Which casino?

The Garbagecana, er, Tropicana in Las Vegas.
This was over fifteen years ago, and I have not set foot in the
place since.
BTW, to answer another poster's implied question, we didn't go to
Gaming because we didn't think the cameras would pick up the dice
given their somewhat hidden position--of the twenty players at the
table, only the three of us could even see them--AND the stickman,
who had to crane his neck to see, then undoubtedly realized in a
flash that the dice WERE in fact "invisible", and exploited the
situation. Why the hell he did this, I have no idea. If his crew was
stealing chips (or giving them to playing confederates), then
presumably they would need a few "extra" wins to keep the table from
showing a loss. I feel that what the stickman did was with full
knowledge and apoproval of management, however, given the way we
were unceremoniously hustled out of there, and not given a chance to
tell our side of the story.
