    shyboy: Longevity advice request

    Let's say you use a players card at a chain casino where you play and stay (with comps) and assume that they may be compiling info that makes you appear to be an AP suspect. Is there any value in frittering away some winnings on slot machines? By inserting your card, can slot losses offset bj winnings and provide longevity?

    These days virtually all casinos track slot play and table games separately, so slot losses will not offset BJ winnings.

    Playing slots might buy you a little time, especially if it is done on your first few visits to a new casino. In large casinos they probably won't even notice.

    Keep in mind that your slot losses eat into your BJ EV.

    They let you anyway play as long as they want. Coverplay is useless. Play relaxed, have a big enough bankroll, that you even don`t have to play. You should not depend on winnings in terms, that you need money to pay your bills. Show them, that you are the boss and not they.
    When i will nexttime be in Vegas, and they ask me "where are you from? i will answer, "next question please", "are you here on holidays" answer "next question please".
    Same for : how long will you stay? where are you staying?
    Have you been in Vegas before? and all that shit.

    Your longevity is based upon how much or how little you play. No further commentary is necessary. Should they start the soft third degree in an attempt to build a profile, just say; 'you talk like you are on somebody's 'no fly' list.' They will either walk away or throw you out. Either way you are out of the spotlight.

    Can I name a specific store and ask about your experience there?
