I would like to state for the 31,416th time that bad players neither help nor hurt other players at the blackjack table.

I see what you did there.

The player mistakes that bother me the most are:

(1) Playing any game on the Strip when there are better odds at downtown or off-strip casinos (except Park MGM, I'll understand if people want to pay a premium to avoid noxious smoke).

(2) Playing slots anywhere. That's a rookie mistake if there ever was one.

For me, it's people playing $10 6:5 bj but betting $15+ when a couple of tables away is $15min 3:2 bj.

Along the same line:
Betting black chip ($100) on single deck 6:5 bj when $15 3:2 bj is a few tables away.
Craps is paradise (Pair of dice). Lets hear it for the SpeedCount Mathletes :)

I think for the longest time, casinos thought that players were way savvier than they actually are, and so were loath to make the games worse. Then when they started doing it and still got play, they thought, "Wow, these people will play anything," and that accelerated the ruination of the games.

However, I don't think the casinos are making more money. Every year there are fewer and fewer tables, and fewer and fewer slots. I think people came to Vegas with a set gambling budget and play until they lose it, the only difference is how fast it takes them to lose (faster with bad odds, slower with good odds). And when people lose their money quickly, it's not fun and they're less likely to play again in the future. So, I think the casinos are shooting themselves in the foot. If they set all the slots to 99% they'd probably make more money, because all the seats would be full.

Player mistakes hurt me in BJ if they slow down the game.

My income would be severely degraded if I was unable to play slots. It is a rookie mistake to play the wrong slots at the wrong time. It is a sophomore mistake to avoid all slot play out of some uninformed prejudice.
Gambling is a math contest where the score is tracked in dollars. Try not to get a negative score.

I'm torn between the guy playing a VP progressive while the machine next to him sits empty with a higher progressive. Or the guy betting 1 credit on $5 VP when he could play 5 credits on the $1 VP on the other side....

Not a "mistake" but anyone playing Big 6/8. I deal the game for parties and tell people that it "is the stupidest bet in the casino." I then explain the difference between 1:1 and 7:6. You would be amazed how many people do not understand what that means! Makes me wonder when you will see a BJ layout saying "BLACKJACK PAYS 1 FOR 1!"

Well, blackjack does pay 1 for 1.

If the dealer also has a blackjack.

The one that bothers me (perhaps because you get involuntarily drawn into it) is when you're playing a game like UTH or MS and a guy sits down next to you, buys in, makes a bet and then asks you, "How do you play this game?" Never mind basic strategy. I try to be polite and answer a few basic questions.

"No. We're not playing against each other. We're all playing against the dealer."

"Yes. Your pocket kings are a good thing."

I realize people have to learn a game somehow, but it strikes me that at a casino table with real money isn't the wisest classroom choice. Exceptions can be made for people like the Wizard who seek out field trial games to analyze. Anyways, these days I just tell the dealer to give the guy a rack card and then shut my yap.
Have you tried 22 tonight? I said 22.

I don’t mind it. I had one recent Pai Gow Poker session where I was playing my hand, and essentially the 3 newbies to my right as well. They were friendly, there to have a fun time, and also learn the game. It didn’t take long for them to get the basics down, and they would just check with me occasionally. The dealer/pit boss didn’t seem to care. In similar situations I’ve been scolded in the past to let the dealer set it as house ways.

My friend I go with prefers a fast table so he would agree with you.

Sadly, I think we have all made that mistake at one time or another. Fortunately the machine locks up if dealt a Royal flush.

Hey everyone,

Let's talk about the player mistakes that really get under our skin. For me, it's players who don't follow basic etiquette at the table—like being rude to dealers or other players. It disrupts the fun and camaraderie of the game. What player behaviors bother you the most? Whether it's poor sportsmanship, not knowing the rules, or something else entirely, share your pet peeves and any tips for improving the gaming experience for everyone.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

I don't know. Nikki seems legitimate to me. Players being rude to other Players and Dealers is really bad and makes the atmosphere feel uncomfortable. In fact, a well known Slot and Table Game Uploader who I will not name was abusing the Dealers and making Table Games uncomfortable for everyone else playing with him. And the viewers watching the Dealer get abused when Dealer was just doing his job felt uncomfortable too. Besides, I also posted VERY similar posts to Nikki myself. I think Nikki's legitimate and deserves to be unbanned. 💡

May I say as one of the first critic's of Nathan's posts way back when, that a bot could not imitate what she posts!

