How to efficiently cash in and cash out.

**chang04133** · 03-13-2013, 01:26 PM

I obviously do not want to get many CTR as filling of it will make me to reveal my identity to casino.
But without doing it, its going to be hard for me to convert chips effectively to cashes or vice versa.
For example, if my BR is 50k and is going to travel, I can't pocket different casino chips, which is Current Asset, but not CASH.
Any suggestions?

Pocket chips as you play, then cash them all out at the end. Have an inventory of chips at the place you're playing.

I like the stripper tactic as in the movie 21. We all should have a stable of strippers to lend a hand!

Has anyone ever tried the Uston tactic of using "big name" casino chips (Caesars, Bellagio, etc) in smaller grind joints ("Im out of cash, but I have 10k in Caesars chips; can I use em if I get stuck here?") ? This might be a different way of cashing in those 500 and 1k chips "under the radar".

In the "old" days we used to do this quite a bit but I don't think it's allowed now though....MM

It really bums me out sometimes that I missed the "golden years" of AP. Ive read about it, heard about it, but never got to experience all the fun of the "old" Vegas.
On the other hand, Ive always wished I had been around to go to Woodstock, then I talk to people who were there and hear it was 3 days of mud, no toilets, and being hungry and broke 2 miles from the stage.
But you answered my question, MM. I figured it wasnt allowed now

It can sometimes be done at properties in Vegas that have common ownership but usually it's a convenience offered to very large players. And it isn't as useful for cash out purposes as you'd hope.

Philly, keep in mind that the good old days of AP might have also included back room bone breaking and the like.

Not to mention that Wayne Newton was the top show in town, and you couldn't get a decent steak after 10PM.
But they did have three quarter pound hotdogs for a buck.

You mean the golden years of card counting. The golden age of AP is upon us. There have never been so many opportunities with such huge advantages as there are today.

yup and a lot of mystery about it & that's a good thing.
also a good thing is the stuff we learned about card counting is applicable.
