How to carry (lots of) cash?
 
My hollowed-out copy of Super System got lost the other day, so I knew it was time to ask B&M for advice. I play live a lot and it's always a pain to manage cash. If kept in my wallet I always have trouble distinguishing my bankroll from walking money, and that's just when I'm lucky enough to have hundreds. If I'm carrying twenties they usualy don't even fit in my wallet.

Suggestions? I have a few important criteria:
<ul type="square">[*] I have to be able to carry my walking money and bankroll together, without having to worry about getting them mixed up, so a wallet with one monster pouch won't do. [*] I don't always get cashouts in hundreds, so I need to be able to carry a lot of bills. The worst case scenario is $1500 in twenties, or 75 bills. My wallet won't close with 50 bills in it. [*] The places I play at don't have any safe boxes where I could leave cash or chips. [*] I need to be able to go to work with my bankroll, so things like the fanny pack this young nerd is wearing won't do:

I am constantly amazed at the frequency with which people feel the need to come on here and ask how to carry money. Makes me wonder how some people get themselves dressed in the morning.

If I can carry $10,000 in the back pocket of my jeans, then you can find a way to carry $1500 lol.

I don't think $1500 is a brag. What I find bizarre though is that he would have $1500 in $20 bills. How does that happen?

Hide it next to your [censored]. No one will ever go there.

The "places" I play are often "unable" to give out higher bills than that. I can't say it any more clearly. If lived somewhere where poker was less than fully legal, you might understand.

Is it more amazing that we post such questions or that you troll the threads? If this is such an easy question, why don't you suggest a smart way for someone to carry two thousand dollars in small bills to work and then to a card room?

I'm not trolling any threads. But since you're being a prick I'll be a prick back and tell you to just use the [censored] search function to find the answer to this question that is asked on a weekly basis.

get a passport thing that you wear around your neck, but under your shirt. simple enough though a rubber band is the preferred method.

I agree that it amazes me that people who play poker need to ask about how to carry money. There aren't many options. How the hell can you playy poker but yet not figure out how to hold the [censored] money.

Headed for strip club, obv. I've taken $4000 to the strip club before{didn't need no fanny pack either), but the "fun" girls only seem to show up when I have no money.

Re: How to carry (lots of) cash?
 
OP, seriously? Its 1500 bucks. That isn't a "lot" of money when going to a casino. Just put it in your damn pocket. Go to the bank or casino and change some of the 20's to hundos.

There's nothing new that could possibly be posted. End of thread pls.

This works well, as do the cargo shorts. You could get 100k cash in all your pockets. $100 dollar bills of course.

Ankle wallet FTW..flush against your leg even with 10K in it, can't be seen under long pants which means you can take it through airport security without taking it off..maybe a little ghey if that bothers you.

How is this a big deal to just shove into your pocket? I don't even understand why you want so many 20's anyway just get hundos

whats with the rubberband fetish? Thats a bit overboard IMHO.

All - I used to walk the streets of NYC with 2k on average EVERYDAY. I felt naked if I didn't have a lot of cash on me just in case of an emergency. Walking around vegas with 10k is the same thing (I dont do this every day so don't get any dumb ideas people), to the observer on the street there is no difference between $1 or $10k in your front pocket.

This thread is therefore now officially ridiculous, its only paper - the only person who knows how much money your carrying is you.

As Daniel Craig demonstrated in the most recent Bond movie, you can fit 100,000,000 Euros in a briefcase. So, I think you should probably be OK with $2,500.

We're being leveled, right? 100 million Euros requires 200,000 500 EU bills. I don't see offhand in a google hunt how much a Euro weighs, but a US bill weighs about 1 gram. So 200,000 US bills would weigh about 200kg (440 lbs).

Sure... Tote that around in a briefcase.

I was joking. Obviously, in real life, you can't carry €100,000,000 in a briefcase. However:

[SPOILER ALERT]

In Casino Royale, James Bond wins a poker tournament with a €100,000,000 prize. This is neatly handled to him in a metal briefcase, which he handily totes around.

[/SPOILER ALERT]

This implausibility drove me nuts (plus, the poker that comprises about 1/3 of the movie was stupid) and was a key reason that I disliked the movie.

All that not withstanding, it is very easy to carry around $2,500.

Wallets are for not for ballers. Fold up your BR in your left pocket and put your spending cash in your right. If you need more room try folding up a wad and putting it in your socks.
