Gambling

This guy was boating down the Mississippi when all of a sudden a fighter pilot who had ejected from his crashing plane landed on his boat. He would have tangled in his chute and drowned otherwise.

The pilot's dad is a billionaire oil tycoon, and he was so grateful that he gave the boat's owner a million dollars.

Just goes to show you, anybody can get rich if they catch an ace on the river.

I recently went to Atlantic City and stayed at the Econo Lodge for $40/night. We took a bus from New York City to Bally's and Bally's reimbursed us $22 off our bus fare. There are also discount buffets, mc donalds, pizza shops, chinese food, and dellis that allow affordable eating.

I have never been to foxwoods, so I don't know what is there or how to structure a trip. I can get an inexpensive bus from NYC I know that, but as far as eating and sleeping, I don't know how to do that on a budget. I don't have a car.

With a car, I know I can always stay on the CA/NV state line for $20/night and a 3 star hotel, so I know there are similar secrets to the vegas area.

If anyone can let me know any tips or tricks to living 'lightly' while in CT at foxwoods or Mohegan Sun let me know.

Thanks!

When a pair of dice is rolled, the total will range from 2 (1,1) to 12 (6,6). It is a fact that some numbers will occur more frequently than others as the dice are rolled over and over.

Why will some numbers come up more frequently than others?
Each die has six sides numbered from 1 to 6. How many possible ways can a number be rolled? In other words, we can roll (2,3) or (3,2) or (6,1) and so on. What are the total (x,y) outcomes that can occur?
How might you then estimate the percentage of the time a particular number will come up if the dice are rolled over and over?
Once these percentages have been calculated, how might the mean value of the all the numbers thrown be determined?

Can someone settle an argument. My friend tells me that the chance of any number coming out on Lottery is 49-1 which I agree however he says that this means the odds and probability of any six random numbers are the same odds of numbers 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 coming out . I dont agree but dont know enough about statistical probabilities to prove him wrong.

I used to use Neteller, but they do not allow USA players anymore. Click2pay does not allow you to withdraw. They say they "have temporarily removed the withdrawal option" this was over a month ago. I have looked into E-passporte, but They say you need to wait 10 days before funds from your checking account go to your E-passporte account. There must be a faster way.

Curious if someone could tell me the difference here. I live in the State of Texas, they allow horse race betting, dog race betting, NASCAR better and have over a dozen lotery type games that are played through the week as well as Scratch off games. What I don't understand is this: Why do they outlaw Casinos in Texas? What's the difference?

Surely this information is publicly available somewhere, right? But I haven't been able to find it.

would that relative ALSO have to pay taxes on that, so essentially the money is double-taxed?

i.e. if my mom (who doesn't live with me) won the lottery, and wanted to give me a million dollars, would I have to pay taxes on that million dollars even though she already payed taxes on the lump sum?

My mom didn't win the lottery. I'm just curious.

Surely that is a skill that intelligent punters can develop to increase the odds of winning or decrease the odds of losing?

I can count cards.

Let me explain. Say on a 6 deck shoe, you have counted to a whopping +35. That is supposed to mean that the deck is completely in your favor (there are more face cards than anything).

That's when you throw your big bet out.

Well, you get a face card and a seven (17).

But, the dealer also gets a face card (TWO of THEM). You lose.

How is this in your favor? Is it because the dealer, if having to hit, can hit a face card and bust?
