erm...sturll? Seriously. Chill. Froggit's only expressing an opinion which differs from yours - something you seem to have some level of difficulty with.

Differing opinions are what makes this thread great - if we all agreed, it would have died ages ago.

Please can you stop getting your back up over every post that may present an alternative picture to what you may present yourself?

Not trying to be nasty, but it really does seem that you do tend to get snarky when anyone says anything which gives an opposing view to yours. This is a friendly little thread and always has been and I think we'd all really like to keep it that way.

Thanks very much.

Not at all Ferf. I welcome disagreement and discussion. But i dont appreciate ill informed attempts to rubbish my opinions/help.

Now run along and lets just leave this.

You will have noticed that I pretty much thank everyone on this thread for contributing. It also helps me keep track of the thread as I like to read every single post. I've added some thanks for sturl recently, and some of his posts have been useful (car hire & blackjack tips), however I don't agree with his recent remarks to stoneman, ferf & frogitt, so please don't see my thanks as agreeing with his comments about individuals. (Can't believe I even feel the need to post this, but I wouldn't want my thanks to be seen in any other manner than the way I intended it)

Wow, that s**ks!! I am afraid you are right, as we know what weasles some of these casinos can be. Was that offer to be paid for up front? Because if it was I think you might have a case for getting it honoured. If not I can't see how they could not let you cancel.
As always, best advice, RING THEM!

The best and one of the few ways to make a good bit of money is BlackJack, but only if you play single deck and soft 17.

Make sure you know the rules. But the house edge is only about 1%.

Do you mean dealer sticks or draws S17?
sturll is right though, B/J is the SECOND best game to play for odds in a casino, with a house edge of more like half of a percent played properly and with a single deck paying 3/2 on blackjacks. Whatever you do don't get caught playing the pleasure pit, X at the Flamingo, or other high visability tables in the casinos, as these are usually 6/5 paid on blackjacks and should be kicked into touch.

Surely, the Venetian should just end that offer and start the new one with the adjustment. Wonder how many people might not notice until it's too late to do anything about it....
