The Adventures of MDawg II
Last time I won big at this casino though, I didn't bring any bag with me, and they were out of them. You can't always assume that you're going to win more than will fit in your pockets, and often I'll just take a check or walk with the chips to cash them at another time, especially if we are staying in house. When staying in house you can't cash too much at once because your line will be temp closed. If you're walking in for just a single session and don't plan to be back anytime soon, you don't care, and take it all.
I have a lot of these or similar bags, but usually neglect to bring them with me when I play.
A dark and looming stack of $50K.
Two of these will fit into one of those money bags easily, but then you're walking around with something that you can't even stash under your coat, if you're even wearing a coat.

Lol, wow, thanks.
Point to one other AP with APB's placed on him by NJ state troopers with the words, "no charges against him but be on the lookout for him" and I will agree.
Thanks Unjon for the translation.

We should compare run ins. I’m still 100 percent active tho so I would not want to post the stuff you have on a public message board about such instances. I had 46 people or maybe 48 I can’t remember high 40s 86ed for a play recently. I’ve made entire Clubs be forced to change the way they rate players for free play.
In retrospect I regret such plays now. Driven by revenge and hate plus the will to make the casino pay at all cost.

Are you actually saying I can’t fit 50k in my two front jean pockets. Only using 100 bills ? Would you care to wager on this ? I literally walk around with 30 to 50 k every single day. I’m willing to bet you on this

Yes it's not a biggie. Obviously it depends on the fit and cut of the jeans. Some even have multiple pockets.
I also have been responsible for player's clubs changing their entire system and methods but no, it's never a good thing.
And I too did a revenge/war with a casino. Ended up costing more in the long run. I learned it's better to quietly find other stomping grounds, avoid the war and in a year or two stop back in and see if things have gone lax again.
you'd be better off putting the money in your coat or carrying it in a bag.
So if you're into the baggier look, easy fit! More into glam rock skinny fitting jeans, maybe not!
Quote: MDawgIt would depend on the fit of your pants. Dress slacks or even mildly fitted slacks, fine. Tighter jeans, or something like this

Relaxed fit jeans Mavi or lucky from Mens warehouse. No it would not fit in skinny jeans the youth wear but neither would my junk.
Seriously I have 25 to 30k in one pocket every day. Like right now I have 23k in one pocket. Yes you can’t fit anything else in if you have 50k and it’s not ideal but it’s definitely possible. I don’t utilize casino credit or lines. I use cash I don’t particularly want the casino knowing my business. A bag or man purse is definitely a better way to Carry large sums of money I’m not disagreeing. Alan Just basically said it wasn’t possible lol

Having over forty of your crew banned from a particular location definitely breaks my record.
Most people I had banned the same month from one location was about eight.

On the rare occasions that I carry large sums of cash I usually wear a sport coat and keep it in the inside pockets.

All signed by Mr McKenna himself 8 to 10 months after the play. Funny thing is they just used the fraud allegations because they had no idea what was up. Obviously many of these people were not really in my crew. It seems that some just got banned for being in the vicinity of someone suspected to be running the play. If I had to do If over again I wouldn’t have went as big. Revenge and ego got the best of me

I have no idea how big your pants are. I know I can't fit $20k in hundreds in my pockets. And there have been many $20k royals in my life.

Head of security at a certain casino chain
Considering streaks. Coin toss. There’s a player who always bets heads. The coin comes up heads 13 times in a row. The odds of 13 heads in a row are 8912 to 1. So then the odds of the guy who always bets heads winning 13 in a row are 8912 to 1.
What about the guy who alternates his bet sometimes bets heads sometimes tails. Are the odds that he’ll get 13 right in a row the same 8912 to 1?
Quote: MDawgThere are various discussions about the odds of winning.

If the coin of fair, then yes.
hhhhhhhhhhhhh
Happens exactly as often as
htthhhththtth
ETA: And maybe this is the point you are trying to make. The first pattern is more likely to have people bet it and ride the streak vs the second. Because people’s brains seek out patterns and when they find them in nature, even if the result of mere chance, they bet them.
I know this player who always bets the Tie at Baccarat. So when it hits, I clown him by saying, "How did you know the tie was going to hit?" and add, "Oh - that's right, you bet the tie every hand."
Similarly, a player who bets nothing but Bank, if he wins on a Bank run it doesn't mean as much as if a player who bets both sides hits the same Bank run and profits heavily.
Canelo v. GGG fight, tournaments (tourists not allowed), Life is Beautiful festival, Motor Trend Int'nl Auto Show, and more.
Sounds like an AP to me!

