Tropicana's Jumper and 6deckers

As previously reported, Trop has taken losers' money without mercy from its 4 deckers. What I failed to report was---it also has taken losers' lives indirectly over years. On an average a loser has killed himself every 90 days in AC casinos. Trop has more than its share of dead losers. Several days ago another loser jumped to his death from Trop's parking deck, and he splashed his bloody brain all over the sidewalk of Brighton Street. Yo it seems that splashing one's brain onto the sidewalk has been the most popular way to go for the AC losers. Hey just in case if you losers do not want to dirty-up the sidewalk, you can learn from some of these dead losers who finally won their final bet of death:


1) blasting off his brain thru his mouth with a 12-gauge shotgun, or

2) hanging his neck to death with a bed sheet.


OK, enough with the above bad news :cry: , here's some good news :grin:. Congrats to Tropicana for beating Borgata, Hilton, and Plaza in the war of competition. In addition to its 4 deckers, now Trop also offers 6 deckers. The pen is 1.5 decks cutoff of 6. The new 6 deckers are great for APs to spread their actions thru out the casino, not just limited to the 4-decker-pit.

Haven't made my way down to the Trop since summer...are they H17 too?

good luck

W.t.f. ?

Ethan,

• Are you making this stuff up ?
  
• What or who is your source ?
  
• Can you cite a reference for us ?

I did a Google search and didn't come up with anything recent at the A.C. Trop, but did find this link: http://www.casinowatch.org/suicides/suicides.html

. . . truly eye-opening

Especially in these times, I wish everyone and their family a safe and joyous holiday season.

How much are the table minimums for the 6 deck games?

Is wonging allowed?

At The Trop there are sufficient $10 tables and even a few $5 tables.
Mid Shoe Entry is permissible at low stakes tables; however The Trop "manages the tables" to keep them full, so empty seats can be hard to find.

I'm out of date, is Trop AC still managed by ColSux, or someone else?

Trop was very entertaining

I had some fun at Trop earlier this week. Both myself and my BJ partner have pretty much worn out our welcome there.

We started playing red to try and avoid suspicion. However, we were recognized after about 20 minutes. Then the games began. I heard the FP tell the PB that I was sitting out a lot of hands. Then the shift manager wanders by and tells both of them that we've been here a few times in the last few weeks.

I get up from a neg count. One of the PCs starts following me around the casino. I call my friend on the cell phone and he's now being half-shoed and the dealer was told to shuffle up if he bet $50. He's also being stared down by a few suits.

Another guy at the table asks why the dealer shuffled, and my friend tells him the PCs know he's counting and he knows the PC knows he's counting and the casino shuffles when the players have the advantage. They seemed to back off a little after that.

I come back to the tables and note a back-counter there I see every time I'm there. He's now sitting at a table, but no apparent heat. Then, I see my friend with $75 out at the next table. I walk over to his table, sit down and throw out a black chip (I didn't have any greens at that time) expecting to be shuffled, but nothing happens. At this point only one clueless FP is watching like a deer in the headlights look. More low cards out. I'm just following his lead and push out a black now on 2 spots. One of my hands is a 12 v 3. Not knowing the exact count I asked him what I should do, out loud. He told me to stay.

Not getting any reaction from the pit with that, I asked him what exactly is the count (he's at seat two, one person on either side of him and I'm at thrid base.) It reminded me of the stories I read about Resorts in the early days when counters counted out loud, etc. It was hilarious. Why the pit just gave up on us is beyond me. It was getting late, so we cashed out and actually exchanged a few pleasantries with the FP before leaving. Holiday spirit?

According to Dr Amen, wine-drinking puts holes in your brain and makes you do embarrasing things. Hey that's why casinos will fire drinking dealers on the spot.



Thru many sources I've obtained most things I want to know or report on.

1) Google advanced search
Say you want to know if any kamikaze has jumped off Trop's parking garage lately. No problem. You will do the advanced-search and get the above jumper newstory thru this link:

http://www.nj.com/south/index.ssf/2008/12/reports_say_person_has_jumped.html


2) Casino employees

Say you want to know more about the jumper story after reading the above short newsarticle. No problem. Casino employees will fill you in while sitting at a bj table, a buffet table, etc...

3) Cellphone networking & serendipity

Say you want to know the latest news, gossips, free Internet access, free parking, or good games around town. No problem. Let the cellphone do the walking. Of course, having the good old serendipity will definitely help out a lot in finding answers you're looking for. Fore example, how do you find a free wireless Internet access at 3 o'clock in the morning? For me, it's just the good old serendipity. As I walked thru a rest area, I noticed a Wi-Fi wireless router attached near an electrical outlet. What a lucky discovery! This is the only AC joint that offers a free access to Internet 24/7 so far without charging a penny. :grin:

Its true

I just returned from the trop, and it is now all 6 deck S17. It still has the couple 4 deck tables. I watched a few kids get backed off but they were very obvious. If you use a little camo plus some common sence you will be able to play there forever, i go once or twice a month and use the trop like an atm, never had a problem.

Heat? Ditto to that.

Yo Good Looking, ditto that. As to the heat wise, Trop is a Saint when compared to the defunct Claridge. For instance, Trop allows 2 well known sequencers to play freely in its house---as long as those sequencers have stuck with the $100 bet limit per round, and have NOT made the pitcritters look bad.

Oh thank God or whomever for the Trop's newest 6 deckers and GOOD RIDDEN OF ALL ITS MONSTEROUS 8DECKERS. Without to get stuck at the 4deck-pit, APs now have a choice to play and spread out to other 6deck-pits; thus a little more breathing room is given in the 4deck-pit for me. Hey I've already missed to rub elbows with my fellow milking APs in the 4deck-pit, lol. :grin:
