Give AoS my regards, and tell him I hope he will post here again. I find his trip reports entertaining and insightful. I hope variance swings back his way this time

Too funny!.........now EvenBob is posting for AoS?
I hope that combo wins.
If it does, I'm gonna have EvenBob post my next trip report!

I've been divorced once or twice, never my idea.
Didn't cost a bunch of money ( relative to lots of other, less worthy, investments and/or behaviors )
Just cost a bunch of my soul.
If you marry, you should try to stay there.
If you fail you should be able to look in the mirror and say "I tried hard".
Tomorrow is another day, I hope we ALL get there.

I change my mind.
I'm OK with Corps which pick and choose clienteles. Both insurance companies and casinos have the right to pick and choose customers. They may keep profitable ones and kicked out the rest. But, I'm not OK with a casino supervisor who says counting cards... is like stealing food from a buffet (a foodlifting offense), or video-taping a movie in a cinema (a piracy offense).

What's changed with the game? Not even playing basic strategy, even after a hundred or so hands is running good in my opinion. Down a few hundred units for the year with almost every weekend play. Sounds about right to me.
Not trying to be mean. What else do you expect to happen?
Most ploppy gamblers budget their losses, enjoy the comps, and try to have a good time with their entertainment dollar.
If it's no longer fun, stop. If you can't, get help.

Ace has been in a losing streak, especially true with a Latino relief dealer. Of the 20 hands I saw, he was beaten 15 hands, pushed 1, and won 4. I kid you not.

I don't get what this accomplishes. Ace can still be stalked and trolled just as before, and is probably still giving too much info.

This is his way of not reading what people write?

I like the ace of spade but I think he needs to stop playing blackjack as it is obvious that he no longer derives any enjoyment from it. And a trip report via the evenbob-spike as proxy is just too damned weird! It's like the freakin Twilight Zone or somethin', hey hey.
