Grabbing a stack of $100's off the crap table and running for the exit, isn't quite the same thing.

Another hint. Don't be the only one playing roulette, in the whole casino. The two times I got stopped it was quiet. This should be an obvious point, but when I was at a little casino 230 miles from home, it was worth the try to get two roulettes.

Most of the time, I play my last bet, lose (that's easy) and before they can finish paying off winners and sorting all the chips, I'm walking.

I've never taken a whole stack, I guess that's for "professional" collectors. (as in cluck, cluck, I'm chicken) I can easily explain that I was just taking two as a memory. It's hard to say, I was just taking 20 for my personal collection.

Ask some professional harvester about getting caught with 20 of multiple colors in his pockets. That should make a good story.
