Hi Rolex-Watch,

The first time happen when I drove into the parking lot. A van rolled up behind my car to block me and a guy came out from the passenger side, wearing a hoodie and shades, brandishing a gun. The time was shorty after midnight. This all happened in a few seconds. I always have two banks, one with a two hundred dollars in twenties, the other 5,000.00. He demanded money and I gave him the decoy wallet, that was that. They drove away. I reported it to the casino. Big mistake. They checked the cameras and I was in a blind spot. What they said to me was that I did not behave like I was robbed because I was not emotional. A normal person would be yelling and stating frantically "I was robbed." I said to them, I was robbed and I don't want this to happen again to someone else. By the way, I am a poker player who has control over my emotions." They did not believe me and began to accuse me of making this story up because I needed an excuse, for my wife, that I lost my money by being robbed instead of losing it at the casino. What? I was coming to the casino, not leaving. I was detained for hours. They used the good cop bad cop strategy on me. I said to them to either file the complaint, arrest me, or let me go about my business. So, they let me go with a warning, if they find out that I lied, they will press charges.

They second time it happened, I had "sold" a pair of  Paquiao vs Bradley II tickets at the MGM. I was walking back to the strip and was robbed at gun point, part of the side street was dark. I did not have a wallet or bank, just the 2,000.00 I made from the tickets. Needless to say, I did not report the incident.

Being a lone wolf has it's disadvantages. I currently have a gaming partner, and we are always on alert.

Hi The Crow.

Well, maybe next time, avail the VALET SERVICE of casinos. 

I doubt that the valet fee will hurt you because you said 4K to 10K is a walk in the park for you playing roulette. 

I liked your concept of a "decoy wallet." I'll tell this to my kids just in case they will get mug.

Hi Mike.

Thanks for sharing this post.

Life as a Pro Gambler is possible if you have: 1) the gambling funds, 2) the mental & physical toughness, and 3) a solid system of play.

When I say gambling funds, these are funds solely for your gambling activities. Not money to be paid for bills...food...rent...mortgage...tuition...etc. In this way, the psychological pressure of your daily needs will not distract you from your gambling activities. A bankroll of at least 1,000 units could give you a very good advantage over your chosen casino table game.

Unknown to many, gambling is a very stressful activity both mentally & physically. Have you tried playing 6-8 hours of your favorite casino table game, 5 to 6-times a week, for 1 whole month under a smoking environment?

A solid system of play prolongs your bankroll under the worst possible table conditions. So, when the favorable conditions come, you can easily recover & profit at the same time.

If you satisfy these three requirements, then, you can commend yourself for being the very few who gambles for a living.

Roulette is just you against the wheel.

...and against the "dealer's throw."

Somebody made a very good article about this so-called "dealer's throw" on the roulette wheels and how it affects the outcomes.

Once I found it again on the web, I will post it.
