Your accounts are linked. Many joints will rob Peter to pay Paul.
Don't know how easy it is to un-link but people on this board have discussed how couples get separate offers and such.
Might come with disadvantages for non-locals? but if you did really well gambling could have off-set your wife's $3.8K loss.
GVR has been on our list of casinos. Visit 10 times/year and convenient to the Airport. My wife gets similar offers from ~$30K action/day for 2 days on on FP Super DB with ~$3K action on slots.
Our accounts are linked but I don't gamble that much at GVR as end of trip and have had it. Burn out comes quicker and quicker but I do like to watch :-)

She lost $3800...Twice we asked for meals - the first the host said just put it on the hotel bill and we'll cover it at checkout. The second the host gave her $30 food for Tides.

We asked why "internet fee" - the checkout girl said "if you are comped the resort fee (which includes internet) you have to pay for the internet fee (no - we we not using the high speed internet, just the regular)
> WHAT!!! so after rangling she took off the $15 internet fee....now to the comps. She calls down to the host or who is working the desk and he can't comp her play, but can take points from her account....OK....so they clear the bill. We leave happy---
> The next day I check my points and they took the charges from my account ($85) apparently our accounts are linked. So for 30+ hours play, $10- $100 betting you get $30 in food comps at GVR (Great Value Rip-off) and they raid my account without asking.
