The Podcasts of Casinos USA

Part 1. There are over 100 million visitors in total to America’s casinos year in and out; in fact, nearly half of these visitors are age 50 or older. Many specialist who treat compulsive gamblers believe that has many as 4 million boomers have a gambling problem as casinos seem to offer Boomers an escape from loneliness and even grief.  This makes the addiction all the more powerful. The Indian Regulatory Gaming Act in 1988 started the casino boom in America. Think about the Thin Ice Analogy. Play Hit and Run, remembering that your competitive personality can work against your own reasoning in that you keep playing beyond your loss limit while you create great Debt from gambling while insanely chasing losses

A. Las Vegas Sands Corp., B. MGM International (M-LIfe), C. Caesars Entertainment (Total Rewards), D. Wynn International, E. Boyd Gaming, F. Penn National, G. Pinnacle

Part 1.  Coach Fav gives his explanation of what “own the table” means and gives advice for pass line players on what it takes to own the table.  How? Secure more money with place bets than you have on the pass line and odds bet behind it.  When that happens, go “off” on the place bets. So now you assured of a profit even if the shooter 7’s out not making the established point.  If the point is made, you win the place bets and the line bet with odds.  Either way, you own the table. Sure, bet higher on a hot table.  Yet Coach Fav exposes the problem with high full odds (100X) that puts your bankroll at great risk.  Is it worth it to expose yourself to possible losses that can reach thousands of dollars? Your Call, but we enjoy the game as low rollers and enjoy it just as much.

Part II.  We talk about Blackjack mistakes that one can make.  Be careful and enjoy the game, but do your best to do things correctly:

a. Stay away from 6-5 Blackjack unless you are at a $1 table.

b. Communicate with the dealer by hand signals, not by voice.

c. Learn and play Basic Strategy for Blackjack. Blackjack is one of the best games in the casino when played correctly.  The house edge is below 1% when basic strategy is played perfectly. 

d. Don’t play where the table uses a continuous card shuffle machine if you count cards.

f. Never touch your bet chips once the cards are dealt.  This is a felony offense in Nevada if the casino decides you are adding or taking away chips when your fingers touch your original bet.

Part III. Janie’s favorite Las Vegas restaurants are discussed.  Great inexpensive food!

Part 1: Grease for Peace – What about all the “Boomer Music, Boomer Musicians” and their longevity is reviewed. So many are found in the 1400 casinos in the United States entertaining all ages. How old are they?  Coach Fav gives you many of their ages. Several are in their 70’s!

Part 2: Casino Group Therapy – is led by Janie who takes great exception to the YouTube’s Las Vegas talking heads that warn that staying in Las Vegas for more than 2 nights if you are not a gambler is a “waste of time.” Janie tells our story and how we spend 8-12 nights in Las Vegas Strip hotels and enjoy so much away from and outside of casino gambling.  Who’s right?  Hey, don’t argue with Janie. [Casino Group Therapy is a segment that we use to discuss something that upsets us]. Consider calling our voicemail to comment and give your view.

Part 3: Craps Talk – Regardless of what system we may be using, we often play around by chasing craps numbers (2) and (12 after they roll once. We  also call “hopping the reds” (7’s) if two 7’s are thrown consecutively on the come-out roll. Coach Fav gives you the details, how he uses these plays and how much he bets and presses. It’s a kick to try and makes me happy chasing win or lose.

Part I      Our 3-2-1 Craps Strategy for low roller pass line players was made into a video on YouTube’s COLOR UP by Jeremey Elerick. After 21 minutes of play, Jeremey, as the shooter, was up $54.  That’s over $120 per hour at that rate.  Casinos USA believes that our system is the best system for low rollers as there is never is more than $36 put at risk. Often the player of 3-2-1 “owns the table” because they will win on a 7-out or win even more if the point is made.  So we call that “Own the Table.” To see our system in action go to YouTube Search type in 3-2-1 craps.  You’ll find it easily.  Thanks again, Jeremey.

Part II  Information about Las Vegas Time Shares and Vacation Clubs are presented. Learn about “discounted stay promotions” that are a real savings without you buying a thing; however, you have to attend the sales promotion or you will be charged full fare according to several court cases on this matter. A typical sales presentation is explained.

Part III Learn all about casino promotions such as free play, BOGO dinners, reduced room rates, gifts, and 3x or 5x or 10x point promotions for players points on specific days, and concert and other show tickets.  

