Once while playing VP at Windsor Raceway Slots( now closed) a regular that played there wasn't have a good night. He had seen me hit a few $600 4OAKs on Pick'em in the past hour or so.

He comes over and asks if I would be interested in buying his watch? Shows me it on his wrist and says he will sell it to me for $600.
I took a good look at it but since the watch I was wearing was the most expensive I had ever bought ( $110 at COSTCO) I told him it was nice but I was already had a nice watch. He said to me he really needed some cash so if I gave him $250 he would sell it to me. I countered with a, tell you what I got $200 for it if you are interested. He jumped on it. I almost felt bad for him because this was a really nice watch , almost felt like I was robbing him of it. So I said tell you what if in the next hour or so you hit something you can buy it back for the $200. He said thanks I hope I hit something. About 20 minutes later he did hit for $600 and came right over asking if I really meant it that he could buy it back for $200...said sure did. Out comes the $200 and i returned him his watch. Still wish to this day I never made him that offer

Oh the watch....it was a DETROIT RED WINGS watch from the early 70's I would guess.... from when he played for them. I forget what was engraved on it after all these years ....but it surely meant more to him than to me.

I suppose that technically the answer is, 'yes,' but not the sort of, 'buy something,' to which you're referring. I tend to smoke more often than usual while playing machines, and occasionally, I won't bring enough smokes with me. I'll usually offer another smoker a dollar for a cigarette, and usually they'll just say, "Here, you can have one," but occasionally, people have taken me up on the dollar. Sometimes, they'll insist on giving me two cigarettes for a dollar instead.

I don't like to bum cigarettes, so I've never asked for one without offering a buck. If they don't take the buck, that is that person's decision.

I did have someone offer to sell me a Wal-Mart gift card for half of the face value once claiming he inadvertently lost his gas money and needed cash for gas to get home. I asked to see the card to call the number on the back and ensure the balance was still there, all the while saying I felt 50% was unfair and would pay 75% ($15), he said, "F*** you," pocketed the card, and briskly walked the other way...so my guess is there was nothing on it, or considerably less than $20, anyway.

I should introduce you that lovely young lady who gives cigarettes away when asked but always insists on receiving a "kiss on the cheek" in return.

Its often dangerous to buy anything in or near a casino. NEVER buy chips. The old dodge is "we just won this huge sum at "game X" but are illegal immigrants without social security numbers" so will you buy our chips at half price. Once you leave the shadows and get into better lighting you look at the chips and see they are obviously counterfeit.

Its like hanging around a supermarket: eventually someone offers you food stamps at a bargain price so he can buy alcohol and drugs. Well, if he prefers alcohol and drugs to a decent meal, do you really want to be doing business with him?

There's a guy who breaks out boxes of cologne for sale if he busts out at the poker tables.
Who would think his products could be safe, much less legit? Yet, he still finds customers. I guess gamblers really will take action on anything.

I don't think I've ever purchased anything from someone in a casino, other than cigarettes (1 for $1). Likewise, I don't think I've ever sold anything in a casino, either.

I don't think I've ever seen someone trying to sell something (to me or others, except outside like panhandlers "Watta one dolla!") in a casino.


Not really on topic, but kinda close, a player (genuinely good guy, nice, tipping every now and then) busted out. He felt like he should have tipped the dealers more. He looks through his wallet for a couple extra bucks, has no cash. He digs around in the pockets in his wallet and finds a coupon for a restaurant, like buy 1 get one free or whatever. He tried tipping the dealers that, but they couldn't take it. He then pulls out a $25 gift card for some store (like Macy's or something) and tries giving the dealers the gift card as a tip. It was pretty funny, but at the same time, felt sorry for him, because you could tell he really wanted to give the dealers a bigger tip, but couldn't.

Clothing, golf clubs, TVs, all electronics, concert tickets, coach bags, perfume, jewelery. A player's card is like a debit card at my local casinos. One point is worth $1 and can be used anywhere on the property. When someone loses all their money and has to wait a day for the next bus home, they become desperate and will use their points to get their hands on some cash. If they don't have points, some of the ladies will offer other things that I politely decline.

