Thread: Strange or not?

    Strange or not?

    I have been backed off now 4 times at the same store, but I have yet to be 86'd. Has anything similar happen to any of you guys? I was of the mindset that they would trespass you eventually after the 1st or 2nd time coming back after being told 'no more blackjack'.. This is beyond weird and awkward everytime I see them back me off.

    Undoubtedly, this casino has a good game or it is local and convenient to you. Either way, nothing good can come of this. If they are allowed to trespass you, it will eventually happen and you will have lost them. It would be best to use a little common sense and give it a breather.

    Have you been backed off from the same store 4 times because of your game, or because you acted in a certain manner? Fire hand experience here, your name comes up enough in a casino, eventually they 86 you, even for some of the smallest reasons.

    Take Bodarc's stellar advice.

    Agree with Bodarc. If you continue to antagonize this casino, they will take extreme measures on you. So I would quit testing their patience and find some other place to play for a while.

    This is casino Russian roulette and you have pulled the trigger 4 times. If you continue, you will find the loaded chamber.
    Luck is nothing more than probability taken personally!

    As I observed, PA casinos don't ban card counters. Actually they welcome card counters. But PA casinos back off people who play with high variance.

    What this means is ...

    Some PA casinos follow the lead of Foxwoods and the Borgata

    and simply will not accept players with good cumulative wins.

    its bjgenius, I don't think many of us will ever follow.

    This sounds like Px, but yeah if they back you off "every time they see you", obviously youre not getting much EV there. You've received good advice already in this thread, I wouldn't say never play there again but a break of at least two years is probably in your best interest if you hope to ever get measurable Ev there again.

    Px presented me with the softest, friendliness back-off that I have received since the early 90's
