Casino credit

patswin · Jul 1, 2009

Question for those who frequent casinos, do you get credit lines in the casinos you play in or just use cash? What are the advantages if any to getting a credit line at a casino? Is it because it is more convienent that carrying cash? Or does it help with comps? I am going to a local casino for a few nights soon and was considering getting a credit line but I am not sure if it is worth it or not

If you get liquored up and get in over your head, you have to pay it off right away, or you go to jail. It's a criminal matter, not a civil matter.

The casinos run that town and make their own laws. Other than that, I can't see any disadvantages.

i have numerous lines in vegas and the bahamas....i find it helps with comps.........the pitboss knows you are staying there or thinks you are if you have a line and they usually rate you a little higher........ :laugh:

just dont go over your head while gambling...............@)

I like casino markers. I don't like to carry cash

thanks cp i think I will try for a small line to see how it works out, I'm already getting comped 2 nights so I don't need much but thought it would be easier than carrying cash. I play mostly video poker or bacarrat and am good about not betting over my limits. We'll see what happens
