I am just getting back into blackjack and am looking for ways to build by bankroll back up as quickly as possible, while still having a reasonable ROR. One important aspect of this is to keep expenses to a minimum. I was wondering what experience anyone has had using my Vegas, Binions, or Wynn casino apps to get free rooms and meals. Are they worth the time and effort, or do they take too long to get enough points for a free room? I also like to use the American Casino Guide and Las Vegas Advisor coupons for free play, match play, meals etc. Are there any other publications/websites that have coupons like these? What other tips do you use to lower expenses on a week long trip to Vegas? I was also thinking I night try and hit Laughlin for a few days, playing VP rated (as well as blackjack in other stores) to try and get discounted/free air to Laughlin and save expenses in the future. I have heard that Riverside and Harrah's both offer flight programs. Do any of the other Laughlin casinos also? According to VPfree2, Auquarius has the best VP, but Riverside has some playable machines if (this is the if I am asking about) the comp flight and room are easy enough to qualify for.
