One way to trick the system is to use a powerful electro-magnet or microwave device, in your room, to neutralize some of the RFIDs and render them invisible to the system. Then you could use mostly neutralized chips during +counts. zg
Here's an RFID-ZAPPER made from a cheap camera -​


WEAPONS: The RFID zapper


Radio frequency IDs (RFIDs), small electronic chips that share information when scanned, are rapidly becoming an essential part of global supply management. In order to correctly route and track items from inception to purchase, these chips are attached to packaging and increasingly the products themselves.


The intentional disabling of these chips can cause supply chain disruption. The best method is to HERF (high energy radio frequency, usually microwaves) the chips using a small transmitter (read about high power home made microwave weapons for herfing). The German branch (privacy activists) of the global guerrilla innovation network has developed a simple solution (Archive copy) that converts a standard film camera into a short range RFID zapper.

Seems a simple thing to overcome with a partner. Just keep ratholing chips and trading them with your partner. Heck, you can probably do it with a civvie by making change for them. Do the same with your drinks.

Line your pockets with a nice mesh cage. A Fraday rathole.

I read that a Mylar pouch shields RF chips.
Should be easy to line your pockets with mylar.

Who uses this or intends to use this?

Does anyone know what casinos(if any thus far) are using this or intend to use these "chips in the chips"? You have to wonder about the cost-effectivesness of such a thing.

It may be expensive in the short term, but profitable in the long term.
