Usually breaks even at best, loses more times than not and sometimes come back with some extra.
Oh, another one "I am getting a free hotel room" and "I am getting free meals from the casino".
It's a 200 mile drive down there, he's got a bed at home, and there is turkey in the fridge.
I'd guess the rooms go for $100 to $200 a night (I dont know). That said only expense the room would cost the casino, apart from lost revenue, for giving it away is cleaning/electricity/pillow mints, lets say $20 total.
The free dinner would have run $25 or so, but probably cost the casino $10 at most (guessing again).
So, he burns $80 worth of gas for what is truely only $30 free. In the mean time he stands to leave $200 or so with the casino which makes up their expense 6 or 7 times over.
