this is why. it may be a small chunk, but it's still a chunk. and if you don't offer it, they will go somewhere that does. which in turn potentially effects their hotel,slot and table game profits.
i'm probably in the minority, but i go purely to play cards, i don't care about the rest. but i also know that i wouldn't stay at a casino that didn't have a poker room. plus i'll spend money at the little convienence stores and resturants whereever i'm playing. |
