Yeah, I like to kiss and tell. Part of the fun of blackjack is talking about it. I do understand that some folks like no valuable information be talked about on an open message board, but if that is always the case the message board is probably worthless. Somewhere in between is probably just right.

I did read BoSox’s post criticizing my support of a post that mentioned good pen on a game. I can’t say his concerns are wrong. However, I do know that without little tidbits of information here and there I probably would have never started going to Wendover.

Yeah, I have almost got tarred and feathered a few times over at bj21. I always took the more liberal view on what to disclose and mostly the pros didn’t like it. My disclosures always helped the little guy, who most likely didn’t have access to information like CBJN. In fact, pen is one of the items disclosed in CBJN.

Anyway some information I’m very careful about, but I still have screwed up in this area. Over the years I have come across several good blackjack promotions. Some of the promotions were very good such as 2:1 on blackjack. Other promotions not so good, but I always liked to get feedback on just how good they were.

Here are some of the ways I screwed up. On one promotion, I was very careful not to disclose where it was. However I copied the wording from the flyer word for word to get feedback on how good it was. Well folks pasted my wording in Google and found out where it was. On another promotion I used a completely different handle so no one would know it was me. Still folks found out about it by just recognizing my writing style and once they knew it was me they knew where to look. When I got there all the pros had showed up. And finally just last year or maybe its two years now I posted a flyer that had a picture of an ace of spades and a jack of spades that said blackjack pays double. I assumed you had to have the ace of spades and jack of spades to get the bonus so I asked what folks thought of the flyer. I was too lazy to call the casino and ask about it. When someone suggested I call the casino, I found out it was the real thing, a 2:1 blackjack promotion. I immediately deleted my post which was only up about 6 hours. However, it was too late. This promotion was running for something like 5 months but the very next week they got slaughtered. The promotion was stopped and I never made it there. Live and learn.

BoSox, glad you didn’t leave. Welcome back.
