Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    Ya of course, every month at least once. I wouldn't be able to do this at first but since I don't hardcore party and drink like a maniac anymore I can take the rigors of Vegas a lot more now . Not to mention I've been winning past two times.

    BTW, I was at a wedding and I left and came home at 11:00 pm, yup something is definitely wrong with me.

    Anyway, I have a new idea I'm going to try out. The double bet method, which is doubling your bet everytime you lose a bet. The thing is with blackjack this is an average method because you can lose 7-8 hands in a row in blackjack, it's quite possible, so you don't want to end up putting 1000 dollars on your 6th or 7th bet. Pai-Gow on the other hand is a game where it is almost impossible to lose even 3-4 hands in a row. So I'm gonna try the double bet method on Pai-Gow and see how I do. Start betting 50 dollars a hand, if I lose , I'll put 100, and if I lose 3 times which is extremely rare I will put 200. Once I win I'll go back to 50 again and repeat this process. There is a lot of pushing in this game also. I think it might be a good strategy.

    I read somewhere that in general that's a really bad idea.
    It may have been in Mike Orkin's What Are the Odds

        Theres a lot to do now aside from only gambling. When you go, let me know. I'll tell you a few more things you can do aside from these: Go see "O" at Bellagio, very nice show. Eat at Wolfgangs restaurant at Venetian or Caesars. I don't know if you're into clubs or bars, you seem more of a bar type , The Hotel at Mandalay Bay on one of the highest floors has a very nice bar, a lot better than ghostbar at Palms. When you're in the bathroom you can actually see through the windows and have a nice view while unloading . And then theres Hoover dam if you want to see it. Spa's are great too, get a massage , go to the sauna. I'll post more when you're ready to go. I get excited for others that haven't gone for a long time . Most people don't do anything so they don't like it. I used to be like that, I would be a degenerate gambler and all I would do is gamble and lose and hate Vegas, but once you do all the other things and a few more which ill P.M you when you go, you'll love it. Oh and if you don't know how to play poker, learn it, you'll have a blast drinking a few beers and playing for hours with friends or just fun people at the table.

                  Go weekdays .. check travelocity ... sort by price .. then check the hotel websites for each one that have good deals on travelocity because sometimes they'll have better deals on their own sites.

                  Try to stick to the strip ... the extra money is worth it. But off strip, there is Hard Rock Cafe which is usually very expensive but sometimes has great deals and accross from it is Alexis resorts that sometimes has great prices. That area is pretty happenin and also close to the strip.
                  this post = teh win.
