Nice pics, Eliot!
Although, I must add, Slots-a-Fun has some very nice glossy ones of me in full pirate wear.
Bastards!
I'm touring Nevada currently, deciding whether I should continue scrapping it out, or take a brief sojurn to Japan.
(Haven't been laid in over two months...'nuff said!)
I've tightend my play considerably. I will only play single deck, heads up, min 1-10 spread. If another player joins, exiting strategies compensate.
Oddly, I received more back offs parlaying wins (Revere's strategy) than playing textbook Kelly. I suspect it's the novelty of the approach that amuses and delights the pit critters. Or something...

Dealer: "You have got to have the most sporadic betting of anyone I've ever dealt to."
Pit boss: "It's Canadian betting, very effective."
(I swear, I'm not making this up.)

I find myself in Reno currently, at some strange bar called "The Stock Exchange". Internet connection is slow, but the place is very noisy. Backed off at the Sundowner earlier today, but I'll give her a whirl again in a few hours. Probably one of the better games downtown.
I hope all is well in the community, and insofar as brutal losses are concerned. Do not, I repeat, do not become disenchanted by a 140 unit loss.
I think I'm pushing 10x that.
But, then again, I'm Syph...and the gods delight in torturng me.
Cheerio!
Syph
(ps Just finished up a 102 hour, 7 day BJ vision quest in X. Didn't receive the vision, did get the money! 1-15 spread, SD, no heat, no cover. Truely liberating.)
(pps Now I must dance.)
