a funny story i was going to post on another forum where they wouldnt know who i was

 This is a hard blog to write, because it doesnt put me in a very good light. But this happened about a week ago and i just never got around to writing it up. I got banned from a casino in deadwood theres not really any reason to go in, but to check a zodiac lion machine and a scarab maybe. 

i dont remember which day this was, but i think i was either stuck a few hundred that day, or had given back a large profit to where i hadnt hardly won anything that morning before i went to the Gold Dust casino. it was about 5-7am in the morning, and i went inside to see if there was a decent number of squares left lit on the zodiac lion or not. theres been times in deadwood i found so many squares lit at one of the 3 places that has it, i knew i was going to win $20-40 no matter what or more. but i didnt see nothing worth playing that morning and i lost about $10 playing it when i really shouldnt have because not enough were lit up. 

and on the way out the door i decided to walk over to the scarab grand, though theres never anything left on it, except for one time, which surprised me. and as i was getting off it, i saw a guy carrying a big cardboard cutout advertising some type of casino promotion, and i asked him why he was staring at me like im some sort of mental health retard, (which i feel people do all the time and is rude) and it makes me uncomfortable. then the guy asked me if i was "looking for tickets" left on machines, and i thought that was even more rude and was basically accusing me of being a thief when im one of the most honest people there is, so much so ive returned money and other items ive found people leave behind here in deadwood, (remember the taxicab incident). 

so my autism causes me to think, if this guy is being rude to me, what is the most rude thing i can say to him in return? for this is the way people are to me all the time on my blog and twitter, and i have been taught to behave this way by other people. I know its not how Jesus would want me to handle the situation, but its just human nature and this employee took it way out of proportion to not just let it go, and chalk it up to a bad day. 

so i asked him if his mother was a whore, and it turns out he is the main boss at that time of the morning, and he asked a security person that was about 20 feet away in the next room to throw me out. and then he left and the only person i could talk to instead of him was the security supervisor who worked that morning. who told me he would find out the full story later and would tell him the way i seen it. 

that being said, im overall in a pretty good mood, for i am still doing well here in deadwood, especially to be at $27,500 now having only arrived in deadwood with $18900. most all the winnings are from the vbj machines. 

hotel prices are decreasing for the winter too. though i will no longer have my place at the deadwood dicks available since they are shutting down for remodeling by the new owners taking control on dec 1, the gold country inn which was $334 a week, i noticed it on priceline for $175 plus taxes for a little over $210 total. thats a big difference from over 4-5 weeks ago. and several other places arent too bad either, though some are actually about $100 a week more if u include the resort fees.

okay, now to get to the title of this post. does anyone know a forum called Vegas message boards, or have an account there with any sort of pull? for if so, i would love it if someone would show this blog to a moderator there. i tried to post this funny story as my first initial post as a joke and entertaining story, and was posting it under the newly created screen name of Sidney Powell. and it was never posted, and i found out i got banned for "trolling" and it really irritates me, because i was given no warning, and now i cannot even read the forums at all since im banned. at least on 2p2 they would give u a warning or u log off which still enables u to read the forums if banned.

I've had good luck playing BJ elsewhere, so on a recent trip to Las vegas decided to see how i did here. and as usual since i can count down a 6 deck or 8 deck shoe without any errors in the count or in how to play the hands correctly, i was playing my usual game. I like the fact there are less players to a table now than before the coronavirus. But i noticed something weird going on.

Now i usually win about a few thousand or so a month when i play Blackjack over the course of many many hours. and my normal minimum bet is usually $5 or $10, (the table minimum) and my max bet like 3 spots of $200 each or 2 spots of $300, regardless of how high the count gets or how much im up or down, or what the table max is.

and I was slowly raising my bets during good counts, but the good counts were so few are far between it seemed like every shoe the first hand off the top of the shoe the running count immediately went highly negative and stayed that way throughout much of the entire shoe, and this was happening so many shoes in a row that i never got any decent counts to raise the bets. I dont want to name any casinos, but lets just say i was in a casino far enough removed from its neighbors i couldnt have easily switched games because i wasnt in a main tourist location because i liked this hotel better.

I think this casino must be cheating, because i ended up losing all my money and also about another 40% of my net worth. and that was money i withdrew while here that i didnt bring in cash because i didnt want to carry over $10,000 on a plane. Here is how i think the casino is cheating. I think it must be adding a ton of extra face cards to the deck, just to make sure every shoe starts off with a massive negative count to keep you from ever having a chance to raise your bet from the minimum. out of about 50 shoes, i only found 4 with positive counts, and the other 46 all had a big negative count, which should be mathamatically impossible in a count just as likely to be plus 1 as minus 1 in theory.

on those 4 shoes i lost a massive amount, because i was so eager to finally bet big, i bet a little too high according to Kelly's criterion. And i wanted to win too and was in the hole a bunch. and on all the other shoes i was losing so much a tiny bit at a time. i ever felt like the correct way to play would be to bet big off the top of the shoe, for one reason its great cover so the pit boss doesnt know u are counting, and also, it would be the ONLY time the whole shoe i wouldnt be in the middle of a massive negative count.

its a shame the casino would be so dishonest as to do this to purposively keep the count highly negative to discourage counters, but how else can u explain so many massive negative shoes in a row? the odds of a 52 card random deck without some extra 10s in it would be astronomical?

