I've been 86ed from many casinos for Advantage Play, too many to count. I've been backroom a number of times and even roughed up for Advantage play.
I was among some of the first people to be delivered a certified hand-delivered letter from a casino with a trespassing notice. Here was the case where I actually knew somebody on the inside, so I was expecting the letter. When they arrived I had my then-girlfriend deal with it so I never signed for it myself. I don't know if it matters if I sign for it or not.
Whatever the case, I went back a few months later and played, I just didn't use a players card. I'm not sure how long had gone by perhaps a few years, eventually I said fuck it and attempted to get a player's card. Not really to my surprise, they issued me one I've been playing there ever since on and off for years, and hit jackpots. I recently bet tens of thousands of dollars on sports there.
I've been back to places where I was falsely arrested/jailed, attorneys were involved, and agreements were signed and yet I went back anyways and played hit jackpots never had an issue.
.
I've been back and played at just about every casino I've ever been 86ed from. There have been occasions where I go back and I get surrounded by security and ask to leave again.
I never went back to the Stardust because that was pretty serious. I'm confident if I went back to the Stardust and played, I would have been arrested. I don't think I've been back to the LongHorn, but that's just because I have no reason to go back there. I'm sure there's been some out-of-state casinos that I never went back to as well, but there have been very few out of state casinos I have been 86ed from.
Wonderful post! This is part of advantage play for a living. Figuring out how to navigate this part of the deal.
Casinos don't have to know your name to know you. They can know you by face. But you don't want to make it easier for them by playing rated. especially table games.
Axel, ever had a phone call telling you not to come back or could play certain games? I received a call form Club Fuck (henderson), where the general manager told me no more blackjack, which is a backoff, not an 86. The phone call surprised me a bit, but I guess being a small place and all.
Also have had a security dude at LongHorn chase me into the parking lot and right off property. Maybe that is a right of passage, I don't know. (Not really). Card counters like to say a backoff from El Cortez is a right of passage. I never bought that either.
I haven't had many trespass or 86, but I have had many "no more blackjack" and almost always return to play blackjack.

Now we have the new 2 year law trespass law that I will be putting to the test next year.
