Hallo Ken, tolle Seite. UBT rockt auch. Schön zu sehen, dass unser Lieblingsspiel zur besten Sendezeit kommt. Die ganze Action, die ganze Aufregung, alles an einem Ort! Bleib glücklich!
I am scheduled for a hearing with Mississippi Gaming where because Island View in a 3 card poker tournament wild card for the finals did not check the ID for the one who claimed to be the person called. A participant even noticed the person looked suspicious and told the tournament director to check the ID but was ignored. After the wild card person wins 2nd place he admits he is not the person called and the real wild card person was standing behind the player during the finals and admits he is the person. Obviously the person was disqualified but the tournament manager has no clue on what to do and asks the other 6 players. I told him we should replay the finals with the correct players. His response was “I am not going to let adamantlyperson does not
…to make a long story short are the Mississippi Gaming Commission hearing decisions published anywhere publicly or is this Stacy Gall decision just word of mouth?
This is what Harrah’s New Orleans did to me and they will do the same to you as well…
My name is Louis Smith and I live about 100 mile north of New Orleans, in a city called Hattiesburg, MS. I’m a PLATINUM Card Holder and my brother is a GOLD card Holder. We both booked a room on Harrash’s New Orleans for a Sat night stary in July 2008 using both of you players cards. If I were to use just my Platinum card I would have paid $129 for the room and by using a guest players card the room would be comp at no cost. My brother and I book a room using both of you players cards two week before arriveing into New Orleans. Harrah’s even emailed me comfermations the the room reservation would be comp at no cost.
Well, when my brother and I arrived by train Sat morning we check into the room at the front desk and later got a phone call from VIP services. A Harrah’s Guest Service Agent told me that all of my Room Reservation that were book using my brothers players card would be cancel. I told the Agent to the reservation was booked online and there was a place to add another guest and their players card and the room rate charnged. She tried to make like my brother did even come with me. What a bunch of crack heads. My broher is in the same room with me and sign into the room with me. They went as far as getting the front desk to check our bags in our room. Which is really against the law. Okay, they cancel all my reservation that I make though Dec and plus charged my visa $115 deposit on some of the room reservations.
When I got back to Hattiesburg I call Jim the GM of Harrahs Casino in New Orleans and told him to check into it. He is rude to me on the phone and said that I should go back to Mississippi and play at the Grand Casino. He also told me that I’ve already used up all my comp for New Orleans. So why did the online Reservations let me book with using my brother as a guest. If they dont want people to add another guest then they should take that feature off their website.
The GM at the Harrahs Casino in New Orleans was a Jerk and would do nothing to help me. He even told me that the Slot Tournment that was book months ago would even be taken away from me. Now, that takes the cake. These people DO NOT give a cracks ass about their guest. I’ve alway gave high raves on this casino but not anymore after being treated like I’m a dirt under their feet. I’ve spent lot of money at this casino and have never win one red cent!!! I will never spend another dime at this casino and will find another casino that will treat me better.
Beware of Harrah’s Entertainment they are not all they are cracked up to be!!!!
Hey, ich liebe diese Seite. Sehr informativ! Ich bin allerdings ein recht neuer Besucher. Ich war neugierig, wie du in der World Series of Blackjack abgeschnitten hast?
Card counting can get very advanced, especially when you start to side count the aces. But just by following basic blackjack strategy and adding the simple techniques of counting cards you can bring your advantage way up.
Similar situation in the United Kingdom, had a grosvenor weekend booked with ten friends, the tourney included a room and en suite facilities including a breakfast and bar area all laid on.
Knocked out of a tournament and went on to find serious problems as our package was reduced, saying that we needed to reach the latter stages of the pay offs to qualify.
Found this out just after we were elimated, bags in hand and 300 miles from home.
I feel for anyone who may feel the pinch from the big guys at some point in the casino industry.
Just wanted to stop in and say that this is such a useful tool. I’ve used it numerous times to try and tweak the systems I use. It would never be possible without this site and qfit’s site.
Hi mate!
I love love your Blackjack Basic Strategy Engine chart and I’m going to use it on my next trip to the casinos!!!! Great work you have going on here ! Thumbs up! Why didn’t I “stumbled” on your blog sooner!!!? Keep writing mate, don’t stop!
Dear Ken
This is interesting information. I started playing our favorite game back in 2000 and have developed a strategy that allows me to win about 80% of my sessions. I am NOT card counting. I am using a 5 tier sequence and bet ranging strategy that works very well with 6 and 8 deck shoes, CSM, random number generators such as used on the internet. I will avoid single and double deck tables like the plague.
Hi Haiko…your comment interested me as I found keeping the count and adjusting accordingly very difficult when you don’t play that often. I am playing basic strategy six deck and would be interested in knowing about your 5 tier sequence and bet ranging strategy. I currently ramp up my bets when winning and drop back to a basic unit on a loss or ramp down depending on how well I am doing. It would be appreciated if you would share your strategy so I may consider a more manageable playing and betting arrangement. Thank you.
Hello, I have been studying card counting and basic strategy for 6 months. I have read the books that are recommended and practiced every day for about an hour or so. After recently reading a few posts online,pros have been saying that card counting is no longer what it used to be and that it’s nearly impossible to maintain a healthy living off of the game let alone making it worth your time playing. Is this all true? Should I even continue thinking of card counting as a part time job on the weekends to make some money?
It is certainly true that game conditions are not as good as they were ten years ago, but there is another factor that I think offsets that negative. Table games are spreading to new jurisdictions at a faster pace than I have ever seen.
For players who are willing to travel, there are so many new venues to play that I think this is something of a golden age for the game. If you get away from the well-worn games in Vegas, there are tons of fantastic opportunities at small properties all over the country. If your target bet size is anything up to a low spread in black chips, there are lots of places to get a decent game.
For a weekend warrior, this may not be much help. If your local games deteriorate, you may not have the flexibility to travel far afield in search of better conditions. But before you give up on the profitability of the casinos nearest you, make sure you look with an open mind at all the opportunities there. Look at other games, and look at promotions.
Ich bin ein Tischspielhändler. Das Casino, in dem ich arbeite, hat RFID-Sensoren in den Tischen. Auf dem Tisch befindet sich ein kleiner weißer Knopf, den der Croupier drücken muss, wenn er oder sie die Wetten abschließt. Wenn der Knopf gedrückt wird, wird der Einsatz aufgezeichnet. Nun, das ist die Theorie dahinter. Solange ich in diesem Kasino arbeite, ist das System offline. Es ist interessant, neue Croupiers zu sehen, die immer noch die Knöpfe drücken, wie es ihnen beigebracht wurde.
Interessant! Vielleicht will die Geschäftsführung, dass die Händler den Knopf drücken, obwohl das System offline ist. Das ist so, als hätte man einen Videokameraglobus, auch wenn keine echte Kamera drin ist 🙂 .
CBS?
Kann ich den Film außerhalb der USA sehen?

Glad I didn’t get involved in that tournment I had to work that weekend.

That’s great! Card counting is pretty easy, but this is still a cool and useful calculator for blackjack. Nice work!