I have gotten items for as little 10 cents on the dollar and it's all top quality. Am I taking advantage of people? No, that's the casino's job. This happens a few times a year and is very subtle. I'm certainly not parading through the casinos soliciting this.

One time in Atlantic City, I stepped up to a jitney cab stop and an older, homeless looking guy approached and sold me a senior citizen discount ticket. I think it was valued at $1.50, I paid $2.00. I think the normal full fare was $2.75. I saved $.75 while he made $.50. Talk about an underground economy...

Okay, not the big value stuff you guys are talking about, but that's the closest I've come to buying something in a casino from a person.

Some years ago I was comped a room for three nights at Silverton. This included two tickets to Rick Springfield in their venue. I tried to sell the tickets before the show to people in the casino. Everyone said they already had tickets. After about three tries I gave up. Didn't go to the concert either, so I didn't hear him sing his hit Jesse's Girl.

Hootie And The Blowfish played Silverton a few years back. Funny how a group can be on top and then a few years later be playing at Silverton.

The house in Vegas I lived in was owned by a RE investor who had bought it from a certain player in the "big game" at Bellagio after a particularly bad streak. The house was probably worth $400k at the time and I believe he paid 225-275k in cash, he had to close within one day. The week after selling the house he wins a million straight and wants to buy it back, but my landlord refused. I ended up renting it from him a couple years down the road - I won playing HU against him and he asked me if I wanted to rent his house and I paid a year's rent up front. After the crash he kept trying to get me to assume the mortgage on it for like $200k and take the house and I passed. It was probably worth $700k at peak.

If you have lots of cash and want to make loans and know a lot of rich degenerates, I'm sure you can make millions. A hard money lender I know has taken all kinds of stuff as collateral, a custom $200k car - the strangest one I ever heard was that he lent $100k to a dancer, 8-10% interest, the collateral was $100k in cash. Seems like a pretty good loan to make to me.

Never did anything crazy with buying from anyone at the casino. The only thing I've done is trading someone a $5 chip for 2x 2.50 pink AC Hilton chips right after it was rebranded to the Atlantic Club, since they couldn't use them at the table and had to go to the cage. Didn't really think twice about it, but I did it at a blackjack table and at the worst I'd be out $5.

I've bought slot tickets off people. Out of cash at a table, have a 30$ ticket, want to double on a 20$ hand. If it hits, just return it. If you miss, my ticket. I guess they could carry a stock of fake/invalid tickets, but I'm not that fussed.

Never did buy anything, but I did sell something once.

Years ago I was playing Texas Hold'em at the Hard Rock in Tampa. I was accompanying a friend of mine who wanted to go. I had never been to a casino before, much less played poker in one, and had absolutely ZERO idea what I was doing. But I held my head above water, and a few hands in, I hit a straight flush. I won a small jackpot--something like $450--and an invitation to a tournament that was being held next week. As soon as I got the invitation, a man approached me and asked if I wanted $50 for it. I was leaving town the next day and it was useless to me anyway, so I pocketed the cash.

Yes, I know: not two nanoseconds after I gave him the card, I realized I should've bargained him up to at least $100. I still regret it to this day. :-)

The story of the mute hooker selling her "goodies" at the Palms next to the club by the FPDW machines. She was writing down prices on a notepad. I didn't buy, as it'd probably cost me one quarter royal just for a few hours.

I met Barry at the Riverside in Laughlin. He was a drunk, a compulsive gambler, and somewhat unethical, but other than that he was a pretty nice guy. Barry got everything comped at the Riverside, the rooms, the meals, the drinks, off his terrible blackjack play.

Some of you probably know who the Watchman is. He has a store in the Riverside where he sells junk watches and junk jewelry.

To support his habits, Barry bought $10 rings from the Watchman. Barry had a 14 Carat Gold Stamp. He would take the ring up to his room, stamp it, then rub cigarette ashes into it to make it look like it had been worn quite a bit. Then he would go stand out on the Riverwalk and play a down on his luck gambler looking to sell his 14 Carat Gold Ring.

