    EV for tournament hold 'em

    A little off subject BUT: Is there a forum of this quality for Hold'em?? I am especially interested in reports on various Southern California poker rooms: Limits, Quality of players, Rake, etc. Of course I'm looking for a medium limit room with low rake and HORRIBLE PLAYERS...

    Side count of 7's ??

    OK, I play mostly DD with a single level count with side count of Aces using a half-deck true count. The question: How much more advantage can I get with an additional side count of 7's for that annoying 13,14 vs 10 question? And how would I use the information? Roughly a 6-1 spread...

    Good idea. Let's just hope I don't get lazy BUT how do I get this to ALL casinos. 44 cents times a lot = more than I can afford for the return.

    Oops! Don't hit <enter> twice while typing: it submits your post. To continue: I know why this is done, to bring in new customers, but the older customers feel left out. The Solution -> offer the same offer to old customers but limit it to once per month - or any other time frame that...

    I probably have a fairly decent collection of slot cards and one thing angers me - AND EVERYONE I HAVE TALKED TO! Casinos advertise neat things TO NEW SLOT CLUB MEMBERS and LEAVE OUT THE OLD FAITHFULS!

    Forgot to add: the comp program is pretty good. I get about $1 per hour in comps at the $5 table. You can use the comp $'s for FREE SLOT PLAY or at a couple of restaruants and gift shops. They also will update immediately on leaving the table if requested.

    An Open Letter to Casinos

    To callipygian: Nope, started several places when I sat down. To BJ Bob: I see your point. Does help the go-for-the-comps players. Does anyone have any feedback on the idea of making a section on the forum for this kind of thing? Thanks for your comments, Bruisedlee

    An Open Letter to Casinos

    Actually, I would like to see a section on the Forum consisting of members "Open Letters to Casinos". They could be signed or unsigned BUT should not contain impolite things. Here is my first contribution: SPEED THE HELL UP! On a recent trip to Downtown Vegas I noticed the many...