Part IV Advantages of an MLife Mastercard for MLife points. Let’s consider them. Certainly there are benefits. but always be concerned about the effect of holding too many credit cards on one’s FICO Score. Maybe open one new card, but first payoff and close a card that you have now.  Your FICO score determines the loan rate on any loan that you seek. They are a big thing.

Part I: Caller asks how to parley a diamond status from one gaming company into comps from a different gaming company. Before answering, Coach Fav discusses comps in general and explains his own attraction to casino comps. He warns in full disclosure that comps are given based on anticipated losses, which is tied to level of play and length of play on table games or slots. Honestly, in the end, most gamblers pay for their own comps by their losses.

To answer the caller, Coach Fav presents his specific strategies for getting comps from a new gaming company by getting “personal” with your present casino hosts.  

Part II: Janie and Coach Fav discuss the value of renting a car on a Las Vegas vacation as opposed to just using Uber and cabs. Rental cars work well on weekend evenings where cab lines and Uber lines can have you in a 30 or 40 minute wait. If one wants to go “off strip” everyday, a rental car makes great sense. Janie presents actual rental costs in today’s Las Vegas. Janie reminds all to bring their auto insurance card rather than paying for rental car insurance from the rental agency, which is very costly. Consider renting a car for a day or two from within the hotel. This is easy to do and beats going back to the airport to do this.

Part III. In “Casino Group Therapy” today Coach Fav asks, “Do you really know what you are getting into when you gamble in a casino?” Coach tells craps players if they do not use odds bets behind the pass line, do not make pass line bets because the “house edge” is too great against you after the come-out roll without an odds bet. Rather make one unit place bets on the 6 and 8 to enjoy craps.  Low rollers are best served by the 3-2-1 pass line craps betting system that we review repeatedly.  Finally, know your own limitations in any table game before you decide to gamble at a higher level. Be honest with yourself!

Welcome to our 5th season of our podcasts. Coach Fav explains how South West Airlines credits “Wannagetaway” flight tickets, and how simple it is to cancel rooms at Bally’s, Luxor, and the Golden Nugget without monetary loss.

Coach Fav then explains his 3-2-1 craps betting designed for a low roller pass line player.  This system is enjoyable to play and offers pass line players a strong opportunity for success. 

Janie reviews our most recent casino trip to The Rising Star Casino Resort in Rising Sun, Indiana where we enjoyed the 70’s rock group, America, in concert.  Also she provides the details of our very successful gambling experiences over a 3-day period. Did you know that The Rising Star Casino Resort has become so popular that management is opening a “river ferry” to carry cars from the Kentucky side of the Ohio River to the Indiana side – just to make the journey to the resort much shorter for patrons from Kentucky.  It opens in August, 2018- this month. 

Pennsylvania casino expansion is putting another casino within 20 miles of the home of Casinos USA.  Janie explains what gaming company is building at a local mall. 

In the final segment, “Casino Group Therapy,”  Coach Fav weighs in on the long-standing debate – Who knows more about playing Craps, low rollers or high rollers?

1. Our Digital Audience is getting a fan following as we strive to provide information and entertainment. Hey, that’s cool with us.

2. A lot of positive feedback on Janie’s report last episode on vacationing and gambling while staying in Daytona Beach, Florida.  

3. Full Disclosure: “My Talking Pet App” is available on the iTunes Store.  So are our podcasts available through iTunes; however, they are available at no cost.  Why would iTunes put so many podcasts on their store site if they are free?  Podcasters do not pay to put them there. Our guess is so it brings listeners to the site in that they might find an app that they like even though it cost a few bucks. MyTalking Pet App will enable your dog to talk; SO AT LEAST IT SEEMS. Next we hear “Oliver the Talking Dog” talk about his “People Skills,” which leads us into a more serious consideration of Casino Customer Service as it should be.  

4. Coach Fav reviews 4 of his 10 commandants of Gambling

5. We present very serious medical information and a tip in our 9-day Las Vegas July Vacation Plan. It is our need for refrigeration as we are traveling with medicine that should be kept cold.  Diabetic medicines often include medicines that are not to get overheated. In the Nevada desert in July, that’s a problem. Let’s begin with the airport and explain our solution to this problem and how the casinos are involved. (IMPORTANT)

6. In our Craps Talk Segment, we explore the joy and pain of becoming Miss, Mrs. or Mr. PARLEY at the Craps Table. “Parlay It,” may be something to try next time you play.
