well here in South Australia, there are no photos allowed to be taken inside the casino. it may be the rule for every casino, but im not too sure.

I think if you asked and explained to the staff and your fellow players, they would probably let you.

Yes – you want to get permission first from the floor staff.

I know in Nevada, they’ve become much more allowing of personal photography in the casinos. Still a good idea to ask if it’s ok if others are around. People generally don’t like pictures taken of them betting.

I’ll never forget when the racetrack I frequent had a news crew covering a story about the facility. The reporter and cameraman were having a very hard time finding someone willing to be filmed making a wager at the window. I didn’t want to be filmed, either.

They generally do not allow photos to be taken in the casinos. However, I’ve found in the poker rooms it is much more lax. I usually have a camera with me and do take photos of friends playing poker or posing with their chip stacks. I try to be quick and discreet as well.

The reason we don’t like photo’s being taken is two fold,
1 we must ensure the security of our other guests,
2 it could be used to make a plan of the casino for less than honest reasons. If you ask the manager it shouldn’t be much of a problem.
