As far as unpaid markers, while it is only since about 2000, that the casinos have gotten away with prosecuting them as bad checks, there are unsubstantiated rumors of people being offed for casino debt from the before that time. According to my family, a doctor we knew refused to pay a large sum of markers to the Vegas casinos in the early 1980s and he was mugged and murdered near where we lived, which was to this day a rather uncharacteristic crime for that very affluent area. They eventually caught the person who did it but he had no connections to the area and it made no sense that he would have come there for a mugging, it seemed clear that he had been hired. He wasn't mob or mob connected but rather some low level criminal who, the rumor was, had been paid to do the job.

Seems like fair justice for someone who refuses to pay their markers

Or, exaggerates their gambling stories.

Of course we know what happens to stay at homes who comment on the gambling chronicles of those who do. Not much! and they have nothing to talk about in the locker room either.

Day 8 play.

Baccarat.

Two sessions. Was down as much as about -13K on the first ended well ahead. Second session smaller betting won a few K.

I’m solid. Others revere my winning ways. Still, you can admire but don’t look too long. Meaning - I probably won’t allow you to play at my table.

+21400

Note: Lately, for security reasons, session reports are not necessarily presented in real time corresponding directly to the day played.



I'm willing to present a side Challenge. If anyone doubts that any one, just any one of the Session reports I present during this trip is not entirely accurate, throw down a red flag! Put up a mere ten grand in cash, let's work out how to verify the Session to your satisfaction using the Wizard as the judge, and winner takes the twenty thousand.

I'll contribute five hundred from my end for the Wizard's time if the Challenger will do the same, so that's $19,000. to the winner of this side Challenge.

This Side Challenge remains good for the duration of this particular Vegas trip.

Day 9 play.

Baccarat.

Got up an even ten K over course of a shoe then dumped it all back to even in just a few hands or so. Ended first shoe ahead +5K. Was going to call it a day but gradually got it back up to where it was and quit.

+10000

Day 10 play.

Baccarat.

Definitely wasn't easy but I was winning almost all of my larger hands. Played four shoes, some up and down, ended quite well. I had a $15K Bank winner where Player started with 4 I started with 5, Player drew a 6 to reduce to 0 (can't lose), I drew a 6 as well still won 1 over 0 (would have been a lot easier if the Player had just drawn a monkey, but hey, reducing-to-0-can't-lose was exciting).

+19500

Why does MDawg generally win more of his larger hands? He knows stuff. 😉

Here's one to do anytime you get a mandatory sixth card draw in Baccarat and the opposing side has hit itself to 0 (it works best if you have some massive bet out there, but whatever the bet, it's fun to do), before the sixth card is drawn - offer to not draw and just have the house pay you something less than what you have put there. (This works best when your side has started with more than 0.)

For example in the Day 10 play, I had $15K out there on Bank, Player started with a 4, Bank 5, and Player drew a 6 to hit itself to 0. I PROMPTLY shouted out, "Just give me ten and I won't even look!" 😂

Of course, the house has no power to accept your offer, but it's just funny to make it. Eventually some pit bosses will join in the fun, and next time it happens will step in with an offer!


At least one major Vegas casino is coming out with INSURANCE in Baccarat, which isn't all that different, in a way, from the above concept. Would I take insurance in Baccarat? Would I really take less than my full bet when the other side has hit to 0? I don't think so. But it's fun to play as if you would, and it somewhat clowns the House for putting themselves into a no win situation.

Day 11 play.

Double Deck BJ. 200 - 5500.

Not a lot of drama. Relatively smooth sailing, probably maxed out at around +17K, left when it started to go downhill some, partly just because got hungry and it was time to end for the day.

+13500

Actually one of the latest apartments, err suites, we are staying in / did stay in, is a lot more like a luxury apartment condo than hotel room. About 2000 sq. ft. winds on and on, lots of closet space, chests, drawers, bathrooms, even has an appliance or two.

New Player Card level at Wynn Vegas:
Chairman's Club! with a gold plated Player's Card.

Did MDawg achieve this level? Well, if MDawg did not, who could have?

Just a short thirteen months ago Wynn's Player Card tiered levels in Vegas didn't even exist - all were Red.

Did someone mention Baccarat limits? Here's one way to raise limits, or at least, to try (the other, which has worked for me, is to just increase credit lines, and get a private table.)

