Las Vegas GF Chat Room

This is false information, by a guy who I suspect just doesn't have a clue because he is not, nor has never been an advantage player or winning player. The casino industry monitors not only gambling related forums, but different social media platforms attempting to identify advantage players. This isn't speculation. This is fact! Different forum owners and administrators that are able to know who there members are, have stated so.

At WoV, and other forums there are some casino employees that are very open that they are casino employees. Dan Druff knows his membership as well as any forum owner I have seen and he flat out tells you there are casino industry people that monitor, probably not participate much, but lurk and monitor his forum. Before BJ21 was sold and was still run by Stanford Wong, there was a green chip and before that even higher blackchip membership, which were by subscription, and Wong made it known that a number of casino employees paid that fee and were members.

Now that doesn't mean that every casino employs people that do nothing but read these forums, although it wouldn't surprise me if the bigger chains had someone. There are casino employees that are cross-over AP's so they read. I have a friend in that situation. There are also some casino employees that read unoffically, hoping to learn something that can help them at their job. Bust an AP, feather in their cap. And the biggest danger is the database companies. They all employ people that do nothing but read forums and social media. THAT is their business.

 

I'm just curious. Has your bullshit meter now turned off in your head? I hope it has.

Only thing I haven't provided are my hotel reservation confirmation #'s to prove that I've stayed in casino hotels for over 2 years straight and I can still do that and that will boost my number of posts which then I can start PM folks after 300 posts.

What do I have to gain by lying on a totally anonymous board? I don't need approval from anyone here. I'm not bragging that I'm winning big in casinos since I'm not and I never said I was. I'm breaking even or a little bit up in the last 2 years. My sports betting on the other hand has been very good, but I don't do that for the whole year. I bet on football and tail some hot posters on basketball but not too much as not too many cappers go on a heater with basketball from what I can tell, but never bet on baseball even though I should have as I've seen some posters go on a streak that's pretty incredible. It's almost like betting on a trend in baccarat but spread out over days instead of minutes.

Anyway, I'm just here to see if I can learn something new so I could win more in casinos since I'm here all the time. I'm fully booked for the next 2 months and possibly more if I continue to get the comped rooms.

I don't normally play baccarat, but I started to because of what I learned from here and my record is perfect whatever-0, i.e. no loss yet in any of the sessions I have played so far in the last couple of months. It's not a lot but at least 7 sessions, so that's less than once a week.

Once I start playing more frequently, I'm sure I will lose but hopefully MM will come into play to prevent me from losing big.

But now, it looks like I can possibly learn something new from you if you are willing, so I guess I just have wait and see if you would.

If not, then that's okay too. Thanks.

 

OK ALAN. This is Alan Mendelson voodoo gambling nonsense.

If you, or anyone for that matter, is going to repeat this absurd voodoo, degenerate gambler type crap, there really should be some sort of disclaimed or notification of VOODOO in big bold letters.

 

I feel for you LG, you actually let the UNKewl one have your real name? He's going to use it against you at some point when he turns against you, which sounds like he already has. So will that rat MrV. These unstable types are the ones in which you chose to confide. Bad choices. Bad.

 

Apparently, me posting the free bet coupons with my name and player # hasn't affected my room offers yet. It might in the future, but it wouldn't matter to me anyway.

The point is, I'm not worried if I don't get to play the casino games for the rest of my life as I had my fill for 38 years. I enjoyed the perks I got, some of the thrilling wins, and horribly heartbreaking losses, but I don't need them anymore.

I checked what other comped room offers I have for the other MGM properties and I have a pretty good one at MGM Springfield for any 3 nights, but it's too far for me to travel. I had any 4 days free at MGM National Harbor, so I took the kids to go visit all of the museums in DC. I didn't play even a minute while there and my rating there went down a bit but not much as I can still get 3 nights there; not just some weekend nights.

 

As simple as I can make it: If a player is playing with an advantage, he wants to keep playing, to get as many trial as he can, today, tomorrow, next week, because the overall trajectory of his results will by upward. There may be variance which cause an uneven trajectory, with ups and downs, like the stock market, but the overall trajectory will be up.

