    I took two screen shots and they were both scratched for some reason.

    Coin Out- $54,510.68
    Jackpots- $4,745
    Coin In- $60,777.44
    Est Slot W/L- $ -1,521.76

    Table Games- $0

    Total Est Loss- $ -1,521.76
    (Minus sign is there. Not sure why the screenshot looks like that on the forum but not on my phone)

    OK. Either way, the W/L number is off by $3,000. Or maybe the jackpots number is - I expect the Coin Out and Coin in numbers are correct. Add up your W-2s - if they add up to $4,745, then your W/L number is wrong. If they add up to $7,745, then your jackpots number is wrong and your W/L is correct.

    In your post for my coin in number you had 63777, but it's 60,777 so maybe that's where that $3k is?

    Math is correct with the $60,777 number.

    So it looks like 2.5% I think... Whats considered a good percentage? Bad percentage? I'm curious because I literally know nothing other than sticking my money in a slot and hoping I win...

    Anything theo or less is excellent. Depends on what slots you play but figure 10% - 12% theo, up to 15% for some pennies. If I cluster charted most of my trips, most of them would fall in the 15% - 18% loss range, with one winning trip ($12k handpay) and a few in the mid-single digits % (multiple smaller handpays).

    Oh ok. Yeah. It's mostly pennies, with 5 cent, 10 cent, 25 cent, $1, and $5 thrown in. My May trip was mostly $1. I had a good 4 to 5 bonuses on Diamond Queen. It's probably the only reason my numbers are looking good.

    Wow, my numbers are peanuts lol. I have no idea how to calculate what my theo should be, but they offered me 4 nights in a Terrace Studio fountain view over MLK weekend? No food or freeplay.

    Identity Platinum,
    Your numbers look pretty good to me. That would be a trip where I'm not too choked haha. I'd consider that decent play for my money. Terrace studio is my second favourite room. The first is the suite, but honestly it's really close for me. I don't need all the extra space and I still have the bathroom I like.

    Is it your first offer? You may get free food and freeplay after your next trip? I never seem to use up the free food, even though it's nice to have and I blow my freeplay in a couple minutes betting on something I normally wouldn't, if I'm smart and use it early. Otherwise I end up using it waiting for a drink. :D Not the end of the world, but hopefully it goes up for you.

    Welcome to the board!!!

    Thanks! I've been a dirty lurker for a while but love reading the posts. I usually get 2 nights, but this was the first year I went twice with a decent bankroll and luck, lol.

    Depending on the denomination of slots you’re playing....for pennies I’d say roughly 10% of your coin-in is your Theo. Then about 30% of that number should be roughly your comp value. Those numbers I try to keep on the conservative side so as not to get hopes up. It’s just a rough estimate.

    Are your numbers for a single triple or multiple?

    Yeah I agree, use 10% of coin-in as a conservative estimate of theo on slots.

    So $2,300 in theo, and about $690 in comp value. You didn't say how many nights or days your play covered - did you stay there, or walk-through?

    A Terrace Studio Fountain View retails for about $250, figure the casino's paying about $180 for it, maybe more on weekends. So 4 nights adds up to $720 or more.

    Maintain that amount of total coin-in over the 4 nights of your next stay and you should be all set and get some FP and dining credit on subsequent offers.

    My last trip was VERY lucky. I'm thrilled at 4 nights!

    Thank you that is super helpful! That was for 2 trips, both 4 nights/5 days. I stayed at Cosmo and most of my play was concentrated there. My first trip I made Sterling and I was there on 2 free 2 casino rate. The second one I was there on 2 free the sterling night and 1 casino rate.

    Oh OK. If your $23k coin in was split evenly over the 2 trips, then that is a very good offer you got. If you average $23k over 8 nights, it's less than $3k a night, and that's low for Cosmo. Unless you were playing something with a crazy high theo.

    If you played more on the 2nd trip than the 1st, it makes more sense.

    Definitely played more on the 2nd trip....I think I was sitting at a little less than 7k coin in after the first trip.

    $16k over 4 nights on the 2nd trip would pretty much line up perfectly with the offer you got. Do that level on the next trip and you'll probably get a little FP & Dining Credit thrown in on the next offer.
