Interesting that you'd turn monopoly into a casino because I turn monopoly into poker.
When I'm only doing average or not so well as I want to let on I make sure I have my 1000s on the top of a large stack. When I'm clearly leading I spread all my money into individual stacks so that people can clearly see that I'm far in the lead. The same goes for properties. Especially when I have stuff built on them. Anything with the most value is up in people's faces unless I'm slightly behind the curve where I obfuscate what I have to not seem a threat. (Games of monopoly often turn into horse trading in the late stages.)
Translating that online would be hard. Fun but hard.
