| Why I hate the Luxor... I just got back from my first trip to Vegas... I wanted to grab 12 $1 chips from Bellagio, NY NY and the Luxor. (BTW, we stayed at NY NY... no poker room... WTF?!) So... I strolled up to the cashier and asked for $20 worth of $1 chips... cashier says "Sorry, you have to get the chips off of the tables." BJ tables only had $5s so I jumped on a craps table... set my $20 down and ask for $1s... "uhm, no, sorry, it's a $5 minimum table we can only give out $5s".... I politely respond "I'd like to take some as souvenirs, would that be ok?" she replies, "Nope, sorry, we don't allow people to remove the chips from the casino", sets down 4 $5s and she refuses to talk to me anymore. I take my 5s to the next table -- "could I trade these in for some $1s?" he says... "No, it's a $5 minimum". Cashed out. Bastards.
Bellagio happily handed me over my 12 chips and the dealer at NY NY picked out the nicest chips she could find. |
