Casino - Stake funds

[Stickman1990]

New to Seabourn and couldn't find this in earlier threads - I like to have a bit of fun in the Casino and on another line I usually just get US$ cash from the cage and buy chips at the table - but how is this handled on Seabourn (Encore)

 

• Do I need to take some US$ cash along to buy chips? or
• Can I just do a cash draw down for chips and have it added to my account? (if so is there a daily limit - which I'm sure I wont exceed!) - are there any charges associated with the draw down (other than the credit card exchange rate fees I will have for US$ transactions on an Australian card

Yes it’s just added to your onboard account. Have not been on Encore but that’s the way it was on one of the smaller Seabourn ships. Much like Crystal if my memory serves me correctly. 

 

Good Luck!

I'm an avid BJ player and use to play on SB all the time.  Willi is right about you're being able to pull money from the cage which is charged to your onboard account with no fees.  I quit playing BJ on SB when they changed the odds from 3 to 2 to 6 to 5.  (BJ players will understand).
