because you’re bound to stumble upon a % of players like myself that will stick with one place. over a period of time these players will accumulate and you add that steady income to your income to players that bounce around a bit; and at the end of the month you still will be doing better in Dec than you did in Jan.
I think maybe we expect things to happen like we ourselves do it.
I do jump around the casinos a lot – and I do have two or three staples I like better but rarely find the time to go back to. Once I haven’t been back in excess of a year or whatever, I am unlikely to go back.
I jump around because of testing them, my players jump around because of bonuses.
I try to keep players returning to me so while they jump around I can still benefit.
Now there are some casinos with better retention than others, and I will and do doubtlessly give them preferential treatment.
Then there are places that crossmarket heavily and keep you in the loop properly when they do. These can be great – they can offer big bonses to get players in the fold and then circulate them among casinos.
But if you are right all the way, then the majority of programs I have promoted has stolen me blind. I always figured that a percentage of them did – but if your theory is true, then I can count the ones who don’t cheat on one hand.
Needless to say that is very disturbing.
