    Ah yes, the difference between "having made" money and "making" money... Or "going to continue to make money".

    Not to put too fine a point on it. :D

  2. This is sort of akin to the "giraffe in the refrigerator" quiz in another thread. I mean what's wrong with this picture?

    The students attend MIT (in MA) and travel all the way to LV?? So, what's wrong with Atlantic City? Not only is it closer but, from what I've been able to glean, there is an NJ law that prohibits casinos from banning card counters.

    They played LV and Atlantic City as a team.

    A very good book written as this team executed their plan is "Bringing down the house..." I liked the book a lot because of the creative way the students went about achieving their high risk goals. A good read...

  4. How come no one ever talks about professional horseplayers? Probably because there are very very few, and don't get the same PR exposure as blackjack, stock market , futures.

    Anyone know anything about the game here?

    I know there is a fellow named Andrew Beyer who has been the handicapper for the Washington Post since the 1970's does well. Here's a cool link.
