I have been writing about the benefits of opening new credit cards to achieve significant bonuses for several years now. I recently started on the business card aspect. There are many great business credit card deals for professional gamblers and even non professional APs should be able to qualify for the cards. Here are some […]
Podcast – Sherriff AP episode 9
Sherriff AP chucked it all to become a professional card counter. He had one of the worst losing streaks I have heard of, and I’m not just talking about losing money. Everything in his life seemed to all go wrong at the same time. I think most people would have quit, and never looked back, […]
Spinach!
I was playing $5 NSU Deuces Wild at Harrah’s Cherokee on a recent Seven Stars trip. This casino is one of many that will not let you accumulate credits on your machine greater than $2,999.99. If I have $2,900 in credits immediately after the deal and I end up with a $100 quad or full […]

The MRI on my right hip showed a number of issues, including arthritis. My orthopedist has convinced me that I need a new […]

It’s a Matter of Priorities
Recently in Las Vegas, there was a local pub offering a nice promotion between 1 a.m. and 8 a.m. several days a week. Not a great promo and not likely to be repeated, but I’m not interested in providing more details about it than I already have. Suffice it to say it was close enough […]

How Special Is It?
In a recent blog post I wrote: Another factor that is true for me that isn’t universally true for other players is that I have the ability to figure out and master strategies and I enjoy doing so. Thinking about, writing about, studying, and playing video poker occupies a much larger part of my waking […]
