Wizard is incorrect mickey. Either intentionally or unintentionally. If you read his posted July 21 he says: "The play is pretty much dead" and "I have heard everybody has put a max bet on this of $25 or less". THIS IS FALSE! He "heard" wrong.Originally Posted by mickeycrimm
The play was in the process of dying it is true. Some casinos had started to reduce the amount of the side bet from the full $100 Max (Colorado limit at the time) to 25% of the main bet or $25. But not everywhere. It was a casino by casino movement.
We were camped out, living in a motel playing 2 properties at the time. The day wizard made that post Max bets were 100% of main bet or $100. The day after he made that post Max Bets for the side bet had dropped to 25% or $25. I came home the next day. My brother stayed for a few days looking around and of course found nothing.
Wizard put the final stake in that play! And I didn't know it at the time but other AP's playing that play, begged him to hold off and he didn't. Maybe it would have only been a few extra days or weeks, but he made sure it ended that day.