In 1970, Sinatra had just started a three-week engagement at Caesars Palace when he got into an altercation with Sanford Waterman, Caesars’ casino manager. Sinatra had been playing baccarat for $8,000 a hand at a table where the limit typically was $2,000. He asked Waterman to double the limit to $16,000 (about $115,000 in today’s dollars) and let him play on credit. Waterman refused.

Sinatra threw gambling chips, squeezed Waterman’s throat hard enough to leave marks and threatened, “The mob will take care of you.” Waterman responded by pulling a 0.38-caliber revolver from his waistband and pointing it at Sinatra, which ended the scuffle. But Sinatra cancelled the balance of his scheduled performances at Caesars because, according to his spokesperson, Sinatra was suffering from exhaustion and a recent hand surgery. Sure. (Sinatra returned to play regularly at Caesars in 1974, following his retirement.)

Waterman was arrested but released, as law enforcement and the district attorney assumed Sinatra had been the instigator. The local sheriff, Ralph Lamb, had had enough of Ol’ Blue Eyes’ rudeness and antics.

“If Sinatra comes back to town Tuesday, he’s coming downtown to get a work card, and if he gives me any trouble, he’s going to jail,” Lamb said. “I’m tired of him intimidating waiters, waitresses, starting fires and throwing pies. He gets away with too much. He’s through picking on the little people in this town. Why the owners of the hotels put up with this I plan to find out.”

(In another version of the story, charges were never filed because Sinatra refused to make a witness statement.)

Why is there no apostrophe in Caesars? Because it is not Caesar's Palace (singular) belonging to Caesar - rather, everyone who stays there is considered and treated like a Caesar - so it belongs to all of its guests, all Caesars. Hail!

Comes to mind.

The song My Way. Yes fits in perfectly here.

From Wiki:

“ Anka finished the song at 5 in the morning: "I called Frank up in Nevada—he was at Caesars Palace – and said, 'I've got something really special for you.'"[6] Anka asserted: "When my record company caught wind of it, they were very pissed that I didn't keep it for myself. I said, 'Hey, I can write it, but I'm not the guy to sing it.' It was for Frank, no one else."”

Double deck BJ. 300 - 16000.

There were some ups and down, but a relatively steady climb up toward the latter end of the session.

Day 14 play.

DD BJ. 500 - 25000.

Special limits didn’t help today. Was up and down but mostly down. I probably could have kept playing and tried to end the session ahead but I started thinking about how I’m ahead for the trip and one losing session isn’t going to kill me so I just left.

-19000

Just as DarkOz can't say "I make $20,000 a week" I can't say that "I make $10,000. a day" in Vegas. Just when I think such a figure is a given, I get a day where I lose that much, or more.

Over all though, what you have to avoid in casino play are the serious blowouts. If session losses are commensurate with an average day's win, you'll be fine in the long run.

link to original post



Well, Darkoz' initial statement as to his earnings was even more flippant (the way I interpret it, anyway) than that...and I tend not to think something that he thought he would be held to as some sort of absolute claim.

That said, I don't know how you (or anyone else) would want an AP or anyone who doesn't have a set salary/hourly to go about saying what they make over x period. I don't make any public claims anyway, but what I make varies based on what I'm doing.

For instance, if I take a day totally off, then I don't make anything that day. If I write, then it depends mostly on how much work I get done that day. If I'm doing AP, then my expectation varies largely based on what it is I am doing that day and how much time I am spending doing it.

With that, the only terms I'd put it in are annual, but as Darkoz says, even that can vary. As far as anyone not named, "Mission146," needs to know, I made more than $0 and less than $1,000,000 last year...and, if pressed, I'll admit it was closer to zero than it was to a million...but that's about as specific as anyone has any right to know.

As far as dollars in and out per trip, I figure that keeping it to session reports suffices.

I am not sure (tangibly) what this level receives any more than any other level. For one thing as Wynn Dollars rewards approach $10K you had to spend them or they would cease to accrue - with Chairman's level the ceiling is $20K, but if you spend them, that isn't any real benefit, unless you manage to rack up more than $10K of Wynn Dollars in just one session, which would be difficult.



At some properties, for example at some Caesars Ent. properties, having anything under Diamond practically makes you a second class citizen - unable to even get your car valeted. At such properties the tier level makes a real difference.

You are simply fantastic!

Just don’t run out and get those face tattoos, they draw suspicion from the common security people for unjustified reasons.

And I think they should have a tier known as, The MDawg Level.

