Casino ships me extra hundo
 
Was studying some bs management course in the library when my friend called me to go play some craps. I ditch that [censored] and go play some dice. We lose a bit at the craps table, win some at roulette. Leaving I throw a quarter on some random chinese dominoes board and win, so im up a hundred on the day.

We go cashout and I have 330 in chips. Guy stacks the quarters, stacks the fives, then says "430" when I can clearly see its 330. Im like sure, grab the cash, tip him a fin and get the [censored] out. Take that stupid montreal casino.

I hope you feel good about him getting in serious trouble for his drawer being off, $100, which he likely had to either make up out-of-pocket or get written up/fired.

For a baller like you, weak sauce. Some people have to work for a living, and you should respect that. They pay your bills with that $$$.

seriously. i've gotten more money than i deserve on numerous occasions (cash register, casino cashier, whatever) and I always give it back because somebody's going to have to cover the difference between how much money the company in question should have and how much it actually has and it's never going to be the company taking the hit.

CCTV?

Surely they will watch the security tapes and see when he shipped you the extra $100 and then contact you via other means..

DUCY?

You have not much future there. It will happen this way. You may be walking. Maybe the first sunny day of the spring. And a car will slow beside you, and a door will open, and someone you know, maybe even trust, will get out of the car. And he will smile, a becoming smile. But he will leave open the door of the car and offer to give you a lift.

I'm pretty sure a casino till being $100 off is really not the huge of a number to them.

Yeah I'm sure it doesn't bother them at all when that happens.

They don't get in trouble for this. Cashiers are bonded, insured against errors like this. It happens all the time, and it's part of the price of doing business for casinos. Some insurance company somewhere will eat that loss.

Everyone here should remember that when you're the recipient of a favorable pay-out error on the part of a casino employee, be it a cashier, a blackjack dealer, or whoever else. In the case of a table game, it will just get lumped in with the table hold (reducing it by whatever amount) and will never be discovered. In the case of a cashier or someone working the floor like a slot change person, the casino is aware humans make mistakes and they are insured against it. The chance that "you get someone fired" because you don't alert them to their pay-out error is virtually nil.

Give the cash back, you got it from somewhere they will notice and not from a table. I have given back extra money twice, the first time it happend I got a few free drinks out of it and the second I was told that there was no way to verify what I was saying and to just keep it, mind you the first time was for about $150 and the second was only like $20 or so. It never hurts your rep to do the right thing and its money you would never have had in the first place.

If this was true I'd get a job as a cashier at a casino tomorrow and retire rich in a year or two.

Re: Casino ships me extra hundo
 
alright, spoke to the casino. Told them the situation and that I didnt realize until I went home and counted the money in my wallet. Told them I dont want the cashier getting in trouble, but I can only bring it back tomorrow. Luckily I remember the time I cashed out and which cage it was so they can tell at the end of the day by whichever of the 3 counts is off by 100. Gave them my name and address, told them id be by tomorrow and meet with a manager and take care of it. So well see what happens

Try it. Enjoy the penitentiary. There's a difference between fraud and mistakes, and, among other things, they have different statistical signatures. It's easy to tell when people are dumping money to compatriots as opposed to making mistakes at an error rate commensurate with that of a competent human being.

yeah, but it sounds like ahnuld actually didn't think about this stuff when he took the extra money, and when he figure it out, he felt bad about it..... so it's all good

If this is true then [censored] the casino. It`s owned by the government so consider it a tax rebate.

And about the poker... I`ve heard tourneys in Janurary anyone else hear anything?
