Agreed. No, the nearest town was trying to force him to run over one mile of 6 inch water pipe for a fire hydrant. The location had a lot of potential for future development. As it turned out, the mayor owned all the land surrounding the property my boss had bought. I did some research and...

I'm having a hard time finding the post you're talking about. But that was around the last time it looked like I'd come up with a bank roll. I had what seemed to be a good job, but the man was put out of biz by a corrupt politician and I got stiffed for a fair amount of money :(

I don't mind paying for it, but they only list CC'c for payment. I've asked a friend to order it for me, but he keeps 'forgetting'.

Hush, don't blow my cover.

I went into one of the casinos with a local. While I asked about the rules at one of the desks, the local asked at one of the BJ tables. I was directed to one of the 'ace and a 10 = BJ' pamphlets while my friend was simply snubbed.

Great link, thank you. Bu I'm still a long way from Vegas.

I don't think so, tho I've been trying to get here at least that long. The no CC is a moral decision and not a lack of will power. If you learn about usury and understand what it's done to this country(and the world), you might feel the same way. Especially when you learn that there are...

Small problem, I won't use credit(slave) cards

After years of studying and being a wannabe, it looks like I'll finally have a bankroll in a couple of weeks. I'm even in a part of the country with several casinos nearby. So how do I 'pre-screen' the casinos to find out their table rules. It seems like there should be a better way than...

Boy, wouldn't those pretty carpets look neat then!

Think of it this way, if they put you on the Griffin list, you'll have problems at a lot of casinos.

I gota go with Sonny here, you need to learn about bank roll sizing! Look up ROR, Risk of Ruin. I believe the 'rule of thumb' is 1000 times your minimum bet, but ROR can give you a better figure.

What other techniques are you looking at? I can think of playing the warps, hole carding and reading the dealer.

Regardless of the skills you do or don't have, it sounds like your attitude is all wrong. Many 'victims' are attacked because they expect to be attacked and they act like a victim/prey. It's the same principle here. Instead, you need to be able to look and act like a ploppy. Just some dumb...

I've read somewhere that a deck needs to be shuffled 5 times to completely randomize it.
