Caesars Activity Days, Winning Tickets, and ADT

This board really needs more action! So, to liven things up a bit, I will share that I have been musing over how Caesars counts days for the purposes of calculating one's average daily theoretical (ADT) loss.

I believe it is common knowledge that swiping your card at a kiosk, taking a comp, etc. automatically triggers a gaming day so you should absolutely never do that unless you are planning on playing that day. (Unless of course you don't care about ADT and maybe given the current stinginess of Caesars you shouldn't. But I digress...)

I'm pretty sure that checking out of a Caesars hotel in the morning doesn't count as a gaming day.

But here's a really interesting dilemma: I may soon be in a position to cash some nice winning sports bets. Nowadays most Caesars books refuse to cash winning tickets (I don't mean W2G big, just anything more than a few hundred bucks big) without demanding your players card and swiping it on their teller terminals. Will walking into the sportsbook and letting the teller swipe my card to get my cash now trigger a gaming day and result in a $0 day if I just pocket my cash and drive off?
