You go Girl! If any one is going to hanging on the sidelines, it is my hubby. I am by far the expert. For the record, it has been mainly men who I have seen split tens.:whip:

I am a female and I play blackjack. I have not been playing as much as I would like. I have trip to Vegas planned in August. I usually play twice a moth, but more if I am winning.

I played on a Holland America Cruise and was not very skilled at that time and I managed to win a decent amount. Most dealers are from other countries, like at the El Cortez in Vegas. The most memorable thing was a rich old man tried to give me two black chips. Only thing was my husband was...

Tonight I left with $500 after buying in with $60. I like who said it is not the size of your bakroll, but how you use it. :grin:

You guys have me wondering, I have taken Metropois for over $1300 in the past two weeks. I am not in danger of being barred am I? Unlike you guys, I buy in for a small amount, trying to keep $100 as my bankroll. I have played for the past three nights and left with at least $300. I am ok...

It is not that I am not tough, and I was just flat betting, there were others doing the big bets that were really going off. I have just noticed a change in Harrahs since it was sold. Not many people were on the slots and I was told by an insider in Peoria, Il, that slots are were the casinos...

Thanks for all your responses, but her plaly did affect the table. She consistently took the bust card or did not hit appropriatley. I will have learn to walk away next time someone plays that badly. Also, is this not a forum where we can voice our concerns? But MDLBJ, you have a nice day...

Just returned from Harrahs in Metroplois and did lousy. On Thursday, made $350 with a $60 buyin. Tried to repeat it and was well on my way to doubling my money, then a woman sat down. She did not say a word to anyone and kept her eyes on the dealer. She f#@$ed every hand she played. :flame...

With the least amount of money. I read about your big bank rolls, but what is the least amount of money you have started playing bj with and walked out with the most. My personal best was starting with $20 on a $5 table and leaving with $200. Again, I learn so much from this site, and I...

The worst dealer I have seen is one of those passive-aggressive people. When she wins, she goes, "Wow, I beat you again. I am really sorry to keep beating everyone." She just keeps repeating this. She can clear a table faster than any other dealer in the whole place. I have been playing at...

But does she have false teeth??????? You know what they say, once you go toothless, you never go back!!!!!!!!!!:laugh:

Thanks, Aslan. The Bird man of Alcatraz is also buried there. I like trivia and blackjack. One year, I went to the Superman Festival and saw Adam West there. It is just a neat little town, better when I leave a winner.

I live about 35 miles north of the city. There is a Superman museum still there and the casino is owned by Harrahs. The guy that owns the museum also opened Hollywood museum. I have been in the Superman museum several times, but not the Hollywood one. I pass it going to the casino. The...

Yes, there is a female dealer in Metropolis, Il, who I have never won a single hand ever against. I thought is was just me, but I play with some regulars there and they have said the same thing. If the casino wants to clear a bj table, all they have to do is put her there. I kept telling...

Yes, I called a dealer on the way he was dealing cards and it was also a forgein dealer. He just open kept my card and proceeeded to deal me another card. I was playing the third seat and he dealt a 7, 8, A and then dealt a 3, 2 and kept my card. The table started raising hell and the pit...
