    Mohegan Sun - ID Policy

    ID upon entering is best There are even lines to get in during busy hours, but they check closely and I have seen people denied. To put it on the pit and dealers is probably just to stop anon play. It is very rare to see anon play around here. The way the dealer and pit "ask" for your card is...

    High roller, low min table ownership.

    Politely sell yourself into the game You gotta try and sell yourself and get in the game. If you fail, sit it out and you will be thanked by player and dealer. How to try? “ I have a history of being lucky for the other payer at the table, so if the cards are wrong, I am ready. If not, I wish...

    How much can you win and how far should you go?

    You have a 25 min. game that allows you to win often. Do you win under 1K and leave with 400-700 or remain there and rack up 3K or more? This is not Vegas. Even with ratholing, it’s sometimes hard to hide the win, but it’s a good game that has a limit to how much they will tolerate.

    Scoping out a casino

    Great info from Flash Flash gave great info for you and all of us (he always does), but I doubt you are ready for this play. I would consider how to “wong out” with good cover and find good games. Wonging out in bad counts, ratholing, spreading the right amount for the game and the store and...

    1st backoff

    "You're too good." A polite tap. The best part is you were anon and you can still score there again. You were right when you felt something upon coloring out. They reviewed your play after you left and you going back so soon and the same floor guy seeing you got you the tap. As you said "not...

    Niagara Falls-Great view remains, tables change

    A short while ago I visited the American side Niagara Falls store. There were always 8 deck shoes, 25 min. in the back room and 10/15 min. in the main room with the HL room 6 deck. Now it is ALL CSM tables except the HL room and 2-4 tables in the back room with 50 min. the back room also has CSM...

    Question on ratholing

    Ratholers Beware After reading excellent replies from Aslan and Paddywhack's take on ratholing blacks any further information is probably too much. The only APs who need to rathole are consistent winners at a frequented store. That narrows it down to a small number. Then you have to be careful...

    Big bettors at your table...GOOD or BAD?

    So your great cover play now has even more help with 2 guys betting black while you green. The pit checks them and doesn’t really bother with you, BUT what if surveillance checks your table because of them and you get caught in the wash? So is it better to NOT play at this table? Thanks in...

    Lack of counters to catch

    It is easy for an AP to make another AP, no matter the cover, but he should keep it to himself. The cover is to keep the pit off your trail so a call never happens so you are probably fine. The only AP I encountered at an Indian casino was leaving the table at the same time I was in negative...

    Lack of counters to catch

    I have yet to spot a counter in the eastern Indian Casinos. When I visit Vegas, I may spot one during a week stay. Is this the norm? If it is there is, too much time is spent trying to catch a counter on the main floor. East - At 25 min. tables (2 & 8 deck) I would think I would spot more...

    Vegas trip report

    Missed the M resort I had M resort in the plans and ran out of time and energy. I did not see LS. We had a car and drank coronas too much to drive. We were ahead from the start and didn’t care about cab costs. I was there 6 days and my 2 sons were there 4 days. I lost a day in the hospital with...

    Vegas trip report

    I love standing on the bridge between MGM and NYNY, viewing the strip and knowing I am in the best vacation place in the world and the trip just might be free or better. Orleans was great to play with fun dealers and friendly pit personnel. The 2 deck game was the standard Vegas h17,das and...

    Is EV impacted by when you leave?

    There is no rule for leaving a plus shoe. We count to get a plus and then we have an advantage. Play the plus and then leave. Aslan is so correct.
