I thought the same, so also I waited for EB to step into it. And in record time.

The roller coaster continues
sat down earlier down 5500 for the weekend
slowly made the climb to only being down 4500 for the weekend before the "I'm the dealer and therefore I get all the blackjacks and youuuuuuuuu don't neener neener neener" phase started - within a couple of shoes I was down 6k

took a dinner break and upon my return, satiated and ready for battle, I was able to grab 2k back to the good and now stand 4K down for the trip (1k if I don't count the 3k I won last weekend lol)

Forget to post this earlier but a bit of controversy:


Cut card was first card out of shoe on a hand

Dealer kept dealing playing it out
whole table lost of course and we asked why there was no shuffle
Floor supervisor said the "cut card" is merely a guide to let the dealer know they should shuffle soon
So we asked how much latitude a dealer had and she replied - well it is a guide that they have to shuffle - she was not "getting it"

All I have ever seen is them deal the next hand. Until the cut card comes out of the shoe, it is not considered dealt. Can you imagine the screaming there would be if the count was +10 and the dealer decided to not deal another hand?

Actually, I guess there would be no screaming, as that would call attention to a counter.............. Hello ulcers.

enjoyed some Ben&Jerry's and headed back to the pit - had to wait for a Reserved table to open up (meaning for them to make a previously Reserved table available to the gaming public)

had a nice run straight out of the gate and picked up another 900

Trip is -3500 (-500 between last week and this week)

-19 YTD

Just had them at Universal studios a few weeks ago. I ate to much of them.

But what'd you get? Playing blackjack for two weekends, breaking even, and going home with a nice suit is a win. Playing blackjack for two weekends, breaking even, and going home with a travel power adapter kit and an inflatable neck pillow, not so much.

I'm glad you mounted a decent come back from being behind, Ace. I'm still waiting for the trip report where you go up big the first day and never look back! I wish I could join you next month... The extra pictures were cool, and a good idea.

Quote: AxelWolf

NVM Romes TR. He's playing 6/5 job at the bar. Not much to report other than...I played 6/5 jacks and lost my ass.

Axel's got me nailed... My plan was "For every 6 hands I play, I must drink from my drink 5 times. Then, after I get nice and shined up, I can surely beat this 6/5 JoB!"

Quote: bj4fun

Good luck Ace! Love the pics in the report so far. Makes we want to take a trip over to "the SUN" sometime soon.

Romes, love to hear how your trip goes as well.

Trip went well, very well. Of course I had the standard "You must start off $1500 in the hole" but after getting over that hump I ended up cashing out up quite a bit =D.
Playing it correctly means you've already won.