He never set a specific price. He just simply asked folks what they would give him for it. After selling a few rings you would find Barry in the pit drinking screwdrivers and blowing the money playing blackjack.

Some mornings I would be playing Flush Attack or House a Rockin' and Barry would come up to me looking all sick, sober, and sorry and ask me for a $10 loan so he could go buy a ring. I didn't have the heart to turn him down.

a) A couple of years ago, I bought show tickets from someone at Paris, trying to upgrade to seats that were better than what I already had. The guy selling them had extras, and he also went to the show. It turned out that my original tickets were about the same as the ones I bought, and he INSISTED on giving me my money back.

b) Someone gave me comp tickets (to the same show at Paris, which I really liked) so I insisted on giving him some money.

c) The Mrs won a drawing and got a football jersey, and some lady wanted to buy it from her. It wasn't that nice of a jersey, so we sold it for $ 20 less than was offered. It made me feel better and I think it made the day of the lady that bought it too.

I'm with you on all of that, especially the chips. They could just break those up and cash them over multiple transactions without hassle.

To the latter, pragmatically, I'd almost want to take a, "If I don't buy them, someone will," attitude. No, I probably wouldn't do it, though. Although, it couldn't be an undercover sting because I think that would constitute entrapment.

The best buy I ever made from someone at a Casino was tickets for last year's Billy Joel concert at the MGM grand.

Showed up in town expecting to get tickets comped to me, it didn't happen.

Went to an invite only party at the Mirage where they gave away 2 sets of tickets to the concert....I didn't win.

My wife got to talking with the girl who did win the tickets and it turned out she already had seats. So eventually my wife gets the girl to offer the tickets to us for $150 ea. I closed that deal so quickly, had the money in her hand and the tickets in mine before she even finished making the offer. It was a great show, highlight of my year....but damn it I know that if I had not accepted so quickly I could have gotten them for $200 instead of $300

On another occasion, I was playing Hold Em at the Golden Nugget. Had a great day, cashed 6 of their little tournaments in a row. During the course of the day I got to talking with this other guy, we had ended up heads=up 4 times that day (I won all 4). He was a bit of a conspiracy nut, but overall enjoyable company. He kept trying to sell me a book that he was promoting. Now, I was staying at Sam's Town on that trip, at the end of the night as I was about to get in a cab....I finally offered to buy his book as long as it came with a ride to my hotel.

Figure I saved at least $10 on the cab fare.

Someone mentioned people selling CD's.

Some young guy was trying to sell me his rap CD at the Palms for $10(he lived near the Palms). I thought it was funny It had his "name" written in magic marker. I convinced him to give it to me for free, he did, but asked that I let others listen to it and call him if they liked it.

I'm not a rap fan, other than a few songs, but I was actually surprised, it wasn't that bad. The CD is still in the car.

I seen him a few times after that, he was a fairly nice kid.

Clever marketing I guess. It's not a pleasant vision in my head, so I would pass. To be fair I dislike most seafood, shrimp is the only seafood ill eat.

Some woman couldn't get any in the club "or something" so she came up to you, at a video poker machine, to proposition you for sex... And you think she wasn't a hooker?

That happens more than people would think and they are not all hookers. Ha ha, they're not all lookers either.

I just can't bring myself to believe that though... I'm young, in shape, etc, etc, been to Vegas more than a dozen times, and I've NEVER had a girl approach me and proposition me for sex (that wasn't a hooker - happened twice thus far).

I'm not attractive lol. I think she was just lonely or something. That + alcohol makes people do strange things.

You're as attractive as I am and I was hit on twice on my most recent trip early last year. I'd have taken the first one up on it, too, had I not been married at the time.

I can't seem to get drink service, much less hookers, even with a stack of black in front of me. I can, however, get carded every time they change shifts. -_-

That depends on what you're doing with the hooker, doesn't it?

How can you not like Lobster, or sushi?



I've eaten sushi 3 times, twice I got
sick. Lobster has no taste unless you
dip it in butter. What's the point.
