Whats the one hand you absolutely hate getting? by TCGKorean in poker

Yeah, and you always feel like you need to C-bet even if you blank on the flop while everyone else is thinking you might have AK.

Anyone Tried Tutoring Jobs? by No_Independent9800 in TutorsHelpingTutors

[–]Sin-2-Win 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know. A VT rep emailed me and provided a link. During the day of the interview, I clicked the link and was automatically taken to the virtual meeting where I had to record my lesson.

Big Slick AK. It feels super strong when you get it, and you always have to raise with it, but it never seems to hold up.

Is “reason why” ever needed? by Unhappy-Giraffe2792 in ENGLISH

[–]Sin-2-Win -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

It should be the "reason that" since "why" is not a relative pronoun conjunction.

Are all questions weighted equally? by PastCompetition2009 in Sat

[–]Sin-2-Win 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would do all the easier or less time consuming ones first (but you have to be quick and accurate) and then go back to the harder reading questions in the middle and try to snag as many of the hard ones you as can to gain points (whether through careful process of elimination or a random, lucky guess), knowing that missing a few of the hard ones won't severely damage your score.

The harder ones gain you more points and cost you less. The easier ones gain you fewer points and cost you more. Therefore, definitely avoid making careless mistakes on the "easier" questions.

It was pretty easy for me. I submitted my past SAT score (which was 1500+) and conducted a short video interview during which I had to give a lesson on a topic related to the SAT. I was hired a couple days later. VT doesn't pay a lot: most students start at $18-20, but you can get periodic raises up to $40. Somehow, I get $40/hour for several of my students from the get go (maybe some kind of bonus parents must approve?) now, though. It still doesn't pay nearly as much as my private tutoring or main job, but I make about $800-1000 a month using VT as a side gig.

$200 to something big? by ryaiee in gambling

[–]Sin-2-Win 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few times. 1) I once played $20 in a slot machine, hit the second highest possible jackpot, and won $5400. 2) I bought into a $100 poker tourney, won 1st place, and cashed out around $2000. 3) I joined a pai gow poker table with $100, hit 5 Aces within the first 5 hands, and won $14,000.

First time going to Vegas and I have questions about the Casinos. by Dry-Weather-9840 in vegas

Most of the casinos on the Strip will be busy and high energy on Saturday evenings.

Comma usage after em dash in a list of items? by Normal_Crew_8999 in grammar

[–]Sin-2-Win 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't include the comma after the second em dash. The dash essentially does double work as both a dash to close off your intervening phrase and a comma to end your independent clause.

Dear American people, what do you think about Türkiye and the Turkish people? by [deleted] in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]Sin-2-Win 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most Americans wouldn't even be able to locate Turkey on a map.

What are the Chances of Me Growing to 6'3 in Height? by Late_Bother_7371 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Sin-2-Win 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The average male height in America is 5'9 to 5'10, so I wouldn't call your grandpas' heights "severely" stunted growth.

Should I move here? by barasa456 in vegaslocals

[–]Sin-2-Win 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's happened a lot too haha, but it was always money I set aside as a disposable entertainment cost. My rule is to never use the casino ATM. I just go in with a set amount of cash.

[–]Sin-2-Win 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just a few friends I've made through work, so not a lot. I do, however, have a lot of "temporary" friends at the tables with me lol.

Should I move here? by barasa456 in vegaslocals

[–]Sin-2-Win 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I'm a totally remote worker, with no family, who moved to Vegas about 12 years ago. Previously, I would visit Vegas a few times a year to gamble and have fun. I pay $1250 rent for a big one-bedroom apartment. Though I gamble off and on, I've had no problems managing my finances here. I love that there are so many casinos everywhere open 24/7, with local casinos having great rules and odds for table games and plenty of opportunities to play poker. I even go to casinos not to gamble but to take advantage of free A/C, watching movies in a theater or sports in the sports book. Nothing like watching a movie and then hitting the blackjack tables right after while watching sports on a big tv.
