Most casinos smartly operate that way. This avoids things escalating,a patron getting hurt and suing them for a lot of money.its not worth the risk for them over someone beating them for a little bit of money. Plus they really don't want to draw attention to it.If there are other players are the table they'll often politely ask you to step away from the table and then discreetly tell you no more bj. MOST pit bosses these days aren't trying to make your life hell.tjeyre trying to do their job,get some praise for kicking out a counter (even if he sucks and is a -ev player) and go home to their family.
They might politely ask for id but usually unless you're cashing a lot of chips they just say"I'm sorry you cant play anymore blackjakc but you can play anything else"
It's stupid to argue back at this point
Their mind is made up just leave and try not to be memorable.
As long as they're respectful be respectful back.Theyll remember the dickhead who curses them out for no reason a lot more than someone polite.
I've had several casinos ask me for id after playing blackjack and I refused every time
Usually the cashier looks at you funny but gives you the money
Once it was bc it was over 3k and that was their bs policy
I'd cashed out more than 2500 and less than 3,000 before with no issue
It was a locals casino and they would ask what you were playing and then call the pit to verify
I took my chips back
and said my id is in my room safe at a different hotel and cashed them out over 2 trips the next 2 days
Once it got really nasty with dirt bag a pit boss tresspassinfg me and refusing to cash my chips without showing my id
He even had the nerve to tell me it's bc I could be under 21 which was obviously bullshit as I don't look anywhere near that young and told him you let me walk in the door reload 3 times play for an hour and order 2 beers and nobody asked for id I'm not showing it now
I should have just left right away
They told me they were calling the cops I told them good please do
After 20 minutes of me waiti he tells me they're sick of my **** and they're gonna cash them out and then security escorted me out
Dirt bag pit then flyered my picture to other casinos and in the next 2 days I got thrratened with a tresspass and tresspassed at 2 places I never got so much as backed off before-clearly it was all related. in fact the place that threatened me with a tresspass had always been super tolerant,handled action well and I had just run like absolute god there. I hadn't played there in at least 6 months and they are an independent casino.
Before this first tresspass I had never been tresspassed before anywhere in 250ish hours of Vegas blackjack over a 2 year period or even heard the word tresspass mentioned.
I had been told no more blackjack politely probably 10-12 times before this but nothing ever rude.
If I happen to be in Vegas while people are wearing masks I am 100 percent playing in all of these places again
