Quote: ChumpChangeThere's no EZ Baccarat. Five Treasures, etc. that I've come across yet. One video said there was a vig no matter what you bet for (P or B) on EZ Baccarat, but it didn't say how much.
As for B & M casinos my plan is to beat Bubble Craps, Craps Tables, Spanish 21, and Baccarat. I may drop by a BJ table, and spend some time at a Roulette table. But the table minimums and my weak bankroll have to be considered before I move up levels or games. Table minimums are $1, $3, $15, $25, $50, and $100 for various games. I want to be ready to move up when I can, so I play the home games almost all the time during the plague times.

CC,
Just remember, Vig or no Vig, these are -EV games. Don't be seduced by the glorious trip reports of those who just cannot lose. Why move up in wager values?
Up here on the International Space Station, I'm still on my first session and I have not yet been ahead since I arrived here. Up here we count trip reports from the the day we take off from earth to the day we splash down. So we don't have the benefit to being able to hit and run. Also, incidentally, we don't use chips, because they take up too much Space. We use safety matches. held down by blu-tak.

link to original postIt's unusual to not manage to get ahead at some point in the session, but I really haven't. Are you calling me a liar? Is it because you don't believe we have a casino up here? Well, we have and they allow you to double after any number of cards. $;o)

link to original postFires in a pressurized environment can be rather nasty. Oxygen transport costs are already on the order of 100k purewinmoneys/day. Besides that, you can't just pop to the shops when your blu tak starts to get crunchy.

And we had extra blutak sent up for the Christmas decorations, so we have plenty now the decorations are down.Quote: OnceDearWe use safety matches. held down by blu-tak.

as it wobbles around in the thermosphere [low earth orbit] where we have been for what, 5 decades now? Or is it 6?
sorry, I must be in a bad mood this morning
I can understand your frustration. It has been massively expensive and a long term project. Like any expensive long term project, support for it goes stale as the original proponents die off. Pretty amazing that it is still up here, mostly alone. Would/should the project get off the ground if someone suggested it today?Quote: odiousgambitISS, the symbol of neglect ... neglect of our space program

9 year old blutak is most certainly crunchy by now.
