Quote: bj4funGreat trip (and report) - glad to see you out of "retirement".
Thanks :) it felt good to get back into the swing of things
At least with BJ you aren't ordered by a judge or court rule to play without a reasonable chance of compensation.

I actually thought of that :) But somehow I do not think it would work out in the long term
Quote: mdsHey, by any chance did you get your Avg, hours played, Theo and how much was comped? Great report glad you left a winner and had fun with some Family. Congrats!
Oh, and also... It doesn't sound like it, but did you check out the El Cortez at all?
Quote: ArchonyGreat TR, thanks for posting!
Isn't Jordan a george?
According to Charles Barkley, not at all.

I didn't but I am sure I could - I will look into it.
The Aria was pursuant to an offer so my host there really had nothing to do (the food/bev credit and room were all part of the offer)

I did wander down there and take a walk around, but I did not play. It was much nicer than I thought it would be.

Oh, you noticed that too.

Positive variance makes the argumentative side look much weaker.
Good run Ace, keep it going next trip!
Quote: aceofspadesOh, you noticed that too.
What it does is, it makes you over confident
for the next trip where you drop $17K in the
first afternoon. If you stop now and never
play again, you will be doing good. We all
know what's in store if you don't. It's as
inevitable as the sun rising. Look at Kewlj,
he does it for a living and he is barely ahead
for the year in BJ. Goes with the territory.

We're conspicuously unaware of the exact outcome of the trip. Went from up a specific amount to 2 days of silence to just "up". I choose to assume that means that a $1 profit was attained:-)

I've stated numerous times herein that I was up a "dime" and that the trip ended plus "10"
Please re-read.
Being up or down is meaningless SC or not, any legitimate speed count detractor knows that.Quote: MrVSo, what say the speed count detractors about this trip, eh?
People have always given AOS a hard time about SC, win or lose( same thing with system players).
Everything got a bit stale after the wet blankets were thrown on from the last big AOS thread when he quit the forum. No one wants to say something and be the one to upset AOS (hes a likable guy)and have a repeat of last time. I realize he took a WOV break for a different reason, However, why take a chance?
I think the detractors really only wanted him to have a better chance to win more or lose less.
Most Members realize, if after his last trip he was still unwilling to advance his count, he probably won't, no matter what they say or the situation.
Just letting everyone know where I stand. And I might add, GO ACE GO !
