Seriously. I've never had a problem withdrawing (6k) or depositing (5k many times and 40k once) at my bank and it's just a branch in a grocery store.

Right, but you live in Las Vegas. This is probably much more common there than it is in a non-gambling city. Any time I've done a decent four figure cash transaction at my bank, I get the concerned looks and all that BS.

Last time I went to AC, I got 300 out for the 2/4 limit game at the Trop, and the ATM didn't say a thing to me about it.

I can't understand you guys who deposit and withdraw constantly. Why wouldn't you just keep enough cash on hand to play without having to go to the bank everytime you hit a minor downswing. The time and effort of going to the bank everytime you want to play has got to be worth something. Doesn't anybody keep a stash of cash in their mattress anymore?

the scumbag money changer in vegas charged like 5% or something absolutely outragous.

Why not just cash it at the casino cage? I have not been charged a fee in the past, but the last time I did it was about 10 years ago. Maybe that has changed????

before a vegas trip a few years ago i went to my bank and tried to take out 10k. this must have raised suspicions as they did a signature check and some other security stuff and i had to talk to the manager. then they said they could only give me 5k bc they simply dont keep enough cash on hand. i was told i could go to another branch and get more or they could write me a check which i could cash in vegas. i opted for the check which was a mistake as the scumbag money changer in vegas charged like 5% or something absolutely outragous. ya, that felt good after dropping 4k in an hr in a 40 game.

as i was leaving the teller asked me what i was doing with so much cash. she was hot little blond from eastern europed with a sexy accent. i think my bank imports them bc they are cheaper. her name was bella. i proudly told her i was going to vegas to make a fortune playing poker. she seemed geniunely concerned. omg, pls dont lose all that money she purred. dont worry honey, im gonna come back with double. she perked up and said she couldnt wait to see me again. ahh, yes my plan was in place.

then i lost it all in vegas and havent been back.

I do if for no other reason than I like looking at it from time to time. It's nice to have a couple 10K bundles lying around. Also, for the inevitable retard who responds about the interest I'm losing, I don't care.
