if you are going to make this interactive or a "live" trip report then please follow through. There have been many people who say they will do it but then they decide not to or forget to post updates.

Pics would be great as well, but don't over do it.

How about taking on the best casino in town & do a trip report on it? It will love your black actions in its pit#1. Good luck.

This is the first match play they've given me since October of 2013 and back then they gave me $30


Apparently the inside track on the auction is going to Hard Rock (but take that with a grain of salt)

First session which was a mini-session as I was interrupted by a client phone call


First hand used my match play with the dealer and pit boss laughing at the absurdity of a $15 match play coupon for me
Lost the first hand 20 to 19
Second hand I got a natural
Pressed the 150 and lost

A few nondescript hands later I was even and was dealt another natural
I left it up and won
Then got a phone call I couldn't refuse


Trip is +300

Well, the retail stores seem to all be having sales and one of them even looks like they are clearing out.
The floor is pretty empty for a Friday but, then again, no more or less than a usual Friday down here.

FLASHBACK


So, while on hiatus after the Vegas thread, I was down in AC…

About 11:30pm, I had passed a tall, curvy woman with glasses who I swore I recognized…
We smiled as we passed one another but that was it for the moment
About 20 minutes later I Was talking to a roulette dealer I am friendly with and she happened to walk by again
I stopped her and told her she looked very familiar to me
She looked at me quizzically as a lightbulb went off above my head
I asked her if she happened to be at the Aria in Las Vegas over Memorial Day weekend
She said "Yes, I live in Vegas but I'm here on vacation…are you here alone?"
It all started coming back to me now - so I told her I was indeed alone
She then said, "We should fix that."
I then laughingly stated, "You know, you used the exact same sales pitch on me in Vegas"
She then leaned in and asked me if I had taken her up on the offer last time
I said "No, I did not'
And she replied, right on cue "Don't make the same mistake twice"
I laughed and wished her a good evening…

I told the Wizard about this privately and he agreed with me that the forum would not likely believe me based upon probability - but, nevertheless, it is true.

To find their level of desperation, offer the
best looking one $50 for the whole night
and report back to us what her answer
was. I know you don't go in the direction,
but this is purely a research situation.

Just played two shoes

Shoe one was not fun

Lost 6 of 8 hands at one point
Another player berated my following play to his friend (under his breath):
He had 1k up and was dealt a 7,4 v dealer 6
He doubled and got a 7 for 18
I had 6,6 and I split
Got another 6
Hand 1: 6,8
Hand 2: 6,10
Hand 3: 6,10

Dealer had 6...turned over a King then drew a 3 for 19

He slammed his fist on the table then repeatedly stated to his friend that splitting 6's is never the right play and that I took the tens from the dealer

This I do believe. She gets points for being whitty

As far as the $15 in FP the Revel probably has a special rating for Speed Counters. I'm surprised they let that $15 fall through the cracks.

You need to take up Speed hold VP( discounts penalty cards and rare hand changes, book coming soon). They still send My GF $50 in FP once a month and she played less then 1 hr on 9/6.

Can you go to Showboat? I would like to see a pic of the sequential royal progressive and a pic of the progressive slots on the raised floor smoking section I believe called Bank Busters. They're old machines. I tried hitting the jackpots for 45 minutes playing 1 nickel and loved it.
