Thanx for the clarification. I usually skip Rob's posts. Reading it now, Rob doesn't say what the pay schedule of the games were or what the benefits were for continuing to play. In the right circumstances it could have been a very enlightened move to keep playing. Rob belittles the guy based on the fact that he kept playing after reaching his high point of the day (as if anyone could know without more play) --- which is one of the least important criteria to judge a play by. If the DDB turned out to be 9/6 or less and the BP turned out to be 8/5 or less and there was no extra benefit for playing additional (including slot club, mailers, drawings, extra comps, additional loss rebates, etc.), then I would agree with Rob that it was a mistake for the guy to continue. Not because the guy gave back money from his high point (nobody can know that until the day is done --- he could have hit a royal) but because he was playing at a big disadvantage. But not knowing the parameters of why the guy continued to play, I can't evaluate how smart the play was. Bob
