Resorts World

[Ben RosenthalKeymaster]

Got told not to do slots anymore at Resorts World (Las Vegas). Interestingly, I was told I could still do table games if I wanted, so it wasn’t a full ban, and it felt really informal. They asked for my ID, and I said I didn’t have it on me (ridiculous answer, but whatever). It was early in the morning (about 6:30), so I’m sure I stuck out by checking machines in an empty casino. Luckily, I had not used my players card this morning, though I did yesterday, and I’m sure they could connect the dots if they really wanted to. Anyway, just passing this along to be careful at Resorts World. There might be more opportunity here if you’re careful, though.

Yes they are quick to back off. My friend was in there for 10 minutes and they approached him.

Interesting. That probably explains why I had my two best finds of my trip there.

Clearly, the ban was more of a suggestion than an official ban (see photo). This is probably obvious, but I’ll say it anyway: When someone from a casino approaches you and wants to see your players card or ID, don’t give them either. If they tell you to leave, so be it, but they aren’t the cops and have no authority to demand anything.

Not necessarily, history has shown that hosts aren’t always in the loop on status from gaming protection – once went to a nearby casino to find that my account was locked for “comp abuse” – raising the issue with rewards I found out they apparently locked it ~6 weeks ago (and undid it a week after I raised the issue, as I clearly had played and lost a good bit over past couple of months – someone was just overzealous cutting everyone) – but I was getting continually offers and emails from my host that whole time.

Interesting. Makes sense, though, as far as everyone not always being on the same page.
