I can buy that if both players have wagered the same amount (and if

That would never happen at the Ogden Inn.

Right you are, Thomas! What would I care how you got your points? If
you gamble enought to obtain 10,000 points, I'm really not going to
care what your daily average play was in order to get the points, or
when you gambled. Points are points, so off to the comped dinner for
you!

Of course I would care. If I could get those 10,000 by investing in
only 1 room, 1 day of comped dinners, etc., why shouldn't value those
more than the guy where I have to "invest" in 4 or more of each?

But once again, I'm talking about a guy who puts 10.000 points on his
card in two days or 14.000 in three. In the first case, he has stayed
two nights. In the second, he has also stayed two nights, but also
gambled prior to his departure. Why should the casino prefer the first
scenario ?
