If you're gonna be in LA in august and plan to play i would recommend playing at the Bike. Legends of poker will be there all month and the action is great at the cash tables IMO

Blackjack Attack, Mason Malmuth's Blackjack Essays, Blackbelt in blackjack, and a bunch of other ones. But I think Blackjack Ayyack is probably the single most comprehensive stand alone text if I were to pick one.

Interesting, I will probably check it out then. During regular times the bike would be my absolute last pick to play. The 5/10 was a horrible game. The 5/5 was almost just as depressing. Literally 0 action.

Oh a small side story. My roommate figured out some weird loophole to beat the bubble craps machines at Aria and Caesar's Palace. He made $50k in a 48hr period. So sick to see his $20k+ slot tickets. The only reason he stopped playing is because they shut down the machines he was playing on. I wonder if they've caught on to whatever glitch he found.

I would've def got in on it if I hadn't been leaving. He tried to explain it to me, but I'm not much of a craps person and it sounded kind of complicated. But the gist of it was he found some way to freeroll on his Don't bets. I'm sure a bunch of people will get fired once they figure out what happened.

Turntup, where do you usually play? Maybe we can meet up at the Bike when I'm there.

This month I will be at the Bike probably 2-3 times a month. Most likely Thursday and Saturday nights.

PM me if you wanna meet up sometime,I only play 2-3 maybe 5-5 tho. Not as much of a baller as you haha

love the theard

Thx Vino!

Was doing some thinking and remembered a hand I had that makes me laugh.

This was on the tail end of a 24hr 5/10 session at Aria. I believe I had about 4800. Villain had me barely covered. He was an Irish guy on his last few days in Vegas. I had played with him a few times and we were seated next to each other. He played a tight straightforward solid game. We never really got into it at all and I think kind of just stayed out of each other's way. He had seen me bluff a couple times, but I think he still viewed me as playing solid values. Especially this session since there were three big fish in the game.

Anyways on To the hand.

Pf: villain raises UTG to 40, I make it 110, folds to him, he makes it 300, I call.

Flop(615): J T 5
He bets 400 I make it 1400 he calls.
Turn(3415): 3
He checks, I shove, he tanks for a min, flashes two red Aces and mucks.

Guess my hand and win a prize.

A2ss?

46ss. Or 10 3o

55

Good guesses, but this one will be pretty difficult to pinpoint.

Would be pretty sick if you had the other 2 Aces
