    Are they smiling, improving rules to attract the players of closed casinos or tightening up rules?

    Just trying to decide whether I should start planning trips starting next month. Have had my first vaccine shot, second one is due March 1st. Assuming no serious side effects and good health, perhaps take a trip or two. Trying to decide whether I could atleast meet expenses in a trip to Las Vegas....about $600 win 22-25 hour playing trip.

I'm coming up on getting my 2nd dose of the Pfizer vaccine in another week or so, and will have some Ibuprofen standing by.
    The following is from the CDC. dated 1/21/21. https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/covid-1...derations.html. (the quote is in the section on Patient Counseling.)

    Antipyretic or analgesic medications (e.g., acetaminophen, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) may be taken for the treatment of post-vaccination local or systemic symptoms, if medically appropriate. However, routine prophylactic administration of these medications for the purpose of preventing post-vaccination symptoms is not currently recommended, as information on the impact of such use on mRNA COVID-19 vaccine-induced antibody responses is not available at this time.

    Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug.

    I'm hoping the Ibuprofen doesn't cause me to grow a third testicle. Wish me luck!

    How the casinos do it is they improve the rules to attract the players. Then when the players win legitimately or when the outcome is not what they wanted they say the players cheated or it was a fraud. It is well know that some American businessmen, wealthy people, and businesses do that all the time.

    If you look at the graph in this link, you are in decent shape beginning about 14 days after the first jab (what the Brits call it). Of course you should continue with the other protocols--mask wearing, social distancing, etc. Should also get the second dose on time 28 days for Moderna, 21 days for Pfizer. I got my first dose a week ago, so I plan to start venturing out with caution in a week.

    It's getting easier here. We got first doses this week. Walked four blocks, one of a few vaccine sites in walking distance. Waited 10 minutes because they were on lunch break and another 15 minutes of paperwork. I did have to hit F5 (refresh) for ages to find the appointments. I'm not changing my habits. At this point, I'd feel strange without a mask.

    The only problem that I see with a third testicle is potential difficulty using Freightman's FBM ASC. Although a 3rd testicle may be adventitious while using the Advanced version. Hopefully, Freightman will clear it up.

    A third testicle would be very helpful in an 8 deck game

    Since I'm still learning I may be wrong but I think it would be dependent on where it grew..

    A third testicle coming from ones chin might bring attention to a counter. Especially if it's seen aiding in the count. And if you happened to win enough you might have to contact Bob Nersesian as I wouldn't put it past the casinos to argue it was being used as a device.

    First reference I've seen to a Ballchinian.
