Hey Mickey, I wanted to ask you, when you were in Oregon did you make it farther south along the coast to Three Rivers in Florence or The Mill in Coos Bay? Or how about my "home" casino Seven Feathers right off the i5?

I was at Three Rivers and The Mill back in March. I was just at Seven Feathers here about a week ago.I didn't look for it but I caught a little item online that Seven Feathers has 10/6 DDB. Can't really say if it's true or not.Quote:

I haven't noticed one either, except I think The D in downtown Vegas may still have one or two machines.Quote:

No, it's not. It's nice to learn a bit about true gambling without a lot of agenda, and while weave in some other things of interest along the way.
Come to think of it, this is how the mega-boards grew. But who wants to get lost in the mega-shuffle?
OHW, find a different thread to troll.Quote:

Gee Mickey, the way I read it: OneHitWonder was complimenting you.
Its hard to figure out the meaning of OHW's posts. I thought it was an endorsement of Singer. If not then I apologize.Quote:

Just curious: of all the casinos that you've seen, which was the "scummiest," and which was the "nicest?"
I don't think any of them can be described as scummy. They are all pretty much very nice, modern facilities, that are on a par with anything Nevada has to offer. I would say the most dated casino would be Par-A-Dice in East Peoria, Illinois. It's still on the same boat it was on 20 years ago. It's hard to say which is the nicest. I was highly impressed by Winstar, Choctaw Durant, Isleta, Sandia.Quote:

So it's now a singer.. I mean gelding?Quote:

You and your constant reminding in almost every post you make of how much you hated Singer, and how much better this place is without him, just confirms you're one of the true fucken morons here.Quote:

Wonder how many 2-bits Mickey was able to pull out of all these places. Traveling all over the place from state to state alone, seems like a desperate life.
I know every one here is proud of you and the riches you accumulated while being pretty much a bum with alleged means, yet, I can't help but feel sorry for you. Considering your place in life at your age is very sad. Your a fucking alcoholic loser, and no one here has the balls to tell you like it is except me.
By the way proof of your traveling all over the place trying to track down 2-bits with these pictures serves no purpose. Anyone with an internet connection could see the same pictures, without feeling bad for you and your lonely pathetic self.
Dan, would you exercise your power to keep blackbagofshithole out of this thread. He's nothing but a two-bit piece of shit troll ruining another thread. This thread should be excluded from trolls. All threads should not be open to trolling. There are other threads that he should be banned from. As the trolling goes he's worse than Singer.
Blackhole has one single agenda to attack AP's and destroy this site (so I guess that is two).
Is blackhole a casino exec? is that what this hatred is about? Did his wife run off with an AP maybe? :confused:

I know this is a point you have tried to make a number of times. I will concede there is some truth to what you are saying. That is the climate that this site has become and I guess was before I got here. I have said before there are teams, AP's and anti-AP's, 3-5 on each side and of course a few members that are neither. But the anti-AP's attack everything the AP's say. They literally hate what we stand for. And the AP's defend themselves and each other and attack back just as hard.Quote:

And it is that way because that is what this site is and frankly what Dan has allowed it to become.
I want change...I really do. Not that you can't be critical and have opposing views and opinions, but not the personal attacks. Not the "drunken" comments, or the "two bit AP" comments, or the gay attacks. Or the calling someone a "pedophile" or a "shyster". :o Anyone else willing to make an honest effort?

Hey crimm.... er.... I mean gelding.
I've been busting on Singer just to goof around you idiots. I have been reading his stuff for seventeen years and he's gone down hill. He actually has lost his edge of late and became unentertaining. He is now obsolete, finished, done, over. That being said I've got nothing against the guy.
I have lots more pics of places to post and many more places to visit where I will get pics. But I'm not going through the effort of posting them here until blackhole and belly are banned from this thread and their posts removed, Dan. They got their wish-another thread ruined.
Yeah, maybe there should be a separate permanent anti-AP thread. There isn't much sense to have a road trip thread and get savaged for it. There wasn't much point to my doing a LuxBus review and have that somehow be a negative -- people had things to say about it, assumed I was traveling cross-country by bus, and so on -- which means they never bothered to actually read the review or just felt like lying.Quote:

But what's the point of my putting in my rational two cents at the drop of every hat? It serves no purpose other than to let people know I'm smarter than them and to piss them off.
Don’t feel bad for the people with means that play this way. This is only sad when a degenerate plays this way down to their last quarter destroying their lives and family.Quote:

