Stewart was taken into custody Friday morning.
The theft occurred around 12:30 a.m after the victim had been playing a table game and temporarily stepped away, leaving her chips behind.. The dealer placed a sign at her spot indicating the seat and chips were reserved.
Upon her return, the chips were gone.
Surveillance video at the scene revealed what had transpired.
A man sitting next to the victim wearing clothing identical to Stewart's moved his chips toward the woman's and then added her chips to his, police revealed.
Stewart denied any wrongdoing.
