therefore must be played through the machines at least once.
I can't speak to MGM properties --- I'm not welcome to play there.
However,
at Caesars properties (at least Paris and Planet Hollywood) and at the
Palms, Cashier Vouchers do not have to be played through. You can insert
them and then cash them out immediately. The tickets look almost the
same but the large words "Cashier Voucher" get changed to "Cashout
Ticket" (or some such.) These tickets (assuming they are small enough)
may be redeemed immediately at any change machine.
The Palms tickets only come in $1000 units --- so that's plenty small enough to cash out at a change machine. If you get a marker for $20,000 or so, most places will let you decide what increments you want the Cashout Vouchers in. A request for ten $2,000 vouchers would likely be honored immediately.
I'm not suggesting it's smart to do this on any kind of regular basis --- but it is easily done.
Bob