Yes, most of us lose most of the time, but casinos for some people is no different than a trip to Disney Land.
For the records, sometimes we even win, and win big.
I guess you would consider the whales that gamble stupid asses also, even after you consider they could buy and sell your whole live with their tip money. Imagine a group of whales all pounding away on a video poker progressive game trying to win 7K. Some risk more than that on one hand of BJ.
Casinos are lots of fun, and not everyone would even consider the need to, or would even want to chase plays all over the place in an environment that gets played out rather quickly.
I understand becoming an AP like Mickey Crimm who was a destitute street bum and too stupid and lazy to do something more rewarding than chasing 2-bit jackpots, still traveling all over the place like a tour bus, fighting to make a livable income.
As far as me proving the ability to enjoy casinos the way I explained, lol, go fuck yourself.
My point was that's all subjective. Me poking fun at you for not just paying directly for the wife's facials, but needing to justify what to me looks like stupid boring behavior is no more absurd than you poking fun at mickey for taking a road trip and vulturing. You don't have the market cornered on what are appropriate values, what's sane, and what should be considered entertainment. Mickey's behaviors looks nuts and desperate to you. Your behaviors look nuts and "desperately trying to find some fun" to me. You're no more right than I am.Quote:

And no, I'm not jealous of how you behave. That was a weird thing to say. I've existed in full-blown gambling milieus for 40 years for months at a time 24/7. I've never done what you do. Your behavior seems loony to me. I couldn't do it with someone else's money, much less mine. If I want to make charitable contributions, they won't be to CET.
My point was that you seem to think your perspective has some authority to it because, what, more people like to blow money the way you do than don't?
What does paying directly for the wife’s facial have to do with the price of fish? How did you get me trying to corner the market on what’s appropriate, sane, and what should be considered entertainment, out of what I said?Quote:

The only thing weird here was your response.
Blackhole has taken this thread to a far off place it was never intended to go. This thread is supposed to be about the pictures I take of the casinos I visit on the road, something I enjoy doing. Blackhole is out to ruin anything of value on this site. And what is so fucked up about this site is he is getting away with it. I'm not going to go with it much longer. Dan is going to have to make a move on blackhole or I will end my participation here. Life is to short to put up with this his kind of bullshit. I may start my own blog where I have control on content. Blackhole will be banned from posting there like he should be here.
I'm taking this to all out warfare on blackhole. He's a punk little bitch that needs a mudhole stomped in his ass.
Oh Mickey, please say it ain't so. I'm sorry for being honest. I'll never be honest again, and promise to go along with everything you say.
Google any of the casinos Mickey took a picture of. You'll get a much better perspective of what the casinos are like, than just the parking lots.
Sorry Mickey, I promise that's my last derogatory comment.
You're a fucking liar. It's all out warfare, bitch. You wanted it so you got it.Quote:

Why do you think what mickey does is sad, and what you do isn't sad? Have you taken a poll?
"And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God."
Maybe mickey's shooting for the Kingdom of God. It was a popular place until a few years ago.

East Peoria, Illinois
Tropicana in Evansville, Indiana.
A couple pics of the casino floor.
I've been to Evansville but totally missed this place.
In case I get back, how was it? It looks nice in the pictures. But a lot do and they're creepy when you're there because of panhandlers wandering around and the like.
I have been there, tho many years ago before it was a Trop casino. At that time it was a dump--dark, smokey, horrible VP. The pictures above look better than what I encountered.
There is a small race track about 15 minutes from there in Henderson Ky. It is a little dump in the middle of nowhere but runs a pretty decent short meet. Since there was nowhere to go for food or entertainment in a 15 mile radius of the track, I used to go to that casino. At that time, it was a multi-story deal and all the VP was in a dark corner in the basement. The whole Evansville area looked like the aftermath of nuclear war.
I looked it up on the internet and where Mickey visited and took pictures just opened last week. It had been a riverboat, and if it was near where the current place is per Google maps I never got that far West.Quote:

I can only imagine. These days if there's not a casino to wander I stick to the Walmarts or KMarts, or if it's early enough larger chain stores or shopping malls, to avoid the whole odd local store where you stick out like a sore thumb and feel obliged to find something/anything to buy. Occasionally I find a local treasure though - like Jungle Jim's outside of Cincinnati, which is fun to wander around.Quote:

French Lick Resort
French Lick, Indiana
Hometown of Larry Bird
Casino Floor
French Lick Resort looks like a high school or hospital from the outside. They better have good signage out front so people know what the hell it is.
