Markers and other casinos.

Do casinos share marker information with each other? If someone had $10,000 credit in various casinos, can they max out in multiple locations.
Say I was in Tunica and took out max markers, would casinos in Vegas be aware of it? If so, would it affect my ability to take new ones in Nevada?

If the casino in Tunica was the same company as the casino in Vegas, then yes? Not sure

I have been told they all share information , same company or not ... but I can imagine they limit it to "top amount approved" and whether there have been problems if it is not within the same company

Let me clarify the question a bit.
Hypothetical question for a possible future plot development.

An established player has a credit line for $10,000 at seven casinos. None are related to each other.
Each casino approved him for $10,000 but if he acts quickly could he cash out the whole $70,000?

Potentially, I think.

I have noticed for smaller amounts there is no concern you might leave with more than you came with ... without winning it, that is. But casinos vary too. For as much as $10k I would expect any place to be paying more attention; I think they would have to think you lost it, to not pay off the marker before you left. Maybe if you were good at rat-holing, but at the cage they have another chance to notice.

Somebody wanting to pull it off probably would want to be well known at each place as someone taking that amount out regularly and paying it back no problem. For one thing, you wouldnt want each place to call the bank , and they might not if it was a regular thing.

If I was writing a story I would have the guy fail to leave with that money at least at one place.

I haven't used casino credit in about 10 years, but my understanding at the time was that there was a company that kept track of all casino credit information for all casinos. Sort of a central credit bureau just for casino customers. If my recollection is correct I would guess any casino could look at your history and probably even your current outstanding balances at any point in time. If your financial condition only warrants a total of $10,000 credit I doubt the other casinos would be willing to extend you anymore knowing you were already at your max elsewhere. Again, this is my recollection from about 10 years ago and I won't swear the above is correct.

Here is the company.....

That's interesting, but is it updated instantly, or daily. I don't see a list of clients so I can't see how much of the market they control.
I appreciate your linking this

That is why they have a fully staffed Prosecutor's Office downtown. The answer to your question is yes you could. Maybe not 7x max credit but at least 3x.
