Bally's AC JWD Update & anecdote

#1

$5 triple play machines have been downgraded (quad pays 8 instead of
9).
$1 triple play are still around.

Also, anecdote from recent trip:

Aadvantage player threatened to "freeze me out" with his friends
if I consulted my cheat sheet. Then he had the audacity to play my
hand for me when I was deciding whether to hold a pat straight or go
for a straight flush.

I actually pulled the straight flush on one of the three hands, but I
was still annoyed at the hubris of this guy!

Aadvantage players who are "GEEK BULLIES" should not be tolerated.

Hi.
   This is just my opinion, but shouldn't you know how to play a game reasonably well without pieces of paper? If I were a casino employees it would certainly draw my attention. This added attention does not benefit the community as a whole. Perhaps this "Geek bullie" was just annoyed with the fact that you had not learned the game well enough before attempting to play it. In the future consult with him/her to help you play the hands. From what you said it might be to your advantage. It sounds like he "pulled" the straigh flush, not you! If he refuses you can then threaten to make airplanes out of your hundreds of 8 by 11 cheat sheets and send them his way. You'll no longer possess them which will make you unhappy, but at least it will teach him/her a lesson. Never screw with a potential airforce of cheat sheets. Of course, this is all said tongue in sheet, I mean cheek.

Under no circumstances does another player have a right to play
another player's hand, even if he/she pulls a royal flush!
Just my opinion!

Finally, even if you play a game reasonably well, there will be
those hands that come up that test all but the most accomplished
players. In fact, at the Venetian, Jean Scott actually complimented
me for referring to a sheet when playing a particularly arcane hand.

I would think most posters here, especially after other recent posts,
would consider playing other people's machine to be stealing. In
which case, you should call security and get those mean advantage
players tresspassed!

I always bring my Jazbo AA card, but rarely use it. Usually I get
bored and start figuring out the correct strategy for the AA player
next to me while I am playing 1000 hph. It is sad that the person has
a card and still makes the wrong hold. I bet they were using strategy
for the wrong game.

FYI: I hate people watching me play AA when I have to break a high
pair to go for a flush. It is funny to watch them think I made an
incorrect play, especially when I hit the flush. Or break up the two
pair to go for the certain 3 card Royals.

It's still his money and he can play it however he want's. The "Geek Bullie" has no business telling someone else what to do with thier money, even if he's playing real badly.
     I see a lot of people using stragegy card's in Atlantic city, and have never seen a casino worker stop them.

I might have turned towards him and said in a loud voice "NO, YOU CAN'T GIVE
ME A BJ."

Cheat sheets are bad for business. I know some of you think this is
fun, but you're taking money out of our pockets by such foolishness.
Not to mention money from yours' too. Surely, you're aware the $5 and
$10 DJWs at Bally's were downgraded recently.

Some tourist will find something we've known about for months, tell
someoe, and then no one understands why the machine disappears or gets
downgraded two weeks later. Casinos are not charities, nor are in
business to lose money. They frequently make mistakes, but the way I
see it, it's solely their business to find the mistake and correct it,
not yours'.

When South Coast first opened, teams were sent in with cheat sheets to
play 50-play DDB. Everyone had one, front and center. All that was
missing was the "99.96" payout on the 10-6-40 DDB sheet. It was pretty
raw, especially since DDB isn't exactly a challenge to play. One guy
came in with four sheets for the Jacks 5-play Multistrike. A friend of
mine would tell him the right play, he'd stare at him, consult his
sheet, think about it, and maybe 15 seconds later make the recommended
play. Then he would babble on about VPFree.

Which reminds me, I'm currently teaching my Webmistress to play
FPJWKB. While she's a ways from being casino ready, I can safely
assure you she won't need no #$%^&*( sheet when she's ready to play.
