So happy for you man! I know that's just a small percentage of the previous losses, but it is a great rebate and a great start to your trip. There's 10 units for the blackjack table!

Wow! Impressive!!! Now that's a good omen- good luck on the rest of trip!
Now here's to doubling that shit on the blackjack table!

YES!!!!
200+% of the Free Play, in $$$ form!!!
I believe you owe it to yourself to take one $100 pull, at this point.
Keep killing it man! I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for updates, pulling hard for you!

Well the $100 machine is nice and shiny - I am going to eat some dinner and then hit the blackjack tables - this is MY weekend!!!

It's beautiful, and both the handle and spin button are virtually germ-free as almost nobody touches either of them, so you won't catch a cold. If nothing else, you should save it until the end...If you don't get up to the +$5,000K by the time the weekend is over, make the machine your last shot!
Quote: JuyemuraWoo hoo! Keep us updated!
Blackjack update #1:
I played two shoes - was back and forth then got up $600 and put $200 up as I had a good count - of course pair of 7's against a 4 so i split get a 3 on first hand double down get a 6 so i stay then get a 10 for 17 on second - dealer flips over another 4 then gets a 10 for 18 so the 600 i was up was gone so i left that session even
amusing and disturbing sightings:
it seems the ladies of the evening have discovered Revel - got to love the Daisy Dukes with lucite stripper heels
2 co-eds approached me as I was playing the slots earlier with the "our wallets were stolen on the beach" and could I spare a few dollars for them to take the bus lol
disturbing sight was a pregnant woman drinking a glass of wine with her husband and
friends - just lovely
more updates as the night progresses (dinner time)

How much did you give the Co-Eds? (Kidding)
had a great dinner at an Italian place called Lugo (spaghetti and chicken parm for those interested)
back to blackjack
sat down and won the first 5 hands at $100 each then lost 3 hands then finally hit a double down with $150 up - then a blackjack with $200 up against a dealer ACE and of course I declined insurance - BAM - nobody home
aceofspades finished the shoe +$1k
total from slots and blackjack +2024
keep the positive vibes coming!

My man AceofSpades! If I have any luck at Mohegan this Summer I will come down to AC to chill with you. Don't think I can afford black action but I'd play a green table with you. Then again, even if I don't do well at Mohegan I'd probably still come down, I'm 21 years old, who needs a room? Kill it tomorrow my man, +10k will be the next report!

Excellent work, AceofSpades!!!
You're 40% of the way there. You might not even need the whole weekend the way you are going!!!
Revel shall tremble in fear of the Death Card!
the gambling to party with a couple of NY Giants my host introduced me to - great for networking!
If I went in with $500 free play, I'd QUIT with $2024 in my pocket!!
Quote: aceofspadesIt was white wine and if the Revel allowed smoking, pehaps she would have lit one up - ughhhhhhh
that ends an aceofspades-itorial - time to shower, have breakfast and take a quick walk on the boardwalk for some fresh ocean air then back to the tables!!!

Stay within your bankroll. No steaming. You'll get em.
Only play slots in between sessions or with those FREE slot play vouchers.
Great that you had taken the time to report from the " trenches".
The best for the remainder of the weekend.
WASHOO2
went into high limit room - lost 5 hands then won 2 then played up and down for two shoes where I was overall even - put up $100 bet got a pair of 8's versus dealer upcard 5 - split the 8's got another 8 split it to another 8 so now had four hands with 8's - got dealt a 2 on first one double down got a 9...got dealt a 3 on second one double down got a Queen...got another 3 on third one double down dealt a 6...last 8 got another 2 for double down got dealt a 5
at this point my heart is beating faster and faster - I jokingly asked if anyone had nitroglycerin and the pit boss actually did
ok dealer has 5 showing turns over a 6 (DAMN!) - pulls a 4 (ok 15 now where I thought she would have been in the first place) - her next card turned excruciatingly slow and BAM - a 9 for a BUST!!!
end of session #4 +850 (no idea where the $26 came from but I'm not complaining)
Man, I sure hope Revel is comping the shit outta you! (but then again, they did give you $500 freeplay voucher)
Keep it up...enough of those $100 hands and you'll be at $5000 in no time!
Quote: TIMSPEEDDamn, so that hand was what, like a $600 swing?!?

More like $1600 swing as I had $800 up on the table...
Yeah I am taken care of by my host very nicely - I just passed the 4 tables I abandoned earlier and everyone was winning - all telling me I "left too early" - meanwhile, nobody knows the sacred order of the cards so my leaving may have helped them but if I had stayed, hurt us all

Well let's see. Free rooms, concert tickets last time, met giants players, 500 dollar free play, free meals im sure. not too shabby.
played with a delightful dealer named Mary who repeatedly killed me on my double downs (including pushing me twice with 21) - and her getting 5 blackjacks to
my none --- end of shoe one I was -$700
pressing onward to shoe #2
I started out with 5 winning hands in a row - 2 of whch were double down worthy but at this point I was playing with "scared money" and did not double down - of course I would have won those hands but c'est la vie
end of session huge comeback +$1100
I'm back baby!
In the spirit of keeping you winning, im going to go play some $3 BJ at western village, haha ;p
(hopefully appeasing the bj gods, and keeping the good cards going your way!)

Best of luck to you as well!!!
now +$1100 for the trip
more updates soon!
Quote: aceofspadesWell after only getting 4 hours of sleep last night, I ended up crashing, hence no trip report for a couple of hours - I am going to grab something caffeinated and head back down to the casino floor - keep the positive vibes a'comin'!!!
Get plenty of sleep, it is not advisable to play tired.
Quote: IbeatyouracesKeep up the good work.
Earlier today I had an hour and a half session for +$745.00 on a nice heads up $25 game.
Very nice, were you counting/if so what were you spreading?
Quote: IbeatyouracesYes. My spread for the table was min to max ($25-$500) but my largest bet was only $220. Decent counts but nothing spectacular. Good variance helps.
20 units at that level seems aggressive, light black shouldn't draw any attention though. What kind of a buy-in do you make playing at that level? I find if you buy in for too much you get a lot of attention.
Great session, congratulations!
Had some dinner and then hit the tables - $100minimum - full table - started off strong winning the first three hands then unceremoniously lost the next four after that - up and down, down and up through 2 shoes - guy playing centerfield cashes out mid-shoe (no biggie) - I finally get a blackjack then whoooooooaaaaaa a second blackjack back to back leaving my chips in the circle - up and down the next few hands then BAM - 5 hands in a row including 2 double downs, cut card comes out - aceofspades checks his chips :drum roll:
end of trip +$2200
:-)
I thank all of you who supported me through this trip - now I just need a few more trips like this!!!

Very good trip. Proud of you for sticking to your guns and not overbetting when things headed South for a little bit. Sounds like you had a lot of fun, and winning is always nice too!

Yeah after the final shoe I ended up watching the Pacquiao fight with my new buddies from the NY Giants - we were all shocked by the decision wow!!!
I am possibly coming back here next week for a blackjack tournament - but, not set in stone yet - I will keep everyone updated!
Remember where you got nearly half of that, that's right, the Slots!!!
What about that $100 pull, one time?
