Quite possible he was an AP. Actually, he kept asking the dealer what he should do on all the other rounds and the dealer kept telling him “Sir, the book says...” and he would follow her advice until that play.

I tried Price line, booking.com and hotels.com and they kept showing “sold out” for all of the motels under $150 in various towns (MN, Prior Lake, the town where Treasure Island is located, etc). Thanks for the tip, I will get the hotelTonight App.

Just returned home having left at 7:00 a.m., there. I know it’s quite easy to guess the casinos I played in and I played rated in the one where I stayed. I was losing, the comp was an attraction. However, don’t plan on going there any time over the next 7+ cold months there.
