A typical 2 hours at sands bethlehem

Go in with 450. Spend the next 2 hours min betting 15 - and occasionally varying the amount to about 50 when i get pissed off because im losing but there is a flow of which when i think i am going to win and i win. they have a knack for keeping you in to keep you gambling.

anways i throw my last 35 dollars in. im playing kings bounty side bet - yes im stupid but i feel 20s come out more often then the majority of the people say - l claim ignorance otherwise.

2 king of spades 200 to 1 with a 5 dollar bet - unfortunately the dealer doesnt have blackjack otherwise it would have been 1000 to 1.

ive had this situation happen on 21+3 side bet and the dealer started to FREAK out. she was like you have no clue what this hand is do you?

win a grand plus the $30 hand and leave immediately.

So you started with 450, then down to 35, then back up to 1000, all within 2 hours?

I don't think I could handle that variance.... haha... I'd be sweating the whole time, and probably would have walked away when I was down 200 and gotten a stiff drink.

Good job, though.

we have a saying at my casino and probably elsewhere but we say "ace or face" because the dealer has an ace or face card almost 90 percent of the time. whenever they have that i say the f word almost every time. im a regular so they tolerate me fortunately.

I have noticed quite often at Sands, the drunk/losing drifter will come in to a table with his last handful of chips and plop them down on the felt. Only to be dealt a Blackjack or solid hand of 20 and double their money up. They will either play a few more hands and leave ahead or lose it all on a big double down or split and then slink back into the shadows.

My personal strategy at Sands is grind it out at the low limit tables and wait for a positive count and press to 4-6 unit spread. When ahead, get off the table before anybody notices and head to the cashier.

do you think there is a difference as to how the cards come out at sands or do you think this is how it is everywhere? i would probably stop thinking about rigged ASMs if some one comes up with a solid argument against them
