I don't know if RFID is present anywhere else in Macau (anyone?), but the following was taken from an article on Gaming Partners in today's LVRJ:

Gaming Partners also said it reached a deal to supply radio-frequency identification chips to the new Rio and Grand Waldo casinos that Galaxy Resorts plans to open early next year in Macau.

Gaming Partners said the order consists of more than 600,000 RFID-embedded gaming chips, plaques and tokens.


This may be old news to those of you who live in the area, but the rise of RFID in one of the biggest gaming meccas in the world is a frightening prospect for all of us.
