EV: the difference between the real APs and the poser dawgs.

Shouldn't be getting back roomed? I guess that's what happens when you know how to legitimately beat casinos.
And the truth of the matter is...I've actually managed to avoid being 86ed much less than most of the people playing the same things over the same period of oftentimes even on the same plays. Considering the fact that I was in Griffin I managed to do pretty good avoiding detection.

Amen to this. Minimizing backoffs, backroom and 86ed are the key to winning advantage play now. ALL the advancements on the casino end have come in detecting and identifying advantage players. Even with all the new AP opportunities in things like slots, as well as new table games, you can't win if you can't play. An AP today has got to find ways to stay in the game.

And that doesn't necessarily mean "tricking" casino surveillance or personnel. Just as important, even more important to me, is identifying style of play, session limits and betting limits that are better tolerated. You can't eliminate backoffs, heat, 86ing, as it is part of doing business as an AP. but you can minimize it. I cannot emphasize enough that for me and I believe all types of advantage play now, this is paramount.

And that is why when you read some story about a guy winning large amounts of money and casinos not caring, it is just fantasy. It isn't real.
