    Aria promos

    Sounds like a lot of you got Aria comps already. I just got mine a couple days ago. I've always used or thrown away promos I get, so my question to any of you......can you transfer these to anyone? (even though it says non transferable in the fine print).....seems like a shame since I'm probably...

    Aria

    i thought it opened 12/16? anyone? They are moving like 300 dealers from other MGM properties, I would think this makes other MGM properties better plays as far as them bringing in "new" people to the MGM family to make up for the leaving dealers....so they could be fresh, weak, etc. But...

    Ultimate Texas Hold'em

    There are casinos near here where you can openly show the entire table what you have while playing UTH. If you have 6 people on that table and you know 25% of the deck basically....anyone know what the advantage becomes for knowing 12 cards before the flop?

    100% penetration decks

    i like the fact that $90 didnt cue anyone to the fact that he has free shelter, clothes, food, and probably a car (obviously lots of sports gear) and lives in a decent suburb of MSP. Go for broke with that $90....bet it all on one hand is my advice...because next week dad will give you another...

    DD games at Bellagio, Mirage, and TI

    heads up is all I play on DD. Its not worth my time with pen being crap these days. I have found 6D to be my favorite when I used to loath it. Shows what a good 85% pen 6D can do to your tastes in a short time.

    DD games at Bellagio, Mirage, and TI

    60% pen is bad in my book. If Im by myself then at least I can use the spreading to my advantage in that short of a window..but if you think its a good game to have say 3 people sitting at and you are trying to make a ton without being found out, good luck to you sir. Mirages 6 deck game pens...

    The Royal Divorce

    this is how i use my very infrequent use of splitting 10s. It ranks up their with hitting a 16 when dealer is showing 6, or a close 2nd. :)

    The Royal Divorce

    yeah im not bagging on the concept of S-10s or A9 doubles as a theory. I was just commenting on ploppy play. People who shouldnt be doubling on A9 because the count to "me" is saying 10/A is not likely at this time.....seem to be greedy and will double that card no matter what.....i love it...

    DD games at Bellagio, Mirage, and TI

    I first remembered seeing that in 2008...but I was drunk and just walking by and couldnt remember if it was TI or Mirage.....I confirmed it was last week. Yeah 60% pen. Horrible. I also watched a Single Deck 6:5 at Mirage where she probably dealt 23-26 cards tops before...

    The Royal Divorce

    A9 doublers are my favorite to watch. Rarely do I do this unless im a)heavy on the plus rc and tc....or b) intoxicated on a $5 table doing a min bet :laugh: I like A9 over 10 spliters because they believe they have a free pass to double up their money. 10 splitter ploppies seem to me like...

    Leaving chips at table risky?

    I will need to check into this on a casino by casino basis. Vegas is a bunch of scum so I wouldnt there. But I would like to ask a few places around my home what their actual policy is....since the dealers and PB are usually like "yes you can leave, we will watch your chips"......if they...

    Leaving chips at table risky?

    :laugh: And make sure when you do try it....you dont do it after 5pm Friday - 8am Monday......I dont think Las Vegas jail is a place you want to end up for the weekend. Although it probably has better pen and allows counting if you can get a game going with a couple guys. :cool2:

    DD games at Bellagio, Mirage, and TI

    can one of you vegas regulars tell me what the pen is on those DD Mirage tables ($25 day, 50/100 night) by the box office where they make the dealers cut using the burn holder with a slit? It looks really bad (I was there over the weekend and confirmed that it was these tables I saw last year...

    Leaving chips at table risky?

    I just got back from vegas and had only 1 red chip stolen.......and it was by the dealer when i asked her to color up 5 silver.....and she looked at me, and i said "ones please" and she pushed it back on the betting circle and after she dealt the cards face down.....I said....I just wanted...

    Foxwoods

    Wow that is annoying. I kind of wish they had that here so jomamma wouldnt have to take a seat and complain to everyone about how i play.....as they are reaching into their purse for another $1000 and I'm up $400. Idiots.
