Bob Dancer Blog

Have not been able to access latest Dancer Blog. Something wrong?

I read it on Wednesday on my computer,  but it does not show up on my phone.   Technology!  It was about a trip to Atlantic City. 

I refreshed the page and it is there now. 

Refreshed page, still not able to access.

I can't use an iPhone to access LVA correctly.  The pages are all out of date, forums only show posts days old.

Is the most recent one the one dated for the 27th? If so it is visible to me. 

What happens when you click the link?

I was using an android device with chrome browser. Seems to work fine. 

The popup ads sometimes cover the entire screen. LVA's website has this problem in general--overly obtrusive ads.

I don't like reading Dancer's blog any more. It sounds like he's not having any fun. Most people his age would be retired and doing things that they've always wanted to do. He's still working...and he spent New Year's Day slot vulturing.

He continually tells us (not in explicit terms) how stupid he thinks his wife is. I very much doubt that he lets her play when they visit casinos, as that would just dilute the ol' bankroll and he certainly wouldn't trust her to play VP accurately.

It might be, as he recently alluded, force of habit more than anything else. His wife likes the "free" cruises, hotel stays, spa visits, etc. etc. He remarks that it would be a significant financial drain to continue that lifestyle if he quit gambling. AND...would his wife stick around if they retreated to a less glamorous, more humdrum existence? He's described her so condescendingly over the years; maybe she puts up with that because she gets those goodies? 

Anyway, that's their business. I just would like his blog to contain information that we all could use...as it did 10+ years ago. But maybe he's so far away from that--we casual but skilled players, trying to make our vacays less expensive--that he has nothing to offer.

If I were his friend, though, I'd tell him to stop gambling, as he said he was contemplating doing. Who the hell wants to die while sitting in front of a slot machine?

100% agree with that assessment of Dancer.  

He just seems like a miserable condescending dude that really isn't 1/100th as smart as he thinks he is.  He got really lucky playing BIG when EV was out there.  Way luckier than he should have been.  That's my take.  I'm not going to fawn all over him like 98% of his readers do.
