Bellagio credit line
In advance of my trip I filled out the web-based application and was granted a decent line of credit. Then I found out that I can't cash a check at the cage against this new line, and that they frown on me taking a marker out at a table and then walking (over to the poker room) with the chips.
Most of the places here in Reno let me cash checks against my credit lines without problem. Any suggestions? I just want easy access to cash on the trip... |

Wire money over and have them keep it in a box for you.

Re: Bellagio credit line
Yeah I just went to my bank today and had them wire it over to the bellagio...call the cage and ask them for the wiring information and then when you get there you just go up to the cage and withdraw whatever you want. You can put it back in and withdraw it whenever you want and when you're leaving they'll wire it back to your bank (assuming that's what you want).
Seems liek the way to go IMO. |

Another option is EFT, I don't know if the big casinos have implemented that yet however - nice and free [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] TT [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] |

Re: Bellagio credit line
I dont see what the big deal is at the Bellagio anyway, but they seem extra grumpy about this stuff. They made it pretty clear that they were not "the bank of Bellagio" and that if I wired money to them that they expected to get some table game play out of me. They threatened to cancel the credit line they just issued me if I sign a marker at a table and then pick up my chips and go elsewhere. And they won't use the credit line to back up a check I write at the cage, even if its from the same account that they have on file.
Stupid. |

Re: Bellagio credit line
This is standard stuff. They want people to play in the pit not the poker room. Poker is offered in hopes that you will play something else while you are there. If you make it clear you are "poker only" they have no use for you.
