What method do Casinos give you your winnings?

Question

Do they give you cash, a check or what do they do pay you your winnings?

I've never been to a casino*

Answer 1

Typically you are payed cash, maybe they will write a check if you win some kind of megahuge progressive jackpot, or more likely just wire the money right into your bank since you woudl need a handtruck to haul around a couple of million in cash.

You can fit about 7500 dollars in one wallet if you have very few credit cards

And i regularly stuff 10k into my 2 wallets, i also carry a money clip in case my winning are particularly large that night, i also carry a small ziplock bag to keep chips in as you can carry a few high denomination chips much easier than all cash.

I have made chip/cash transactions as high as 6k at a time with now problems.

Answer 2

No one wins, don't kid yourself. They love first timers as you might get up $100 and think wow, they love making new comers win because then they get the gambling bug and not only put that $100 back but the rest of their life savings it's all a scam.

Answer 3

You can take cash, but if you are a bit leery about wandering around with a lot of cash on you, - take a casino cheque.

In some places you can leave your money with the casino, and kind of use the casino as your bank...  This is not something all countries are happy with.

Answer 4

99% of the time in cash. There is no limit on the cash. I won 86K in Binions and they had to pay me in twenties. You can take a cheque as to not attract attention. Or pay off some markers.

Answer 5

it depends on the amount of the winnings i dont know where the cut off is for cash but you dont want to be walking out of a casino with wads of cash that someone may have just seen you won
