RE: RE: Re: [vpFREE] RE: Re: Fascinating new poker machine

 

Just a clarification from Mr. Brodie's blog....He probably was not banned for
"too many" royals in video poker. Maybe the collective amount was "too much".

He mentioned only 4 royals, but they were big ones. There are many player who
might have gotten 4 royals in only one weekend, just not on $25 machines. There must be more to the story than "too many" royals.

It happens all the time outside of NJ. Microsoft Billionaire Richard Brodie was banned from all Harrahs properties, including convention centers, and the WSOP for playing video poker and hitting too many royal flushes:

Harrahs later realized that this was total stupidity and poor sportsmanship on their part, and they reversed the ban, for Richard Brodie. But casinos outside of NJ continue to abuse their powers. Attorney Bob Nersesian was able to get a court in North Las Vegas to agree the practice of barring customers not breaking any laws was illegal in that jurisdiction, it's just a matter of time before the courts rule the same for the entire state.
