THANK YOU JIM FOLLIS....

I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW ABOUT THE CIRCA GRAND OPENING CHIP TILL HE POSTED A PICTURE OF ONE.

ON OPENING NIGHT, I ASKED SEVERAL DEALERS IF THEY HAD ANY GRAND OPENING AND THEY ALL SAID NO. THE DEALERS ARE ALL ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS WITH UPSTAIRS ENHANCEMENTS X 2. THEY WERE ALL SUPER NICE BUT WERE OBVIOUSLY VERY NEW AT DEALING CARDS. THEY DID A GREAT JOB IN A HECTIC NIGHT. THE PIT BOSSES WERE ALL VERY HELPFUL ANSWERING THEIR MANY QUESTIONS AND ASSISTING THE PUBLIC. THEY WERE ALL TOP NOTCH AND VERY PROFESSIONAL.

THIS MORNING, I WENT UP TO THE LOWER LEVEL CIRCA CASINO CAGE AND ASKED FOR A $100.00 CIRCA GRAND OPENING CHIP. THE LADY SAID SHE DIDN’T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THOSE. SHE EVEN ASKED ANOTHER GIRL IN THE CAGE AND SHE TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE ALL PUT ON THE TABLES OPENING NIGHT. I WALKED OVER TO THE TABLE GAMES AND ASKED A PIT BOSS ABOUT THE CHIPS AND SHE TOLD ME THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY AND TO ASK THE CASINO CAGE. I EXPLAINED TO HER THEY SENT ME OVER TO THE TABLE GAMES FOR THE CHIPS AND I SHOWED HER A PICTURE OF THE ONE JIM POSTED. SHE APOLOGIZED BUT COULD NOT HELP ME.

I DECIDED TO GO UPSTAIRS TO THE SECOND CIRCA CASINO CAGE NEXT TO THE HIGHT LIMIT ROOM. THOSE GIRLS SAID THE SAME THING AS THE CASINO CAGE DOWNSTAIRS. THE CAGE MANAGER CAME OUT SI ASKED HER IF SHE COULD PLEASE CHECK THE BACK AND SHE AGREED. SHE BROUGHT OUT ME A SHINY NEW $100.00 CIRCA GRAND OPENING CHIP JUST FOR ME. THE GAGE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT SHE DIDN’T EVEN KNOW ABOUT THESE CHIPS TILL SHE SAW ONE BROUGHT BACK TO THE CAGE ON OPENING NIGHT. SHE EVEN THOUGHT IT WAS A COUNTERFEIT TILL SHE LOOKED INTO IT A BIT MORE. SHE THOUGHT SOME ARE HELD BACK POSSIBLY FOR SPECIAL PLAYERS OR EVEN THE HOTEL GRAND OPENING ON DECEMBER 28TH.

EITHER WAY, I WAS VERY HAPPY TO GET MY CHIP. IF I WAS NOT THERE FOR OPENING NIGHT, I WOULD NOT SPEND $100.00 FOR ONE BUT I’M VERY HAPPY TO HAVE THIS SPECIAL CIRCA CHIP.

THE SECURITY IS ALSO GREAT. MANY SECURITY GUARDS POSTED AT DOORS CHECKING ID’S AND TEMPERATURES. THEY ALSO HAVE YOU TAKE YOUR MASK DOWN TO MATCH UP THE ID WITH THE FACE. DON’T HAVE A ID OR DRIVERS LICENSE?? THEN, YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED IN!
THEY SCAN YOUR ID ON THE REAR STRIP AND IT’S PUT INTO A PROPERTY DATA BASE. IF YOU CASH IN A HIGHER AMOUNT OF CHIPS, THEY REQUIRE YOU TO TAKE YOUR MASK DOWN SO THE CAMERA GETS A GOOD SHOT OF YOU.

THIS IS VERY SMART OF THESE HIGH END CASINOS. IF THEY HAVE A DRUNKEN FIGHT OR A RIP OFF, THEY CAN ID YOU AND FOWARD THE VIDEO AND INFORMATION TO THE LVPD.

CIRCA IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL & TOP SHELF ALL THE WAY.
