Somewhere during the past two months I read that some casinos sell, through their gift shops, "Win Cards," where you pay $20 for $30 worth of free play. The great part about these promotional "chips" is that they don't lose their value until you lose the hand. In other words, the casino continues to pay you for their value as long as you continue to win, rather than being "swept" after a single use. Does LVA know about these cards?

I recently watched a TV program called "Cheating Las Vegas". One person featured was a slot cheat named Dennis Nikrasch, who stole 10, perhaps 16 million dollars from Vegas slots in the '70s and '80s. He was caught, spent 7 1/2 years in prison, was released in 2004, and died in 2010. However, there was never any mention of what happened to all that money. Do you know if he spent it all, if some of it was recovered, or what may have happened to it?
