either 3k / 6k. if too much don't use that, don't wish to ruin ur future. put ur money to amex account b4 buy that. the advantage of doing is because of 5x pts + cashback. if u only go once a month and on weekend, then u actually just spend 2875 to buy 3k chip. (5x pts equal to RM75 + cashback 50). on top of that u got free stay at luxury room and free buffet meal. these are the only advantage u get. so count the cost b4 u decide to go.

Just want to get some clarifications.
With the 3x 1k NN chips, let's say I throw 1k on table to exchange smaller chips, 10x RM100.
The RM100 chips is the normal/standard black colour chips ? Or still in NN chips ?

i.e. is it that simple to cash it ? Or I need to bet the 10x RM100 NN chips on table, if strike, they'll pay me and also change the NN chips placed in bet to cash chip ?

still NN chip bro. different colour, size a bit big compared to normal cash chip. NN500 is red, NN100 is blue, NN50 is yellow, NN25 NN10 is white if i not mistaken. normally i change to NN100 blue and whack few hundred a round till it finish.

There is no way to cenvert your non-negotiable chips to cash chips. In other words, when you buy the package of RM3,000 non-negotiable chips, you have to prepare to lose the entire RM3,000 capital investment.

there're method to do that. but of course the house have the edge. why not u play roulette, u place all 37 number, u sure kena 1 number right? so u only lose 1/37 of 3000 which is RM81 only.

that's why i say this package for gambler lo..

You lose 36 out of 37 actually.

yes, u lose 36 number but u strike 1 number and they give u back 36x of 1/37, so indirectly u just converting it to cash chip. u lose 81 but what u get in return? 2 night stay worth more than 400, 4 buffet meal worth 60 per pax. even u not a gambler u may consider take this also if u would have plan a trip to genting. how much u pay for check in hotel? ur food and beverage? bro it worth the price. and like i say, it was like a double edged sword. can bring u good thing and harm u at the same time if u not control it properly.

@timetraveller
have u tried converting nn chips to cash chips on big small table?

Top up touch & go can use AMEX?

no, i no play big small de, coz of higher house edge (disadvantage to player). and i also not converting it, i poke it bro. depend on luck, sometimes bump into nice table, i buy the 3k package bring back 8k cash back home. no luck ma lose all lo. i small punter only.

why not place 1.5k in odd, 1.5k in even, that mean u does not gain anything or lose anything

Then the RM1,500 non-negotiable chips become RM750, then half again, and so on.

Aren't the payout 2x for Big/Small ?

Depends on the merchant.

if open 0 in roulette, u lose entire 3k. if open 111,222,333,444,555,666 at dice, u lose entire 3k also

but wont they feel weird ? they might report it to their head

this is permissible. lot uncle did that ma. but beware, open banker they will tax u 5% of ur winning. this is the rule of baccarat.

5% of RM1500 = RM75.
Lose RM75 in baccarat, better than lose RM81 in roulette.

If both times banker than total commission is RM75*2 ?

But IR has same package with hotel stay and buffet ?

Where to find out about the package?

You charge the RM3,000 package to your Amex during weekday, you will get 15,000 TPs equivalent to RM75 cash back. That amount equals to the commission that you need to pay.

You only need to factor in the travelling cost to Genting.
