Race and return time

Just got caught with hand in cookie jar.

While thinking about how long I should wait before returning to this particular casino I realized that the pit guy and dealer were both not of my race or native language. So I looked for some research that would suggest facial recognition(human, not electronic) is less accurate cross-racially. And, not at all to my suprize, I found very strong evidence of this.

I would like to hear what some of you have to say. Is there any reason that I shouldn't use this information in considering when I should return to this place?

tough call

I would say that race might work in your favor because to them all of you people" probably look the same.

The language wouldn't happen to be eubonics would it ?

Nope

Not ebonics.

PC and dealer were from different places. Vegas is like that though. I ordinarily don't have to worry about this in Vegas by virtue of how often I get out there. But my next trip will be very soon and this is a standard haunt. Volunteered to get bumped on leg between Reno and Vegas and got a voucher. So next trip's airfare is free.

Be sure..

to buy CBJN before you go. You will be there a short time and won't want to be scouting games while your there.

This trip was cool. I got to play poker two tables away from Chris "Jesus" Fergueson and three away from Eric Sidel. Also, there was a guy playing poker with his foot. So I get to impress my friend with that story (lol).

return time

No clue about the race thing...

Unless it's a very small store, I'd go ahead and play on the other shifts, but I'd wait at least three months (preferably six) before playing on the shift you were backed off on.

Didn't let it get

to a backoff. I was shuffled up on.

Single Deck. Heads up. After 20 mins play.

I raised bet after first round was dealt. PC whispers in Dealers ear and she shuffles(after only first round). PC is on phone staring at me as I color up.
