Sell me on the Venture? I see 10x points on hotels, but they have to be booked through their site. How good is their site? Don't need the 5x airmiles, bc I have Amex Plat Also, how far do their points go?

I outlined the benefits above. It pays for itself with little effort (actually I think you end up ahead in value)

Their points are 100 = $1, so each year you get 10k points, which equals a $100 statement credit.

The current signup bonus is 75k points if you spend $4k in the first 3 months.
