25d money spent by your distant cousin one of many in las vegas (4) C?I? Is it coin? Thanks

[retrocop]

yes coin

[retrocop]

Take US out of cousin left with anagram of coin

[mallyh]

chip?

[factor-fiction]

Yes, co(us)in, I think. The clue could have been punctuated a bit better by the paper though.

[Oldred]

chi(m)p ?

[dannyk13]

Distant cousin= chimp
money= m.
Chimp seems the better answer.

[dannyk13]

Sorry meant chip is better answer

[factor-fiction]

Possibly, mally/oldred. M could be thousand= many. The word play doesn't feel quite right for either though. I think i prefer CHIP of the two

[michaelmph]

I had coin but I think oldred is right and the answer is 'chip', chimp being a distant cousin, so to speak, and 16D is Las Vegas.

[retrocop]

How can you put a chimp in a coin slot??

[factor-fiction]

Does M stand for money then? I suppose the money supply measures are known as M0, M1, M2 etc

[dannyk13]

CHIP ^^^^^

[michaelmph]

You can put a chip in a on slot as well as using it for roulette.

[retrocop]

And there was me thinking only chumps went to Vegas but chimps as well????

[Sipowicz]

They don't just have slot machines in Las Vegas! Chips on the gambling tables.
