No, it doesn't. And the floor walkers love to pull 'em out for a hand pay,
a fill, paper out.... And if you say anything they look at you like a calf

I will disagree for the most part. I do think the computer system keeps
track of patial points. The ones that only take a buck or two for a point really
don't matter.
My reference is Golden Nugget in Laughlin where a point takes $26.25 to
$37.50 to show-up. At least in the same gambling day you get the counter to
reflect the partial countdown. It even considers denominations.
The "One Club" scares me. But they are going to shoot that horse right
square between the eyes by New Years. I can't even get the same totals on-line, at
a slot club or on the floor. Death to the One Club!
