The only casinos I have found that accept credit cards for markers are in Reno. I wait the 30 days, pay with a rewards card, get another 30 days to pay my credit card off if I time it right, and the cashback reward. I have not found a casino in Las Vegas that will do this.

I tried this in my last visit to Harrahs Reno. Doesn’t work. SInce I am 7* they will refund the cash advance fee, but I have to cash advance the credit card, THEN pay off the marker. I called the Total Rewards credit card, and you do not get any points for cash advances, even in a Total Rewards casino.
Clarification please. What is it in Bob’s column on August 5, that you are referring to ?

This was the thread that said you could pay off a marker with a credit card. NOT accumulating a cash advance fee, and getting card points for the charge.
