I think it depends on the name. I am sure Caesar's has more than one John Smith and Jose Rodriguez born on the same day. The Asian names complicate it even more- you realize how many Indians are named Singh and Koreans named Kim?
It would make an interesting discrimination case, as some nationalities have a wealth of surnames and others have relatively few.
I'm going to caveat this by stating this data point is particular to a number of Vegas casinos.
I've attempted to get different loyalty cards from Vegas casinos in an attempt to lower the total lifetime win while still getting comps.
In most cases, the casino has your name, your date of birth, address and in many cases a scan of the ID that you used to sign up. The casino's loyalty system is going to show matching name and date of birth. If the casino employee is on the ball, you're not going to be able to get another loyalty card with a different number.
Now, of course, if you look differently in the photo, if there is a variation on spelling of the name, if you are or not already flagged as an AP in the system, if a supervisor isn't called over...your results may vary.
