Revel Atlantic City Small

The week was a blur as I recovered from a visit from my parents. The only thing that stood out to me, besides Apple releasing an update for the iPhone was that Revel is getting closer and closer to opening. I’m getting more and more stoked about this and think that a trip back east [...]

I was catching up with my news this weekend and came across a quick and funny blog from Stiffs and Georges about Cosmopolitan promo videos on youtube not having any gambling.

Craps Table & Chips Small

Craps players are notoriously superstitious.  If you say “seven” at a Craps table at any time after the point is established you’ll probably get some dirty looks, people will probably leave the table if someone start’s playing the Don’t, and anyone who doesn’t ask for the same dice after they go off the table seems [...]

Golden Nugget Atlantic City Small

I’ve had quite a few conversations about how video poker at the Golden Nugget Atlantic City is going to be and it’s just as I suspected – meh.  There are no playable games at the quarter level, but they have a few playable machines at the $1 and $2 level. 99.54% JoB 1-2-3-4-6-9-25-50-800 JoB (FP) [...]
