Vegas Harvest - Oct 2019 (1 Viewer)

Here is my haul from this month's trip:

406 - Paris $1s (incl 35 new from cage)
27 - Paris $5s
119 - Flamingo $5s (incl 1 LE)
2 - Singles
2 - Drop chips (South Point - Purchased from Poker Room Supervisor. He would only sell 1 per person; Orleans - )

I posted this in another thread, but seems relevant here too:
While talking to Paris cage supervisor, I asked about new/mint $1s & she said the most she'd let me have is 20 & at most 2 $5s. I got the 20 $1s & came back the next day asking to trade a barrel of used $1s for new. Thought it might be easier with a technicality of exchange $1s vs buying $1s from the cage. Cashier had to check & he was told to tell me this was the last time. Of the second barrel, 15 were new & 5 were not. If you can get more than 20-40 brand new $1s out of Paris, you are a magician.

Impressive! Congrats

Great haul, I wonder how many $1’s Paris lose a month?

 

[wonderpuddle]

Very nicely done!

Lets say for fun they lose a barrel per day. Many tourists take singles as well.

Thats about 600 chips per month or 7,000 per year.

I bet its around there or more.

They have probably lost that to this forum in the last year too.

I'll wager they lose closer to 60 a day

I also think that’s probably a low estimate. There’s a reason Paris $1s are almost never beat up. They disappear too quickly.

There is at least 1 employee that is grudgingly ordering new chips frequently.

Wonder how quickly a house mold would pay for itself

I know people live the Flamingo $1 but that $5 is 5x better!

One time during this trip I was playing craps at the $10 table. I was crammed in next to the dealer and couldn’t see the bank because of the angle, the dealer was blocking my view. The shooter was rolling a lot of numbers & I was pocketing all the 1s that I was winning. Before long the pit boss taps me on the shoulder & says “Brian, I can’t have you pocket any more 1s. You’re depleting the table. Either color up some of the 1s or you have to leave. I gave about 10 back & when the shooter sevened out, the pit boss was at the opposite table & I slipped away.

2 lessons. If you’re harvesting: 1) don’t give them your players card & 2) keep moving. I never give my players card at Paris, except this one time. Now I wonder if he put a note in my file??

thats great advice thanks. My friend was hot at craps last June and walked with 90+ 1 dollar chips over about half an hour

Dealer was also confused about where the 1s were going lol

I"ll take the flamingo 5's please, thanks

Brand new in the past 30 days or so. I thought maybe for $4/$8 limit, but no just for the rake I think. Didn’t pay attention to what they were dropping though.

I just keep the chips in the craps table rail, and scoop up everything into my pockets when I leave. Never had anybody (a dealer or the floor) ask me to color-up.
