Belly, this is what I mean by you being clueless. I'd frame this as a "gotcha" for me, but what's the point? The rationale isn't for accepting checks (chips). Obviously, I never wrote that. It's for the casino GIVING you checks. You can request whatever you like. The casino isn't obligated to fulfill your request.
Consider that a free life lesson. "You can get your checks out anytime you like, but some can never leave."
