The chip thing I wonder about. My assumption would be they would escort you to cash-in then escort you out. Again simply because if you are being polite they do not want a scene anymore than you want to make one. To take chips means you will be back to cash them.

Here is one question, suppose they back you off, are you booted from the entire property or just the casino floor? Can you go to the restauraunt attached to the casino to get a sandwich you like?


Yeah, anytime someone is ousted, whether for 12hr or indefinate, we escort them to the Cage for cash out. At our place ousted means ousted. No games, no hotel, no concerts, no fireworks in the parking lot, no buffet, and that extends to all of our properties, not just the one where you ran into trouble. If you get booted for, say, counting, chances are you'll just be booted from BJ but can do any other thing in the casino.

Let me ask this. If a person gets banned, does that mean they can NEVER come back, not even 10 years later?

Depends. Sometimes we put a limit on it, be it 12hr, 24hr, 1 month, 6 month or a year. For indefinate bannings, you are allowed to apply for rescindation after a year, which is looked at by the higher ups and they determine whether or not you can come back. That's for both voluntary and involuntary exclusions. I don't know how corporate casinos handle theirs...

Good points though. Its hard to put STEALING in the same grouping as suspected of card counting BUT I guess if they dont like the color of your shirt, they are the boss, they can ban you for whatever.

If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong. Playing at the casino doesn't make you a pro any more than standing in a garage makes you a car. I prefer to be hated for telling the truth, than loved for telling a lie. No person has yet convinced me that their way of playing roulette is better than my way. Winners have simply formed the habit of doing things roulette AP players don't like to do. I'm sure AP (roulette) worked just fine back in 1923. Gambler's Fallacy is a term coined by unsuccessful gamblers to validate their reasons for losing. 5.26%, so what?......I get taxed everyday. Believe those who are seeking the truth. Doubt those who find it. Don't play/study roulette for a TOTAL of 9 hours in your lifetime and then preach that a person can not do 'well' with it. Also, don't let the '2+2 will never equal 5' crowd bring you down. TRIAL & ERROR guys, I can't say it enough! When you're finished changing, you're finished.

Honestly, I don't know why you're allowed to even post on this forum. You are an infection of ignorance that insults other forum members.

"that insults other forum members" >>> Nice try. I know on EVERY board where the line is so I can tip-toe around. Foul language? I insult nobody and you know it.

You should try and avoid it. From what I've read,
its the only place they can take a straight on pic
of your face, at the cage. Ceilings are low in the
cage and the cameras are in the same location
as they are in a bank.


Don't get blindsided by that thinking. The Cage is a good spot, but facials are possible everywhere. Even if the camera over your table or even the entire pit isn't that great, we can get you from slots, from the restaurant, across the floor from the gift shop, even while your sitting and steaming inside your car. Hell, we've even gotten pics on patrons that had stopped at the gas station down the street. If you can see the casino, assume we can see you.

If you get banned because of card counting or
because they think you can beat one of their
games, its forever.


This is true, although it's usually for that particular game. Get branded as a counter/AP and you can consider your play time over. Feel free to visit us at the buffet, though ;)

I assume you're talking about mrjjj.

I just re-read all of his posts in this thread and have failed to find any post that warranted such a response.

That's because he edited them after I posted the complaint. There are plenty of examples in other threads.

Can they ban you from the non-casino portions of the facility? Sure.

Of course, I'd have to ask why you'd want to continue to patronize them after you got banned.

To cash in your reward points and/or buffet coupon? If they suspect you of cheating, then it is not unreasonable for them to cancel your ill-gotten rewards and coupons.

So just leave.

Understood. Perhaps you should use the quote feature to preserve the things you're complaining about.

LOL...I edited them...yeah...okay. Nothing was edited. My God, the agenda is strong with this guy. Go into the light Keyser and PLEASE stop arguing with me. Stay on your side of the fence and everything will be fine. I'm not asking for much.
