How do I get a discount suite in Las Vegas?

Anyone know any REAL tricks to get a discounted suite at the Hard Rock in Vegas? I'm going out there in a few weeks and I'm usually able to get discounts through the conferences I attend, but in this case the Hard Rock isn't offering a discount on their Panorama Suites - $599/night + tax and fees. Anyone have any REAL ideas (other than gamble a whole ton until they give you a suite)?

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Call and arrange to transfer 10 million shortly after arrival. Inquire about security both on and off the floor. Show up in a nice ride and go in, tell them who you are and mention you might stay at the next casino up the road so you need to make sure after you transfer the 10 mill that it is portable.

I'm right sure they will comp you a suite. You won't keep it long mind you...

Chris,

You did not actually think you would be getting serious replies here, did you? Best guess probably is our pirate.

try: The Ultimate Guide to Getting Comp'd in Vegas | Free Geekery

Basically explains some ways to comp...it all depends on your gambling practices... and sometimes if you call the hotels directly.... they can pull up your previous past stays (trust me they have your history) and request a discount up front...

If you have American Express Card - call their travel agency and tell them what you want to pay etc, they sometimes can arrange great deals, and you can gets shows etc at time up to 70% off...
