Was cruising through the threads to see if there was something I could use recently and saw this one.

I've had a BetUS account for like forever but hardly used it as it didn't have any live dealer games up until awhile ago.

Once I knew that I went back in last month to see what they offered.

Well, it appears that FreshDeck Studios and/or LuckyStreak studios is now running their live dealer games.

You have to sift through the chaff of flashy display icons and search around but eventually you do find the actual live dealer games and NOT the automated ones or RNG type games.

Played a few weeks on the baccarat tables and enjoyed it.

Currently working on the roulette tables of which they have several that work well with my style of play and the timing is acceptable.

I still can't understand some of the female croupiers as English probably isn't their primary language, but they get by.

I haven't noticed anything suspicious for now and I do tend to keep track of background activity to see if anything duplicates over the days played.

So, for now I've got BetUS and BetPhoenix as my two primary live dealer casinos and surprisingly have had both of them for over a decade!

Had to make a run to the German Consulate in Miami and figured I could add a trip to the Hollywood Hard Rock casino.

Well that didn't work out due to weather and really horrible Miami traffic so I shuffled off to US41 up the west coast of Florida to avoid the interstate for awhile.

And then I run up on this beauty deep in the swamp land!

Triple zero wheels are an abomination.

Quad zero, or whatever they're disguising it as, is just outright greed.

Well it's that time of the year again.  The National Felons League is on TV and that gives me a reason to get out of the office and make some friendly wagers online and with friends.

As the first week of the season is always a pain to bet on, I went with a tried and true favorite to give me a win.

I took the Bungles giving points to the Brownies.   The Browns never let me down.  They NEVER cover in Week 1.

Uh, wrong.   They covered the spread this week.  This never happens!

Oh well, luckily for me my online book also has a live casino available so I took the loss over to the casino and got that money back on the roulette and baccarat tables.

So, going into the 2nd week of the season, my bankroll is back where it belongs and knowing that I can take the loss from Sunday and pick it up on Monday is nice!

Very interesting.

Thanks.

It's funny that you mention the "table wash" of the cards at the start of the day.

I used to see that a lot but now that I think about it, I haven't actually seen it in a long time at my local casino.

When I would be the only person at the table and a new set of cards came out I could sit right there and watch it right in front of me and usually the dealer would also let me place the cut card when they were ready!!

That hasn't happened in a long time but then, I don't get into the casino early enough to see if they even do that anymore.

Somewhere in one of these Roulette areas is a discussion about stadium type roulette using a live wheel but wagering on individual terminals that you sit down to.   I can't find it so I'll start this thread here.

The "common" complaint is that the wheel is rigged because it knows who the large bettor is and tends to cause that player to lose due to some sort of electronic skullduggery and manipulation of the wheel, ball, air and all sorts of things.

Well, the other day I was the previously mentioned "big bettor" at the table and evidently nobody threw the switch to make my larger wagers lose.  I was the big guy about 85% of the time with the normal wagers and every now and then a larger wager was called for.

They all won. 

When I hit my target for the day I cashed out, took my voucher and left.  Two of the guys who were also on the table asked why I was leaving after continuing to win.   

Told them it was time for lunch.  The casino has a Deli to die for with a corned beef sandwich to make New Youk wish they could be there.

Anyway, it was a very good testing session and I picked up another small idea to help things along.

Live play is always a good crucible for serious testing.  Can't cheat or fudge the results when you've got real money out there, right?

Quote from: Albalaha on July 26, 2025, 03:44:55 AMHmm. Captain you still have the piece of pi, I guess. Keep it as long as possible.

And that there is the problem with the Bitcoin world.  Most people buy Bitcoin (using real money) and then just sit on it hoping it goes up.  It's not actually being used for anything, it's just held. 

And as the majority of buyers have the "Fear of Missing Out" syndrome, they buy right into the play never thinking about when to sell and get "real money" for doing useful things.

I am by no means any kind of expert on crypto currency at all.  Other than my previously mentioned drunken speculation with my buddies, I hold no crypto at all and have no real interest in it.

There are better places to put your money for an "investment" and plenty of other places for good returns on that investment.

It's just not for me but I do enjoy reading about future returns in many of the financial reports.  It should prove interesting moving forward.

Nice day for a ride so I made the hour ride down to the Immokalee casino and was pleasantly surprised to see that they've added two live craps tables and two live roulette wheels in addition to the previously mentioned stadium type roulette and craps.  This is a good thing for the casino and players I believe.

Anyway, as the summer rains were holding off I took the bike down.

My reply is self deleted.

I just saved myself a lot of grief for sure.

OK, finally took another look at the Molley thing.

Not impressed.

It needs to hit a single dozen to produce a profit while putting up an inordinate amount of money that isn't being put to work.

Two of the columns/dozen appear to produce zero or a total loss.

The wager methods do take some time to learn to be quick and smooth but overall there are better "dozen" type plays out there.

Just my two cents worth of an opinion on this one but thanks for bringing it up.

AD

Wow.

Could they put any more advertising on that web page?

AD

Aha!

Yellow sports cars you say?

When I first met my wife in the early 70's, this was her ride.

A blast to tool around with but you froze your butt off in the winter as the heater pretty much only kept the ice off the windshield and that was about it.

A really fun sports car though.

QuoteFor example, with a $50 betting round:

$30 on Banker
$20 on Player
Outcomes:

Banker wins: Profit $30 – 5% commission – $20 = $8.50
Player wins: Profit $20 – $30 = -$10
Tie: Both bets push, no gain or loss
This system produces a small profit more than half the time but still has a negative expectation over time.

Wow.

This is what is passing for valuable system play now?

Why not just wager the $10 net on Bank and take a $9.50 profit on a Bank win?

You lose $10 on the Player win either way, you just "pay" more with their method.

Weird.

Over 100 triple zero tables!!!!

Yes, most gamblers are clueless and are not students of the games.

The fact that there are more than two of those tables shows how poor the level of play really is with most people.

Simply incredible.
