Saw that, but to me ADT is still worth more than tier status.
"One of these days in your travels, you are going to come across a guy with a nice brand new deck of cards, and this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the Jack of Spades jump out of the deck and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not take this bet, for if you do, as sure as you are standing there, you are going to end up with an ear full of cider."
Generally, Theoretical Win, also known as Theoretical or just Theo, equals (average bet) * (bets per hour) * (hours played) * (assumed house edge) for table games. For machines, it is generally (coin in) * (assumed hold). All of these numbers are from the casino's perspective, so sometimes you can get rated as betting more than your actual average bet, or get rated for play during time when you are actually taking breaks or sitting out. There are other ways to influence this as well, but actual loss is not a factor in Theoretical. ADT is the average of your Theoretical for every day you use your players card. I think this includes any time your card was scanned for any purpose, such as to pay for a buffet or to get into a Diamond Lounge, but I'm not positive about that. Generally I assume if they know I'm there (if my card is scanned at all) then it counts as a "day" in the denominator for calculating my Average Daily Theoretical. The best thing you can do to increase your ADT is not use your card on days when you aren't going to put a significant amount of play on it. Some (not all) casinos use ADT as a major factor in determining what kind of coupons to send you, so eating your "free" buffet might reduce your ADT and cost you $100 in free play next month. Card tier is good for things like free rooms, VIP lines for checkin/cage/buffet, but if you want mail with cash value, ADT is probably more important.Originally Posted by Hsiaodi
