Casino Arizona Trip Report (Long)

man, is turning the tables on las vegas that good? i picked it up in a second hand bookstore five or six years ago (beofre i was even interested in cards) and gove it to my older brother for christmas as a gag gift (i think he had just won 3300 at blackjack in canada, and his friend who went with him had to tell him his cards at the end of the night he was so drunk)

maybe ill see if he still has it

Uh oh. Maybe this could be the first hint of a 2+2 marriage. (Other than to an overpair.) Will any offspring be Babemeister or Clarkbaby? [img]/images/smile.gif[/img]

its not the 'how to ' book, like wong's or humble/cooper or snyder. but it has some great stuff. alot of intangible stuff on how to deal with casinos. and great stories.


like clarkmeisters post, it basically puts the theory and numbers books down, and just plays. thats what its about. when all said and done, just play the game. and the similarities are there. very inspiring to read.


i like these types of posts, because clarks not asking for opinions on his play, just that ya sit back, and live his adventure with him. very refreshing to say the least.

"1. Everytime I am in California, and now add Arizona to the list, I am struck by just how poorly the Vegas rooms are run."


If you think the Vegas rooms are run poorly, you better steer clear of Atlantic City and Foxwoods. Many of these dealers and floor people could use some retraining and manners. At Foxwoods the poker dealers pool tips with the pit so they just don't give a damn.

Well, I agree about Foxwoods. Ask Bob, the Poker Room Manager at Hollywood to tell you about Foxwoods lack of management skills.


As far as Atlantic City, the hell with management. The players rule there. I have never seen a situation arise at the Taj that the players couldn't handle, unless it was floor intevention to keep some really ignorant fool from getting his butt kicked. I respect the players there and they legislate themselves amazingly well.
