    Must have a minimum 600 hours combined play on all casino games. Once you learned how to win, adjust or control your losses, training is nothing but formalities.

    In my years of teaching Surveillance personnel I've found ex-Pit personnel can be the hardest to train in the art, simply because they think they already know the games. They may know how to deal, but they don't know the perspectives of the cheats, the advantage players, or others who would attempt to alter the random outcome of the games. Admittedly this is "type-casting" opinion is based on the candidates length of experience in the pit, in my experience it is hard to train an experience dealer or Pit Supervisor in Slot or Cashier operations, or any of the other numerous areas Surveillance personnel must observe.

    The business itself speak for it, primarily though training can be made anytime for other fields, still gaming experience is a must for a start, i saw and experience a big difference about this where operator doesn't have gaming exposure working as an operator it all ends up a hunch when it comes to investigating, monitoring and assesing an incidents or actions of every individual pertaining to casino activities alone..
    Well not to discourage inexperience coz everything can be learn anyway but it really consume time.... time is one of the factor how to lose and make money......... cheers Jie of gapo

    I too like a mix but gravitate to gaming experience. The problem is to find those who fit the Surveillance role, they tend not to last long.

    I prefer to have a collection of different backgrounds: gaming, security, law enforcement, military, and right out of college.
