A lot of casino execs today don't understand the significance of coin-in, they are hotel execs, they don't understand casinos. Harrah's in particular rates players by time on the machine, so this gambler you mentioned was probably just doing a freeplay offer while minimizing the hit to trip average, by getting a great play rating for playing bad and putting in time on a machine. So this gambler loses $5/hour gambling, but obviously the 7-stars card is worth a lot more than that, plus free drinks plus promos at non-Harrah's casinos just for flashing a 7-stars card. "Advantage gambling" is kind of a misnomer, the true advantage play is to gamble as little as possible while hustling as many benefits as possible. That's the mistake casinos are making, the customer is incentivized to gamble as little as possible and instead spend most of their time consuming free handouts at the expense of the casino.
