what is this book everyone is talking about? please pm me.

Thanks Sonny and everyone for the responses. Rule #2 and what Ringlejames said about stockpiling chips makes me nervous though. Would be terrible if they didn't allow the chips to be cashed in in the future. I have had a couple of scenarios where I have played unrated and they asked for my...

When you guys rathole chips while playing rated and the dealer colors you up. Is it a good idea to cash in all your chips at the cage right away or save some of your chips for a different time? Do the casinos typically monitor your win amount at the tables and the amount you cash out to see if...

Thanks for all the responses! I found them extremely helpful. I definitely was not cashing in $3000 in chips, which is why I was caught by surprise by the cashier asking for my card. Maybe it is because I kept coming back to the same area to cash out and they recognized me. They may have...

Recently I made a trip to Vegas and was able to make some nice winnings! During one of my days I made over 200 units over the course of several sessions in the same casino. I did not cash out all my chips as I did not want to raise any red flags by the amount of money to cash in case there was...

@johnnyB I mixed it up on both the 10 and 25 limit tables. I bet over 200 on max bet... so that is why i am concerned about heat as I did have a significant upswing and I was using a pretty big spread. The table was not crowded... and I think that is why I did so well as I was getting more...

I recently went on a little run of positive variance... finally! However, now I am faced with a different problem. I've made a total of about 250 units profit at the same casino in 3 consecutive days. What is the best way to go about this in terms of longevity? Should I cash in all my chips...
