Frank Scoblete Gaming Guru - Page 6  Quit When You're Ahead27 August 2024
“You’ve got to quit when you’re ahead.” How many times have you heard someone say that and you nod in agreement or just look at the person who is saying it and not give a response? There is no sensible response to the statement. Correct. No sensible response. Give the saying some thought and you will see ... (read more)
Blackjack: Yes or No?20 August 2024
Blackjack is a game where you get to make plenty of decisions on how you play your hands against every dealer’s up-card. This hand tells you to stand; that hand tells you to double-down and do you take insurance against the dealer’s ace when you have blackjack? There are just so many, many decisions to make. ...

Good Roulette, Bad Roulette18 August 2024
There are now three roulette games that can be found in the casinos; the single-zero (0) game which are numbers 1-36 and a single green or blue zero; the double-zero (0, 00) game with two green zeroes and the numbers 1-36; and last but definitely least the triple-zero games with three green zeroes (0, 00, 000) and the numbers 1-36. ...

Losing Streaks13 August 2024
I’ve been playing casino games for a long, long time. Let me repeat; a long, long time. I’ve faced it all. Great winning streaks; good dealers, bad dealers, casinos that were filthy (usually out of the way places); famous people playing right next to me, good players, bad players, and everything in between. ...

The Pause that Refreshes11 August 2024
“Take a break,” I’ve told players who are either bleary-eyed, too tired, losing too much, winning a lot, winning loads of money, or they just look like they need a rest. So why don’t they take a rest? Resting is good. It is very good. You will rarely see an athlete who does not require intervals of rest. ... (read more)
Pascal's Wager6 August 2024
Blaise Pascal was a famous scientist, philosopher, and mathematician who invented the casino game of roulette which bankrupted many a nobleman (and woman) in the late 1600’s. He was also the man who figured out how to handle the issue of God’s possible existence. Indeed. His solution was ingenious. ... (read more)
Long Gone30 July 2024
The fish tank is huge. A man had to jump in it to clean it. There are salt water fish in it from all over the world. Even little sharks. Those checking in check out this tank with awe. Seigfried and Roy performed most nights. Roy took care of the tigers until one attacked him and laid him out by ripping his neck open. ... (read more)
Bye, Bye Money30 July 2024
We play games that we can’t beat. You know that. I know that. (Okay, some few advantage players might not know that.) But playing these games is just so much fun that once baptized in Lady Luck’s vivid stream we have little choice in the matter. That’s why we play them because like sirens of the seven seas these games call to us; perhaps to some inner part of us. ... (read more)
Blowhard25 July 2024
"Oh, please be quiet. You are talking too much." Okay I didn't say this. The guy was a blowhard; an incessant talker whose train of thought explained why he was great and why the casinos didn't understand his greatness. "Now, they don't give me the comps I deserve. No sireee! The casino is stingy. ... (read more)
Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery23 July 2024
They were in the pool at one of the most exclusive casinos in Las Vegas (And I do mean “exclusive”). Three of them; two older males (maybe in their late 40s or early 50s), and one younger guy, maybe in his late teens or young 20s And me. I was all the way at the other end. They were talking, loud. ... (read more)
