    "That's the way to defeat them."

    Just to be clear, is that some sort of beneficial objective? To DEFEAT the rich? Do us a favor, please; keep the politics out of this.

    Employees yes, patrons optional. If playing a game without a mask, the patrons are now questioning why!

    Played craps and blackjack in local casino (not strip or downtown), moderate crowd and protection measures felt, at best, insincere. At least, they were way better than what I watched in the riots and demonstrations across America.

    All of them in both places were gambling.
    Luck is nothing more than probability taken personally!

    Politics? I was quoting strategies for competitive endeavors in the world. Like business and finance.

    Yes, my mistake. I keep forgetting that feature here. They don't have it at BJ21, so I sometimes mix up the two.

    id like to know if people have found it harder or easier to win at live BJ since the reopenings. and where people have found the smallest minimum bet in a 3-2 game. i would think harder because if the $5 min bet is suddenly $25, a lot of people wouldnt have enough betting units anymore, and if the did it would be more emotionally stressful since we arent robots. also, the higher limits are more closely watched too.

    if any casinos have newly installed a dealers angels machine id like to know that too.

    AP's have knowledge working for them and one part of that knowledge is having the discipline to know exactly what games they can afford to play. If after arriving at a casino and there is nothing worthwhile for the AP to play at her/his level they should rightfully head right back to their car. Playing emotionally stressful is not in an AP playbook. After plenty of practical playing experience an AP does in fact play like a robot.

    The person you're responding to is a low limit poker grinder who is not an AP at all but thinks he is.
    He is a complete emotional train wreck tilt monkey who is scared to push legitimate edges if he's winning money but will fire off big bets regardless of the count or risk of ruin when he's stuck. He'll also try and do things like martingale negative ev games. He'll blame people who walk by him when he's losing for "making" him lose more. If he goes somewhere that used to have a beatable machine (not that he could beat it in most cases) he will play negative ev machines to try and get even if he lost in poker that day.

    He is without a doubt down piles of money lifetime at casino table games and machines.

    I'm part of a few of those Facebook groups for counters (which in reality just attracts all sorts of degenerates). One person has claimed that they went to EC recently and dealers were instructed to shuffle up after 2 rounds on their SD game, even heads up. They're also asking players to play double the min if spreading to 2 boxes. Can anyone verify that?

    buffets too - they may never return - my opinion
    Some buffets have returned. But in different style. The customers cannot touch the food any more. The servers are putting food onto customer's plate. Each server is responsible for two or three dishes. Customers still need to separate from each other for safe six feet social distance, so the line is long and moving very slowly. The additional hired servers who just put food on your plate will cost you more money to eat buffet.
