Caveat Gamblor: They won't let you use the $10 matchplay and the $25 matchplay on the same day.

depending on their procedure, you can probably get away with it on different shifts on the same day. if they just eye it and drop it, then definitely.

I was just there to use the ACG coupon, and was surprised that they don't open their table games until 3:00 pm, at least on a weekday !

I was there at 3:00 back on Memorial Day or maybe the day after, also to play the ACG coupon. The pit wasn't open. I asked an employee if/when it would open and she didn't seem to know. Very odd.

I meant to stop at the Westin this summer while in Vegas but couldn't or (chose not to) squeeze it in. When in town, I'm not on any schedule other than to put in time at a decent blackjack game. This visit would have been purely nostalgic.

I played a lot of blackjack there in the mid to late 80's. It was called the Maxim back then and offered some fantastic single deck blackjack. I met several card counters there and we played with virtually no heat betting any way we pleased whenever we pleased. Eventually, I pushed to far and was backed off a few times only to return on another shift to continue my play. I finally got barred from blackjack but never from the property.


I was a pretty good counter but stubborn about cover. This was my personal ATM machine and I could do whatever I pleased. My fellow players warned me but I wouldn't listen. As far as I know, no one else in my circle was looked at twice let alone barred.

It just goes to show how cocky/stupid one can be. Those were good and profitable times.

Does anyone remember the Maxim?
