I disagree. The house edge is changed when your bets are supplimented by complimentary promo chips and matchplays. Whilst the odds of winning or losing remain the same the payout ratio changes, which changes the advantage.
No, it's not right in principle. Keep in mind that if your tip bet loses, that is also deducted from your win/loss, so there is no "unfair" or even disparate treatment. You are the person betting that tip, and it is considered no differently from anything else you bet.
