    Seldom discussed topic

    I met this problem recently.

    Here is Cambodia a dirt poor place. There are homeless scums in casinos itself eyeing your wins. People have been shot for 4K USD.

    Now at a table I frequent I spot particular people eyeing me, my wins and my bag literally.

    How will you deal with such people

    It's not a seldom discussed topic. Always protect your bankroll in a public place. Do not always follow the same patterns in and out of a casino. I don't know about Cambodia, but if you are patient, in U.S. you can ask security to accompany to your vehicle. Always be aware of your surroundings. Don't flash large winnings. Be aware of who is around you when you leave the cashier's cage. This is just good common sense.

    I’ve played at that casino in downtown Phnom Penh. It seemed pretty safe to me, and I was playing for fairly high stakes. Where did you feel threatened?

    If you really feel uncomfortable ask security to escort you to where you want to go.

    Naga is first class casino in phnom. I am in second class in sihanoukville. And sometimes these bums talk to security or drivers too. They may be in it too.

    Sounds like an episode of The A-Team where a rouge casino floor supervisor alerted a gang of thieves who would then rob the winners in the dessert after they left.

    Actually ,

    Some other casinos the security are the thieves.

    But the one I am currently at it seems since they are khmers they are only talking. The group of about five bums are merely fishing info from the guards

    I heard a story from a high rolling ploppy that he was robbed after leaving Atlantis in the Bahamas. Someone inside was in cahoots with a taxi driver, who took the guy for a ride to the middle of nowhere and robbed him.

    I have never seen a supervisor in a heavy layer of Dior Blush Charnelle 459, but I'll keep an eye open for that sort of makeup.

    However, at the risk of blaming the victim: if you bring confections, sorbets or cakes into the casino, you should expect someone will try to take them. I quit bringing key lime pie to the table after several were stolen.
