on playing.

Sounds like Mirage is the one you're least interested in continuing to chase the comps. So...........take one day while staying there and do not play at all. Take in some of the art exhibits, or tour the mob museum, or any one of the many other places available. Have you ever done the dam tour?? The rest of the time at Mirage just do some low rolling and relax. I know.......hard to do!!! I feel your pain[emoji16]. Must be tough to have to spend eleven days in Vegas!!! Good luck!

My humble opinion is as follows. After this trip I have decided that 4 nights at Cosmo is too much, and the weekends are too crazy for me. I love the room, but I would consider keeping the bulk of your play at Wynn as that is your favorite, and like you say, see what happens at Cosmo if you cut back. I've done some 9-10 day trips, and there are usually lots of losing days so it's hard to maintain. Just enjoy Mirage and low roll there.
You will have a blast I am sure!
mirage slot floor has been horrible to many people i know lately i would tread lightly there
I did nine days for the April meet and to my surprise was pretty disciplined lol.. What I did was on the two HP I had..that money went right into the safe and I went back to my daily limit..seemed to work out well.
I think Aria has really loosened up their slot floor lately. Maybe its just me. Also I found Bellagio pretty loose last visit..Wynn I found tight. I almost never win at Cosmo so don't play there often. I did get quite a few bonuses at Venetian but no big pays. Monte Carlo's HL room has a lot of older games I did OK on.Quote:
