Entering mid-shoe at blackjack

29 June 2012
Dear Frank, I am learning to be an advantage player. Often, it is hard to get a seat at a table and the casino I frequent allows mid-shoe entry. My question is about coming into a game mid-shoe, count unknown. Should I just play the shoe out using basic strategy or should I begin the count from that point and play on regardless of the "history" of the cards already dealt? Dave Dear Dave: If the casino just lets you sit without playing, great...read more

A shuffle through the gaming mailbag

28 June 2012
Q. I won a mini-slot tournament for $750. Lucky me! It was a low entry fee with just one round of play, and the prize was based on the number of entrants. But then they said I had to sign a tax form before they could pay me. I'd won slot jackpots before, and I thought they didn't have the tax form unless they were over $1,200...read more

Finding your Valentine's Day machine

25 June 2012
My wife, the beautiful A.P., and I were married on Valentine's Day. She thought it was romantic; I thought it would be an easy date to remember. We were both quite happy with February 14; one of us for romance, one of us for practicality. We are Valentine's Day lovers. In truth, slot players are looking for their Valentine's Day machines -- what I call their "love machines." So what are such love machines? To discover what a "love machine" consists of, we must look at what true love consists of...read more

Ladies and Gentleman, Here They Are: The Beatles!

24 June 2012
The music world was forever changed on February 9th, 1964, the day the Beatles performed on the Ed Sullivan Show. The young lads from Liverpool, England, rocked the house, performing early classics such as "I Saw Her Standing There," "I Want To Hold Your Hand," "All My Loving," and "She Loves You." Anyone who was alive during this time knew exactly what they were doing and where they were at on that day. Unfortunately, for me, I was conceived 16 years, one day late from the event, never witnessing the true birth of Beatlemania...read more
