Next time you are there you just gotta sign up for their players club. We did only because we saw their "Phantom of the Opera" show and there was a coupon on the back of the ticket that entitled us to $50 in free slot play. Well my wife and I each got our $50, cashed out with over $100 each and then headed for the tables, where we added some from our roll, played for three hours and walked away with a tidy profit.
So perhaps Venetian isn't great for AP's (can't speak to that one) but for a BS player, at least that particular day, it was outstanding.
Plus then we got invited back. Not a bad deal for cashing in a $50 slot coupon. And glad I listened to a couple individuals on this board who have coupon fever. Now I see why!
