wish i would have seen that. though i wonder just how many casinos accept 2 dollar bills

I'll take all the US currency you'd like, provided I have a nice edge on our wagers.

Caesars in AC, I go to take a piss at 2 or 3 in the morning. Security comes in while I'm going and starts banging on a stall, yelling to get out. I figure it's either a couple fooling around or somebody is passed out in there. Turns out it's the latter. He pulls himself together and leaves under his own power. I try to mind my own business and never get a good look. They leave the bathroom before I do.

When I leave the bathroom I can finally see the whole scene walking through the casino toward the exit in front of me: the man is very drunk or on drugs and has a peg leg. Not a modern prosthetic leg, we're talking the kind of thing you'd expect to see in Pirates of the Caribbean. And attached to the bottom of his peg leg is a piece of toilet paper that he is dragging through the casino...

If it's legal tender and fits on the drop box slot, they take it.

Susan B Anthony and The Sacagawea dollars.. no problem. JFK 1/2 dollars make a nice clink sound

$2 bills are pretty unique though (and didn't know you could get your hands on so many in that condition - they were mostly crisp).

Video poker story-

Maybe 15 years ago at the Gold Coast I am playing nickel vp and these machines had the double-up option where, after any winning hand, you could choose to go double-or-nothing. If you did, the machine would show one card and of the four others you had to pick a card higher than the one shown.

Kinda fun, as you could double a few times and maybe turn a small payout into a better one. So this homeless guys sits down two machines away and I see he has maybe 15 nickels in his grimy hand. He puts two in the machine and hits maybe a full house for 16 nickels. He decides to double, and wins. Then he doubles again and wins...and he just keeps doing this time and time again. Pretty soon his machine is taking a long time racking up all the credits he has won, and then he just kinda sits there looking at the screen. By this time he had won about $240 iirc... and I am wondering if he is going to risk doubling again. So after maybe ten seconds he is still staring at the screen, looking out of it, so I ask him "Dude, do you realize what your doing?" and he says "Naw man, I'm just trying to get my money out of this thing"

He had no idea that he had been doubling each time...he was simply pushing buttons! I explained which button he needed to push to cash out, he did, the light came on for the hand pay, they came and paid him the $240, and he continues betting 2 nickels at a time...but never doubling again hehe

At least a couple strip-bars are famous for giving change in two-dollar bills instead of with ones.

You can order them from your bank.

Good for him lol. Sometimes it pays to be out of it.

I had a guy one time come stumbling to my Pai-Gow table with a fistful of blacks. He throws $300 on the hand and asks "wtf is this game?" The lady next to him quickly tells him it's not blackjack and that he probably shouldn't be playing (why? I guess because he was soo loaded).

So then he says "**** it, will you help me out?" I say sure, no biggie, then tell him about the bonus bet. He says sure and puts down 2 blacks. I told him it was usually just a $5 bet but the max was $100. He took 1 black back.

Now seriously.. I start dealing the cards (almost immediately after) and by the time I get to the guy, he passed the **** out! I couldn't believe it! I wake the guy up and he says "wtf is this game?" I laugh and say "let me see your cards and I'll help you." I'm kind of explaining it to him as I'm looking for his best hand, etc and see he has a full house with a decent top. I inform him he just won $500 for the full house.. he passes out again. I set my hand and pay the table, etc.

I wake the guy up, he rakes in his chips and goes to make his next bet. $600 and $200. I just throw back a black. His next hand.. he gets a Royal Flush!!! 150 to 1 on his $100. I have to call the boss over.

Meanwhile, the lady who spoke up is giving me nasty ass looks AS IF she would've had that Royal if he never sat down to play (this is impossible in Pai Gow because the cards deal out starting at random seats/spots). No way it was hers.

Long story short.. guy keeps going from lucid to out (multiple times). "Plays" about 3 more hands before THIS happens..

All of a sudden out of nowhere, I swear to God, this guy wakes up, sits up in his chair and does this frantic-like look around (he looked behind him and around) and then he gets up out of his seat and runs for the front doors of AZ Charlie's (the god damned EXIT!).

I'm like wtf just happened?

As he was running out, he took out a little advertisement sign. I alerted the floor manager really quick and told him to chase the guy down. My floor was so lazy, he called security and they went looking for him.

