Gamble big comps will start piling up in no time. Comps are given for free things like hotel rooms, room upgrades, food and beverages. They are given to gamblers to encourage them to keep gambling. Many times the courtesy hosts will directly ask you what sort of comps you prefer. This is your perfect opportunity to be moved to a better room, or possibly a suite, depending on availability. The money you may lose is negligable compared to the cost of a better room or location on the property. Who knows you may even be on a winning streak, better room, and money in your pocket..
If they don't ask, and you feel you have been gambling a long time. Simply ask directly "So, what would a person want to do to get a room upgrade?" They might have a specific gambling "point" system, but most often the hosts have huge leeway in giving whatever comps they want to give. Be nice. You are asking for a favor. Hosts, along with every other casino employee, deal with drunken, cranky people all day, many of whom may have just lost their life savings and are quite unhappy.
