    Card Count in Caesar's Palace

    The five-down clue in tomorrow's NY Times Sunday crossword puzzle will be "Card Count in Caesar's Palace". Three letters. Any guesses?

    Yep. The clue being that it's Caesar's. Which suggests Roman. Nyne was very close.

    Oh ok, it took me a while to realize why that was the correct answer. Thought the clue said card counting in caesars palace, not card count.

    My question is, how do you know what puzzle will be in tomorrows paper? Are you the puzzle provider?

    That could lead to someone calling you a card counter.

    Most Sunday newspapers are sold on Saturday. I have seen them as early as on 11AM Saturday.
