Default Re: getting rid of small bills at the cage

If it is a decent sized casino, they probably have more 100s than they know what to do with, and won't have a problem with an exchange.

I ran into a problem once in Indiana, when I had about $3000 in 20s on me. The cage wouldn't do an exchange, and would only sell me a rack or two of red chips ($10/$20 being the highest limit poker game being spread at the time). So, I just slid over to the roulette table, which always has large stacks of idle high denomination chips. Threw down my money, and watched the dealer count and spread 150 20s, and then try to stuff wads of it down the drop slot. I requested black chips, since this casino is touchy and questions you when cashing in chips larger than 100s. I toked the dealer $5, and slipped the stack and a half of black in my pocket and walked away.

After I was done playing poker, cashed in the black at the cage and requested 100s naturally.
