Match Play Coupons Add Value to Your Gambling Wagers in Las Vegas

If you're going to Las Vegas for a pleasure trip or a business trip chances are that you may make a wager at the gaming tables. In the long run each casino game is structured to give the House a small edge to win your money. Despite this edge people continue to gamble. Some overcome the house edge and win large sums of money. Others go home or back to their hotel rooms as losers. There is a way that a casino gambler can actually have an edge over the house. A match play coupon gives a savvy gambler that edge.

Match play coupons are used by Las Vegas casinos as an enticement to lure players into the casino. When you check into a hotel in Vegas you are usually given a book that has coupons in it. Some of the coupons may be for a free drink or half-price tickets to a Las Vegas show. Other coupons may be for a free deck of cards or a T-shirt or some other Las Vegas souvenir. Many people wind up throwing away the most valuable coupon of all, the match play coupon.

A match play coupon is used on table games like roulette, craps and blackjack. The coupon comes in different denominations. Some coupons are 2-for-1, three to two, or seven to five. Match play coupons are usually for even money bets like blackjack, the pass line in craps or on red or black in roulette. If you have a $10 match play coupon you put it on the table along with your $10 bet in chips. If you win, you get an extra $10 or $20 total. The casino is matching your bet. Using seven to five as an example, you would bet five dollars and get back seven dollars instead of five. So if you won, you would get your original five dollars back plus seven dollars extra for a total of $12. Of course the casino keeps the coupon. It is only good for one bet.

You are not required to stay and gamble anymore. Just pick up your winnings and walk away. The casino is hoping that you will win. They also hope that you will stay and lose your money. Casinos win in the long run.

Some casinos give large denomination match play coupons of $25 or more. If you are with a friend, you could each bet $25. One player would bet on pass at the craps table. The partner would bet on don't pass. To be really safe you could bet one dollar on the 12 just in case that number comes up. Should the 12 come up, you win $30. You can split the winnings. If 12 doesn't come up then you simply wait until the series is through. You will have won $24 and split it $12 each. Not bad for about a minute's work. Don't be too proud and worry that people will think of you as being cheap for using a coupon. Use the coupon and don't worry what others may think. It is real money that you can lose. Play smartly.

Match play coupons are all over Las Vegas. You find them in in cabs, in welcome packages for conventions, and in packaged tour promotions. You have an advantage if you use them. Go for it.
