For me it&#8217;s not bad but it is extremely difficult to get my preferred shooting position. Usually very crowded and sometimes table limits are above my threshold.<\/p>\n<p>\tScooter<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> JesJac on March 3, 2016, 3:26 am<\/p>\n<div>I have very little difficulty getting my position.  The dealers know me, many of the players know me and I ask politely if I can play in.   Sometimes other players tell people to let me in so they can get back their money  \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>\tAs for the table action &#8212; if you mean the bounce &#8212; the only table I like is the small one closest to the exit.  The other small one bounces more and I do not do as well on it.  I only played the long ones once a while ago and I was not at a point where I paid as much attention to the bounce as I was still working on my throw.<\/p>\n<p>\tThat long one was a pleasant experience though I lost money.  That was the day a little while after I had received my table.   The thing about it was that I made the same mistake on that long table I was making at home and got exactly the same dice reaction.  That was my first reality that the GTC full table I bought was exactly the same as the casino tables.<\/p>\n<p>\tOn many occasions that has again and again been borne out.   What I am doing at home on my table is an accurate indicator of what I will do at the various casinos.<\/p>\n<p>\tSince I am only there for a few hours either before my plane or, this time after I arrived and then today, before leaving.<\/p>\n<p>\tHave you ever eaten at the Frog Bar?   The food there is some of the best I have eaten.  The meats are excellent but there is something about the shrimp they have there.  Usually large shrimp are a bit bland and flavorless.  Theirs is always tastely as lobster.<\/p>\n<p>\tI will be back in town on the 18th to teach the weekend.  Friday night I will have free and there is a 100% chance I will be there.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I hit Rivers yesterday on the way into a consulting gig for $4+K going back around 130pm today.
