With regard to Blackjack in Sydney a player will need to join as a casino member with a minimum of $A25,000 front money which can be deposited into a holding account. Complimentary points of various types are awarded to the player based on average betting levels, participation rate and time at the table. Special coloured chips are used which indicates to the pit that the player is on a VIP program. A VIP player is assigned a host who can also negotiate air fares, accommodation, meals and drinks.

Baccarat and Roulette players can take advantage of another type of VIP program that requires a minimum of $A10,000 in front money and the player must turn over a certain amount of money at the tables within a specified time in order to qualify for a rebate.

There are no programs available for Pontoon.

In summary, it’s best to contact the casino prior to your visit and request a host who will negotiate a package for you. Alternatively, if the VIP programs are not suitable and you still wish to play I suggest requesting a manager’s pass which can be issued for three days subject to an identity check.
