Just returned from Macau. Surprised at the low HA in the casinos. Played in the Venetian, Wynn and Grand Waldo. Stayed in the latter and was surprised at the low prices. For this 4/5 star hotel I paid HKG$550 (US$70) which include breakfast. Since you get 2 breakfast coupons and one of them could be used for dinner instead, it means that you only have to pay for lunch.
Anyway the Grand Waldo has a promotional chip program whereby you get 0.8% cash rebate. I have played with promotional chips before and effectively you get half this face valUe i.e. 0.40%. Since the HA is 0.16% according to the Wizard of Odds the net HA is -0.24%. Did not try this offer as I was busy sightseeing and spending more time at the Wynn and Venetian to gauge what their Comps systems are like.