Now a player who is not playing with an advantage and subject to the house edge eating into every single wager, hell yeah, he should quit when ahead, after a winning session. He should quit after a losing session. He should just quit and the sooner, the better, because his overall trajectory will be down, or heading south the longer he plays.

 

Below are my comped room offers from MGM National Harbor.

There is a reason why I'm posting these and I will explain if necessary later.

 

LG, it was a bad choice to post those vouchers with your name on them. It is not only the casinos you have to worry about. I hope it doesn't hurt you. I think you may get away with it.

Don't listen to KJ hater Mdawg. He was kicked off another forum this morning, so we have him here trolling more for the next week.

The fact is AP's are a community within themselves. Especially, in Las Vegas where there are many. I know the names of many of my fellow AP's, as they do mine. And that is without any meeting or introduction which I try to avoid.

Now Mdawg is not an AP. He is as far away from an AP as can be. He is a losing player that is comped accordingly, maybe a little better than he should be because he is a losing player. Unlike AP's who try hard to hide our identity for obvious reasons, Mdawg hides his identity for a completely different reason.

He isn't hiding from the casinos, who by his own admission, know who he is, he is hiding from the members of the forums he posts at. He is so afraid that people will be able to look for themselves and see who he really is and that his casino play results doesn't match his fantasy story.

 

Actually, I do know it's not something that can be explained in a matter of minutes; thus my offer to him to provide a hotel room and meals to have more time to go over it if he is willing. But, I don't know where he lives, so that's another story.

You declined and I'm okay with that as I can learn about the card counting on my own and with some research on the internet. With you, I mainly wanted to see how you play the game just out of curiosity and nothing more. Maybe I can find something on YouTube. Who knows.

 

The day you listen to anything the UNKewl one has to say, about anything, will be the day you rue!

The guy has not established anything about himself, other than that he lies.

As Mission146 has said, between me and the UNKewl one:
In fairness to MDawg, he has definitely proven more about himself than I understand you to have done.

monet on the UNKewl one: Nothing you post is 100% true.
From faking your own death to using multiple sockpuppets.
Like Coach said... you are constantly lying to the forums and you have admitted to it time and time again.

Anyway, I will sign off until tonight because I have real work to do. And, unlike the UNKewl one who says he is "done" and then returns just a few minutes later, I am capable of keeping to a simple resolve.

 

You are probably right, but I didn't feel like editing photos to cover up things. Besides, you knew my name, so it proves I did what I said I was going to do, i.e. go to Borgata to play. The time stamps on the coupons also shows the time I said I was going to go.

If I was a winning player like you, then I'm sure I'd be worried about being noticed by the casinos. To the casinos in AC, I'm just an average recreational player so they will leave me alone; at least until I start winning like Punkcity if that ever happens. LOL

I mean to win 700K in 6 months? That is just incredible. If I start doing that, I'm sure they will ban me in the first month.

Basically, I'm just telling you there is nothing I'm posting here that are lies.

If you feel there is no way I'm breaking even or winning a bit over the last 2+ years, that's okay. I'm not going to try to prove otherwise. It would be hard to prove it anyway unless I recorded all my play sessions.

On the floor I'm staying, there is a wall print that said Beyonce had her every waking moments recorded.

I will see if I can upload that.

 

Ok, I am telling you this for your own good, not because I am trying to stifle any competition. Card counting is a bad choice for what you are doing and wanting to do. Especially in Atlantic City.

As I told you privately, I was done in Atlantic City after 5 years play. It really was even worse that that. My first 3 years were very low limit play so they didn't care much at all. But as soon as I moved up in stakes to just $25 tables spreading to just a couple hundred dollars, I got about 2 years before I was done...couldn't play. As soon as I sat down, they pulled out a Max bet $50 card that applied only to me.

I moved to Las Vegas, so I would have a bigger rotation of casinos and blackjack games to play, spreading out my play so as not to be seen too much or be a burden to any pit folks. And short sessions. A plan devised exclusively for Las Vegas and the many casinos available.

Now while I have been away from AC for 13 years now, I network with people that still play and they tell me it has only gotten worse, even more sweatier. I just don't think you will survive long card counting there.

 

Mdawg asks "is there anyone on these forums more despised than KewlJ?"

From the looks of your 1/2 star rating of your long running fantasy thread.....YES...YOU.