The guy left behind almost $5k at his seat. Fortunately they found him. He was taking a leak between 2 cars in the valet section. They brought him back in to collect his chips.

He tells me thanks for showing him the game and throws me 2 blacks. He stumbled away with security and they put him in a cab home.

I never did guess what the guy was on. I've been ****ed up on all kinds of drugs before but I couldn't quite explain that one.

"Anyone who’s visited the Baby Dolls clubs in the DFW metroplex knows that giving change in $2 bills is a tradition. It’s fairly well-known in Dallas that if you have a pocketful of $2 bills, then you were in Baby Dolls. Of course, this reputation impels men to rid themselves of the pesky bills before they leave the club, which makes life a little better for the workers in the club."

nice lol

Was in the high limit slot room at the Taj about 10 years ago when the woman 3 seats down hits the Jackpot on a $15 /spin machine for $1 million..as the commotion goes on and they bring her her big check (the cardboard one with photos etc she is just sort of ignoring everyone and moves to the next machine..my host walks in and sees me and I say something about her winning and laugh about her lack of excitement and he tells me she won the same jackpot last year.

Was in T.I. last year playing a slot machine when a drunk 20 year old comes stumbling along and proceeds to knock over a woman sitting 2 machines away and then throws up on her..

After spending 8 days in vegas (7-8 years ago) on vacation and blowing through $10K decided to stay up all night to catch my flight at 6 am, went to the Mirage and around 4 am when I was walking out to catch a taxi to the airport I put a $20 in a slot machine and hit a jackpot for $9900. I still remember what that felt like.

Speaking of $2 bills in a casino, Steve Wozniak has a famous story about how he used to take sheets of new $2 bills, cut and gum them into a notepad to peel off one at a time when tipping service staff. Of course, the bills ended up costing him more than two dollars, but what does an Apple multimillionaire care? He got nabbed by the Secret Service. The story on his blog is a funny read.

It's kinda odd that I only saw this once, at AZ Charlie's, but a lady walked up to my BJ table, for some BJ actions ldo, and proceeded to "throw in" (as opposed to she handed it to me) what appeared to me to be match play coupons oslt.

As I reach down to grab these crumbled up coupons, I think to myself "these look too nice to be AZC coupons" AND SHE SAYS "Can I PLEASE get some chips?"

It was like 23 bucks in food stamps. I think that was my first time ever seeing them.

I handed them back to her and politely told her the table's were for cash or established credit lines only. If our cashier doesn't accept them, most likely no one would.

She mumbled something under her breath about free cocktails (I think). She looked like that type. I called them "drunk porters" because they shuffle about the casino floor looking for scraps and **** to pick up (no offense to the profession).

Maaaaaan do I want to start buying sheets of $2 bills...

Go baller and buy sheets of Benjamins.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJ1TIYxm1vM if you want to see Woz tell the story himself.

http://www.moneyfactorystore.gov/ if you want to buy sheets. $2's aren't offered, but you can pick up $1's, $5's, and $20's. 16 $20's is $409. 32 $1's is $61.

My own version of his story is when I handed an Arby's clerk one of the new $20's when they first came out like 15 years ago. She looks at it, scoffs, hands it back and says "very funny". I smile, realizing she hasn't seen one yet, and hand it back to her and explain "no, it's real--they just redesigned it". She glares at me and says something like "this isn't funny anymore." I suggest "You should call the manager over". She goes on "I will! I'll call him over here, and if he sees this he'll call the police." "Please call him." Manager comes over and and she shows him the bill and he asks "what?" She tells him "it's fake--he's trying to pass a fake". Manager sighs and tells her "Stacey! We had a meeting where we talked about this, remember? I told everybody that new $20's were coming out? Remember that? This is one of those new $20's." Stacey says, "what, so you mean it's REAL?!?!?"

I had a friend have a problem with a $2 bill buying an Orange Julius at the mall in about 1989. They called security.

Walking back from the restrooms to the poker room at bellagio, I saw a drunk girl being pushed out of the club in a wheelchair. And then she threw up. All over herself. I laughed at this because it was ****ing funny. Her friends saw me laugh and tried to have security throw me out of the casino. The security guard's facial expression was priceless.
