    No problem. Don't want to back you into a corner on something. Especially after all the advice/help you've given everyone here. I'll hit you up on my last day there and see what it looks like. We'll all have to buy you a drink when you come by the craps shoot.

    When is the best time or way to contact a host about taking care of backend comps if Im checking out at 6 am. The night before checkout in person (if host is not available just check with a host on duty). or the day of checkout by email to the host. Or is there another method or way I am not mentioning.

    Couple options, if you are done playing for the night before just ask for host on duty or contact your host if they are swing shifters. You can also ask the front desk to leave your folio open when you check out until your host can look at it when they get in. Other option is to just let it hit your card and have your host look at it when they get back from off days or whatever and any comps will be refunded.

    I think just restock with some 21 year olds is just fine make sure they can gamble and drink.

    Hunter, look forward to seeing you and everyone else at the craps night.

    Non related question - do you think other hosts/casino management follow threads/views on message boards like this? If so, do you think it would influence any strategy/decisions?

    Thanks

    Hunter,

    Can reward credits be used to book airfare through Total Rewards Air? For example, if I have 3 travelling in my group and wanted to use my Diamond Asp $750 credit, would I be able to use RC to book airfare for the 3rd person, even if its at 2:1?

    Hope your vacation was relaxing and fun, welcome back. I'm still waiting on a response on my numbers from last trip.

    I'll be coming out for this craps game and will book it as soon as soon hear back from you. I have a few FP offers but didn't want it to get messed up like the other one did.

    Hunter, thanks for taking the time to answer all of our questions. I have a couple that I have not seen answered yet regarding tier credits. How many tier credits are given for sportsbook bets? Is it $5/TC like a slot? Also, how can I find out how many tier credits are earned on table games? I play a lot of $1/2 NL poker, and the dealers say we accumulate 21 TC/hour there. What about craps, for instance? Let's say I'm playing at a $10 table, always taking max odds on the point, and always starting with one unit on the inside numbers? So if the point is 5, I've got $84 on the table after the come out each time. How are tier credits calculated? Solely by the pit boss monitoring play? Do they receive information from the dealers? Does buy-in or cash-out matter? Thanks.

    Could you say a bit more about what could trigger a gaming day outside of a lodging trip?

    I've gone to the Qua spa while staying elsewhere and they ask for your name and look it up in their system. Could that be triggering a 0-play day/trip?
