I'll keep that in mind next time I'm at the casino. I sure am not about to take any pictures of the inside of my Surveillance room, that's for sure :)
Quote: AxelWolfPic's or it didn't happen.
So we have to take a pic to prove we were
there? So you'll be convinced?
Yeah, that's gonna happen. lol

Got a pic to prove it? Axel thinks
he's the only one that goes to
casinos on a regular basis, he
wants proof we really go too.. lol

Not from that day. Someone should've warned me ahead of time. No 4 to a royal holds so no pics. And made close to $70 off the $80 fp.

Truthfully, I don't remember a lot of pics from you.
Truthfully, I don't remember a lot of pics from Axel either ;-)
And nothin' happened. In the place where I wasn't.

Total Active Members is a misnomer. It's just how many members have made at least 1 post.

Gas is $1.73 here.

This new work schedule is really cutting into my play. (Not the worst thing in the world, but it's harder to go pick up my free money.)
I don't think I ever have posted one.Quote: TwoFeathersATLTruthfully, I don't remember a lot of pics from you.

Honestly I don't know how to post pictures. I have an idea how but it's something I purposely didn't want to learn(yet another distraction I don't really need). I usually forget to take them, but trust me I have plenty.
I believe BBB posted some pre grand opening SLS pictures of mine with permission from my account(so don't dig up an old picture that was posted and call me a liar )
I was never a big fan of having my picture taken(casino or not) or taking pictures, something I mildly regret nowadays, but still it's always the last thing on my mind.
With every jackpot there's always a risk while playing anything +EV. Usually you just want to get your money, move on or keep playing. I certainly don't want to publicly post pictures and have other AP's wondering why I was at X location playing X game . Perhaps I can find some irrelevant gambling pictures and figure out how to post them.
Back before smart phones were popular the casinos would usually ask to take your picture when you hit something,. Sometimes force you, especially if it was a drawing, contest or promotion. The next thing you know you would see you're face in their publication or on the wall somewhere. Something most guys avoided like the plague for obvious reasons.
Oh then you get broke machine hustlers congratulating you after seeing that picture, along with a 20 minute hard luck story, followed by, "And if you could just help me out a little." Last thing you need is guy's like that hanging out around you, sweating your action and bringing down heat (you knew dam well they probably had just been ran out of of that casino a few weeks prior.)
Some guys were ok, even very entertaining, interesting and underneath some were very intelligent, but they be crazy or psychotic. Sometimes I would give them a "loan", rooms or comps. At times they even had good information.
I have texted other members pictures plenty of times and played with others from here in the casino many times.
Regarding some other long time members, no one has ever even seen them or pictures from them.
2F If you would like to see some casino/gambling pictures you're welcome to send me your number via PM and I'll be happy to text them, I'll even toss in some picture of some hotties I've run into in Vegas.

Lol.
If you know/knew what you were doing you wouldn't be saying that. Many happy campers from Bovada over the years alone.
I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is if you make it worth the time.
Perhaps you just like taking jabs at the Wizard.

Right, closer to 100 probably post ~regularly, so 32 votes (now 39) isn't terrible. I voted. Past the two week mark currently.

No you're not, you just can't stand when
somebody knows something about
casino play that you don't.
So you try and discredit them hoping
you'll feel better.
How's that working.

Buzz, that you?
You said 'no picture, didn't happen', you've said that a number of times (usually in correct context ;-)
I just mentioned that I didn't remember seeing a lot of your pics, was a funny....
You haven't seen any of mine either, maybe, I hope ;-)
When I run into a guy in a very worn 18th century top hat and tails, I'll say hello..

When did I ask about EvenBob's specific visits? I asked about all members visits. You chose to respond to the poll and then provided unrequested specifics that gave out more than requested specifics in regards to the poll. I am obsessed/curious with how often my visits to a casino compare to other gamblers. Am I the average gambler? That is all I was wondering......

How's that working.
But what you said is NOT true there are many guys doing legitimate AP stuff I don't know about and they won't tell(bastards). Especially on table games. There's some extremely talented AP table games players, some I know, some I haven't ever seen. There's always someone(lots) who are more successful. I usually respect most other real AP's big or small.
I'm definitely impressed with anyone that can find and successfully clock or find a biased roulette wheel and profit from it(give me a call, ill be you're roulette b**ch).
I'm impressed with guys who can shuffle track good.
I'm impressed with guy's who are motivated spending weeks scouting for just one single table game opportunity.
There are plays going on all over the world, even in Vegas, I know it's almost impossible to know about many of them and even more impossible to be everywhere and do everything, new stuff comes up all the time. I try to be diverse as possible. It's Impossible to know and learn everything but I'm always open to anything learning anything LEGITIMATE. People around me will confirm that.
I'm always happy to hear when someone found and did something, because that just confirms AP is going strong and it's continuously profitable.
As far as betting systems/"methods go you do realize that 99% of anyone reasonably sane with any gaming knowledge do not believe it.
It's impossible you or anyone has a what we call a betting system that actually works. No one has ever been able to prove a betting system can beat a -EV game. Many People, even people from dumb to extremely intelligent have tried to prove it's possible yet everyone has failed. Explain why YOU are different from all others?
If you're getting lucky I'm happy for you, unlike people Sally, I like winners, yes even you. In reality It's in my best interest for people to employ crazy betting systems, it keeps the casinos in business.
Give it up already. I already felt bad enough . It was nothing personal (other than having to wipe the drool off my GF's arm, I couldn't find a body guard for her on such short notice (-;.)Quote: muleyvoiceThe last time I was in a casino was in Vegas last year when a certain AP did not show up for a pool match, so after waiting an hour I went to a casino nearby.

There's many times I have had to reschedule something over entertainment. I don't even get to go to the last few meet ups. I should've gave notice or made it a lets see how it plays out thing. Once I make plans I'm usually there on time or early. Sometimes I it takes time to arrange something that fits everyone schedule.
I rarely go play anymore, but we keep talking about it among other things.
Next time, assuming I'm here in Vegas I'll try to make the time. Beer or whatever you're having is on me.
There are a couple of casinos within reasonable driving distance, but I'm too much of a "grampa driver" (one reason I prefer the buses to renting a car when in Vegas) to bother with the lengthy stretches of one lane in each direction without a divider between them roads they both have.

To play the games that are offered...... Why go to a casino if not to gamble?
Quote: mason2386To play the games that are offered...... Why go to a casino if not to gamble?
To many on here, going to the casino is work.
If you're an AP and have a specific +EV play lined up, it's work. It's not gambling; it's a sure thing as long as you don't get shut down before you realize your profits. Or you're scouting for plays. Or you're building a profile.
If you're dealing or otherwise working there, you're also not gambling.
And if you're in the industry as a designer or distributor or evaluator, you could easily be there not to gamble, but to observe or work a field test or for research.
I'd guess a fair amount of the people on here, maybe even a majority, are in casinos for reasons other than gambling quite often.

If you go to the same casinos a lot,
you see the same pit and dealers
and it feels they are your co-workers.
You know their names, you talk like
you do to people you work with.

time' and I always think, what an
odd thing to say.
