Ask the Slot Expert: Treat tickets like cash30 May 2012
Ouch. That's one of the perils of tickets. A lot of value can be concentrated in one small piece of paper. It's tough to steal seven $100 bills from someone, but not as tough to steal one ticket worth $700. I'm amazed that some players tell me they've been hassled for cashing out $10 to $20 they've found on a machine or playing similarly valued tickets they've found, yet here is a casino that can't do anything for a much larger amount. But I do understand the casino's position. Even though they may have footage of the person who cashed in the ticket, if she isn't known to them, they have no way to recover the money. Two things to learn from this story: 1. Treat your tickets like cash. 2. If you lose a ticket, report it right away. The casino can invalidate the ticket and issue you a new one -- if it hasn't already been redeemed.
