Not thinking that's gonna happen at the Rio anytime soon. Frankly, I'm surprised someone isn't stupid enough to try it at some smaller venues, given the lack of serious security.
I wouldn't worry about Foxwood, the Indians picked a spot that has just a few roads in and out. The security is there to protect the Casino, not the customers.
Actually as we discussed this, the best security is never seen. One knows it is there but out of sight, out of mind.
Portland Maine has an Arena that has security that drives the druggies crazy, I went to a 38 Special Concert and the people in front of us were having a hissy fit, because security did not advertise, wore plain cloths and no one knew when they were safe to fire one up.
Frankly, I'm surprised someone isn't stupid enough to try it at some smaller venues, given the lack of serious security.
From what I have been told the large venues have a built in loss expectation due to employee theft, and customer theft from cheating.
Smaller venues have the same but cannot handle a loss the size of a large Casino. So, their security is unseen but more proactive then their competitors.
The biggies in Vegas will throw a cheater out and pass along photos of the smuck that took them for perhaps $10,000 to other Casinos on the strip. They in turn will ban them from their establishment.
A small Casino in say Maine will do no such thing, the cheater will have a very bad accident driving home. First on scene will be a civilian with an impeccable reputation, say a woman with kids in her car, what ever she says happend will not be to the advantage of the smuck.
Sort of like your Sub Sparky, unseen, unheard, and worth 5 battle ships as a deterrent.
Really to understand how this works, I and a coworker got a crash course at Foxwoods.
Hubby and I had gone with a group of people from work by bus to that Casino. We don't gambol but perhaps $50.00 each, when the money runs out we then take the free- be's from the casino and the tour line to eat and people watch.
Hubby and I were filling in time untill the return trip by bus, checking out the shops and laughing our selves silly at the prices of everything.
Along came a motorised machine of some sort with all kinds of cameras equipment attached, it was moving at a very good clip just zooming down the walk way. We decided to follow it out of nothing else to do and we found it at a black jack table.
The machine was at a stand still behind ED, the floor sweeper at our work. Poor old ED, he was drunk as a skunk and betting $100.00 a hand. Unfortunately he was UP on the bets and raking in the chips even as drunk as he was. Had ED been sober, he would have been intimidated by the cameras, perhaps thrown off his game, but, drunk he didn't even know they were there.
It took all we had to get him away from the table and back on the bus with his winnings that were to us and him sizeable. People came up to us as we were half dragging him away to offer him a free room, free transportation home the next day if he stayed.
Like a little kid he kept opening his wallet to show strangers this huge ward of bills he had won. I ran interference for him, when someone tried to stop us I claimed to be his wife and insisted he get on that darn Bus.
We got him home safe and sound with his winnings we thought, but this story has a wierd ending. He decided to hide his winnings, when he awoke the next day he could not remember where he had put all that money.
Fast forward to today, Ed has still not found his fortune and finds he is stuck in his apartment and cannot move. He will not allow anyone into his place, has spent 5 years removing and checking behind all wall outlets, behind all built in lighting fixtures, torn up most of his wall to wall carpet. He is afraid to get rid of any wood furniture, his mattress or sofa cushions.
He will not get rid of his car, has it in storage and has taken it down to the frame.
Me, I don't think he ever made it home off the bus with the money, I believe someone aboard got his wallet as he was disembarking when everyone is lined up and belly to belly and picket pocketed him and replaced the wallet.
The 3 hour ride did little to sober him up, he may have been in the habit of hiding assets so assumes he hid his bank roll.
Human nature-----what a hoot.
