As for the Win Cards I saw the flyer at the cashiers cage
(downstairs), handed it to the cashier, showed my slot card, and that
was that. Actually it took about five minutes as this was on the first
day of the promo and I was the first client. I think with the Win
Chips at the blackjack table, if you get a blackjack, it only pays even
money.

Well Congrats at being #1! So how did you do with your (pink, yellow, blue,
white?) promo chips? Was there a tip coupon for the dealers this time around?
For 2008 I am down $10 doing matchplays. That was the coupon in the
Entertainer for a matchplay chip for EW/CB. I boldly played roulette and went O for 2
betting black. Hamstockman had a streak of eight wins going up in Northern
Nevada betting black, so I followed his lead. I guess red is the play in
Southern Nevada. But his matchplays were better than the standard $5 ones too and
were part of offers.
We might never see Hamstockman in Southern Nevada again.

Back to BJ promo chips/matchplays...that even payoff for a BJ steers me to
the Craps table. Make unit bets, every 21 units bet gets a blackjack, so that
costs you a half unit per 21 hands. That is a 2.4% addition to the vig.
Pass and Come bets cost you 1.41% on Craps. Roulette is 5.26%, but generates
the least pain to the dealer and other players. It is over quickly and you
don't run the risk of having to stick out more money to play correct strategy.
