    Tattoos and unrated play

    Total newbie here with my first post. I'm currently in the early stages of drilling BS and practicing keeping count. I have spent a total of 16 hours playing BS at very low stakes unrated in casinos just to develop comfort with the culture. I plan to play rarely just to continue to learn gambling culture for cover while honing my skills and perfecting my play. I have good people skills and effortlessly talk to pit boss and dealer as well as "ploppies" as I've seen them called. To get to the point of this thread, when I inevitably return to the felt with winning intent, is it wise to cover my tattoos (arms are covered) with long sleeves? My instinct says yes, but I'd like to get some opinions from experienced players and find out if anyone suspects they have been ID'd via their ink.

    Looking forward to absobing the wisdom within these threads,

    A fried food addict

    If one of your tatoos is Ed Thorp or Don Schlesinger, I suggest to cover it

    LOL, they are not but I'm afraid one is large, unique, and easily recognizable to someone with knowledge of the subject.

    If anything I think they would help you.
    If you have neck tattoos even better.
