Default Does the Casino Give you Big Comps When you Turn In Cheaters?

Good Evening Everyone, If Lets say I seen someone Past Posting at BLACKJACK, If I Alert the Casino and Advise them to "Check The Film" Will they give me big Comps?

P.S. I have NOT seen anyone do this, Ive heard from a friend he did this and was Rewarded BIG, Im just wondering if he could be telling the truth.

Write back
Thanks!
Carmine.

No! Christ no, don't even think about it. If you see a cheater, just get the hell out of there (only on a negative count, of course!) Nothing good can come of it. Casinos reward players for exactly one thing, which is being a loser. If you rat on a cheat you will incur both the wrath of the cheat and his accomplices, and the suspicion of the casino.

yup sounds like he was lying, and narcing is wrong, unless you are dealing with a real crime, and i tell you, stealing from a place that preys on addicted gamblers and could care less about anything else, is not a crime in my book.. im guessing if you asked for a reward, they would look at you like "wow, what a narc" and maybe offer you something worth $10, because remember, they are not robots, the pc are real people, and real people dont like narcs.. i would only narc for $100+, and im poor as hell

a real old dude sitting at first base, was sliding black under green as the dealer got to third base (and couldnt see him real well) on his winning hands. I said nothing, just minded my own business. this went on for 45 minutes-an hour. he must have cleared a 3 grand, got up, and left. I was thinking security would show up or something. the old geezer walked right over to the cage, cashed out, and left.

Initially, my head is going off like the fourth of july... surveillance must have called in sick! nobody is watching! then i figure security wouldnt be so nice to me if I got caught.

surveillance isnt what you think, according to many books i have read, and what i have been told by the majestic star when i had my wallet stolen.. they are not watching every table (not to say its not being recorded) 24/7 and reading dates off of dimes and seeing if som1 has clipped their fingernails.. it varies by casino tho.. majestic star told me they only have cameras on the tables, and a couple cameras watching the floor, but they are not good quality and some parts of the casino are never watched unless they are told to pan over there

Personally, I would never turn someone in who was cheating against the house. I would leave the table, but I wouldn't turn them in. Casinos deserve it.

i personally take AM's advice in this situation and that is "get the hell out of there." you really don't want to be anywhere near a cheat when you are playing because if they get caught everyone at the table will be a "person of interest."

turning in a cheat will only arouse suspicion in YOU. the casino isn't going to put you on the payroll....

I would turn in your mother if I thought it would help. Why not?
