AC vs. Vegas
I know that in Atlantic City, where I play for the most part, they hardly bat an eyelash if you are playing a $25-$50 min table flat betting minimums and then at some point jump to $200-$500 bets...heck, I do it all the time. I have only played in Vegas a few times(meaning"2") and after reading all I had read of the various horror stories of maltreatment of players, I played differently there, being cautious and bouncing around, making more gradual spreads than I would make in AC, waiting until I had a great count and then announce,"Well, I'm worn down and tired and ready to go relax in a hotel room, so I'm going to toss a few fatter bets out, win or lose and call it a day!", do so...and leave. That was year before last; I'm headed back out there in March so I intend on gathering as much intelligence as possible to avoid any problems of any kind.
The people that play in Vegas on a regular basis (that have posted commentary on my questions pertaining to this subject on here) have said that it's got a lot more to do with WHERE you play at there as far as not being scrutinized or noticed in some unfavorable way and that perhaps some of my fears were unwarranted.
I fulling intend on researching this further and knowing all I can to avoid any problems and maybe I will do some of the same "hit and run" tactic that I did there previously. Atlantic City is very familiar to me and I am comfortable in knowing just what I can get away with and where, whereas in Vegas I am "a stranger in a strange land" and certainly not in any comfort zone about the place after reading some of the stuff I have read. This might have cost me money as far as not making as much my last trip there but better to turn a smaller profit and not get beat up, robbed and imprisoned because you happened to piss off the casino by winning some of their money! Of course, reading farther along into this behavior on the part of casinos in Vegas you run across where people have filed lawsuits and things against them and won, so the procedure could now be limited to asking you to leave but in any case I only wish to avoid any problems and issues.
