Could you choose a voucher good for buying groceries there? And, if so, I wonder if the voucher could almost be used at Food For Less, which is the same company.

[vpFREE] Re: Bob Dancer's LV Advisor Column - 21 AUG 2012

 


Thanks for your confidence in me. I guess you saw the fixed column and thought:

A. Oh I guess this guy's English is so bad that he can't explain the difference between a strategy error and a typo or he thinks holding AKT suited with an offsuit 10 or 3 is a good idea in jacks or better.

Instead of the more likely:

B. Well its been four days since he posted, and nobody responded saying he was wrong. They probably fixed the typo.

Re: [vpFREE] Sunset Station 5c FPDW MIA

 

I saw Loose Deuces on them. I do not belive FPDW was on that specific bank after the alteration to 25c. However there are lots of other 25c FPDW banks scattered throught the casino.

That's right - the day the column was posted to the group, the "3" in that final hand definitely had a "Club" symbol next to it, and based on what Bob wrote in the column (and what correct strategy dictates) like vplayer88 I also believed it to be a typo. By the time Bob replied to vpplayer88, the symbol had been corrected.

I believe you are correct, vpplayer88. That hand originally was A K 10 spades, 10 diamonds and 3 clubs. The column was edited and the suit of the 3 was changed from clubs to spades. That hand is now A K 10 spades, 10 diamonds and 3 spades.

[vpFREE] NSU Dueces at Wendover

 

Just returned from Wendover. Looks like the NSU dueces have been down graded bad. $1.00 is now airport deuces. .25 NSU is 1 2 3 4 4 9 12 20 200 800 = 97.05. I am just a recreational player, so maybe someone who is a more knowledgeable player could check this out and let us know. If this is correct, then its not worth the trip even with the free flights.

You are probably better off to use a coinstar in a supermarket. The one at the Smiths at Flamingo and Jones gives several options for"free" conversion if you choose a coupon for amazon.com or other choices instead of cash. I chose amazon and had no problems.

Also, to use up your existing Albertson gift card balances you should be able to use the balances to purchase gift cards for other places you spend money: gas stations, Dunkin donuts,home depot....

The best use of coinstar is its extensive coins for charity program. Find a
CS location and donate your change to a bona fide charity.
