On April 19th, I was shortchanged during the color-up at the Beau |
Rivage in Biloxi , a Mirage Resorts Inc. property. I bought in |
for $300.00 and and cashed out for $310.00. The dealer returned |
only $160.00 to me. The pit boss was called over and surveillance |
was notified. Surveillance, indeed, determined that I was |
shortchanged. But they said I was shortchanged for only $100.00 |
I held my ground and told them that I still needed another $50.00. |
They said they would check the tape a second time. After about |
45 minutes of waiting around total, they said that I was incorrect |
and that I was not owed anything more. |
I complained to corporate and told them I would be filing a complaint |
with the Mississippi Gaming Commission. An interim manager at |
the Beau Rivage got back to me and I explained what had happened. |
He said that he would personally review the tape. Earlier today |
he called me and told me that I was correct. They had |
shorted me an additional $45.00. I still maintain that it was |
for $50.00 but $45.00 is close enough. |
When I turned in my chips, $310.00 total, the dealer the dealer |
instantly returned $55.00 of it to me. She then went to color |
up my additional $255.00 consisting of 8 greens 10 reds and 5 |
silver. She then pushed over to me $105.00 total. She made 2 errors. |
She gave me one black for the 8 green and did not give me anything |
for the 10 red thinking that she had already paid me when she |
pushed back the $55.00(2 greens and a red) in my direction. Do |
not ask me why she did it that way. Beau Rivage did compensate |
me one additional black chip on the premises. They will now |
be sending a check for the $45.00 additional error that they |
originally said did not occur. So I am short $5.00 and a lot |
of time. I have never encountered so much bean-counting in |
25 years of casino gambling! |
