Off to the casino/Gonna play Blackjack for the 1st time!!!! Any advice?
Go to Gold Strike in Tunica MS every New Years Day. It has become a tradition.

Usually I just kick back and hit the slots, eat and drink.

Tomorrow I think I'll try some blackjack. I've played with the guys many times, I know how to play. But the casinos, that's a different deal.

Any tips?

If you're going to gamble, at least play a game where skill can make you come out ahead over time.. A live deal Texas Hold'em game is a better bet if you know how to play right.

As a professional Gambler, my advice is to stay away from Blackjack unless you have 100x the minimum bet. You would be better off going to the poker tables. You don't play against the house

 There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

There is another theory mentioned, which states that this has already happened.

what?????

Basic strategy says that if the dealer shows a 6 or less and you have 12 or more, you stay, if the dealer shows a 7, you and you have 16 or less, you hit. You always split 8's, and you never split 20

They say the first time you smoke crack you get addicted. I know of one person who smoked it and didn't get addicted, but I know of some others for whom addiction resulted. It's not as if crack doesn't have a reputation for being highly addictive, and so most people stay away from it altogether. Even though they may do other drugs like cannabis or even snort cocaine, you don't run into too many people who don't hold crack fairly well in contempt. It has always been taboo and it always will be, regardless of its defenders and pushers. There is not one good thing that will come of it and everybody knows it. If that's not the view of the people you know then you know some people you need to steer clear of, because they have problems....I'm sorry, we were talking about gambling, weren't we?
