10/19/04 - LA Times article on Chumash

There are related articles about graft and questionable activities
at Chumash, i.e. giving away blackjack chips, rigging tournaments,
rigging slot machines, etc. However, you needed to be registered at
latimes.com if you didn't read the newspaper (btw, I didn't
registered at latimes.com since it was asking for personal
information).

You may want to check out bugmenot.com It's a website that stores login names/
passwords for free sites that require personal information. My limited experience has
been that their accounts work for some sites and others you can go through 5-10
accounts without getting in. Time/frustration factor has been about break even for me.

Thanks for that site but I dont know if it is useable in this case,
I will check it out. I too have tried to read different articles
referenced in LA Times articles, but have always been asked to
subscribe to read more than the overview which is really what they
ask for. So in other words the site is not a free site.

As to Chumash rigging slot machines etc. I too have been wary at
local casinos here in San Diego and the use of shills and the like I
believe is very common here. What state control over these
operations and what fairness in games is really the question for
me. Are the VP Games really fair??? Some days 4 of a kind is
impossible…Fair?? Maybe not???

As for me... Vegas seems a fair bet....

Good Luck ....Beachstu
