Rigged Game - Blackjack, Card Counting, Slots, Casinos, poker and Advantage Play Podcast

This was an interesting trip. Started off kind of slow. But I slowly put together some wins. Finally when things look like they were good and I was winding down for the day I took large loss putting me negative for the rest of the night. After that I went from casino to casino trying to put things back together again.

Tuesday episode. On my way to the casino I saw that the roads were closed for miles. It took me a long time to get around the closure and finally get to my casino. The casino didn't have a lot of plays available. Even when I came back in the afternoon things were pretty quiet. However I did finally see why the road was closed.

Just another Monday. Wish I was in Vegas.

Making money on a Sunday. blackjack, slots and more.

Not the most exciting day, but was able to get some action in and make some money.

Slots and poker today.

Wednesday overnight episode. Today was a really long day. Played at eight different casinos. Got some table games play in but not as much as I would have liked. Overall a lot of miles for an okay amount of money. Definitely worth it but tiring.

This was my Tuesday episode. Unfortunately had a rough time at the casino in my first session. I was down as much as $1,000 and kept bumping around near the bottom. Went back to work, then came back for another session.

Planning my next trip to Vegas. Monday episode. Working at the office, playing slots and getting ready for my next trip.

Sunday episode. I left home a little late today. I was still able to have some decent variety though. I did play some Blackjack and some slots today as well as go back to a casino that I was removed from multiple times.

I got home around 5:00 a.m. this morning and left a little after 7:00 a.m. I played slots and some online games. I also played live 1-2 No Limit Hold'em.

Another long day today. About 900 Mi plus. Left home early and drove about 5 hours to my first Casino after checking in at the office. Played there for what seemed like forever, only breaking even. There was some controversy there over a $350 double down hand. And then I moved on to another area. Played a few casinos there with some success. Also played some No Limit Hold'em at low stakes and lost to a royal flush. Afterward I moved on to a small Casino in a remote area, before hitting the big city. Overall was a very long day and was about 23 hours round trip.

It started off as a normal Wednesday. And slowly spiraled into anger. I actually mocked the Pit Bosses today. I played some Blackjack and some slots. Eventually settling for some thrift storing.

Getting increasingly angry as the day went on, I finally decided to cut my day short and head home.

Getting I'm back into the office. Answering emails, getting caught up on work and team meetings. I'm back at my local casino for a few sessions today.

My Sunday episode. Ended up being a very snowy day. On the way home the roads were completely covered. Had a decent day. Got back into a casino that I was kicked out of twice, including once with a police escort.

Playing at The Venetian, Wynn, Airport, home casino. Gamblers supply superstore.

Every time I think I have things figured out I'm thrown for a loop. This was an absolutely crazy day of ups and downs. Big plays and nothing results. Big money and big disappointments.

Another incredibly long day. I played at the Venetian, Wynn, Cosmopolitan, Planet Hollywood, Paris, Horseshoe, Bellagio, Silverton, and South Point today. Started the day down almost $8,000.

Part 2 of our Vegas trip. We went to the Wynn, the Venetian, Caesars Palace, the Stratosphere, Boulder Station, Arizona Charlie's, Sam's Town, Southpoint, and others.

Sunday, and Vegas!

Friday episode. It was a long drive to my first casino. I played in that area for a while then I needed to take a friend of mine to pick up his car. His car was a few hours away and there was a casino in the area so I played there for a while.

Visiting casinos I said I would never got back to.

A terrible start but putting up a good fight.The comeback trail.

Things are looking up.

This is my Monday episode. Should have been a boring day, but came with a lot of big swings. I also played online at two different sites today.

This episode starts on Saturday when I get a rental car. Continues into Sunday. I have a long Sunday trip. Immediately started making money. Unfortunately it didn't last long. I also had two different sessions where I shared a lot full with someone. One in a different state, and one guy who wanted me to share it with him to reduce his risk in the casino I was in.

I leave home, forgetting that I need to check in at the office. Immediately the snow starts to fall and the roads become worse and worse. To stop for a team meeting before continuing on. I get to play some Blackjack and some slots today, but not without some friction. Again I have to call out the Pit Boss.

Part two of my overnight trip. Driving home and playing locally as well as live poker.

Wednesday overnight trip. After a lot of thought I decided to try to do a Wednesday overnight trip. The point is to save time coming home Wednesday night then leaving Thursday morning. Hoping to save 8 hours of driving. This will allow me to go further and explore other casinos as well. I was able to go to five different casinos today. Many of them hours apart.

Trouble with the new car? Work and trying to gamble.

Monday at work. Cabinets coming tomorrow. I win a jackpot and more.

I visited a casino on saturday. I took my kids to a baseball card show on Sunday. I then left very late in the afternoon for my Sunday trip. Ended up being a day that lasted into the morning hours.

What a disgusting day it was. Was down close to $20,000 at one point. Also silver crashed due to political garbage. I'm sure it will be right back up on Monday but was a very bad day emotionally.

To say this was a bad day would definitely be an understatement. Silver crashed levels from a week ago but it felt like everything was falling apart. Obvious manipulation of the market is still trying to suppress the pricing of silver even though around the world the price is remained the same. On top of that I had an extremely bad day at the tables where a 4-Hour session yielded a big loss.

A decent day today with a variety of Advantage play. I played some slots, blackjack, and worked on a long-term play.

The snow kept on falling. I was finally able to get out of the house Monday and Tuesday. We did not have to go into the office so it gave me an opportunity to take a long trip on Tuesday

Attempting to make money in a snow emergency.

And..... the journey continues. Friday episode.

Thank you all for a thousand wonderful episodes. This episode is just some thoughts that came to mind as I was driving to work. It's nothing formal, but I just spoke from the heart. I thought back to where we started and where we are. The community that we built in the wonderful people I met along the way. I discussed all the good and bad things that happened.

Thursday episode. Played some Blackjack and slots. Attempted to get back to playing Blackjack at a casino I haven't been able to play for a while.

This episode started off as a regular Wednesday episode and developed into a very long day. Ended up driving about 250 more miles than I expected to. Ended up on an 18-hour Journey before getting back home. I also visited some casinos that I haven't been to for a long time.

This episode starts after my Sunday to Monday episode. After I drop off the family at home from our overnight trip I head out to the casino. It also includes Tuesday at work and going out of town for one Casino play.

I ended up taking my wife and one of my kids with me on an overnight. I obviously didn't get a chance to do as many things as I would have liked, but still made money and had a decent time with the family.

I have a decent day, but I get mad at myself for making a mistake, even though it made me money. I end up having a bad attitude and having to straighten myself out.

This episode starts with some bad weather. I finally get to the casino and only have a few chances to make money on the tables. I play some slots as well. I decide to go to a place I was told not to come back to. Then I drove all the way home and passed it to one more stop.

I have a very long day today. I drive over 10 hours to try to make some money. this includes the side project that I'm working on that I haven't really expanded on yet.

I had a hard time getting out of work because so much was going on at the office. I was finally able to get out. I'm glad I did because I hit the first jackpot of the year.

It's another work monday. I go to the casino between meetings and tasks at work. I have a decent day.

I finally got there! I finally got to the $1 million level!

I start the day by going to the office and checking in. The weather is bad and so are the roads. I travel to my first stop. I run into all kinds of issues while I am there. I play with ridiculous players. I deal with ridiculous dealers, and pit bosses. I decide to take a break and cool down before continuing. Afterward I am able to come back and turn things around in a big way.
