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't have that much extra money in your life, you really have no business going into a casino anyway. And that's only if I'm just going to play a slot machine. If I'm going to play table games. I usually don't go in unless I have at least $300 to spend, and preferably $500 or more.
At that amount, I would look for a table that had a $25 minimum in a maximum of $500 at least for blackjack. (You would also want to look for a table that allows you to double down on any first 2 cards, but that's another story.)
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 ...
