He sure had a good run

Now THAT is an advantage player. He may never play BJ again on his terms (unavailable to all but the losing rich and famous), but he's made his money. I hope he has enough sense (and it sounds as if he has) to keep it.

Smart man, not so smart casinos.

Great story! Thanks for sharing!

I enjoyed that, thanks for sharing. This was very smart what he did, I wish I had that intelligence at the blackjack tables. But why did the casinos keep letting him play until he cleaned them out, seems crazy!

No wonder!

Great article and he is the MAN!

BUT, my hubby and I just gt back from the Tropicana (Our 21st wedding aniiversary )and .....lol....2 hands of BJ @$25 table limit...2 seconds and we were out of there! lol.....the dealer was funny...she laughed...

Jim received a face card and a 10...the dealer 21...then Jim got 19...the dealer 20. With a limit of $300...well, then it was the slots, a Cuban dinner and we bought my nephew a 'Hovering Helicopter half price from the Trop. ( His face, made it all worth it!)

Damn that guy! Now we all have to pay for the next um.. month? (...really they make so much money, it's stoopid).

BTW? I was less impressed with the Tropicana this time around...the service ..not so good.

The Taj, next time.