The free nights and resort credit mean not much, because I am RFB wherever I go anyway, but the promo chips are pursuant to blackjack play late last year, and winning blackjack play. So, there you go Alan, it is possible to get promo chips at RedRock without playing Baccarat and without losing.

Of the casinos at which I play, Station Casinos are pretty much the only ones who send me these sorts of emails. For the others I just book the trips and ask for promo chips directly from my hosts every now and then.

Day 16 play.

DD Blackjack. 500 - 25000.

Quite a day's play. I walked into one casino, played barely an hour, dumped about sixty K. Took care of some errands, went to another casino, and played literally eleven hours straight. I was up about thirty K after about an hour, then dumped it all in about four hands to go back to flat even. I plodded on, gradually getting to about plus twenty K, and then had some back and forth kept getting stuck at about plus forty to fifty K, and finally, exhausted, ended that session at about one hundred and seventeen K ahead. That is close to some of my records for a single session. Granted, I was driven on to win more by the fact that I had already dumped sixty K elsewhere, but still, quite a session.

Tiring, but rewarding.

+57000 (not including the concession I negotiated at the losing casino).

Note: Lately, for security reasons, session reports are not necessarily presented in real time corresponding directly to the day played.



I'm willing to present a side Challenge. If anyone doubts that any one, just any one of the Session reports I present during this trip is not entirely accurate, throw down a red flag! Put up a mere ten grand in cash, let's work out how to verify the Session to your satisfaction using the Wizard as the judge, and winner takes the twenty thousand.

I'll contribute five hundred from my end for the Wizard's time if the Challenger will do the same, so that's $19,000. to the winner of this side Challenge.

This Side Challenge remains good for the duration of this particular Vegas trip.

I’m more interested in the concession you negotiated! And I ABSOLUTELY would include it in my win/loss for the day!

The percentages I negotiated are very good, especially considering that my session losses haven't been very high in the scheme of Las Vegas play (but my credit lines, ARE very high, which gives me negotiating firepower). If I were to report the exact percentages, someone who is an actual player (are there any on this website?) might press his host to match such a deal and then there might be blowback as in "No one is getting that deal including you, from now on!" So, when I leave certain details vague, including where I am playing and where or when exactly things happened, it is deliberate.

I was just standing there today, not at the tables, actually, just near one of the casino restaurants waiting on a take out order, and this pretty hot, thin young girl, mmm, I'd say low twenties came up to me and said, "Can I ask you something?" and, just the way she said it put me at ease, so I replied gently, "What?" and she said, "Do you work out?" and I said “Yes, “and she smiled broadly, stroked my arm and said, "I thought so" and I said "Thank you" and she walked away as I walked into the restaurant. Now, in general when that sort of thing happens in Vegas, I think, Working Girl! but, Later I saw her with her friend and they looked very civilian very touristy she was bouncing around happily looking at very touristy attractions in the hotel.

Day 18 play.

DD Blackjack. 300 - 4500.

Pretty mellow session, but still won handily. Just goes to show that if you're winning most of your hands, it doesn't even take much of a spread to win big.

+22300

CRAPS.

There are times when people have commented that I roll like nothing they’ve even seen - when I’ve actually been calling (and betting) my rolls - five three on the hop! times when I’ve cleared twenty thirty grand in minutes and then just walked. Other times I’ve been unable to hit the point to save my life.

Does this mean that my powers of telekinesis were strong some nights but not others, or that I was lucky some nights but not others?


I haven't played Craps in many years.

My health insurance plan has a wellness program. I get a prepaid Visa card sent to me as rewards for having checkups and keeping track of my steps walked.

Exactly we get that and more. Entitled, Wellness Program Incentive. Also get large discounts on our health premiums and we get almost free memberships to various health clubs as well as a few other benefits and perks as well.

Different from a checkup and it is called a ‘physicians screening’.

Day 19 play.

An unwanted repeat of the Day 16 session where I dumped a ton in one casino, and then won it all back plus a bit in another.

+950 (Again, not counting the concession from the losing casino.)

When I play Baccarat people come up to me constantly and ask -

But how do you know when to place your larger bets? EVERY time you lay it out there you seem to win, and most of the time with a natural hand.

I watch, I look, I try to figure out what it is you're doing, and I just can't figure it out.


Luckily, neither can the House!

Throwing down more money after a loss doesn't guarantee a win. But not throwing down after a loss, does guarantee confirm that prior loss.

Don't play with money you can't afford to lose!
