Had a fabulous time this trip as things were looking good right from the start. You know you're in for a good time when you open up a fortune cookie on the ride there and the fortune says, "You're headed in the right direction." In the end, I ended up tripling my trip bankroll! Would have been quadruple had I not hit every card counter's worst nightmare. (When you have an 8 deck shoe with your max bet out starting 1/2 way through the shoe and you lose every hand practically the rest of the shoe and just when you think the faces and aces are about to come out, shuffle!!!)
Hilton has a special promotion going on for all Greyhound riders where they will give you a free buffet in addition to the slot dollars. They're going to be history though if they don't make their games better. 8 decks H17 70% pen
It was disappointing though that all of the joints I went to, I could not find better than 80% pen. I had to resort to using other AP methods more aggressively. The Borgata still has a few 6 deck games that can be played for $25 but most of all the tables now are 8 deckers. They moved the $5 table to where the money wheel table game is. The vast majority of the games I saw there were 70-75% pen. They are getting pretty sweaty. I saw them watching this guy like a hawk just because he was betting 10x the min bet even in negative counts. It was quite apparent to me that he wasn't counting and while his bs while good, it wasn't perfect.
Resorts is trying hard to make a comeback. They are really having some good promotions now however they only have 1 $25 and 1 $50 6 deck game which fortunately are S17
There must be no shortage of fools because the $1 /.25 ante game at WWW was full of people playing it. Penetration at all the Harrah's properties I went to was about 75% I didn't get to make it to the Trump properties but somehow I doubt things were better there.
