\tAfter spending the night in Stamford, CT, It occurred to me that it has been over a month since I did a live session. I held off on doing a live session, because I was upset at a business decision my brother made which I found out about after returning from my wonderful and relaxing trip to Mexico on Labor Day weekend. I will go into more detail in a thread called \u201cSide Money" http:\/\/www.goldentouchcasino.net\/forum\/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=10962<\/a>. That morning I felt mentally prepared to do a live session so I headed out to one of my favorite casinos where I am familiar with the table\u2019s reaction (taught in the advance class). <\/p>\n

\tI arrived at 5pm I was able to get SL2 right away and by the 2nd hand I slid over to SL1. I brought in for twice the amount needed for the session and every 15 min I pigeon-held a green until I reached 50% of my buy-in (Advance class detail). I did this as a practice routine in anticipation of future gains and better comp ratings.
\n\tOn the second hand, I started to feel a little heat. The stick-man warned me that If I don\u2019t bet on the shooter before me he will skip me. The current shooter was on SR2 and SR1 was a don\u2019t player, so right away I asked the SR1 if he planned to shoot the dice and he said \u201cNo\u201d. So I put a come bet with-out doing a five count so I would not get skipped. The stick-man heat stopped when he saw I putting the dealers on the line.
\n\tOn the 4th a well dress guy in a black suit was stood on the long end of the table watching my throw, not sure if he was a pit-boss, but it was a little distracting being that no players were at the end of the table and had a nice landing zone. I try to focus on my shot and not on who is who in the pit, but the guys disappeared and it seemed that a woman was the pit, so I am sure what his role was. I think it was a form of heat. <\/p>\n

\tThe 5th hand they changed the dice to a new sleeve right before it was my turn. <\/p>\n

\tThe game ran very slow mainly because most of the dealers were new to the craps game. They would get confused on simple payouts. With all that was happening, I forgot to reload a full odds bet on my 8 and I had bases loaded, so it really hurt when I hit that 8 to find that the odds bet was missing. An experienced dealer would of reminded me to put odds especially if I am tipping the pass-line. Btw this mistake cost me because I SO on the next throw after loading the 8.
\n\tMost of the hands were good rolls one or two hands I had to navigate around chips on my landing zone, reaction was great, some of the rolls would stop dead at the foot of the alligator with a hard-way showing. I would get excited when I see that happen. I don\u2019t count rolls because I am using money management counters which are far more important to me, because it tells me when to exit or when I am even or ahead without counting all the chips in the rail. <\/p>\n

\tAlthough not my best at this table, in the end I was still able cashed out at a rate of $20.33 per hour for a 7 hr period. Practiced my Pigeon-holding strategy and got some live-Play and tested my tolerance of playing with small amounts of heat, in-experienced dealers and lastly was able to block the family issue that was bothering me. Never forget, we have a small edge over the casino and there are so many factors that impact our edge and it is important to play only in optimal conditions. I signed up for the Video-Elite in AC and looking forward to seeing my GTC extended family members execute the craft at the tables. <\/p>\n

\tPS: Refreshers, when you feel your ready talk to Dom, NFF and BTK about taking advance class and add the Video-Elite you will learn so much and its just like a great movie talking it over again you feel like you learned something new and your game will improve to a whole different level. Your throw is like your car, you want to bring it to the experts for preventive maintenance and not when you have a serious problem that would cost you lots of money in losses. <\/p>\n

\tYours Truly,
\n\tMR. PiP<\/p>\n

Mr. Pip,<\/p>\n

\tGreat to see you incorporating many of the things we taught you in the Advanced class. Your investment is paying off because you are a great student.
\n\tThanks for the good words about the Video Elite. It is so beneficial for anyone taking the Advanced Class.<\/p>\n
