    Player Control!!

    I always track tips and crew bets because that total is the difference between what you actually cash for and what you would have cashed for by stiffing and if I don't track that number my estimate is always lower that what it really is. My goal is to balance being a solid george while also having a chance to end up. I am also a big fan of 'player control'. I have had a couple of times that I have topped off a bet in BJ or C4P with a white or red chip so I can totally control things since it is almost impossible to get things corrected if the dealer swipes everything. On my last trip, I played next to the stick and my 2-way hardway bets were always 'automatic press' for both which I ended up liking very much. The stickman got used to that and the crew appreciated being able to climb units with me. We cashed for two units twice and three units once and their take all started as one unit so I like the ROI for a one-unit starter.

    Not impressed. Like the casino, but not staying here again.

    .45 double stack, but very similar feel as the 226. No idea on retail price.

    I lost my phone?

    Great report so far! I own a 226 in .40. My only regret was not going .45, but otherwise it's a sweet pistol. Good luck the rest of the way. Excited to follow along!
