    Not sure exactly what the question is, but...

    All 100's go on the table or in the slot.

    When I need smaller bills, I just use one of the TITO/ATM machines.

    My bankroll is all hundreds.

    I bring $100 in 20s for travel cash and incidentals and whatever 1s I can gather together for tips.

    The only thing I break down are twenties to fives and ones for tips. I usually break down a couple $20's for 5 $5s and $15 in singles. That usually last me maybe a couple days. I take out a LOC - so I rarely carry large any more except when I intend to play somewhere I don't have a LOC.

    All hundos. When I get to my hotel I'll go to the cage each morning, after breakfast, and get a mix of $1 & $5 chips for tipping housekeeping and CWs. Rinse and repeat as needed.

    A wad of 400 singles wrapped with a single hundred...

    In actuality, usually all hundreds for the gambling, a few hundred worth of 20s, and a handful of 5s and 1s for tipping.

    Gaming bankroll:
    • 60-70% in 100's
    • 30-40% in 20's
    • 0% ever in 50's
    Tips:
    • $5 bill for each night at the hotel for housekeeping
    • $5 bill for the bell desk to store my bags if the room is not ready upon arrival
    • $5 bill for bell service to bring my bags to the room if I've had to store them at the desk
    • 2x $1 bills for each day in Vegas for drink tips (why only $2 per day you might ask? I invariably end up with singles from my TITOs, and use those throughout the remainder of the trip for drink tips. I'm also not a very big drinker, maybe 3-4 drinks per day)
    • 2x $20 bills for each way of a round-trip airport transfer car service (e.g. Presidential) if I'm not doing Lyft/Uber

    Mostly Benjamins for gambling and Washingtons for tips. I use plastic and Apple Pay for other purchases to maximize my rewards points that I received with my credit cards, so I often don't carry around a lot of cash, other than a few 20s and 5s.
