00:00Please call the police, sir. Please call the police. I'd like to cash out. I'd like to cash out. Please
00:06call the police.
00:07Got your ID on you? Okay, sir, can you please? Is there a reason why you need to see my
00:10ID? Can I keep playing, sir? No, you may not play. Why not? Why can't I play? You're also backed
00:15off from playing all Blackjack games in my 16-0. Wait, so what's the reason, though? Take the glasses off,
00:20sir. If I take my glasses off, can I play Blackjack? No. Why not? I'm gonna ask you one more
00:24time. Wait, why can't I? Can I just get a reason, sir?
00:27The reason is a lot more ridiculous than you think.
00:34That's all right, but can I get a reason why I can't play Blackjack, sir? Number two, who may not
00:39play Blackjack in the casino? Why not? I'm gonna ask you one time, get up and come with us. Totally
00:44understand. Can I get a reason why? Let's go. I'm okay. I mean, if you guys would like to call
00:52the police, I'm okay with that, right? I'm okay with you guys calling the police to get it official.
00:55This is a private property. They tried to kick him out, but he wasn't gonna give up his winnings easily.
01:00It's time to go. But, could I get a reason why I'm not allowed to play Blackjack, sir? I'm sorry,
01:04but, well, sir, why can't I play Blackjack?
01:06Sir, you're gonna be barred for disruption of operations. Could I get a reason, guys, why I can't play Blackjack?
01:12Can I cash out?
01:13This did you hear? No, I have chips, sir.
01:15They just handed you money on the table. I have chips, sir. I'd like to cash out. Okay.
01:19Where's the cashier, sir? I'd like to cash out, sir. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm going to cash out today.
01:28They were not letting him get away with it. Why can't I cash out?
01:33Could I? I'm going to cash out, sir. I'm going to cash out. Whoa, what is going on? Whoa, whoa,
01:40whoa, what is going on?
01:41My officer, get your chips. Please call the police, sir. Please call the police. Call the police. I'd like to
01:47cash out. I'd like to cash. Please call the police. Call the police. Call the police. Call the police.
01:52Get the chips to my officer here. He's going to cash out.
01:54And what allegedly came next was even more sinister.
01:58I was handcuffed, detained, and dragged across the casino floor into a back room.
02:04A casino back room is where casinos can do some really shady stuff because it's away from the public eye.
02:10Thankfully, while I was being dragged, I made enough of a ruckus to the public about my illegal detention that
02:17by the time we got to the back room, there were multiple police officers waiting.
02:21He wasn't sure if seeing the police in the back rooms was a reassuring or a worrying sight.
02:26Now, I could simply explain to law enforcement that I'm just a card counter and all I want to do
02:31is cash out and leave.
02:34After five minutes of questioning, the officers quickly sided with me and demanded the casino cash me out.
02:39Of course, the casino also made sure to give me a trespass form.
02:43This was by far the single most violent back off I've ever experienced as a professional card counter, and it
02:49could have got much worse.
02:51As an advantage player, make sure you know your rights.
02:55Even on tribal land, they cannot illegally detain you, they cannot illegally attack you, and always, always, always refuse to
03:02go inside a back room.
