After the player earns 5 , 000 + chips , they will be banned from playing games in the Atomic Wrangler casino . They can still use its other functions , like the bar and the services of the prostitutes ( if the Wang Dang Atomic Tango quest has been completed ) , but they cannot win any more money . This ban is permanent . If the player breaks the house limit before getting any comp gifts ( by getting a large win ) they will not receive any comps they have missed . As there is no floor manager , the casino comp gifts are awarded directly to the player upon reaching each winning milestone , and play is still interrupted by the character being forced out of whatever game they were playing . After Wang Dang Atomic Tango quest : Inhabitants . Originally escorts were supposed to appear here . They would have been both male and female and wearing , but were scrapped in favor of the Wang Dang Atomic Tango quest .
