    means nothing. In that it presented no slots win, and yet I won just fine downstairs in actual play.

    I lost about five K relatively quickly, and then even more quickly, won 10K on a perfect two two two two sequence. Just to show you how this works, the pattern of �won�t go past two� was already presented, but I won a 1000 on bank, pressed to 2000 on bank won again, and then put the whole 3000 on bank and lost. I quickly realized then that I had violated the shoe, and just put a single yellow chip 1000 a hand two, two, two, two, and killed it until the pattern changed�and then left.

    Taking advantage of a streak or pattern is important but even more important is LEAVING after the win.

    After I won even the dealer commented, �You know, I always thought Baccarat was random but watching you these past days I can see how it�s possible to follow a pattern.�

    My goal today was simply to take care of the 3800 loss from yesterday, but when I won 5000 that was more than I wanted, so�I left!

    Paid all markers off.

    Spent some time talking to the pit boss and dealer about how the Strip has gone downhill, and also about how so many Baccarat players (and gamblers in general) just keep playing until they lose. That�s what they see, and why people can�t win in Vegas � no money management. MDawg doesn�t have a problem with walking away a winner!

    The female lifeguards at this resort, the blondes in the red bathing suits, have incredible behinds. Shapely and firm. Not quite in the world class of my wife�s behind, but close! Sorry, no pics!

    Day Six � Fifth Day of Play

    Played just one shoe, another easy one. Because all markers were paid off yesterday, I was now starting over with smaller bets mostly black chips, but even with these smaller bets won about 3K easily. Easy shoe where the second player or bank hit almost always and it never went past two again for almost all of the shoe. I mean, really predictable.

    Winner�s envelope just under 10K in it now.

    Everything was comped again too - even spa services. Our bill for this five night stay in the big suite was barely a hundred dollars, and it was that high only because they don�t comp spa retail.

    Here is the bill from just the first portion of the stay, the first few days. For some reason they billed it in two segments, plus the extension I did to complete the over week long stay.

    At first they charged it to my MasterCard, by mistake, because my host was not on property.

    Later, this was credited off my bill! after I communicated with the host.

    Other than this first segment of the trip where I had to ask, the rest of the trip was like the old days where everything gets comped without even asking. Then again - play enough hours at a thousand dollar or close average, and everything should get comped.

    All details to follow when we leave this resort, but tonight's play was extreme! in a good way, in the end anyway. That would be Day Four play at Resort #3.

    Will post the update when we leave this third resort, but we are still here in Vegas, and it is going very well! Just gotta hold on to all that pretty polly (cash) and not blow it!

    What is up with the regular parade of muscle cars revving their engines up and down the Strip?

    Still here in Vegas, still ahead - and plan to keep it that way! My host is amazed.

    Still here, still ahead. I have a certain win goal in mind, and don't want to leave until I achieve it.

    Been at the same resort now going on three weeks, still on a full comp, including spa. The host says my play is "solid" but that it's getting to where he might have to start figuring the suite in when he cleans up all the food and spa....

    Ole!
