True, but we keep a close eye on it. We keep it as clean as possible. Funny you don't see to many hamburgers or greasy foods like that to much. Most of the food I see is from N.O.W., Sea Blue, and Wolfgang.

Borgata is one of the few places that get this right in AC

The only thing worse than ass cheese on your steak is greasy ass cheese on your steak.

First time collusion deserves a penalty - sit out one round.
Second time - disqualification.

Being "nice" to a cheater the first time is penalizing the rest of the table for the cheater's dishonesty. If he thought that it was okay, now he knows better.

This is similar to a dealer allowing a string-raise. If you're "nice" to a player, and allow it one time, they'll probably continue to do it. But, if you explain the procedure for raising and make them take it back, they'll almost certainly know how to raise in the future.

Because, you know, once it gets this high, it due to be hit any time now.

Just like playing Roulette: seven blacks in a row on the history indicator, it's got to be red on the next spin?

Thanks for you post, you have proven the point that you are smarter then most, and have a great grasp on your mathematics. I am glad that my stupidity could make you look better. But really I was just using the big BBJ to get my ass off my comp, get in the shower and head over to the Borg. If im putting 1 dollar every pot I might as well atleast try and play as much as possible when it gets high

You're right and i think this is the way it should be as well. Thanks for your input!

What does that have to do with wanting to hit the BBJ when it's high as opposed to low?

Indeed. The showerer never said anything about bbj being due or similar twaddle.

The BBJP shouldn't be this high. It actually hit twice since the last time. Once on a tournament table and once it was folded. The story as i remember it:

Pocket kings, sevens and fours. The flop is KKblank, the quad K's check, the pocket sevens makes a $70 bet, The pocket fours fold. Turn and river is a four.

If 7 blacks hit in a row, then black is due.
