According to a news release, Resorts World "will be the first Las Vegas casino where consumers can utilize a digital login and cashless wagering experience at both slots and table games."
Read the article. It seems like this is an intermediary step before truly cashless.
IE. Yeah they take cash.

and skip the middle man called ATM
Quote:Play+ will allow guests to connect to external funding sources like a bank account, credit, debit or PayPal account, and load their GamingPlay wallet. This solution will offer guests the flexibility to transfer funds in and out of their GamingPlay wallet and linked Play + account and will provide the convenience of transactions without leaving their seat or standing in lines.
So to summarize, (1) anybody who is on a losing streak will have a much easier time pissing away the rent money and (2) hackers will now have a new target that could allow them to drain someone's bank account.
Quote: TDVegasGotta love a casino executive who doesn’t even flinch at the idea that gambling can be impulsive and maybe there’s going to be a lot of people out there who find it very easy to wave their phone for cash on their last….last….last…double down or split. Good grief.
I don’t think I’m a bad person. But I believe in individual responsibility. If there is a way to make a transaction easier, I don’t believe it is up to the business entity (casino) to be responsible for potential bad decisions of customers.

So as MD, is it your opinion that all drug addictions are a matter of individual responsibility? I'm not trying to be snarky or anything, just curious.

It would be my opinion that most are. I would never say all.

In general, I am for legalization of most controlled substances. My ‘doctor’ part does not override my ‘individual responsibility’ feelings. Change the word ‘all’ to ‘the majority’.
Maybe only allow the good drugs for those who can readily afford them ... like cocaine.
I'm cool with celebrities snorting up a storm but not crackheads in the hood out robbin' and stealin'.

Cash is Trash

Not sure how to buy-in for $28,800 at a craps table with this. Did I win that much on a slot machine or was it free play sent to my phone?

What good is a branded Play+ Card if you get thrown out of the casino? You'll have to go to an ATM across the street to get your money out. This card won't work at differently branded casinos.

Guess I'll have to go to a 7-11 and put $100 cash on the card.

While each program is different, the standard Play+ program allows your casino operator to load up $25,000 in jackpot winnings to your Play+ account. Your money transfers instantly, and is immediately available for use.
