College football week 4 POTW

For today's pick of the week we go back to the Michigan Wolverines, who we won on in week 2  This week they are 18 point favorites at home against the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Here is my analysis and pick:

Michigan has rebounded nicely from a season-opening loss to Notre Dame, getting blowout wins each of the last two weeks. The pressure is still on head coach Jim Harbaugh to compete for the Big Ten title this year, and they really need to win this game to get off to a good start in league play.

Nebraska had the worst defense in the Big Ten last season (436 Avg. yards allowed per game) and they don't appear to be any better this year.  The really bad news for Husker fans is that this group got worse as the year went on. 

Nebraska fell to Troy, 24-19 last week, as a 10-point home favorite, at one point trailing 17-0. Their run defense is good, but their secondary is suspect. Their quarterback is injured and will not be at 100%. It's not a recipe for success.

I don't think they have the weaponry to hang with the Wolverines. Look for Michigan to start fast in this game, and take control against a defensive unit that probably doesn't have much confidence after Nebraska's 0-2 start. Take Michigan -18.

What's the surveillance room like? Repost

This is a repost of a post I made about a year ago, but I feel like it bares s repeating. Enjoy. I got another good question last week, from a reader wanting to know what a surveillance room is like, how it is laid out and how it is staffed and run.  So here goes. I have worked in surveillance departments at six different casinos in the last 25 years. Some very small (300 slots, 6 blackjack tables) and some very big (3000 slots, 60-70 table games of all kinds). When I started in the early 90's it was all VCRs and not all cameras were recorded all the time. We used a lot of "multi-plexers" and "quad screens". A multi-plexer used one VCR to display and record up to 16 screens on one monitor. Since the VCR still records at 30 frames per second, that meant that if you did a review on any one of those 16 screens you would be looking at a "freeze frame" effect, where you only got 1.8 frames per second of the shot you were looking at. A quad would record ...

Maybe they're about to release a new app, and there are rumors that Google is going to buy them out. Maybe you've squirreled away some "mad money...

Reader question.

OK well, I'm back to posting after about a 6 month. I absence. Sorry I was in and out of the hospital with a bunch of problems, but I'm all better now So i noticed that during my abs. Since I got a few questions from readers, I would like to answer one of them now. So the question is, how much money should you take with you to the casino? the answer is of course, if depends. If you happen to be one of the lucky people who live in a jurisdiction where legalize cambling is allowed. And it's a place that you go to to have fun or relax, Or just have some excitement in your life, then that will be a different amount that you will want to take with you as opposed to someone who is making a trip to Vegas that they make only once a year. And if you live Nevada, like I do and you go into casinos all the time, then that will be a different answer as well. As a general rule of thumb. I don't walk into a casino. Unless I have a $100 that I am willing to lose. If you don...
