There is no one I know who appreciates the nuance of language more than my friend Kenny, so this blog is for him:
It has been almost 6 months since the last Vegas trip, long enough that I have recovered from the lack of sleep and am starting to look forward to the next trip.
So much so that I had to buy Hoyle Casino 2007 for my computer. Brief comment on the game, I had the 2000 version and loved it but the game play of this one is really slow. Waiting to get paid after a roll of craps takes longer than in an actual casino (true fact).
Anyways, the game came with a guide book that includes helpful hints on how to learn each casino game.
But, it also has a "Strategies" section which is a riot. I will write them below trying to recreate my best Kenny impression in text.
Roulette:
"It is however, a FACT that winning and losing often takes place in streaks. If you have a system and it's actually working for a period of time, stay in while it lasts, then get out AS SOON as it LOOKS like it's taking a turn for the worse."
Let it Ride (aka Ride or Die):
"Blind luck ASIDE, knowing whether to keep or recall bets is the key to sucess in Let it Ride. In this uncomplicated game, IN FACT, it's the only area in which strategy can make a difference."

Ha ha. I love watching roulette players choosing their numbers. They all stare at the board, waiting for an inspiration to strike them... all the while all the probabilities are against them.
I want to start a game where you pay a dollar... if the coin comes up heads, you get $1.75.
