Default Wynn Comp System Details or Other Tips?

I will be visiting the Wynn in Las Vegas later this month. I have neither stayed nor played their previously and would appreciate any tips about the place that others would like to share--particularly information about what level of play garners what comps, etc.

I don't have any answers to your questions, but I do want to bring up another point to consider:

You may want to read up about a recent dispute between Wynn dealers and Wynn management about pooling tips. It may make you want to boycott or massively reward the joint, depending on your political convictions.

All I know is that they'll give you $10 free slot play if you give them an email address when you sign up for a players card and they won't comp you drinks while playing bartop VP.

Earn 50 points playing machines($250 slots or $500 VP) and get two dinner buffets. Thats quite a score for a signup bonus. I played long enough to earn 50 points and quit.

You can do it on a 7-hand video BJ machine (BJ - 1-1). I think that's the cheapest way to earn those points. I've heard people say video roulette, but I think the math works better on the BJ.

Beautiful place to stay. They use RFID chips to track your betting. 2D game is at least $50 min and H17. Cut off about 0.7 deck. I got backed off playing that game on the first day of stay. They also have 6d with 1.5d pen.

Default wynn comps

Not sure about Wynn's comp methods exactly, but I played there for a few hours at light black - on a few different trips - and could not even get a buffet from the pit or hosts. Then got an e mail offer for a suite and used it, but again was told I did not have enough play for a meal. Then got another offer for a suite, used it, and then a third time. Hosts told me suites were putting me into a negative balance, so no meals. Nice suites, though. Blackjack penetration has tanked lately as I understand it.

Got some clear, definite heat there, felt I was about to be backed off, but I rushed out the door. And played several times there since then, always rated, but the heat never reappeared, making me think they did not make an entry in my Red Card computer file the first time they figured me out. Or maybe they tolerate me since I may have a lifetime "losing" record there, aided by some ratholing. Of course, ratholing may be pointless with their RFID chips, since I always cash out totally after sessions.

Personally I think Wynn has better pen on DD than MGM properties.
Wynn does have a higher min though at $50 dollars.

Wynn's very best games are for $500 minimums.

Always check with the latest edition of C B J N

I believe this is true if FLASH is referring to Wynn's DD games. However, Wynn did have a S17 6D game which was $25 at off hours. The penetration also was different from that reported in CBJN.

At $25 a hand, the MGM properties' DD games are probably a better way to go, but I don't think that Wynn is necessarily a waste of time for those betting less than $500 a hand.