She's right too, because sometimes I just wander into whatever casino I haven't played at lately....
However, in my mind, spreading the play out over time per casino does have its advantages too, perhaps not so much as far as getting offers though.
Friday evening traffic is bumper to bumper even on back-street-to-the-Strip, Koval.
I always said that the reason for the loud carpet was so that basically blind Steve Weinberg could find his way around his casino.
But even now that he's 86'ed, still the loud color theme continues.

Many low rollers like Ellis Island. The last few times I was there they were giving additional free play if you brought your change in. I don't remember the exact number but it may have been a 10% bonus in free play. I was doing it every day while it was allowed. I probably did 10's of thousands of dollars worth or change.
Way too many meth heads living there, not a place I would hang out.

I think the inside is nicer also.
About thirty minutes after our brush with the Okies we pulled into an all-night diner on the Tonopah highway, on the skirts of a mean/scag ghetto called "North Las Vegas." Which is actually outside the city limits of Vegas proper. North Vegas is where you go when you've f'ed up once too often on the Strip, and when you're not even welcome in the cut-rate downtown places around Casino Center.
This is Nevada's answer to East St. Louis - a slum and a graveyard, last stop before permanent exile to Ely or Winnemuca. North Vegas is where you go if you're a hooker turning thirty and the syndicate men on the Strip decide you're no longer much good for business out there with the high rollers . . . or if you're a pimp with bad credit at the Sands . . . or what they still call, in Vegas, "a hophead." This can mean almost anything from a mean drunk to a junkie, but in terms of commercial acceptability, it means you're finished in all the right places.
So once you get blacklisted on the Strip, for any reason at all, you either get out of town or retire to nurse your act along, on the cheap, in the shoddy limbo of North Vegas . . . out there with the gunsels, the hustlers, the drug cripples and all the other losers. North Vegas, for instance, is where you go if you need to score smack before midnight with no references.

A few misnomers. The downtown part of North Las vegas is a true ghetto but there are nicer more upscale subdivisions in parts of North Las Vegas.
I have never had a taxi refuse to take me into North Las Vegas. They don't like it but they do it. I don't know why they consider Ely and Winnemucca to be exile. They are just small Nevada towns. I actually like Ely.

Can MDawg be a pauper hauling pounds of loose change for some freeplay?

Can MDawg be a pauper hauling pounds of loose change for some freeplay?
I know that if I was wealthy I would not. To me making a couple thousand dollars off of free play is an easy decision.
But, how were you coming up with tens of thousands in change? Taking cash to the bank to get change, and then going to the casino? At the banks nowadays there tend to be signs about how they apologize but don't have much coins.
If the economy is so bad, who is buying all these goods?
What's that supposed to mean? It sounds like some veiled insultQuote: MDawgPassing by (wasn't this AxelWolf and PokerGrinder's go-to-casino?)

Quote: AxelWolfIf the shoe fit (sic)...
I thought it was 20% but I cannot remember now. I think it started at 20% and they lowered it. There were places doing up to 25% during the covid change shortage. Obviously, they would limit the amounts you could exchange. People were making thousands a week in California doing this.Quote: MDawgIf a bank or casino offered some decent incentive such as the 10% mentioned for hauling in your change, and I had enough lying around (which I do, actually), I'd bring it in especially if they would count it for me.

At one time, my wife and I went to the bank and I bought bricks/ cans of quarters, I had forgotten how heavy they were so I had to make multiple trips to get them all in the car. Whenever we got the chance to exchange them for free play getting whatever extra percentage they were offering, we would do so.
I like "free money." Obviously there's a time commitment and a little work, but it's kinda fun. Unlike some people, I don't need or want to be in action gambling all the time. Sometimes I really enjoy it, sometimes I don't, it all depends on what I'm doing at the time. I enjoy the prosses and everything that goes into beating the casinos. The actual playing its not the reason I do what I do.

You may be right, I don't even remember if I took my pills this morning.
