This is probably not new to many of you but...

I have nailed the shift change time down at my local casino and have used it to my advantage a bit already. I also used it in conjunction with when a dealer goes on break.
What I did was ask the pit just after shift change to put me down for another $200. They gladly put it in making it look like I have bought 800.00 worth of chips thus far instead of $600.00. At the next shuffle of when I ask them to hold my spot and take my chips with me as I hit the restroom. When I come back... I pull out my chips minus $100 or so and start playing. Now I am looking three hundred to the negative If they check my chips. When it comes time to leave and I color up I can use this to make a winning session look like break even of negative session.

My session wins are sitting at about $300.00 to $350 (Not large amount but I am happy since I have only been playing at real tables for 3 weeks) and in the three different sessions I am now up $1000. One of the pit bosses knows me as a business owner and made it a point to check it with me by name. I don't consider this any type of heat but just in case I hit a 14 vs 6 after some "thought" while sitting in third base makeing some higher bet players at the table quite frustrated that I took the dealer bust card. The dealer busted anyway.. lol.. and I came out looking like the chump that lost. The pit boss then asked how I was doing.. I told him I was down 3 or 4 hundred Which was the $200.00 they had me down for and the $100 in my pocket. He tells me.. "You'll win it back." I shrug and say maybe. Later I color up my $850... Dealer calls black going out or something like that. The boss comes over to verify and approves the dealer. I tell the boss he was right and that I better stop since "I am up 50 and I owe my wife dinner at the buffet and that the $50 will cover that... unless he wants to comp me dinner so I can give an extra $50 to my wife for slots. No comp... yet but he knows what I want.
