As you allude, other factors besides slot club return on play should dictate where you play. For the .25 (and below) player, there is no currently existing combination of slot club return, mailers, comps, warm wet kisses on the cheek, etc. offered at ANY casino that exceeds the return on FPDW at places like Palms and Stations (where you only get points at rates like one- thirty-sixth of one percent, or roughly 27 cents in comps for every $1000 of coin-in). This means that BY FAR, game selection is still the single most important element. If your habits/proclivities nudge you upward into the $1/$5 denominations, game selection isn’t quite as critical, as just about every game you play at those denoms will be inherently negative EV anyway. Of course, even crawling on bloody hands and knees upward to a, say, 100.1% return (perhaps on 9/6 JOB with a generous slot club, mailers, etc.) will create a better net return than .25 FPDW and such if you are playing $25 a hand–but most of us don’t have the bankroll and/or couldn’t stomach the variance to play that high.

This is an excellent explanation. Ads quite often are so deceptive! Thanks for the info 🙂
