Buy a nice handbag, put all your bills in it and strap it around your chest. That's how I carry my 10g's around. [/ QUOTE ] Pathetic. |

Re: Buyin/cashout transportation
I've been under the impression that casinos can cut a check and/or even wire the money to y0ur bank acclunt. I know that in big slot jackpot wins they will wire the money to a bank acclunt. Is there some clarity here? How big for this service?

Usually with a rubber band around the folded $100's in my pocket.
Most of us felt that way when we got started, but now carring around $5-10K is not a real big deal. If it makes you more comfortable, buy a money belt that you can wear under the waist of your pants. |

Re: Buyin/cashout transportation
It is all relative. I used to get nervous going to a game with 1K on me. Now I regularly go to Vegas and Louisiana with 10K on me. I do usually get a lockbox at the casino I am playing at and just carry 1 or 2K around with me at most. I just got back from Vegas and the day I got there I got a box at no charge (save a $50 refundable key deposit) and kept most of my money there until the morning I left. You need the roll in case of a bad run, but you can always leave the table and get more if you need it.
In July, I won about 24K in Vegas and instead of carrying it, I went to a Washington Mutual branch and just deposited it in my account. I opened an account at Washington Mutual Bank for this very reason (and also for the opposite, hehe). |

Re: Buyin/cashout transportation
If you play at the same casino most of the time, most higher stakes players get safe deposit boxes at the club. You can just stash your chips/cash in there. That's a good idea, since people love to follow you out to the parking lot and rob you. The shady characters often know who the winners are.
If you go on the road, you just need to carry the cash. If you can't handle it, then you need to learn to. I frequently have 10K on my person, and that's life. |

Also the chance of tripling is much lower in the higher games because there just isn't as much gravy on the table. [/ QUOTE ] Clearly, you have never been to Canterbury Park. |

Re: Buyin/cashout transportation
I have a safe deposit box at the card room. I sometimes use valet, which they comp, but I have never heard of anyone getting robbed in Canterbury's parking lot, so I really don't worry about it much.
But yeah, a lot of these guys will walk around with $10K or so in their pockets. I played in home game last night, so I have about $8K in the other room. So what? |

Re: Buyin/cashout transportation
I have only come away from a casino over $2,000 once (High Hand Jackpot) and I walked over to get a money order. Kept the recipt up in my hotel room and the money order in my wallet. Overtime I guess you could get pretty comfortable with larger and larger ammounts in your pocket.