A bitter disappointment

 dont let the title worry u, i did NOT take a big drop on VBJ like u might have thought from reading the title and be down below 20k again, although i am certainly overdue for it to happen soon. cant believe i am close to 23k from the 18900 i came with once down to around 15k

I know better than to play at Cadillac instead of saloon 10, but on wednesdays theres never a game, even though they have a dealer sit there waiting. so i had to go to cadillac if i wanted a chance to play live poker. so far my win rate there before tonight was 2 times out of 11 visits. 

i am very concerned that its not only choctaw and deadwood where i cant win, it will be anywhere in the country, including florida, because all the players i could beat are no longer playing due to the virus and its only those grinding out a living. whenever i get to visiting florida i hope to find out im wrong. airbnb is cheaper this year than last year. and i know the only reason it would be is because of the virus, less people are going outside their homes. but i actually am surprised there isnt a lot MORE people going to florida to be away from democratic governors and their restrictions. lots of people would be wanting to move i would think to where they would have a more normal life. especially since Republicans will be wanting to flee in droves if Biden wins the presidency. 

Biden sure wasnt lying when he said they built the largest voter fraud organization in history. But he did lie about a lot of other things. 

i bought in for $100 in the $3-100 spread limit game and i had been winning pots and feeling really good since i have had so much bad luck here during the month or so ive been in town. id tipped the dealer $3 twice instead of $1 or $0 and i was all the way up to $359. and i was considering moving to the smaller table or leaving altogether, but there was no seat open there but i wanted to lock up the profit to be safe and to have a win locked up emotionally. 

thats the biggest win ive had in here by far on this trip.

but then i raise to $25 preflop with 99 and get one caller who either limped UTG or was in the BB. its also possible he straddled UTG. i dont pay enough attention. 

flop comes 983 with 2 spades and he bets $45. im praying to God he flopped a set or an overpair instead of having a flush draw to seriously cut down on the number of outs. its an asian guy who i think ive seen before who doesnt exactly live here since hes staying in the hotel. i bet $145 and he bets $245, and im thinking oh shit, he is not going to fold. i know maybe im supposed to not want him to fold, but theres so much in the pot im better off locking up the profit. so i get the entire $359 in on the flop. ask if he will run it twice so i can be protected against the flush draw and he declines. and sure enough im fucked he has AK of spades for a draw instead of a set or overpair like i hoped. the turn made his flush and the board would not pair and i am suddenly extremely pissed off. for not quitting, not trying to move tables and because he declined running it twice. he must of known i had top set or he wouldnt have declined.

having a terrible time surviving in deadwood without losing big on VBJ, but where else can i go during the election?

 the poker sucks here and i cant win at cadillac jacks, and the virus have basically killed live poker all over the country. even in Houston i shouldve won much easier than i was, and im wondering if Florida is still a decent place to win in. i never realized i was so awful when i play shorthanded. or how lousy i play if im ahead and scared of losing it back. even in VBJ, i bet way too little on good counts when ahead and way too much on neutral or too small of negative counts when behind. kind of like shoving too loosely when behind at poker. 

i was stuck over $900 at one point on vbj today and couldve lost a lot more since i was carrying $3100 eventually i quit up a bit less than $100.

i did find one good online site where i can win at and has the type of games id like to play. id rather not mention just yet which site it is. but my $10 deposit is up to $37 now and i am the type of person who never wins online since i wont use a HUD or play more than 1 table. (very rarely 2). its a poker site.

i am in the exact same room in deadwood i was in a few years ago at the deadwood dicks thats like an apt for a very low price. huge fridge, microwave and dishes provided in the kitchen. sad thing is i had to move out over halloween because it was booked and pay more over the 2 day weekend than i paid for the whole week. and ill have to do the same thing this weekend, then its available til dec 4, when the entire place is sold and shut down for remodeling so the new owners can raise the price for rooms tenfold when they finished remodeling in a few months. 

at least this fridge stores milk without ruining the milk. first time ive seen that in a long time. usually its either way too frozen or spoils. 

I still need to get out of here, before i lose any more money. ive got $16,500 left of the $18,900 i came here with. i guess thats not too bad when over $1500 has been spent on housing, and over $500 paying Vince. considering i lost $900 on poker at cadillac jacks, actually very little was lost on VBJ and had i never played in the Bullock, id be way ahead on vbj from playing at the DMG. i did win a few hundred off the info ive gotten before from Mickey Crimm.

also lost a bunch of money playing machines when theyre not lit up good enough but i suspected they mightve been. probably wishful thinking on my part. 

if anyone wants to hear a good man of God, check out the teachings of JD Farag on youtube. now there is a man who is going to heaven when the rapture takes place when Joel Osteen will be wondering why he was left behind. Jan Markell from Minneapolis is good too and so is pastor Jack Hibbs out in california. 

the Bible says we will be known as Christians because of our love for one another, and i need a lot of work on this, for im so bitter in life (never having a woman to hug me kiss me and say she loves me) its very difficult for me to love anyone as evil and retarted as 95% of the people are. i worry all the time i wont go up in the rapture and sometimes im wondering if the president will and if he really is saved. although he cares a lot about Christians and their civil rights. ive never met a president who cares so much for the little people and has so much compassion for people with disabilities or for people who arent white. examples of his good deeds for those who need help can easily be found online. he doesnt talk about his salvation the way Mike Pence does. 

i worry there will be widespread violence and civil war after trump wins and i am not happy i missed the chance to double my money with big bets on his reelection but i do not trust anyone to pay me after i won the bet and it might take a few weeks before its settled. id love to return to houston or fort lauderdale but it might not be safe in the big cities for a while until we determine exactly whats going to happen. and until we find out who wins the senate and the house. whether Pelosi will remain the speaker. 

i wonder if ill be awake the right hours today for the stud hilow game at saloon ten and if we can get a fourth player to start the game?

i wish i could be with Ray when he visits south bend for poker on friday. i hear its a good cheap game, $50-200 for $1-2NL and $100-300 for $1-2-5 PLO. he delayed it to friday from tuesday because he is going to have more money this way since hes doing jobs for his family.
