Taking chips or tokens that you have paid or is not stealing and the casinos know that. Anyone who has ever played a Silver Strike machine knows this. The strikes mostly are $10 gaming tokens which can be used to gamble with in the casino although this is rarely done. These tokens belong to the casino yet on the silver strike machine are the words Souvenir Coins which means the casino expects you to walk off with some. You are not stealing. Commemorative chips the casino expects you to walk off with some and actually want you to. You are not stealing. If you walk off with a NCV or Roulette chip that you paid for you are not stealing just because the casino doesn't want you taking them. They can't have it both ways.

If it is stealing let the BOD make it illegal for a member to buy and sell roulettes and NCV's.
