Gamblers are Colourful Characters

18 August 2010

In a rare moment of spare time the other day, I decided I’d play around in MS Paint. I know, dull, dull, dull, and nowhere near as exciting as a few hours beating casino blackjack! But it’s important to have a variety of hobbies / activities in life to balance the gambling, [...]

Land Based Casinos Tightening Up – Again

20 June 2010

I’ve written on and off for several months now about how land-based casino operations seem to be increasingly tightening up their value to players over time. This can happen in many ways: removal of free drinks while gaming; reduction in food offered free to VIP players; [...]

Apologies For My Absence

7 June 2010

Some of you may notice that it’s been about a month since my last blog post. My apologies for that. I know from the many emails I receive that many visitors here have become regular readers – and I do try to keep writing informative and new emails as much as possible. After [...]

1 May 2010

I was shocked today to discover that the Crown Casino in Melbourne still allows smoking its Mahogany Room vip area. Wow, that’s really behind the times. Being an internationally rated casino vip player myself (and having been to many casino vip rooms around the world), I’m [...]

Casino Bows To Pressure

29 November 2009

My local casino has finally given in to “player pressure” to make its main casino floor table games more competitive, after trying unsuccessfully to make even more revenue from its loyal player base. About 8 months ago, the main gaming floor moved from 4-deck Continuous [...]

Playtech Casino Bonus Offer

23 November 2009

I’ve noticed a trend with players lately towards the Playtech software casinos. Playtech casino software is (from my own experience) safe, and great fun to play – and many of the casinos offering Playtech casino games via a download offer around 150 exciting table and slot [...]

Paddington Casino (London) Now Closed

22 November 2009

I saw today that the Paddington Casino in London has closed (on about 12 November, 2009). It’s very rare that casinos close down, so I can only assume it wasn’t generating sufficient profits for its owners (Ladbrokes). It was based in one of the London Hilton hotels (part of [...]

Betfair Casino Now Uses Playtech

22 November 2009

Betfair Casino have launched a new DOWNLOAD casino offering, on the very popular and well respected Playtech software platform. Playtech is used by many online casinos (including Mansion Casino – $300 Bonus and Casino.com – $200 Bonus) as it offers a wide range of games, [...]

Casino Changing Comps Policy

13 October 2009

Our local casino changed their comps policy recently. To their credit, they did put advertising and brochures around the casino about the changes, but I doubt most people really took the information in. The devil was in the details. Up until recently, the casino gave most players 1 point [...]

Wish Me Luck – Playing Poker

28 May 2009

Now I’m not a huge fan of poker. It’s not because I don’t like the game – I do. But I just feel its unfair to take money off other people in order for me to win. I prefer house banked games like blackjack and baccarat, played against large casino corporations, who [...]

SkyCity Auckland – Sammy’s Bar

28 May 2009

I visited Auckland New Zealand recently and visited the large SkyCity Casino that is in the middle of the city. Wow, it’s quite a big place. Nowhere near as luxurious as many of the casinos I’ve played in throughout the world (Monte Carlo, Las Vegas, Reno, Atlantic City, [...]

Beat Those Casinos!

28 December 2008

In this article, we’re going to investigate the basic principles that will decide whether or not you’re able to beat the casinos. As my first real name is David, and casino gambling is a bit like fighting a David and Goliath battle, I’ve called these basic principles [...]
