    Paradise Island, Bahamas

    Cruises I have been on two cruises, both with casinos. They closed at 4 am, back to room at 4:05 and always missed the midnight buffets (so I only gained 10 pounds, instead of 15). S17 means dealer stands on 17. Rules on both cruises were very similiar to AC. One 7-day cruise starting on Sat...

    Paradise Island, Bahamas

    Atlantis Was there several years ago and EVERYTHING is expensive and comps (I hear) stink. Only played one shoe, lost every hand in the first half of the shoe and won every hand of the last hand of the shoe and won $2.50, I seem to recall I only flat bet $5 because I just wanted to say I played...

    French News Cites My Casino Abuse Story

    I Didn't See the Article I just the French and the only thing I could almost understand was the headline about the sex change. I guess the French paper was referencing the LV Trib article, which I also hadn't seen. I would hope that article would open peoples' eyes but I'm sure it won't. I hope...

    French News Cites My Casino Abuse Story

    The Article The only thing I could understand from your article is that you are having a sex change. Are we to call you zenagrifter? I guess you outdid Michael Konik and his $100,000 breasts. I think your move is a little drastic for camoflauge but it's ok to think outside the box, especially...

    Majesty Cruise Ship Trip report- suspicious game

    Yeah but... there aren't many places where I can say I'm the classiest person (by far). I've only been on the boat twice (one small win and one small loss) but the people and the atmosphere are so disgusting, I wouldn't play there if they dealt to the last card on SD (I guess I'm not a pro)...

    1961 Blast From The Past!

    You're Right I often wondered what happened to basketball player Dave Koch. Really cool article on Thorp. How he did all that BJ stuff and played all those sports is unbelievable. No seriously, that is a gem.

    Poker online MLM...

    MLM I think his idea is brilliant. Same as what Rob McGarvey used to do with online BJ but more professional and formal (not a knock on RM). Too bad I don't have many friends who gamble. Actually, too bad I don't have many friends period.

    Eliot - something for you to consider

    AP Tourney Sounds like a good idea but JUST getting a TV netwok and financial sponsors is like saying the Mets just need good pitching and hitting to get in the playoffs. Also, unfortunately, the world doesn't care how hard APs have it and this wouldn't change anything. As much as I love...

    Something New

    Personally I don't use the casinos immorality as justification for my "immorality." I think each individual and business is responsible for their own mistakes. I don't correct mistakes (in my favor)by the cashier at the supermarket. It is his or her responsibility to give me the correct change...
