Default Re: tunica

I agree.
If he can look the part then I suspect there is a chance that he can pull it off without getting carded at the door.

Using a fake is pretty dangerous imo.


chipr777 posted a month or two ago about a 20-year-old that they caught in their poker-room (chipr777 works at the Horseshoe) and they just told them to leave I think.


Once you get inside there is a decent chance that nothing will happen to you (although still the possibility that someone will nail you).
I worked as a blackjack dealer at a different casino in Tunica.
We were only supposed to ask if they had a players' card.
We were never supposed to ask a player if they were 21 and had ID to prove it. That was mostly up to the floor if they wanted to enforce it....and I think the floor mostly assumed that the security dude at the door was taking care of it...which they often-times weren't.

I dealt to a ton of players who, to me, looked like they could have been about 15 for all I knew...and never saw any of them carded inside the casino.


Then again, a dealer friend of mine went to the Gold Strike one time and was asked to show her idea. The security-guard swore it was a fake and kept her there for 40 minutes holding her card and generally being a prick.
The girl he was keeping there was 27-years-old and didn't even look close to 20 imo (nor did she really act like it...she was stopping by the Gold Strike at about 2am to play a little after putting in a shift at our casino...and she'd been there about a zillion times before).



So...as you would expect...some security-guards barely pay any attention...while others are total retards about it.
most are somewhere in-between.
