    I think you are correct. I would estimate that you should receive about double that number of TC. Most likely, the information hasn't been entered in the system yet. Mlife is notorious for correcting up and down well after the fact. A week and a half ago, over 200,000 TC suddenly appeared on my account. Give it a couple weeks and see if the system catches up with you

    i agree , but due to there computers being trouble all nite ill take drive over tommorrow to see if i can get an accurate acount,i think if i wait to long and if its not updated they will tell me to go ------------- my self.

    ill check the mlife on line in the morning and see if its updated. but they where doing alot of hand slips all nite and losing track of them .it remind me of the whos on first skit:thumbsup:

    I've always wondered if the Tier Credit to Express Comp ratio is the same for tables as it is for slots. If it is, and you earned exactly $10.00 in Express Comps, the following Tier Credits should have been earned for the following tiers:

    Sapphire: 10,000
    Pearl: 9,090
    Gold: 8,333
    Platinum: 7,692
    Noir: 7,142

    Once again, the above numbers only apply if the Tier Credit to Express Comp ratio is the same for both table games as well as machines and if the accelerated earning rates apply to table games as well.

    I think your TC numbers are right, at least they correspond with what I received last trip which was about 22 TCs/hr * avg bet. You got around 20 based on the rating you estimated.

    I don't know about the EC number. My theo on BJ came to a little over 50% of my average bet/hr. In your case that would be a theo of about $75. If you use 40% of theo for comps that's $30 so $10 in EC is much more than the 5-7% they've said. But their numbers always seem to be confusing.

    Did you ask what you were rated or see a host and let them know and ask them to comp something off room charges or room rate? Seems like $5k losses, if recorded right, would be meaningful enough in 1.5 hours of play?

    I was basing my conclusions off the EC number. At BJ, ten bucks is high for earning 3000 TC

    I love Mandalay Bay, but their system is always slow/down. They messed up my tier credits last time I went. Best part was the computers were all down, and it was during a Microsoft convention.

    Yikes! If my "normal" night involved losing two-thirds of the hands played, I would look for a new hobby :faint:

    Theo is based on overall AVERAGE or STATISTICAL.

    As he said, sometimes he earns $25,000. That is agains the theo, right?

    I agree, the bottom line is what you walk away with. But I also wouldn't be so dismissive of these results, especially if its not an uncommon loss. And I'm not talking about the amount. I lose more than that in an hour and a half (hell, when I lose 5k, it usually happens in twenty minutes of bad play). But to lose 5k in an hour and a half with an average bet of $100 is downright scary. You probably played 90 hands in that time, considering your description of players jumping in and out. So that means you would have lost between 60 and 70 of those 90 hands. Ouch! That is some terrible variance

    Here is hoping your run like the one originally described, will be far apart and few! :beer:

    Really? I'd think losing only $5k when you're averaging $1,300,618 per hand is remarkably good, basically even. :poke:
