Used to be the case. Chips have gone high tech and it is very difficult to get away with it these days. Plus with all the video surveillance, they will track you down.But I don't feel like it would be very hard to counterfeit casino chips and get away with it.

there has never been an easier time to do this... just needs somebody with the gumption and wherewithal to do it.

way to be a debbie downer.If you’re thinking of robbing a Las Vegas casino, and you’re not George Clooney, I have a word of advice: give up now. As Anthony Carleo recently found out, even if you leave the casino in one piece, the chips you stole are going to be worthless long before you make your get away. The 29 year old suspect is accused of robbing the Bellagio on December 14th of 2010, stealing chips whose face value totaled around $1.5 million dollars. Their real value, however, was zero. Thanks to RFID tags embedded inside them, the chips with denominations of $100 to $25,000 could be immediately deactivated rendering them unredeemable for cash value. Watch CCTV footage from the December 14th robbery in the video clip below, followed by the recent press conference from the Las Vegas Police concerning Carleo’s arrest. Stealing worthless chips and then getting caught trying to sell them to undercover officers? Danny Ocean this guy is not.
According to comments made to Minyanville by CHIPCO International, the casino chips used by Bellagio are typical of the industry. Highly specialized markings already make them hard to counterfeit, but embedded RFID tags allow casinos to track their every movement. If a chip is stolen, its ID can be associated with the theft in casino databases, preventing it from being redeemed for cash. Each high tech chip only costs about $2.50 to make, and they ensure that very little theft can succeed.
Actually, they do much more than that. RFID chips are a form of security, but they are also an amazingly precise way of measuring activity in the casino. The Bellagio and its competitors can track how much each table is making or losing, even verifying that dealers are handling each transaction correctly. They can log how much you spend, where you spend it, and use that information to keep you in the game longer with well timed drinks and services catered to your activity. If you’re using high-rolling chips you can almost guarantee that a casino knows what you’re up to. Turns out Big Brother is alive and well, playing craps in Las Vegas.
Finally some legitimately good adviceYou need to cut out the middle man and just make some fake hundred dollar bills. Much easier to fake, and if you pick the right place to mix it in, you're not caught on camera.
FLOAT THE DRYWALL!!!!HARD DELETE!!!! HARD DELETE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wash $1 bills and print $100s on 'em. Pretty easy.Finally some legitimately good adviceYou need to cut out the middle man and just make some fake hundred dollar bills. Much easier to fake, and if you pick the right place to mix it in, you're not caught on camera.
Easier still is finding an ATM service manual online, going into a convenience store with an off-brand, independent ATM, and using the default password, which is rarely changed by the owner, to tell the machine to empty the cash tray, or, re-program it so it thinks it's full of $1 bills instead of $20s. So when you go to withdraw $100 from an untraceable pre-paid debit card, it spits out 100 bills instead of just 5. All 20s, of course, but the machine doesn't know that. Walk out with $2K and go to the next 7-11. Rinse. Repeat.
steal $1 chips. Hold them for ransom.Each high tech chip only costs about $2.50 to make,

I think he already works at Walmart.Or just get a job. All the time and energy spent doing this won't be worth how much you will actually make before being caught, and you would likely make more from some remedial job anyway.
Go mow lawns. Sounds more up your alley.
