Made a quick two day trip to AC. Getting playing time is difficult. Tables are often crowded. This morning I started at the casino where I was staying. At 5:30 AM, my spot was taken. I drove to another casino and my spot was taken. I drove to a third casino and lo and behold, the table was empty. I was shocked. I ended up playing alone from 6 AM until 7:40 AM when I left for breakfast.
My first two rolls were 5 and 7. After that I got hot. A 40 and a 31. Then a 5, followed by a 21, 7, 14 and 21. I was tipping like mad with the casino’s money. When I left I thanked the crew. A dealer said, no, we thank you. Yesterday, at this same casino I found my spot at SR1. I again had two crappy rolls, followed by a 31. There was another shooter, apparently a GTCer. He had a few crappy rolls and then got hot. He made four points. All in all, a very good in and out trip. I still have not figured out after over 10 years of doing this how the switch goes on and off.

Bet smart and wait for the good day to develop and then take home the cash.

One thing you mentioned that we always find crazy, is the fact you go to one casino and all the tables are crowded as all get out, go to another and your spots are taken, yet go to a third or 4th casino and the place is empty. We particularly commend you for taking your time until you found the place you wanted to play. This really takes discipline. There will be times when you can’t find a place to play and you head home. As Dom says, this is the mark of a true advantage player—the casino’s worst nightmare.
Will you be in AC during the class? Would be great to visit with you.

We (the Princess & I) go to AC once every 3 weeks or so, but with the casinos getting closed (one in particular) has really impacted where we go and how many times per month we make the AC trip
Please send me a (*PM) when you have time …. thanks so much –(the curious Lion)
Cannot wait to see everyone next Friday at the Open House

P.s. I would like to add to this a different situation which just happened to me. First time up to bat, did not count, but not a long roll, but decent, that gave me a $300 profit. Should I have left or just taken the money and run. Professor again
