You don't claim to be a Pro Player.
Rob does.
You aren't against Tipping.
Rob is.
I guess you and Rob do not have a Beef anymore?
I thought you hated him because he lied to you?
Rob sure did bash the shit out of you for over a year on this board.
I guess that's all water under the bridge.
I'm not against tipping but there is a threshold.
And you shouldn't tip over what you can get in the way of Steak House, Rooms or other Comps.
It's pretty difficult to play a game that you are making 3% from and keep tipping 10%.
I'm not very good at math but I'm pretty sure if you continue on playing that game and tipping that amount you will run out of cash.
I don't understand your logic.
The more you win the larger your tip amount increases because they did their job and handed you your money that you won?
We are not talking about people serving you food in the Steak House.
By all means those people do deserve a tip and more so if you know them or they are really good at treating you well.
We are talking about a bunch of bullshit that the Machine Locks up at 1200 and they give you government paperwork for your trouble and all the while you are telling us that people should tip 10%??
The best are places where the machine locks up for 200 dollar wins lol.
Talk about Extortion Crew.
And what part of tipping on the sly do you not understand?
Do you like to not only get taxed on your jackpot but also tip the government as well??
Are suckers born every minute?
So when you hit the 10 Million Dollar Megabucks you are going to tip the Extortion Crew a Million Dollars???
Makes Sense.
And if by chance you hit the 100 Million Dollar Powerball you are going to tip the cashier and lottery workers 10 Million Dollars???
See the odd problem with Big Wins and Tipping?
Oh and if you run your money up to 100k on the dice table you are going to tip 10,000 dollars when you color up???
Win a WSOP Event for 2 Million and tip 200k... madness!!

You wrap your cash weird.
Not a dig as I know many people do different things.
I dunno.
Everyone I know or myself always uses a strong gumband and doubles it over the folded bills up to 10k.
My friend used to use those really fat, large rubberbands at times but I hate those.
On 50k Bricks I usually leave them straight in the wrappers and wrap a gumband on each end.
Not a dig... just an observation.
Wrap and Carry your cash however you like.
Personally, I don't like the 10k wrappers and I never use the 5k ones like in your picture.
On the other hand, my wife loves the 5 and 10k wrappers and likes to keep all the bills straight but that doesn't work when you need to put them on your person.
Nice Kitchen Countertop... Granite?

