Former surveillance employee, a chip runner would fix this problem. But for about 5k, you’ll need about 3-4 people
If there's no legal requirement to ask for id, doesn't that give them the flexibility to go above and beyond the law and still ask for id? If the law doesn't say "you can only ask for id at 10k+", then surely they're not breaking the law in this video?
Steve, don’t invoke the police in these cases. Even if they help you, they’ll pull you over the next day and take your money. No one is more corrupt than Louisiana state police
Are you coming to California?
like your videos…I WILL GIVE U COMMISSION AND TRY CURIOSTY, THANKS BUTTTTTTTT
WHY complain on id??? they have your photo to pass on to other casinos….
Works for the gaming commission but isn't sure about the law related to their industry 🤦
To be honest my thought is if you want to play their game you have to abide by their rules. Plain and simple
I'm wondering. How does one give off "card counter energy" vs "regular gambler energy"? 😄
Why don't they just take pictures of EVERYONE'S ID when they come in the casino? Why don't you just give them a fake ID when they ask? That way when the police ask you give them the real one…
State law== federal law. Federal law for reportable gambling income has a high threshold of $5,000 and with some of the lower casino related thresholds being down around $600 if your winning are more than 300x your wager. Pay your taxes.
If YT clips the following link, search “Gaming withholding reporting threshold IRS”.

Is it not possible to ask a friend to cash in your chips?
Wouldn't a card counter want another card counter at the table so you don't get a very bad novice blackjack player
since when do card counters cause so much attention to themselves? seems like a bad idea
Welcome to America where we have no real right and the ones who are supposed to upholds the few we do have are the same ones trying to take em away
Yeah, welcome to the American legal system! It's a garbage country where everything is made up and the laws don't matter. If the punishment for a crime is a fine, that punishment only applies to The Poor. Casinos are the rich.
You're getting a first hand glimpse into the corrupt pay to win justice system here in America. Law enforcement regularly tramples on the constitution and the law and they are protected by qualified immunity. It's disgusting, there is no justice here anymore it's about who has the most money. I love my country but I am sickened by what the people have allowed it to become 🙁
The best way to stop this kind of behavior is to sue. Also, a case that happened in Nevada doesn't matter for any other state.
Dude, I can save you a whole load of time….there’s 52 cards in a pack.
I get they can't force you to show I.D. but if they are recognizing you anyway than what's the harm in showing them? The amounts you were cashing out aren't exactly worth hunting you down for. I've won more than all the amounts added together in this video in a single sitting at a casino and no one blinked an eye. There must be a betting style or way you're acting making them suspicious.
These casinos are losing a ton of money kicking these types of people out. 99% of the time card counters still lose money it just doesn't make sense that they would kick out people that are literally begging to bring them $
Why not call the police? If they break thr law then it's you're right, eventhough this is more a case for the federal business investigation unit.
You should have gone back and berated him. You should always treat people down when they are ignorant just to remember them they are inferior to you.
Nex t time tell him it is "ask for ID" not "axe for ID"
So just show them your id and claim your 5k. Jesus Christ
Welcome to America! Where you are held hostage by the government everyday.
You say you lost your cool, yea you probaby did but it was justified. Would anyone in their right mind serve alcohol to someone if there was any shadow of a doubt that they were underage. Nope. That situation hold great potential to cause damage to the person that served, the licence holder and the business. Possible prison sentences and hefty fines in UK, don't know how it works in the U.S. So you're sat there for playing for four hours before someone requests your I.D because they doubt that you're under the age of 21. What BS. That could bring their professional conduct into question and cause them more drama than they're causing you but we know they're trying to cover their intentions with that so it'd bring them into more drama to cover up. You're perfectly justified for losing your cool a bit.
Hey Steven, it's great to see this casino behaviour called out, and I think you should keep exposing them on the channel. That being said, it would be nice to also see at least some card counting theory in each video. It's a neat craft and I love seeing the math and graphs!
