Waiving
the white flag in roulette
--
Dear Mark,
I was playing roulette and betting on the outside
in a Missouri casino. Double zero hit and I lost
my whole bet. I asked why I didn't get half my
bet back as I thought was the rule, but the roulette
dealer had no idea what I was talking about. Was
I wrong or is this just a Missouri rule? Darren

The
secret to video poker
-- Dear
Mark,
If dealt A, K, Q, J, of hearts and a 10 of diamonds
on a video poker machine, should I try for the
royal flush or stick with the straight? This happened
to me recently and I kept the straight, kicking
myself ever since. How bad a move was it? Patricia

Substantiating
your losses a must with Uncle Sam
--
Dear Mark,
You said on slot winnings more than $1,200, the
dreaded IRS form must be completed. Having never
won a jackpot of this size before until recently
at Stateline, NV, I am confused. It took that

Three's
a charm?
--
Dear Mark,
My favorite number is three. I was born on 3/3/1933.
I regularly bet three on the roulette table, make
$33 dollar wagers in blackjack and always play
the third machine from the left on a slot carousel.
Over the years it has paid decent dividends. Is
there such a thing as a lucky number? Freddy G...

The
Kid wasn't ready yet
--
Dear Mark,
My spouse and I have a dinner riding on your response.
Because we live in a very small town with limited
video rentals, we need an answer from you to the
following question. I say the Cincinnati Kid lost
his final wager in the movie of the same name.
My husband believes he won and became the reigning

One
taco short of a combination plate
-- Dear
Mark,
In all your years in the casino industry, I bet
you never heard of this type of superstitious
gambling. My brother-in-law brings a small computer
to his hotel room that has a software program
that tracks a person's biorhythms. He then proceeds
to ask dealers their birth dates, runs back up
to his hotel room, then plots the dealers' emotional,
physical and mental state. Then he goes back to
the casino and only plays on a dealer's table
if the software shows a dealer in a down cycle.
Beat that! James M... more »
