    Absolutely

    but if I were to ever accept that kind of job; I'd definitely be a double agent. All trustworthy Senior APs will get the run down of that casino and all their tactics!

    I work in casinos. In various Canadian jurisdictions, gaming, which is controlled by the provinces, offers registered charities the opportunity to fund raise by staffing the cash cage as well as the count rooms. Two or three times a year (and my wife far more frequently) I work in the games cash cage. I've been gm, banker, cashier, and once as a chip runner. The urban casinos, for charity distribution purposes, pool profits, distributing profits to the charities on a quarterly basis. Charity portion (fir a 2 day event) average about $1500 per position per shift. Translates to 60k plus per event for the charities.

    There is definite humour value working in the cash cage from a stores that no longer welcome your playing company.

    Wow! Good man. We would have our own inside AP. Just like Donnie Brasco. Well worth a picture on the wall in Barona casino.

    So I looked up this Barona Casino (never been to California) and the first thing that struck out to me was this erroneous version of "Craps". Card Style Craps?? That's equivalent to a csm

    Casanova, Barona casino, also has the Blackjack Hall Of Fame, a room with pictures and names of its members.

    That's nice, I wonder if they'll welcome an individual to come in and play who has his picture on that wall; and not on a csm table either. Just not understanding Californias' regulation on dice games. Guess they make up for it in other ways

    Luckily for your wife, she was able to get you to sign up to work for the charity events. Otherwise she would have been uncomfortable when a few coworkers of hers saw security dragging your ass to the door, and said isn't that your husband? With the response I never seen him before.

    -at 1 backoff where I was told I wasn't allowed into the casino, I said I volunteered - no prob was the response. I simply walk into the casino. For concerts, I simply call up if there is an event I want to go to, and I get temporary dispensation.

    -when I'm GM, I have access to the software system. If I want, I have all the names of all the staff in all if the positions on duty for that shift. Possibly more. I never took advantage of it, other than finding a plethora of names.

    -the wife and I have worked the same casino, but have usually worked different shifts.

    Many years ago I considered work in a casino as a dealer, the thought crossed my mind when I was younger but I ended up going in other directions earlier in life. I had relatives in Vegas and would have been juiced right in. As a kid seeing Vegas for the first time (at about 11 years old), the lights, the glitz, the tits, I was thinking, "Fuck yeah, I could get used to this!" Perhaps it's just as well...

    They're making more money off of CSM's then most here are off of shoe and pitch games.

    If people were to just stop playing tables with CSMs then they’d disappear but that will never happen unfortunately.
