yeah you can just leave your money inside on deposit in 500 euro increments. I would advise never carrying money outside unless you are directly going to get a taxi from right outside.
It was bad 10 years ago when I went.
Ridiculous the situation is still bad all these years later.
I rented a boat in the harbour at Port Olimpic a few months ago for WPT (not nearly as balla as it sounds!)
Had to run the gauntlet of all the guys outside everytime I walked down to the boats, they just latch on to you and follow you, first try to sell you beer and then drugs and then just follow you. Eye contact or stopping is fatal. Anywhere along the beach is the same.
I've lived in some rough places like South London and Oakland, California and even so I was intimidated.
Such a great city but yeah, if you leave the casino walking with cash in your pocket at night then you are taking a big risk. Be sensible everyone and GL at Estrellas Keith...
