Good source. And hardly surprising. I mean, if you're Mike Barnett, or the Z-Man, or Jacobson or Shackleford, or someone like Ron Buono, of course you're going to buy the book.
Or Griffin or Biometrix or SIN or George Joseph or Anderson or MGM surveillance or ....

Buono ran MGM surv last I heard. He once told me he's Howard's biggest customer. Buys everything.

Keep your friends close and your enemeys closer. Do you think Spartacus made friends with The house of Batiatius for the fun of it. No, it was a form of advantage play.

It comes as a shock to some that at various times CBJN reporters were/are casino survelliance staffers. zg

What do you have against CE T or stati0ns survillance? or 0SN?
OSN is still hanging in?
Is the one-armed man still with Stations?
CET, do they have any games?

Casinos:
Do they know about THE BOOK? yes
Do they want the book? yes
Can they easily afford the book? yes
Are they the single biggest market segment for the book? yes
Can they be prevented from acquiring the book? no

Why in the world would a seemingly valuable book like this be made public? zg

Yes, in the corporate world, one must avoid the term enemy. Of course there are people that would cut your throat given the chance. But, you still need to go to lunch with them, share drinks, etc., to find out what they’re up to. Information is power. Closing off paths to information is self-defeating.

Point taken. Hopefully his effort to do the same was artfully thwarted by you.

I said information - not repetitive, churlish, personal attacks. Extra noise reduces the ability to absorb useful information.

Forsooth! But let us always endeavor not to throw the baby out with the bath water!

What makes them so special, hence their sudden meteoric rise? Lower rates?
A few years ago I thought they were a hayseed DOA proposition. zg
I believe they were in the right place at the right time. They were rising at the time Griffin was falling.

I'm almost ready to purchase a second copy because mine looks terrible. When I first received the book, I immediately removed the dust cover, thinking it would be a prudent move to preserve the collectible value of the book (dust covers are a crucial part of this equation) — the joke was on me! The thing has seen more time on the road than a long-haul trucker, and to say that it's been the victim of some normal wear-and-tear would be a generous understatement. Oh well, I didn't buy the damn thing to enhance my collection, I bought it to step up my game, and I have no complaints there.

Of course, as ZG cheerfully points out ad nauseam in any and every thread mentioning James Grosjean or ECAA, the casinos have all read the book, and thus all of my hours spent studying the material have been for naught! I hope Mr. Grosjean is happy with the massive $10K profit he must have made from this book (what a grifter, eh?), now that there are no more games to be played due to the loss of critical information to casino suits and surveillance personnel... :rolleyes:
