Re: home game penalty for cussing - what to do?
I normally wouldn't want to post but here goes (and it sounds like, after sorting through everything, OP's friend didn't use said word anyway the past time out):
1) I don't like the time penalty...

Re: AMAZING CHIPS
Not too bad, but I've always liked the thought of one day making my own design and having Chipco make them (since I rather like the Chipco chips, e.g., Luxor/Palms style).

Re: Ed Miller and flush draws

I didn't mind the music from the bar, either... didn't seem to notice it after a while... and I think the only time I did was that break-in for the times when they dance on the bar...

Re: MGM

Re: First time in Vegas
During the week the Aladdin and MGM have some cheap tournaments, with the Aladdin taking the edge because the dealers and staff there are all well above the Vegas norm. These are usually pretty...

Re: Oklahoma rooms near I-40
