How long do you usually stay at a casino before moving on?

How many days do you usually spend at a casino before heading home, or moving on to a new casino? One, two, three days? Also, how much table time per day do you usually get in?

I'm talking about Midwest area, so i'm not talking about areas where you can just leave and walk across the street to another casino - like Vegas or AC.

So to speak, what's the sweet spot so as to not overstay your welcome?

If I stay at a place for more than I day, I often see the same ploppies there day after day, so nothing too unusual about that.

Every casino is different in their tolerance level. Some will never give you the boot. Some will boot you as soon as a green chip hits the felt or you're up $100 (slight exaggeration possibly). Some will boot you for winning too much against a CSM. :eek:

I have gambled in some of the best casinos, and in some of the sleaziest toilets in Nevada, and elsewhere. I have first-hand knowledge that this is NOT an exaggeration.

I once had a BP barred at the Treasure Island for winning about 10k on a CSM.
We were flat-betting; playing a SP21 game against Gladys (retired for several years now). The shift boss came into the pit, & after a discussion with the PB (right next to me; I heard every word) they decided that the guy was COUNTING! At a CSM! FLAT BETTING! You cannot imagine how close I came to blowing MY cover, trying to keep from laughing in these stupid idiots faces!

Really? A CSM?.... No!!!!! :laugh:
Never thought that either. Yesterday at a casino that I was at I observed a person getting a real good stare down. It was at a CSM he was betting tale max which was $500. He had about $10,000 piled up in front of him all purple. He asked if he could have the limited raised to a $1,000 they told him no. The place was in the Midwest so figure that one out. It just goes to show you how stupid the casinos are.

Last night at Greek Town. I want to say it was a 6 to 5 BJ but I can't remember as there were 2 6 to 5 tables with CSM and one 3 to 2 with a CSM.

In the midwest, i stop playing only to eat lunch or dinner, or when i get tired.

One time in the midwest they casually shuffled on me but i kept playing and they condtinued to deal normally afterward.

Thats the most heat i ever got.

Southern Michigan seems to be getting very protective of their CSM games. I guess they must have figured out what a few of us have known for quite some time now: That these machines are highly exploitable, much more so than a shoe game. It probably won't be long now before they start pulling them out and replacing them with ASMs or hand shuffled games. That's too bad. :cry: It was fun while it lasted.
