Default Re: What to do when a player goes south?

How does somebody going south void a jackpot? Have you seen a jackpot not be paid because of this? Perhaps I shouldn't say this, but I suspect most jackpot voiding rules are simply to keep the lotto-chasers in line. A lot easier and with less argument or aquarium-tapping to say "voids jackpot" than to give the real reasons for things.

But then, I wouldn't put it past some floor to become convinced of their own bull-hooey.

I have seen a Jackpot get voided due to someone ratholing, I was on the next table and needless to say that people were upset. I don't know the reasoning behind it, but I saw it happen.

Some casinos look for ways to invalidate jackpots. Nobody in Nevada is likely to get away with this--I really don't see the Gaming Commission agreeing with the casino that someone removing $100 in chips 3 hands ago invalidates any jackpot won on that table while the player is still there. I imagine the Gaming Agent would roll his eyes and politely ask if they REALLY want to proceed down this path.
