It's been a few years for me mate and I can well imagine they would need to sort it out, the only problem with that is that it's money earned by gambling which as a croupier you will know can be won and lost in minutes! it may be a deterrent but as a solution it is still seriously lacking especially when you consider all the bookies out there which alot of gamblers from casino's visit, tracking gambling money is near impossible and would take armys of employees to enforce, logging amounts is very different to tracing and then trying to enforce any actions upon said money, I can see where it may come in handy in on going cases where individuals may be under surveillance for money laundering to clean money from serious crimes I.E guns and class A sales ranging into the possible hundreds of K's but for small amounts of multiple thousands I don't see it being a problem and it certainly won't be putting me off mateYears ago you might have got away with it maybe but not any more, since the "proceeds of crime" bollocks they went silly and wrote certain responsibility's into the casino's licensing objectives.
You have to provide ID when you hit £1000 these days and that's collective, they may well let you keep visiting and paying (they want the money after all) but trust me they inform the authorities as to your actions.
