I turned 74 years old in mid-February. Not a big deal. I have a birthday every year. But this time it turned out to be special in an unusual way. My Nevada Driver License expired on my birthday. Again, not a big deal. It always expires on a birthday, every three or four years. But […]

Who Are the Patrons?
On our February 4 Gambling with an Edge podcast, Anthony Curtis brought up something that I had experienced, but not understood why it was happening.

Two Stories
I have two brief things that came up recently and are worthy of writing about, but neither is sufficient to fill up an entire blog. So, I stacked them together. Hope you don’t mind. New Rules I was playing dollar 9/6 Double Double Bonus, with four progressives. I hit the aces hand for $844 and […]
Using One Strategy for Two Games
