    Playing after 1.2 year ban at property. What's too much?

    Hey guys, long time no see. It's been quite some time since I've posted. The last time was regarding setting up a team (while we have trained, we still haven't fully put money together as a collective). Though I've counted with a few of them on the side.

    Anyways, I've returned to a particular property where it's been 1.2 years since my ban and last play. I've returned recently and played for 1.5 hours and won approx $4k+ with my friend while everyone is betting $10-50 max.

    My friend said this time around, every two weeks we go. Don't push it. Yet we find ourselves returning within 4 days. We went on a Friday. Now we going on a Tuesday. Is this okay after 1.2 years?

    Or paranoia after all my bans?

    IF you were really barred from play 1.2 years ago,
    as you are stating, they never would have let you
    play for 1.5 hours and win >$4,000.

    Playing for 5 minutes or 5 hours and losing from
    $10 to $10,000 changes nothing.


    Perhaps you do not know what it means to be "86'd",
    "backed-off" "trespassed", etc.

    Let's be clear about this. Describe what actually happened.

    Edited and removed paragraphs. God you come off as a smart ass. I wonder.


    But since I like to win. There's a big difference between being banned from playing blackjack and being 86'ed. Someone who has been here for 7 years should know better.

    Thus read what I wrote. I said I was banned. It's not hard to play blackjack while still being banned.

    Traditionally I refer to being asked not to play blackjack as being "backed off" but when I am told to never return to the casino I call that being "banned".

    You can be backed off and "your action is no longer welcomed" may not be exchanged. I have had backoffs where they just told me to leave.

    Then there are situations where I've been told, I am no longer allowed to play blackjack, but feel free to play the slots. This is where you are banned from playing BJ. The above, you are not.

    Then there is an actual 86, where you are read the trespass act.

    Big difference.

    FWIW: I went back because I'm too greedy and bored of poker since my local casino 5/10/20 is drying up (playing any lower is a waste of time). Got 86'ed. Decided to turn it into a road trip hitting a series of casinos. Found somewhere which actually didn't check my ID after I went 200-1 spread. That is not a typo. 200-1 spread. Did 3 rounds of that and left without any heat.
