worth mentioning ...is that what used to be a decent pitch game $25 / min 2 decks with all the "good" rules (double any, resplit, DAS) is now gone - can now only double 10, 11, no resplit, etc. This used to be one of the better games in the area IMHO. Also, $5 6 deck tables now allow...

Hi, don't want to ruin any excitement for you, but if you're playing basic strategy with 0% (more or less?) mistakes and not counting, then you're not ready to go AP anyway. I'd suggest practicing until you can confidently state "perfect basic strategy with NO mistakes" then practice...

close to Indy Greetings.. You can go over towards Cincinnati - in Lawrenceburg, Indiana is the Hollywood Casino. A giant place that gives you a bit of a Vegas feel. Rules are not spectacular, but tolerable. Also Grand Victoria in Rising Sun, Indiana, Belterra in Florence, Indiana. You...

How biziggity. I'm now craving a nice rare, chiggityd steak. Sorry...had to do it...:grin:

Assuming holecarding is one of the techniques here, but how would you actually determine a specific value? Based on bet unit, etc. I guess. Any, it got me thinking, which is unusual before noon or so.

How exactly do you determine the approximate value of a specific seat at a table? I am intrigued and confused. Please enlighten me.

Was there any reaction from the dealer / Pit? It's been said already but this conversation shouldn't occur even in the parking lot let alone at the table. A horrible idea even if you have no idea what you're doing. If someone ever tries to bring the topic up while I'm playing, I just look...

Wondering if maybe the issue of tipping (or not) is simply a personal choice for which there is no correct answer (aside from the -EV issue). I for one used to prefer tipping the hot waitresses as they at least pretended to be in love with me that way. Turned out I married one of them and...

Well said - I wholeheartedly agree. It's a bit ironic for this joint, as they have advertised themselves as having "the most player friendly BJ rules" in the area - wonder if they changed the billboards....doubt it. :mad: That being said, it's also surprising given the fact that this place...

As stated in original post - transcript of Indiana Gaming Commission meeting of November 10, 2010. Here ya go... http://www.in.gov/igc/files/2010-11-10-Tra.pdf

Thanks moo, Haven't been in awhile but I recall a pretty good $25 min 2d game there in the past. Anywho, I was at the place in Larry Bird's home town not too long ago and was suprised (and happy) to see that they now stand on soft 17 - I believe this is a change for that location. Just an...

Say it isn't so...this from the transcript of the 11/10/10 IGC meeting: "Grand Vxxxxxxx's request was approved to pay out odds of six to five on low minimum wage blackjack tables." Can anyone confirm that this has actually ocurred? Used to be some pretty good games at that location. :cry:

I got mine from cafepress.com, which I believe another poster has indicated. They have a bunch of blackjack-related stuff. Ploppy comments were fun - like "hey, where'd you get that? It's cool!" Other attention was just one PC - just asked me why the he## I'd wear a shirt like that in a...

I actually have one of these and have worn it. Once. Lots of ploppy comments and too much other attention. :eek:

As I suspected - thank you Sir.
