I was on vacation in Zimbabwe, staying at the famous Victoria Falls Hotel. Next door was the Kingdom Casino. One night we went over after dinner. They were using the Makasa chips at the casino and I harvested two pockets full of chips, not roulettes, denominated chips. On the way out, I was stopped at the door by a casino manager accompanied by a security guard carrying an automatic weapon. Automatic weapons are not unusual there, it is a dangerous place, the economy had just collapsed. They explained that I couldn't leave with their chips and walked me over to the cage to cash out. I emptied one pocket of chips to their satisfaction and walked out with the other pocket of chips. The security guard escorted us all the way to the door of our hotel, because of the danger of walking in Zimbabwe at night.
