I collect stats on games to zero in on playable numbers. Once i have that i quit tracking. After awhile i forget why i’m playing that number. One of the reason i like the ap slots over video poker is once i know the playable numbers i dont have to remember much else like what cards to hold.
Right, and keeping track of everything is a good thing and should definitely be encouraged, especially to new players.Quote:

If I started playing a small percentage advantage on a game like 10-7 double bonus for some reason, I would have to go over some of the finer points before I felt I was playing 100% accurate. I just can't imagine a situation that would compel me to go engage in a play with a small percentage on video poker.Quote:

I also pointed out that his entire fictionalized blackjack story fit too neatly into a "I won exactly what was expected" - someone else, I believe it was AccountInQuestion, mentioned that someone playing like that, unrated, no consistent play, couldn't even know exactly what his handle (amount passed over the circle) was, to begin to figure out what was "expected" over a period of many years.
UNKewlJ has also consistently contradicted himself – unable to keep to the same story. One day he’s never ever played rated, next day he talks about all the comps he racked up at table games. Not too different from how sheTater/Moses once described it as a nervous poodle barking at a glass of water.Quote:

Why would they get SO bent out of shape and do all this trolling when some real players (who know how things work) don't believe them?
The answer is they wouldn't. :cool:
He would if he enjoys flogging you...that's not hard to understand...you deserve it.Quote:

And that's enjoyable for the readers...and the readers are the "they" that you're worried about.

Today as I was walking in from the car, a LOL was having a rough time navigating the 6 or 8 steps up to the entrance. Looking ahead, I didn't see any handicap button for her to open the doors.
Thinking quickly, I diverted to an alternate set of entrance doors at the far end -- sparing the woman any sight of me rudely ignoring her plight.
I actually doubt that dealers are being laid off at the (successful) Majors on the Strip.
And if there is a decline in gaming revenue it could have to do with that higher levels of play are being demanded of players to get a fully comp'ed ride, because many of the resorts are catering so hard to non-gaming visitors, such as convention traffic. For example, we used to be allowed to stay at one of the Majors for up to 21 days before we had to leave so as not to be considered a "resident" (and subject to tenants rights). That same Major now is stating that due to the priority being given to corporations who are booking up sometimes all of their suites and most of the rooms for conventions, that 9 days is the new max.
Another Major still allows us to stay as long as we want, and creates a legal fiction of having "moved" to another room and hence commenced a new stay, by checking us out and back in every 21 days. Another still doesn't care and (seemingly) lets us stay as long as we want.
We don't always stay in house at the resorts when in Vegas, but when we do, would like the option of staying for as long as we like.
That they are not letting someone like me stay as long as he wants, shows that the priority is no longer gaming. Sure someone could argue, "Well he wins, why would they want him to stay," but asking me to leave doesn't affect my play I just come back and play without staying in house.
And they have been treating some of my heavy hitting friends who rarely win, the same way - seemingly prioritizing paying corporate guests over casino players.
This makes zero sense. ....Quote:

If kew wasn't implicitly bothered by what mdawg and I say about his failed life as a liar, he would never again have the incessant and uncontrollable need to keep claiming he "only sees comments because they were quoted"--and always with the burning need to issue more weakass denials.
A truly happy and successful person would simply just look past the feelings of embarrassing inadequacies, and instead focus on all the great things currently going on in their life.
He gets so unnerved over the truths we unleash that it continuously forces him into his rages of denial! It's like we keep getting new sessions at the woodshed with him every time we think he's had enough punishment.
Can it ever get any better than this!? :)
The CZR properties are the worst RTP. I play them tighter than normal. But I’m diamond with them, just can’t make much money in their properties. Their value, along with PENNplay, is comped rooms with no resort fee’s all over the country, about 90 casinos.Quote:

In places I’m getting RFB/freeplay I throw breakeven plays into the mix to get in more wager.
