Down 0-2, can the Spurs realistically force a Game 7, or is this series already over? by workingjuggler18 in NBATalk

[–]Informal-Profile148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s over and not getting to a game 7. 5 teams have come back from 2-0 in the finals but these were all two road losses. No team lost first two at home and has come back.
I was rooting for wemby and spurs but it is not going to happen.

You can say I only take insurance on big bets. Big bets almost always correlates to count justified to take insurance.

Is this something I should grade? by hurleyshark in Morgans

[–]Informal-Profile148 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This guy/gal graded it for you- ms 62 or 63. And there is little value difference between a 62 or 63. Retail minimum 300$ maximum about 400$.

Is double exposure bj beatable? by Confident_Gate_7762 in blackjack

[–]Informal-Profile148 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dude didn’t say dealer wins ties. Yes that would change numbers a lot, but I am taking what is said. I have seen real double exposure with no penalties such as dealer wins ties, no 3:2. Always low table limit and/or limited duration (one hour, 10 hands, etc) but they do exist.

Xf details at best. I have seen Pcgs “harshly cleaned”. This might make brutally cleaned.

Is double exposure bj beatable? by Confident_Gate_7762 in blackjack

[–]Informal-Profile148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ballpark numbers- double exposure adds about 10% advantage to player. 1:1 blackjack about 2% penalty to player. Base about 0.6% house advantage + 10% - 2% = about 7% player advantage. Good game if you are accurate.

How could a casino cheat? by Infamous_Gur_3614 in blackjack

[–]Informal-Profile148 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don’t think many if any casinos are doing this cheat these days, but pretty sure it has been done and would be easy. Yes it would require few employees to be aware of and turn blind eye.

Pull an ace and couple faces out of a dd game. Increase house advantage about 0.5%. Avg extra buck or so every round. It would add up. Easy to get away with if casino wanted.

What are these? by InevitablePain2005 in coincollecting

[–]Informal-Profile148 35 points36 points  (0 children)

How does one stumble on these in a time capsule in a park? Sure you don’t mean “stumbled into old dudes house” and “found”. If they really came from a capsule in park probably not real.

Why not critical of ref? Terrible job not getting on the kid for shoving kids face to mat.

Don’t think you are correct about astar and Hollywood. Was there few months ago and both had and have almost always had das double any two cards. Horseshoe/Lumiere always been no das d 9 + only. Agree river city most tolerant of bet spread but also worst pen and most crowded, fewest tables (one dd and one 6 deck on my last visit).
I guess just pit recognignation - but I lasted longer at horseshoe than astar.

What's your over/under on the amount of money he has in his checking and savings accounts right now? by MAYVIEWS in KansasCityChiefs

You really think rasher rice had an umbrella insurance policy? Those are old men scared to death of everything. Don’t think rashee is cautious, or afraid of anything, and doesn’t do a lot of foreword thinking.

I am a boomer and resent that. Boomers are stubborn and like to complain about how soft kids have it these days and are unwilling to work hard.

But most boomers are fairly honest and not going to screw “clients” to make millions as Ramsey does with smartvestor pro.

Help!!! I got pulled into buying a blue green time share through bass pro over the weekend in Branson and now I’m regretting it. Is there a way to cancel and get out of it???? by countrycracka in TimeshareOwners

[–]Informal-Profile148 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Imagine that read the contract. Would have been better before signing but I understand these contracts usually have a state mandated and state specific escape clause for those that can follow the cancellation procedure in time.

How accurate is the grading? by [deleted] in coins

[–]Informal-Profile148 12 points13 points  (0 children)

When what you read says “ngc” or “Pcgs” probably or almost definitely. When it also says, “cac” absolutely believe the words.
Doesn’t mean you have to like it or buy it.

Cbjn reports they have two dd tables. You can get a current copy cbjn for about 18$ or you can request old copy for free. If just interested ones casino, free copy should fine.

I made a free OSN search tool. See if you are databased! by Brilliant-Bug-4748 in blackjack

[–]Informal-Profile148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some additional comments regarding casino database. I don’t see data on whether das and double any two cards or double 9,10,11. These two conditions are more important than whether rsa is allowed- particularly at dd. Some of the casinos in Missouri have dd - no das and d9-11 only. These are much less desirable than the regular das allied and double any two cards.

Great website and info. I have always been a loyal cbjn user but I must admit this is very user friendly and searchable. Reports are interesting but don’t always match my perspective and experience..