LMAO! 🤣😀 I was a mess the first time around. A HUGE chunk of my posts the first time around were written because I wanted to fit in. I even begun talking crap about games I actually LIKE because I thought something like,"I'm not going to fit in at WOV talking about how great The Lottery is, better talk crap about the Lottery. One of my biggest regrets from the first time around was talking crap about games I like in an effort to fit in at WOV. 😵‍💫🥴🥶

I remind people we have seen photos of Nathan and she has talked on the phone to the Wizard, who drilled her with questions that no imposter would be likely to be able to answer. So, we have more proof of her reality than we do of many other forum members.

If you want to be a Robot, you'd be better off being a Cyborg than an Android. An Android Robot basically just dies what its told, but a Cyborg has much more actually free will. 🤔💡

That’s a cool distinction! So, in your view, the appeal of being a Cyborg lies in retaining some human aspects and autonomy, right? It sounds like the best of both worlds: having advanced capabilities with the freedom to make your own choices. What kind of enhancements or abilities would you find most beneficial if you were a Cyborg? :DDD

Hey everyone,

Let's talk about the player mistakes that really get under our skin. For me, it's players who don't follow basic etiquette at the table—like being rude to dealers or other players. It disrupts the fun and camaraderie of the game. What player behaviors bother you the most? Whether it's poor sportsmanship, not knowing the rules, or something else entirely, share your pet peeves and any tips for improving the gaming experience for everyone.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

I don't know. Nikki seems legitimate to me. Players being rude to other Players and Dealers is really bad and makes the atmosphere feel uncomfortable. In fact, a well known Slot and Table Game Uploader who I will not name was abusing the Dealers and making Table Games uncomfortable for everyone else playing with him. And the viewers watching the Dealer get abused when Dealer was just doing his job felt uncomfortable too. Besides, I also posted VERY similar posts to Nikki myself. I think Nikki's legitimate and deserves to be unbanned. 💡

I disagree with your reasoning.

While it may be a distinction without a difference, I still find it useful to so distinguish.
May the cards fall in your favor.

Can we get back to the original topic about what player mistake bothers you most. Maybe split the thread to discuss whether Nikki is real or not if people want to further discuss it.

A Player mistake that bothers me was something that I did. I LOST on a Roulette Game when 3 came up end I hadn't covered it. I usually cover 3 but I failed to do so in that spin. 3 came up and I was CHEERING thinking I WON, my cheering QUICKLY stopped as soon as I realized I forgot to include 3 and I had LOST. 😳😵‍💫 I said out loud,"I LOST. I shouldn't have been CHEERING. 😵‍💫😳

You haven't played Blackjack since COVID? COVID officially ended last year in 2023 so that means you haven't played Blackjack in at least a year. 🤔💡 What gambling games do you currently play? 😀💡🤔

What concerns me the most is when casino players don't fully understand the real risks and thrill of gambling. This can lead to significant financial losses and issues with controlling their gambling habits. I’ve seen many cases where players continue to gamble even after their finances have been negatively impacted, which can have serious consequences for their lives. It's crucial for people to be aware of these risks and to view gambling as entertainment rather than a way to make money.

As a former problem Gambler, I can tell you it is IMPOSSIBLE to see the consequences or negative effects of gambling when you are playing. The dopamine rush alone blinds you to the outside world and EVERY bet could be "THE ONE!"

So you will never reach a compulsive Gambler and make them understand with Words. They have to hit Rock Bottom, like I almost did, until they realize the FULL impact of their actions.
