So how did you pro guys do this year? Are you still able to make a living playing blackjack in AC? I wasn't too sucessfull in my first try, but want to try again in 2010.

You should be trying. You are either doing it correctly or not. Practice first!

I just think you need to start off with a large bankroll to make a living!

I did very well in '09
I am quite pleased.

The only complaint I had in '09 was the drop off in comps...anybody else significantly feel this?

good luck :joker:

Yes indeed, nationwide, Comps are Down !

Can't say I've noticed a drop in comps. I've read about it, but it has not affected me one bit. Perhaps even the opposite is true.

Do you get a lot of time in at HET properties? I continue to get decent offers and returns from them (and Venetian/Palazzo for some reason), but other AC joints seem have tightened up on me. Must have been something I said

Yeah. A few midwest casinos have gotten worse.
