I take cash. Money watchers can be watched to keep them honest. Relative of mine was in Tuban a month ago and three times they tried to rip him off, two of those times being at the PT Kodak that are usually considered reliable. ATMs have a fairly low daily allowance (not sure what it is) and have been known to run out of notes but still record a full transaction! For me, though, the loss of the card to the machine that I was depending on for money was a disaster!
If you take cash just work out a good system to protect it from personal theft.
