Is there any benefit for buying in for $1000 instead of $300 ?
I play at Tunica and it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Re: Buy In
Its all about the buy in but and i do mean but it also has to do with spread. if you go 66 inside every hand then you should get a good rating 5 dollar pass line 60 in odds not so good.
Its funny its the same money but oh well. 30 dollar 6&8 10 dollars on all hard ways 5and 9 25 bucks each every hand sir would you like a free buffet. They know they have you.

Re: Buy In
Most of the casinos are wise to the guys who buy in large - and I'm talking about guys who buy in for $2500 - $10,000 - but don't put the action on the table to justify it. I watched a guy take a $10K marker in the casino once, take the chips and play one hand at $22 inside. Then he walked with the remaining $9978. What he was really doing was cashing a check. Why he didn't do it at the cage is beyond me - unless he didn't have the funds in the bank to cover it.
There's a reason why the pit stands there and watches you until you make that first bet after buying in. If you toss $22 inside out there then you're a $22 bettor until the next time he walks around and updates the cards. If you toss out $320 across then you're a $320 bettor.
Back in the day, when I consciously tried to juke the comps system, I'd buy in for $1000 - $2000, then tell the dealer to "set me up $220 inside but leave it off until I tell you to work it." The pit would note that I bet $220 and walk away. The hand would proceed and, if I saw something promising I might work it for a toss or two. But most often I'd just let it sit there - up and off - until the shooter sevened out. Then I'd tell the dealer to bring it down and we'd start again after I'd had a chance to look at the next shooter.
All of this stuff works to a degree - until you run across a pit critter who is not sloppy or lazy. Then you end up paying the price.
