    There exist instances where, what may seem to be, paranoia is, indeed, a useful mental state.

    Anyways, I knew the camera would follow me, or suspected. Took a cab to I think Tropicana - went to their over priced gift shop - bought a tee shirt and ball cap - took a cab back and went back to our room.

    Next morning, bypassed MB restaurants forfeiting the last of our food credits, had my wife cash out the balance of chips while I waited in my car rental in the valet area - which reminds me - rental contract does not stay in the car, especially if you’re using valet.
    Why did you do this if you don't consider yourself some kind of criminal?

    These forums should have taught you something……hmmmm……….Comped, staying free at the hotel with meals, playing unrated, no rated play, hotel eviction late at night, health issues having to struggle with packing (twice), possible credit card charge for full value of rooms and meals, etc etc.

    Lesson for all - Dont play where you stay. Tuscany has nice clea big rooms at reasonable rates, lousy sweatshop casino. No need to eat at their smoke stenches restaurant.

    There is a Stations casino I have stayed at 5 or 6 days a month fully comped for the last 4 years, winning $70k from blackjack at the same casino during that time. Still able to stay and play there. I know that in the long term this can't work out without kinks, but the long term is a taking a while, and in the meantime I'm doing profitably well in several respects.

    Chaconne - you commented several months ago that you were doing a GWAE episode. Did it happen yet? If so, when?

    I bailed for the time being. Nervous about game exposure. Will do one with Colin before I get to Munchkin. (Different handle.)

    I will. It's hard to justify these things unless you're promoting a book or documentary. There are few if any benefits that come with being interviewed about AP work.
