Good point, although I don't think it is very "random" based on my data.

At many of the higher end joints, as I wrote above, 2k or less is very unlikely to trigger an inquiry in my experience. (Roughly 100 cashouts at this level in 2016 with zero inquiries.) However, the cashiers are empowered to verify they are transacting with a patron if they feel like it, and so it could happen at any time. Presumably if you look like a poser or a thug, or if it's a break-in cashier, or the supervisor is hovering over their shoulder, or it's dead quiet on day shift... your chances go up. IME the AP act cannot stop after leaving the blackjack table if you need to move large chips back into USD.

All of the above, 2k or less at bigger joints. All bets are off at higher amounts, mid-tier and lower joints, or if you look like you're 17.
