  • I would like to thank all BT handicappers who cite rotatiion numbers. Very professional and considerate.
  • "The right action arises by itself" i.e. Wed. CBB=3-1
  • BK-Quote from Lao-tzu's Tao Te Ching which is the most widely translated book in world literatue, after the Bible. "Do you have the patience to wait till your mud settles and the water is clear? Can you remain unmoving till the right action ari…
  • This BP post somewhat reminds me of Hunter S. Thompson's book "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" minus the illegal drugs.
  • I would mention it to whomever recommended this "stiff" to you in the first place. DO NOT ask the recommender to do anything. You are just making a casual comment. You've got "class".
  • Is this referriing to the Dallas Mavs or N.O.. Why is N.O. referred to as "Pelicans"? Thanks
  • I've always wondered why the player at first base, who makes a poor choice, is seldom chastised! I like playing third base since I then get to see more cards that may alter my count. At the crap table severe criticism usually results if a player tos…
  • I don't think that a player at a "21" table who is not playing basic strategy negatively impacts the overall results. However, "third base" not playing basic strategy can be a bit unsettling. Perhaps OT will agree with this.
  • The pick was Cal Santa Barbara. However the write-up, citing a significant injury to USSB's leading scorer and rebounder. seems to make a case to play Cal State Northridge. Please clarify. Thank you.
  • OT-Pardon me for being "off subject". Curious if the slang "jam-up" and "lost wages" from the 60's were still being used in Vegas!!
  • Which book lists that prop? Thanks
  • This change was reported by BT member Born Winner. Does it reflect an unchallenged reality?
  • So Cowherd is now on Seahawks? Changed from Atlanta? His site still lists Atlanta as his pick. What is his factual pick. Thank you
  • I'm a fan of the "Virgin Shooter". However, I have never succeeded in finding one. Also it is a dificult question to ask. "Are you a virgin shooter"?
  • In regards to "clutter" perhaps BT could put "Good Luck" next to the "Thanks".
  • Why are the other 6 NOT lined games?
  • Do you know why books are only listing one CBB line tonight even though there are 7 CBB games. Thank you in advance.
  • Friday 11 AM Eastern Time. ESPN
  • The title of this thread is inappropriate!
  • (Quote) Narcissistic sarcasm intended to belittle as well as amuse is generally motivated by a need to draw attention to oneself.
  • Thank you for the rotation numbers.
  • Am I correct that this Ohio St. line was -3.5 and now is +1??
  • chuckh, OT was not referring Zelda's aggravations to Binion's Horseshoe. Maybe the "Nugget".

  • OT...Maybe we need a Vegas memories thread. There is nobody I know anymore that can talk like this. Maybe some BT members can remember some of the "bust out" joints in TN outside of Gatlinburg or the rise and fall of Havana casinos. Or som…

  • I and many other dealers used to rent apts. next to the Landmark. So did the show-girls. I'll never forget the scene and opportunity's at the pool. The Landmark burned and that was also the end of the pool scene.

  • Legend has it that Benny Binion "off'd" 9 guys. I think in TX. I have never heard that story you mentioned. Mr. Binion used to spend most of his time in the cafe. Jack ran the "joint". I got to say "hello" to Mr. Binion…

  • OT, thanks for the Vegas topic. In the early 60's I dealt single deck "21" at the Nevada Club (Blackie Dardeen), then to Binion's (Benny Binion and his son Jack) and then to the Stardust. It didn't seem like work and the "show-girls&q…

  • Thank you OBI for your relevant and classy post. A well-balanced observation free of prejorative expressions that rely on foul language, negativity, contempt or distaste.
  • Will there be a run on the Books similar to the run on banks in 1929? I am fairly nervous about my $ in off-shore books. On a fairly positive note I did eventually (9 months) receive my $ in relation to the Neteller situation.
  • The "mob" used to run illegal casinos, the numbers racket, loan sharking and extortion. Now casinos are legal in most states and on Indian land, the lottery replaced the numbers racket, quick cash for high interest shops replaced loan shar…
