After the rebirth of old TV Shows like The Bionic Woman, Hawaii 5-0 and Battlestar Gallactica, many of you have been clamoring for a rebirth of Wonder Woman. You clamored even more when you heard it was on the table. Well, finally, it appears that the project is going to happen. It was just announced that NBC has decided to give the show a go. The project is being touted as a reinvention (Yikes, that is almost never good) of the Amazon Princess, where Wonder Woman, also known as
By the end of the night I was half-drunk (maybe a little more) on tequila and playing the role of the house in a game of low-stakes blackjack in an effort to keep the people drunker than me from driving home. I had my $100 in winnings in my pocket and no fear of the sunrise. Which was a good thing, because the sunrise was coming on like a plump girl at closing time. Looking back at the past ten hours, it was a
What’s crazy is that I barely understand the rules of the game. Somebody called it Rich Man’s Pai Gow. And yeah, I know the concept behind all of it, but I wouldn’t sit down and play for $5 a point, let alone risking my bankroll ten or fifteen hands. Of course, these guys aren’t risking their bankroll. These guys are all millionaires. In some cases, they are millionaires many times over. What’s more, these guys think they have an edge on each other. Somebody

I worked on applying the adjusted tournament strategy I have been considering at an Casino Malaysia game last night. It seemed to work very well for the early rounds – but also, I did feel I was somewhat lucky hitting hands as well. By the end of Level 3 I was the overall chip leader, with 15,500 while the stack average was about 3,000. I was limping in with the following hand selection: – Any small pair – Any suited 1 or 2 gap
Blackjack, also known as Twenty-one and Pontoon, is the most widely played casino bank game in the world. The ease of learning coupled with the slim house edge make Blackjack appealing to gamblers of all experiences. The precursor of Blackjack was a game called simply “Twenty-one” although the exact origins of the game are unknown. A short story written between 1601 and 1602 by Spanish novelist Miguel de Cervantes contains the first known written reference of the game, in which the main characters are a couple of cheaters working in Seville who are experts in cheating at “veintiuna” which is Spanish for twenty-one. In the story, the game was played with a Spanish deck of cards known as Baraja, that is without any tens in it and the object of the game was to reach 21 points without busting. Players could also count Aces as either 1 or 11 points, which is very similar to the Blackjack played now. The age of the book goes to show the game was played in Spain in the early 17th Century. When the game of 21 was introduced in the United States of America, it was not very well received. Gamblers enjoyed the games already on offer and were reluctant to try this newcomer. In order to attract customers, gambling

I had my $100 in winnings in my pocket and no fear of the sunrise. Which was a good thing, because the sunrise was coming on like a plump girl at closing time. Looking back at the past ten hours, it was a surprise that anybody survived. Of course, this was how the CJ IS LEAVING GOODBYE TOURNEY ended. To tell the whole story would be too frightening and might open up three TV stations to lawsuits. Instead, the highlights: * The full complement of 16 players was still in the game after about 30 minutes of play. The first all-in showdown: 66 vs. 66. Chopped pot and much screaming ensues. *A couple hours later, as two tables prepared to consolidate to one, there was significant grousing from Table 1. It appeared a hold’em neophyte–certified dead money–had been cleaning the clocks of his opponents. A couple people whispered he slothoki have hustled the room, but I knew better. The man had a horseshoe up his ass the size of South Carolina and it was going to carry him all
If this isn’t enough to convince you to try table games, I don’t know what is. You don’t even have to abandon slots if you love them — but when you need a break from the monotony of slots, trying a table game instead of continuing on a slot binge will save you money. Learning any table game in depth could take a while — 30 minutes to a few hours, depending on the game. But the secret is, learning just the basics is enough to give you way better odds than you’d get on a slot machine. So let’s proceed to the gambling lessons — our handy crash course on casino games. Print Out this Page Print out this page and take it with you to the casino. The casino won’t care. It’s much easier to use this page as a cheat sheet rather than trying to memorize everything. Getting Chips Every table has a minimum bet, indicated by a sign on the table (usually $5 for blackjack). Make sure to read the sign so you don’t buy in at a $25 table when you meant to be at a $5 table. (If you make a mistake and buy in at the wrong table, you don’t have to play there, you can just take your chips to another table,
