Andy posted "The actual cost of the set would vary from bettor to bettor.... ... to which I still basically disagree. The "cost" is what was laid down for the bets ... not for the "cost" of the promotional NCV chips. As you indicated in one of your links, you actually WON on some of your bets.

When I fly to Vegas to attend the CC & GTCC convention, my "cost" was for the airfare ... not the cost of the chips or meals or shows that I purchased while I was there.
