    Can requiring it to enter a casino be far behind? Why are the singling out this group? What is the difference from your average table game or poker room? Maybe ZK is right about Caesars.

    Nevada gets worse by the day under Sissylak.

    I’m sure Dan will have a lot to say on this.

    There is a war going on in poker between the vaxxed and unvaxxed. Vaccinated players are raising hell about the unvaccinated. The vaccine helps but it doesn't mean you won't get covid. A percentage of the vaxxed are still going to get covid. They don't want their chances to go up by playing with the unvaccinated.

    The high stakes cash game players at Bellagio just announed they will quit any game if the house sits an unvaccinated player in it.

    Yeah, Negreanu is a wokeass libtard idiot. But I don't blame the vaxxed for not wanting to play with the unvaxxed. Getting vaxxed significantly cuts the risk of getting covid but does not end the risk of getting covid. The vaxxed, by getting the vaccine, have played a significant role in stemming the spread of covid. The unvaxxed haven't. The vaxxed have a legitimate argument that they shouldn't be made to play with unvaxxed because of the higher risk of getting covid.

    The vaccine is a fraud and none of them work.

    There's no way to believe anything the govt or media is saying about the vaccine. Age has nothing to do with the vulnerability of testing positive. Results are all over the map. All I can begin to believe is that those who have fairly serious to serious pre-existing conditions are better off taking the shot than not--and maybe only because of peace of mind . Other than that it's a crapshoot. My wife and I, both not fully vaccinated, are retirees in good health who have constantly been to restaurants, casinos, and gatherings in different parts of the country during this Covid BS, and we're still operating on all cylinders.

    The longer this nonsense goes on the more paranoid many people will become. This Covid is no more or less "dangerous" than the flu or the common cold. All three will have the same effect on those with weakened immune systems. Covid just came along when politics were at its lowest level ever. And who knows what the real long term or even short term problems await the vaccinated? And masks are even stupider.

    Hmm. I don't know about that. One of my Loyal Customers SCOFFED at the Covid-19 Pandemic, calling it a Political Hoax... He was singing a different album altogether when he himself ended up testing positive for Covid-19...

    Take comfort in the fact that no one is actually backing up his wishes to have you permanantly banned.


    Smart is knowing a Tomato is a fruit.

    Wise is knowing a Tomato doesn't belong in a fruit salad.



    I am glad to get my full posting rights back! Thank you Dan!

    Good post, Mickey: my thoughts exactly.
    What, Me Worry?

    They probably either had to do this or cancel it to do something different from their rather bizzare previous policy for what would happen with a symptomatic vs non symptomatic case and vaxxed vs unvaxxed close contacts.

    I'm not getting the poison jab under any circumstance and any of these self-righteous pro-vax types get in my face then they will be picking their teeth up off the ground. I already smacked some whiny, leftist beta-bitch in the mouth after he confronted me for not wearing a mas outdoors, hey hey.

    lolz, we went from the unvaccinated are killing people to the vaccine helps a little bit.

    Some of you guys are freaking geniuses. You won't take a vaccine created by the best medical and scientific experts that reduces severe illness, hospitalizations and deaths significantly, because you have decided that these medical and science experts are out to get you, when most don't have a political bone in their body. (I suspect many are republicans). But instead you listen to nut jobs on social media, with zero medical expertise, now telling people to take animal medication meant to de-worm cows and other such nonsense. Good luck with that! At least you won't have cow worms when you die of covid.

    Not surprised at some of you, but a few I am surprised as you are smarter than this. We have the smartest and best scientific minds in the world. Means nothing if you don't trust them.

    The Covid 19 vax is already expired. Doesn't do anything against Delta. Get in line for your next shot. In 5 years after your 9th dose come back and tell me who the retard is.....lol

    Since this is important...regarding the "we" in the sentence above, I have my doubts. The case is not nearly a slam dunk against Ivermectin, and not nearly a slam dunk for vaccine efficacy.

    Ivermectin is NOT hydroxychloroquine. Just because anti-science Republicans are for something doesn't make it wrong.

    Suggested reading:


    https://www.newswars.com/now-is-the-...o-treat-covid/

    The above sounds like a right wing hype job, but appearing on a right wing hype job website does not make the article itself a right wing hype job. This is a very important rule to remember.


    And then we have this:


    https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/med...?ocid=msedgntp


    This was not a close contest. Having had the original Covid strain is much, much more effective against getting Delta than the vaccine.


    I will tackle this in my blog in days ahead, not from the medical perspective because I am unqualified, but from an analysis of American media coverage (I was a journalism major originally, and have worked for small newspapers), and my degree is in Writing. I will absolutely eviscerate a piece CNN did regarding Ivermectin. And after you read what I have to say, you will agree with me.

    So stay tuned.

    KewlJ, I love you. You sound like my friends in academia, who are turning a blind eye to the fact that Republican-bad, Progressive-good is not really a way to evaluate sources.

    That republicans are "anti-science" is socialist bullshit propaganda, comrade.

    "Socialist" has nothing to do with it. Trump was blatantly anti-science because being anti-science dovetailed with his short-term goals. What's happening now is more subtle, but only slightly, and it's because spin and editing dovetail with short-term goals. The U.S. has the stingiest social safety net of the Western democracies, so a lockdown is like a seizure to the U.S. economy, while other countries, either smaller and more nimble or authoritarian like China, can handle it with aplomb.

    The U.S. does more poorly with Covid than other countries because we're structurally incapable of an effective shutdown. Everything takes a back seat to maintenance of commerce, and competition between states for commerce is some of what drives the inability to shut down. The inability to lock down will be, in part, the grease that enables China to slide by us economically permanently. China is structurally designed to deal with Covid better than the U.S. The difference in coping is stark.

    Republicans aren't, per se, anti-science. That's a side effect of being, in general, what appears to be anti-rational, but may not be. If the majority of Republicans claim that Biden lost the election, that's anti-reality and appears to be irrational, but it may be rational from a purely political perspective, which is what I've argued recently in my blog.

    Trump being anti-science is just a dem slogan you use. He's the one that got us the vaccine in record time. Save your breath with the bullshit that he didn't.

    You've been damn quiet about Joe Talibiden's complete assclown incompetence as President. Cancelling drilling and pipeline projects then begging the Saudi's to produce more oil. Flooding the country with millions of uneducated covid infected migrants. Pulling the troops out of Afghanistan before pulling out the civilians. He's a complete idiot.

    You routinely elevate the Chi-Comm's to hero status. You love the Chinese model, they allow their citizens to work and produce but maintain complete dictatorship over them. Perhaps, comrade, you will be one of the first to renounce your American rights and move to China where you can enjoy complete domination by the government.

    The Chi-Comms are better able to deal with the virus because they have complete dictatorial control over a people that are no better than slaves. WHEN THE CHI-COMMS SAY SHIT THE PEOPLE START SQUATTING!!!

    The Chi-Comms are your hero's redietz. Blessed are the dictator's. Right?
