    2 gamblers take US casino for more than $11M

    I dont even understand how people with that kind of money go through it all. Seems like alot would be tied up in property and other investments. I can see losing 50-60 mil on stupid ****. But when it starts running out doesnt a warning bell start going...

    Linked slot machines?

    i believe it still does if im thinking of the same ones. The bank is still there i know that. IDK if its still linked. The casino has pretty good games all around in my opinion for how small and out of the way it is. I know that odds dont change but still i would be mad if i was playing a...

    Linked slot machines?

    Ive never really looked at one closely, but shouldnt this be made perfectly clear to everyone? Seems like anyone playing might wanna know someone somewhere far away could hit it at any time.

    Linked slot machines?

    So little while ago while playing, i was talking to my favorite dealer, who i get along with well ( she reminds me of my mother). Anyways i was joking about a big slot payout i wish i could hit. Its in the mid 6 digits. Thats when she said the larger slots in the house(which is kinda small...

    Advice please - is counting worth it?

    He obviously has some idea of the game, you take your criticism to far way to often. That being said you are wrong. My local place uses the players cut as the pen, as long as it is close to one deck cut off, which is their usual pen. So to say he has no idea makes you look ignorant and a snob.

    The Tip?

    Also i see mostly younger dealers around here, that or older retired people doing it as a hobby or little extra income. Ten dollars an hour is not a bad wage for no college or any other training, specially when you factor in the ability for tips. Waitresses make something terrible like 4.25 an hour.

    The Tip?

    WHy do dealers care so much in the first place, i thought all table games dealers share tips? Wouldnt that make any tip kinda meaningless in such broad pool of users. Like i understand if one dealer would get 1k but when that is shared with 25 others its only like 40 dollars. Not enough to get...

    Is it normal for casinos not to spread cards face up when changing decks?

    If you are playing with an advantage there it might be a bad idea. It would certainly draw extra attention. That being said if its not a fair game its already to -EV to play anyways so being backed off wouldnt be a problem. If you know anyone who is a ploppy maybe consider having them come with...

    Is it normal for casinos not to spread cards face up when changing decks?

    Both Indian casinos by me spread the decks. Are the decks still sealed in plastic wrap when they are given to the dealer? If not i would be much more skeptic.

    Black Jack or Craps

    Please stop using whatever % suits you best. I gave you an example, of the 8, which you said was 47.8 and i said he rounded up to 49, that was closest thing to 50% i could find in the article, since you were going on and on about somepart being wrong with 50%. I didnt know you could only win...

    Black Jack or Craps

    What i think your failing to realize is that if your throwing more 4,6,8 and 10s then your more likely to have these as your point as well. Therefore less likely to have the 5,9 where you now have a larger disadvantage. He is doing the math based on not knowing which one you are more likely to...

    Black Jack or Craps

    Why you used a pen and paper with tools like bonetracker is what i dont understand. I think i understand more then what people are giving me credit for. That being said he isnt saying you will make 50% of your points. He is saying the 50% being able to repeat a point. ~Let’s say that our...

    Black Jack or Craps

    Im already working on my practice rig. Now if i really am smart like you implied earlier (thank you), then why would i go to the casino without looking at the roll data to see what my edge is? There are some very nice tools out and about for this. Ide like to assume the AP in me from reading so...

    Black Jack or Craps

    I understand your point on the first post, but i am assuming he is not factoring in which number gets the bonus of more rolls since their are supposedly less sevens coming out. My question is would the added advantage on say the 4 and the 10(example, pretend these are the numbers you now shoot...

    Black Jack or Craps

    Your right that is the only way. Just like the only way to win bj is to pretend the dealer always has a ten. >.> Your last sentence made no sense, dont gamble if you intend to gamble? huh? Anyways, i never said i wanted to hit it big, my question was could i achieve results with craps, with...
