Hey!
I hope everybody is winning a lot of money. I just came back from Atlantic City. I would like to share my experiences at the casinos, I stood at the Taj Mahal, they just finished renovating a new area for Paigow poker – not my game but people seem to love it.
The Taj is also trying to keep up with the Showboat, who has the whole House of Blues thing going on, with a live DJ on Saturday nights and adding different groups headlining on the weekends they did an excellent job appealing to a younger crowd. To find out what performers are performing in AC and Vegas pick up a copy of Casino Player magazine those back pages are golden. The Taj renovated an area and put in a new bar. It’s no Showboat but they did a good job with the big screen TV’s and the decor is nice. It’s located right behind all the table games.
People, I’m sorry I have to do this, but this is what we do here at CasinoandSportschat.com – we Inform you not only from where to play and where to stay, but what eating establishments to stay away from, Please, Please, stay away from the Bombay Cafe at the Taj. The food is absolutely horrible, the Donald should be ashamed of himself for associating his name with that food. I would not feed there breakfast to my Dog!
As far as the Gambling thing goes myself and Pops held our own. We played Craps, Blackjack, Let it Ride, we fooled around with the slot machines and the video poker machines. we came back from this trip up $450 dollars. On the first day I got destroyed with craps, and we DO practice dice control, which I will get into at another time. I lost my whole spending limit. That’s right, people, you will never have any kind of success gambling unless you have a set spending limit in your head and in your pocket. DO NOT GO OVER YOUR SPENDING LIMIT! If its $100 dollars a day or $5000 dollars a day, PLAY SMART.
The second day we got even and then some at the Blackjack tables, and yes card counting DOES work. But most times a basic strategy card will do just fine. It cuts the casino edge almost in half. Let it Ride is fun, but we were just wasting our money. I will keep trying to get that Royal Flush – the bonus bet on Let it Ride is a suckers bet. I will be listing all the sucker bets that the casinos have to offer – so stay tuned.
If you lose out on the Royal Flush Bonus of $ 25,000 dollars you will jump off a bridge. You do what you want, but I break my own rule on this suckers bet and I cough up the dollar for the bonus bet.
Just a quick comment on the new Wheel of Fortune game the casinos are offering…
I found it at Resorts, The Taj and the Showboat, and I’m sure its linked to the rest of the casinos in AC. There’s a replica of a giant wheel of fortune wheel that’s about 10ft wide. There are double benches that are seated around the wheel and people are actually cheering in the casinos as this giant wheel spins. All connected to the video slot terminal in front of you. By the way it is a nickel slot terminal, progression. The current jackpot was over 1.6 million dollars – thats alot of money
That’s it for today. Good Luck, and I hope to see you at the tables.