The only time I'm tipping is if I'm buying them off to not look too close. Otherwise they can fuck off.
I'm done with the casino food. So I don't worry about that shit anymore either. It's all crap food. Right up to the best place you can think of. I'm eating nothing but whole non-processed plant food, no meat, no dairy, and no fucking oil. After a month you will feel 20 years younger. Try it.
I don't keep much cash in wrappers. They're not durable. That was the cleanest looking stuff I could grab offhand. I used it as an example as to what pristine money really looks like. Most of it looks like the dirty ass shit in that pile. If I am carrying 50k it would not be in one of those blocks. It would be in five 10k mini blocks stuffed in different pockets. Like you say though. People all do it differently.
I actually don't like my kitchen countertops. That's the next project after the next bathroom gets done.
Q: What do a leper with a whore and a big spender have in common?
A: They both leave a tip when they're done.
What, Me Worry?
Takes a Strong Mind and Will Power.
Nicely Done.
About the cash... yes... I don't care about fake or real.
Yes, I have never seen such white straight all blue hundo's like in Rob's Picture.
Some 10k bundles have all blue but usually you get some older bills mixed in.
And they are never so straight and compressed.
They always have fluff in the middle because of dog ears or whatever.
I've posted pictures of cash before and it looks like yours and nothing like Rob's Picture.
But like I say... I don't really care... not part of my world or life.
Usually the 50k Bricks are wrapped like that because I won and am going home.
I find it much easier to handle quickly wrapped in bricks like that but I never deal with checks or markers.
Always in cash for me.
5 to 20k is the usual walking around money.
2k packages are probably easier for you to deal with for whatever and however you do things.
Like I say, just an observation and I think the crisscrossing is overkill, for me anyways.
Obviously, because you didn't double the gumband, which probably helps on breakage.
I always break my rubberbands but all Cages hand them out for Free anyways.
Stop Lying.
You know that shit looks horrible.
I'm positive you only have one friend who has this color scheme that actually looks good or stylish.
It's so uncommon it is very difficult to find pictures online.
I cast you both out in the precious name of Jesus!!
Be Gone Demons!
What were they thinking in this vehicle?
Black, Brown, Grey... Barfing all over my keyboard right now.
So what if you are 20 or 21? After a month will you feel like an infant?
I wrap my money similar to MaxPen, but I suspect even smaller packs of $1000, using either a rubber band or sometimes a large paperclip. The reason is being a table player, I don't want to pull out a brick of 10 or 20k and start peeling off hundreds at the table. I don't want other players and just people milling around to see that and I also don't want the pit to know I am well financed. That just screams AP when playing blackjack. By buying in for $1000 or sometimes two of my thousand dollar packs when playing games with higher maxbets, it just gives the appearance of a player "chasing" losses. Even if you do so several times in seccession.
Sure. I'll tip ten million on a 100 million Powerball jackpot. LOL
Rob did not say he would crush UX. He said he would play until he lost 400K or won 250K. But I get why you guys twist things up to suit your argument.
Yes, casinos avoid UX in high denom because they don't want the exposure. And even on the lower denom they put in bad payscales, 96% to 97% range.
Rob could have certainly negotiated them into the proposition. Casinos don't give blackjack players 20% rebates either. But Don Johnson, a very high roller, damn sure talked them into giving it to him. Money talks, bullshit walks. Those that can show some serious dough can get casinos to do a lot of things they won't do for the general public. So I see no conflict with what I said about high denom UX and what Rob negotiated himself into.
"More importantly, mickey thought 8-4 was two games over .500. Argued about it. C'mon, man. Nothing can top that for math expertise. If GWAE ever has you on again, you can be sure I'll be calling in with that gem.'Nuff said." REDIETZ
Congrats to Singing Robbie on his 10k milestone. The All-Time forum legend. Here's to another 10k Jerry !
Really, Alan? I mean, really? You're trying to pull rank on someone based on their spelling of "judgement?"
The most common U.S. spelling of judgement (I still prefer the old preference) transitioned in the 90's or thereabouts. Previously, "judgement" was more common. Now "judgment" is more common. I don't know why. I'm not absolutely sure, but I think that "judgement" with the "e" is still closer to 50/50 use in the U.K.
If you want to pin down style guide preferences, I can recommend a fine editor at Penn State named Nicola McCarthy. She's an editor's editor who actually edited a book by Robert Gannon, who doesn't really need an editor, but he followed writing protocols and hired an editor to review one of his books. He was one of the finest science writers of our generation and my advisor at Penn State. He came to fame in the 60's, checking himself into a hospital, taking LSD, and writing about it for Popular Science.

I still use "judgement" so I have reason to thumb my nose at spell-check. Makes me feel less like an automaton.

Hey tattle tale Redietz why dont you report me to some University professors and to GWAE and LVA?

To be precise, though, Don Johnson did almost all of his rebate damage in Atlantic City, not Las Vegas.
I happen to actually know the details of some special negotiations for bigger sports players in Las Vegas. They are helpful and significant, but not overwhelming. On rare occasions, the general public has access to similar deals. So what I'm saying, mickey, is you shouldn't use the "money talks; bullshit walks" as some black box reasoning for why this or that happened unless you have direct knowledge of specifics for when it did make a difference in real life examples.
I have those specific examples, is what I'm saying, and I'm not sure you do. You "see no conflict," but how much experience or knowledge do you actually have regarding the subject of what a casino will do for someone putting 400K into immediate action? I know actual details and can provide specifics.
