Georgia judge asked to stop new Vidalia onion rul...

The 'objective' things like time, date, table-number, buy-in/cash-out, etc are important; but I also like to look at the 'subjective' things too because they often provide the much needed insight into what went right ...what went wrong ...what my attitude was BEFORE...DURING...and AFTER the session...

MP: Leaving the ATS bet standing after a 7 come out roll, would that not change the odds considerably? Hi Pradice, That’s a great question.

Hi Dork, If you are playing at a solo or near-solo table, and you want to KEEP it that way; then, as you hand in a dealer-toke , politely ask the stickman if he can keep his " win " calls as LOW as possible...and to make his 7-Out calls as LOUD as possible. 8-) That's usually sufficient t...

Hi Dork, Generally, if the shooting-conditions remain good, and the table hasn't been colonized by mid-hand newcomers; then I'll stick around for one more try if the dice-return lap-time still looks reasonable.
