i had a lot of people do this while dealing, id say like 9 or 19, then "ill take it as a 19 please and stand" its fairly common especially people with like a soft 13 vs a dealer 4,5,6, instead of a hit, its "no ill take the 13 and stand" ccl

also you with the colors you will find them different table to table, we had blue and red for BJ games, and teal and purple for poker games (tcp, fcp, fpg, etc...) but ive noticed in bigger casinos with hand shuffled SD the colors are different at tables next to each other (one might have red...

i have a place like this in calif. where i play, my only winning trip there (besides free slot play for birthday/anniversary) was a $10 win at a table buying time while a friend used some free slot play. also i can count the entire state of nevada as a place i cant win, never left with a...

i had a joker question too, at a casino here 1-2 days a week for a month every so often they put 2 jokers in the sp21 and bj shoes and whenever you get it, you name it a wild card and can treat it as such (get it with a 10, its an ace, etc... and get 3:2 or double if you can) if the dealer gets...

a lot of casinos the people putting them in order are the dealers waiting to go home or on break. I have sorted several thousands of decks, sometimes waiting to go home early you might do 20+ decks. some places i have seen ship them to a jail for casino cheats to sort out, they get a few cents...

i watched a csm game one time playing, best move i ever made was playing the table. Ended up dealer error loading the cards into the machine upside down, causing the cards to come out of the shuffler face up. ended up going on for maybe 15 mins before being noticed, i was out the door as soon...

when i found those chips the casino claimed when i called they had been working on changing their casino over to the one it is now and had been for several months and wouldnt be taking the previous chips, this is the reason i havnt stepped foot in there since they changed over. ccl

several years ago i found a really big disadvantage of keeping chips from casinos. After a small winning day (around $4k from craps) i ended up cashing out what i thought was all my chips upon leaving the hotel and heading back home. Low and behold about 2 days after caesars tahoe closed, i...

ive only played 1 dd spanish table in tahoe, they only had it one trip to town so it may have been a trial. Now N. Calif. its the most common BJ game but its all 6D shoes

i was in reno last weekend and somehow the dealer not thinking when about 4 hands after i went down to 1 hand in a DD game dealt me a 2nd hand, ended up with a 14 on one and a 12 on the other, the 14 had a 9-5 to make it up, she had a face up instead of seeing if i wanted to kill the hand she...

to give myself a mental break i will play almost every game in the casino esp. if im getting slaughtered at Bj, ive even been known to play a little slots or roulette to take a break (low stakes of course) but mainly im a poker/craps/bj player

i dont know about the ASM question but one day at a high end place i sat down at a CSM to play when i noticed something from a few tables away. the dealer was flipping the cards over twice (to turn them the way they came out of the machine) she was loading the cards upside down and they were...

love the look ken, easier actually to see than the old one for me. didnt know you were working on an update. ccl

i still like the bearded dude pissing in mike tysons pool on the tape and going "should i go wait outside or something"

ive spent many many days in tahoe but that was before the montebleu took over caesars. i like the peppermill casino except for the lights there, bugs my eyes too much to play more than a few minutes there. Helps to keep sessions short though ccl
