I don't think you understand. If this happens to you, you will not be capable of clear thinking and rational decisions. I know, because it happened to me about 6 years ago in a different club. About two minutes after I took a sip of my drink things got fuzzy. Apparently I continued to function, but I remember absolutely nothing of the next two hours. When I did come to, a manager (who was obviously in on it along with the dancer and her partner) was putting the tab in front of me and saying the card company rejected the charge and I needed to give him a different card. I couldn't think straight, so I gave him a different card. I had no capacity to think straight or argue with him. Long story from there, but it cost me about $2k (the two girls had evidently ordered 3 bottles and charged a bunch of dance dollars), but I guess I was lucky that it wasn't as bad as the guy's story above. I called the card company to dispute the charge, but they came back with a copy of the signed charge slip (on which my signature is barely legible). I'm pretty sure that manager was no longer with the club soon thereafter.
A few lessons learned from this incident:
1. NEVER leave your drink unguarded or on the table with a dancer you don't know and fully trust (which should be pretty much most of them).
2. If it happens to you, as soon as you are thinking clearly go directly to an emergency medical facility and request a drug screen test. At least that way you'll have some hard evidence.
3. Dancers can't cash in dance dollars until the next day, so go to the club the next day as soon as it opens and register a complaint with the GM or Day Shift manager. May not do you any good, but it's at least a chance and may be the only chance you have to dispute the charge. You might have a better chance if you have drug screen results in your hand.
There's a lot more to the story, but this is already off-topic from the OP. But I thought it was worth putting out there in case it helps somebody out one day.
