As I said, at most casinos you have 30 days to pay. If you don't pay after 30 days, they will call you. They will usually call you first before they send the marker to your bank. They will ask you if you want them to cash the marker or if you want to pay them another way.

Some people will tell the casino to send the marker to their bank if they have the money in their account and that was the account they were going to pay the money out of any way.

Comps don't have anything to do with it. The casinos keep track of your play. If I take out a $10,000 marker and I only lose $5,000, the casino is not going to think I lost $10,000. Even if I leave Las Vegas owing the casino $10,000, they will still know that I only lost $5,000. The way you pay them back will not have any effect on your comps. When the 30 days is up, you can pay them cash, you can write them a check, or you can tell them to deposit your marker. The casino is fine with any of those methods. You won't get better comps by having them deposit your marker, rather than by writing them a check out of another account or paying them cash.
