Money laundering obviously. Can encash chips and declare as winnings from casino for clean money, casinos don't track player winnings by identity. Same as buying toto/4d winning tickets, they usually pay a premium so the actual winners will be enticed to sell them.
Yah loh like those iron rice bowl type of workers need wash clean some of their earning/kopi money.. win from casino is one way

Casinos do track all players who have their cards registered. No card, no chips exchange in some cases.

MBS staffs strictly enforce card ID, esp during peak periods.
Huh simi card? Membership card? Last I went I have none of those and yet staffs happily served me regardless. Membership cards are not mandatory.

I got fren who won 50k in a few hours yet didn't register any card. He still can encash his chips without problems.

Even without membership card, any withdrawal more than $5k need to produce form of ID for verification by cashier supt. Unless your friend cash out at $4.9k each time that will take 10 times to cash out and will raise suspicion.

Why they buy from 3rd party?
Cheaper?
No need to queue?

Some people already maxed out their daily atm withdrawal rate and in need of chips, sometimes got people ask around weather can paynow etc for chips to save the 3% credit / debit card withdrawal fee from the cage.

My fren won fair and square so no probs encashing his whole winnings. Money launderers are taught to only withdraw max $3k at one time to avoid suspicion.

Non members also can encash chips or exchange chips, only need ID or passport

No prob for money launderers, even better with ID as proof they 'won' their winnings and not just money came from nowhere. Since they only check ID when cashing out, not cashing in.

50k is a ton of money u can't even make that from trading in a shorter time than a casino, the casino will always be faster than trading and higher risk also. On a side note I saw one guy put 10k on the table bet player instantly turned it into 20k. Anyway need to build up the bankroll either from yr job or other sources of income.
