we stay at several mgm owned properties frequently in comped room and play on real card. so far so good until last trip last day.

mostly playing 6d 25 to 500 x 2 with out much attention

then I got too frisky DD 25 to 300 x 2

we had an unusual run of good luck......

told i was flatbet and that it was only for that casino and that if they saw me trying to raise my bet then it would apply to all mgm properties??? not sure what this means??

does this mean my player card is ok still for next trip back to a different mgm property or do you think the record of the flat bet was recorded on my players card

am i done at all mgm properties?
thanks

There is no way to tell, because you can never be sure any casino employee is telling the truth, or if the truth is even known to him. The answer depends on whether they noted your card or not. Depending on the level of laziness of the employee(s) involved, you may have gotten away unscathed. Or not. Try the card on a shift you don't care about at a MGM property you don't care about and see the pit's reaction, if any.

thanks,
that makes alot of sense
if so we will learn a lesson and not get so greedy at the comped home base casino
and maybe play more aggressively anonymously elsewhere if we feel like it.
at our level the free room and food credit still has some value.....

Beware of MGM long memories. A few years ago when I was using a card for comps, I was flat-bet similarly playing the Vegas DD game. Voila, a couple years later in a different state, after playing using my card I was chased down by a shift boss after cashing chips and told, "no more BJ."
