Another Ace lying TR
Dealer shuffles and is immediately tapped out
I lost the first 7 hands
Won 2 in a row
Then the dealer made a 19, 20 or BJ the next 6 hands
Of course I am probably making all of this up since it happens more than 45 seconds ago
Are you sure you want to reengage this way? It seems like you want to pick a fight.Quote: aceofspadesOf course I am probably making all of this up since it happens more than 45 second ago
I was in Vegas last week. Played at TI heads up with the dealer. Bought in for $100 at a $10 DD H17 table.
The $100 was gone in one shuffle + one hand of the second shuffle. It was a disaster.

are you sure it was 7?
haha, jk of course.
I hope you are the positive side of variance this trip.
Oh btw, you never sent my confirmation number for the barenaked ladies concert that you are taking me to.
Ace, your detractors might, or might not, believe video???
Edit: Best of luck to you this trip. May you take more than your fair share.
Took a break and bought back in
played with 2 other gentlemen at the table
between the two of them, they were dealt 5 blackjacks
However, the dealer had 3 blackjacks of his own
The lowlight was the following last hand of the shoe:
Me: KK
Player 2: 10,J
Player 3: 10, Q
Dealer: 5, 4, 3, 2, 7
(but, it did happen and I put it in my notes since it was the end of the shoe - but, the 3 seconds it took me to get my phone out to write a note could have render my memory useless)
The two gentlemen left and the downswing continued until about halfway into the next shoe where Iw as finally able to make a run and get my buy-in back
Trip still -1500
[side note which I am sure I will be lambasted for———I slammed my fist on the table at one point after losing to yet another dealer 21 when I had 20 and security came over and informed me that another outburst like that and I would be asked to leave LOL — I think they are scared of my SC]
I keep thinking that what you are really trying to say is that you are being cheated

Nope
Quote: aceofspadesNope
gee you must have hit the table hard for security to actually care.
Dealer has 7 showing
Turn over 3
Then Ace
Better luck to you next session.

Well that right there is the beauty of playing craps. When the dealing or points heading your way are that bad, craps will let you go the other way. And, and dice pays odds so you can catch up quicker, it's not like going head to head against the casino at bj and hoping to get a better payout than even money with a 3/2 or 6/5 every great once in a while.
Come on over, there is plenty of room on the dark side.
Also with craps you don't have to count any damn thing, it doesn't matter how many aces have been played.
Quote: Lemieux66Was there a count?
There is always a count - but the SC is not forum-approved

Yessir! If you're not willing to pretend to have fun, Revel has no use for you. Don't you know that angry people play at the Taj?

Ace;
Love ya. Mean it. Wish you the best of it. Stop poking the bear (this post and 1/2 dozen in the thread) please; it's approaching a bait-and-troll. Thanks.
Others; not open season. Please do not engage with a rehash of last month's argument.
That's assuming I am playing for fun.
They're gambling games. They are supposed to be fun.
Quote: sodawaterIf I were playing for fun and the game was making me angry enough to slam my fist on the table when I lost a hand, I would take a break from playing until I was ready to enjoy the game, win or lose.

But given how Ace played last trip, I don't think he's quite wired like that. I think it's probably the best idea to take a break from an outside perspective, but I know I don't like to quit when I'm losing in the heat of the moment. :-\
Was only down 500 by the end of last night…
Played this morning - YUCK!
Dealer had 3 blackjacks in first 4 hands (father and son playing at my table said dealer got 3 in a row to start shoe last night when they were at Borgata)
We quickly got destroyed in the first shoe…
At this point I was down 2k
I took a break and had some breakfast
Went back in and had a nice SC and made 1k back
Had to make some phone calls and actually fell asleep - it was a nice nap
Took a walk outside and got some fresh air and some sun
Played a mini-session that was interrupted by a client emergency but I had gotten 600 more back
Took dad out for Father's day with my mom but, prior to that, while waiting for them to arrive, sat and got the other 600 back
So, after dinner, I am now even - going to ready myself for the evening ahead

Perhaps you accompanied the outburst with an expletive that you don't recall. Usually it has to be an upscale place for security to say anything to you since its the Floor and Pit's job to call security. Surveillance calls in fights too but rarely does security get sent unless the Floor made a phone call.

You are correct - there was an F*bomb!

+2. If it is too much to handle, just take a break. Do something else. Like go to the pool and watch all the half naked ladies.Quote: GWAE+1 couldn't agree more
Quote: strictlyAPTrue story I am at a pa casino as we speak and the floor is talking about this thread
No way!!!
Need a full report!
She said no and shuffled
As soon as she was about to deal the cards she gets a tap on the shoulder for a break
So the dealer turned to the other dealer and told her she is not set for a break
Yet--I said if they are switching dealers on me and it's not even a break then I am punching table--so the pit boss tells the second dealer to go check the schedule--I said when they did this to me yeaterday the dealer got blackjacks the first three of four hands and I started to color up--pit boss asks if I want to play with the dealer who shuffled until it is straightened out---so I said yeah but now that I said if u change dealers it's an automatic blackjack I guarantee I'm going to screw myself over and this dealer will get a blackjack---of course first hand dealer has an Ace up BAM! Blackjack ughhhh
Ok so next hand I win and then I win a double THEN the other dealer comes in so I left
Never heard of dealers coming in on weird times like that it's usually like 8, 8:20 and 8:40
So I'm actually up 200 now lol
Quote: aceofspadesNever heard of dealers coming in on weird times like that it's usually like 8, 8:20 and 8:40.
That's been happening more and more often to me too. It started with a relief dealer being called in because a guy was betting 5k a hand on PGP, and escalated to a BJ table with 25-100$ bets that had 5 dealers in the span of 3 hands. Yes, two dealers actually got tapped out after the shuffle but before dealing.
Is that +200 for the current trip, or YTD?

Won a couple more hands...
Trip is +400
YTD IS -3400
This whole switching dealers on off time immediately before the first card is dealt seems strange to me
Quote: strictlyAPI had the wizard chart up for Spanish 21 floor saw it started talking to other pit and he was telling him about the site he said yea I'm familiar there was a good thread about some jerk and I quote jerk lawyer who got his ass kicked in Vegas they weren't being mean more laughing but I. Was hysterical
Lol
Quote: strictlyAPAce I'm in ac all the time I think I should sweat you one night so I can add independent verification of the trip- thoughts?
I want to be at that table too!
Quote: aceofspadesam I sensing a desire for a WoV AC meet-up in the works...?
I'm down for this week. Should be getting in at about 1030 PM Wednesday night.
A dealer buddy of mine just got back from Vegas and found out SLS did not hire him. Additionally, a host I know in Vegas turned down SLS for Maryland Live.
Ok, back to blackjack
So I was up 400 and sat down to play but I was growing tired...
As seems par for the course, the dealer won the first 4 hands and I was quickly only even again
There was, finally, some back and forth
All of a sudden some lady comes up and plants a sloppy kiss on my cheek--she said I was "sexy" and couldn't resist giving me a "good luck smooch" lol
She disappeared as quickly as she appeared and the game moved on
Apparently, "Morgana's" smoocheroo worked...
I went on a nice run and by the end of the shoe I was up 1k
Feeling tired and finally ahead, I grabbed a snack and called it a night
Trip +1k
YTD -2900
