Victor,
You are starting out right, call the casino, and ask for a "host". Explain to the host that you would to give their casino a try, tell them what games you play and ask how much play (time and amount of average bet) they require for a room comp , food comp and, room and food comp. Call several casinos, you will be surprized to see the difference. Most casinos will comp about 15% or your auctial losses and if you win, about 10% of what they figure you should have lost. No need to say you plan to spend $2,500. (Do you really plan to loose? IF so why go? Don't you plan to WIN? LOL) You don't have to spend or lose anything to get comped, it is all based on the amount of your bet and time you play. Each casino is different so call several. I have not paid for a room or meal in vegas in over 15 years. (atleast not at the check in, but boy have I paid for them on the tables) One word of advise DON'T INCREASE YOUR BET SIZE TO GET A COMP!!! If you play $5 a hand don't increase it to $10 or $25 just to get a $10.00 meal. But do ask what your $5.00 bet will get you.Good luck and Don't "Plan to spend" anything". plan to win, but realize you might loose.
