Played at the local store for a weekend and won both sessions the first day chatting with dealers and the pits while having fun with table mates. On my return the next day a new female pit was watching me closely. The other pit knew me from the day before and was chatting and joking around, but miss chin up, sour puss was having none of my chat. What to do? I knew the heat was on and thought leaving might get me barred on another return so I remained to bet 1-2 spread. I looked around for my wife and turned away from the table to chat with a friendly dealer at the adjacent table because her table was empty. I did get the friendly pit involved with our chat also. I made sure that I wasn’t watching the cards, or so it looked that way. I was ready to take a small loss, but I won another 700. I played my usual 40-45 minutes and asked for a dinner comp. I made sure I didn’t rathole this session or leave the table as I always do in minus counts. She never made a call or moved much so I doubt the eye had me. if the eye had me, there was nothing I did to get me in trouble. I was fortunate the counts were mostly plus. I did win in negative counts too.
I doubt they have ever counted me down. I don’t think she did this time, but I think she was waiting for a good bet ramp which never happened. I made sure it was my last session. Although I think I pulled it off. I might be pushing my stay at the only place I can go unless I travel 6-7 hours. I ran into another miss sour puss at MB in Vegas this year. There I just left. I wasn’t going to bet 1-2 when there are sooooo many games and stores.
I am hoping this was good for me and not the start of them counting me down. No one plays anon at this store and if you are slow giving up your card, they make it seem like you have to. I have also not met one pit or dealer who knows BS, but they are mostly friendly with the pits having BS cards in their pockets to let players know what to do if asked. I have never seen a counter there so I doubt they are on high alert.
