I'm not sure I fully understand Harry's post about Reno.
I typically travel to Reno once a month and play at the Atlantis for 3 days. (I play elsewhere for 3 or 4 days on quarter machines, no comps.) I get the Atlantis rooms comped (at present--may be eliminated soon) and play $1 single line positive ev vp. I receive comp points at .22 to .17 when not multiplied to 2X, 3X or 4X, which can be converted to free play on a 50% basis. I always have enough points for meals. My coin in is typically $20,000 to $25,000 a day.
I do not play at any Harrah's casino and their best game in Reno appears to be full pay JOB.
Does your post indicate that I would be better or as well off at Reno Harrah's? There are other considerations such as if I no longer receive room comps at Atlantis, switching my positive quarter play to 4 days at Harrah's or spending all 7days at Harrah's.
