Katie,
That would work fine, except from the MOMENT I walk up with my purse in hand, they start watching me <g>. I usually just palm a few and drop them in my pocket while placing bets on the layout with the other hand, or while the ball's spinning I stand there and watch the ball drop with my hands inconspicuosly in my pockets.

Thanks for the idea though. Next time I'll try going in drag and maybe the purse thing won't seem so obvious <VBG>.
