My Bellagio host has left the industry (per LinkedIn, she is a claims adjuster now), and I am hoping to get recommendations for a new host. I have a room comp for my upcoming trip which was provided by Johnny Florentino, the host on duty at the time I called MLife to reserve my room. I would call back and ask to speak to Mr. Florentino, but upon an internet search, it sounds like he typically hosts much higher level players than I. I'm looking for a host to whom I can introduce myself in advance of my trip and begin developing a relationship. I play primarily blackjack. I have history of playing $100 to $200 per hand at Bellagio and Mirage, and plan to bring $15k front money (which will all be at risk) and bet on average $200 per hand during my upcoming trip, depending on my luck (if I have bad luck, may average $150 or so until my bankroll runs out). Does anyone have a host that would be a good fit for me? Feel free to reply here or PM me. Thanks in advance! (I just realized I accidentally posted this in the Casino Gaming section, not the Comps section. I guess I shouldn't have had that beer this evening!)
Johnny is the host for all my $100k+ CL friends and they think he is awesome. I just sent you a message for a great host at your level at Bellagio.
Shifter, been about a decade since I've been to bellagio looking to go back. Steve Jackson was my host. Can't remember much about him. If you know him what do you think about him. My play is above the 100k level. Maybe I should give JF a try.
My play is at the low black chip level. I used Steve Jackson after my previous host left. He was just the one who happened to be around when I visited the host office. I used him for a couple of trips but he needed far too much chasing. Perhaps he is better with higher level players but I would go with another host.
