But , according to some regular 'attendees' , they really miss the sound of coins being spit out of the bandits when a 'win' happens . From what I understand , the machines use players cards . Those are issued by the casinos . I really don't know if the machines accept Credit Cards . It wouldn't surprise me if they did . Goes around , comes around .

Optimistic Paranoid Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 From the web site 10 THINGS YOU CAN'T (EASILY) BUY WITH CREDIT CARDS: *1. Chips in a casino. Even though casinos are legal, make sure you bring cash if you're planning to play the roulette table. Most states have gaming regulations that prohibit casinos from accepting a credit card for gambling chips, says Gary Thompson, a spokesman for Caesars Entertainment, which owns casino resorts on three continents. Even without those rules, however, the industry's own Responsible Gaming Program bars the practice. Of course, you can always use your credit card to get a cash advance, for a sizeable fee, at a casino ATM Still, Thompson believes that extra step creates a psychological barrier. "If you run out of chips when you're gambling, this forces you to get up, walk away from the table, apply for the cash advance, and then go the casino cage to get your chips," he says. "What that does is give you time to think about whether you're going over your cash-imposed limit. We believe it stops some people from doing something impulsive." https://www.creditcards.com/credit-card-news/10-things-credit-cards-wont-easily-buy-1267.php Regards John DON'T FEED THE VULTURES!

dartmouth01 Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 Plenty ATMs at casinos tho! So if you need cash on the road, a casino is as good any place to get some. Ok, maybe not as good, unless you're good at counting cards. And as I said before, credit unions using the Co-op network. Free atms nationwide, including some at casinos I bet.

Even better part of the story, we didn't even make it to the hospital, she was born in the TV. Everyone says the 1st one takes longer than it seems in the movies, well the labor was very much moviesque.