 

This is the first I've gotten a room on the top floor at Hard Rock and this floor has a bunch of suites.

I was getting extra towels from a cleaning lady and one suite's door was propped open. It has a living that's twice the size of my room.

 

I don't know if I would want someone to video tape me all my life. What is she even going to do with it? I suppose she could make a movie out of it or something when her singing career is over.

 

Thanks for the advice.

I wouldn't even consider doing it until I retire which could be not for another 10 years, but I might mess with it until then.

Besides, I have 4 casinos around where I live without having to drive to AC, PARX, Live!, Rivers, and Harrah's Chester.

Also, I just realized that I got the Philadelphia casino names mixed up. Sugar House became Rivers and Live! is the new one. For some reason, I thought Live! used to be Sugar House and there was a new one with a different name, but Live! is the new one.

Sugar House used to be my favorite casino for sports betting as I never lost with any of the bets I made there; albeit only about 5 and all over 3K+ bets with one payout that paid 15K+ which I ended up hedging listening to my wife and that was a big mistake giving up over 7K in extra winnings. I had multiple options to hedge with and I took the middle instead of the one I really wanted, which would have actually netted even more to a 22K winning as the last pending game middled, i.e. I would have won both the original parlay and the hedge bet. I will never forget that since It was a difference of winning additional 15K than what I ended up winning and that's a lot of dough.

PARX is in my backyard but I drove 20 minutes longer to a different casino whenever I wanted to make a decent size bets for that reason, i.e. I just fared better betting at Sugar House than PARX.

Superstition? Absolutely.

 

LG, I have a suggestion.

Give up notions of AP: gamble recreationally, for fun, and only bet what you can afford to lose.

Instead, become skilled at investing your money.

Gamble in the world's biggest "casinos."

In the real world, the real men make real money in the markets.

Casino play pales in comparison.

Heck, if you need "action" then look into day trading.

I made my money working and investing, not in the casinos.

Ka-ching!

 

Yeah, I was confused when you started calling Sugarhouse, LIVE. I thought maybe the name had changed that I wasn't aware of. LIVE is the new casino down by the stadiums, which I haven't been to yet. Hopefully next trip. I hear it is really not very big.

Sugarhouse opened the year after I relocated to Las Vegas. Actually, that first year, I was back and forth between Philly and Vegas a lot as I was still on the lease of the apartment, I shared in Phila. I remember I spend most of the summer that first year back in Philly, wanting to escape the desert heat. And I think that is when Sugarhouse opened, during that summer. It was in a bad neighborhood, lower end of an area called Fishtown, located right on the river. At that time Fishtown was politely called a working class neighborhood. To me Ghetto was more appropriate. Maybe not North Philly Ghetto, but ghetto. I think it may be a little better now. A couple of the phillies players like Ryan Howard lived in the highrise condos that were built down the block from Sugarhouse. Probably even nicer now, but back then it really wasn't safe, especially at night.

That first Summer, Sugarhouse was pretty good. 2 different pits of table games, with lots of $25 minimum tables. I did pretty well the few times I played there. And they had a shuttle that was a trolley type car that ran between Rittenhouse Square, center city area where I lived, to the casino, so that was convenient. But when fall came, I returned to Vegas for good and have only been back to Sugarhouse a couple times. When I visit Pa every year, Sugarhouse just isn't high on my list.

 

Tou guys got a nut here .

 

That's a sound advice, but investing in the markets never took my fancy for some reason.

All my brothers do it, but that crash in 2007 cost my older brother millions. It happened when he was talking about retiring at only 44 as he had more than enough to retire comfortably. He should have just done it by taking them all out at the time before it crashed. He is still working now and he never talks about investing anymore. He is at the top of the pay grade for the federal government, and he can work as long as he wants to without retiring so may be he hasn't recovered yet of what he lost back in 2007.

My younger brother told me just a week ago how much he lost in the markets and the amount of money he lost, it will probably last me more than 10 years in casinos.

He said he lost 60K in Chinese Uber and he got killed in Bitcoins as he said he is down 30K. That's almost 100K he is down this year; although they could come back in the future. Not sure I could stomach that. What's worse, his wife lost just as much. They keep separate accounts for some reason not like me.
