Ex Blackjack Pro Lauren Kling Gives out Blackjack Tips
October 5th, 2010 by Site Admin
Lauren Kling, an ex blackjack player now turned poker pro, recently discussed her life and game play with CardPlayer.com and cited several blackjack tips for her fans.
Lauren Kling is both beautiful and brilliant and has mastered the games of blackjack and poker. Kling was first introduced to blackjack by her father who was a blackjack high roller who played in Las Vegas. Kling soon found she had an affinity for the game and card counting and often accompanied her father on his gambling trips using her older sister’s ID. “I’ve always been pretty good about keeping the count. Using my sister’s ID, I was able to make a lot of money just playing alongside my dad,” Kling stated.
Kling also claimed that her father who was a math geek at MIT was linked to the famous MIT blackjack team featured in the movie “21.” “My dad had a loose affiliation with the team. I’m not sure if he was asked to be a member or if he just had some friends on it, but he clearly knows what he’s doing when he sits down in the pit,” she said.
Kling also mentioned a few blackjack tips for players stating, “When the count is good, you want to be betting big. When the count is bad, you want to be betting small. It’s a pretty simple concept, but it takes a special kind of person to be able to keep a running count, let alone do it without being obvious.”

Although Las Vegas is known for its expensive casinos, players will be able to find a few cheap blackjack tables at many casinos along Fremont Street or the casinos in Fiesta and Texas Station. Some of the best casinos for blackjack enthusiasts looking for cheap tables are the Orleans Casino and the Palace Station in this area.
Other casinos that offer players cheap blackjack tables include the Gold Strike Hotel and Casino in Jean, Buffalo Bills and Primm Valley Resort along Freeway 15, the newly renovated Fandango Casino at Carson City and Carson Valley Inn in Minden.

Galaxy Gaming To Introduce New Buffalo Blackjack Bonus Game At Denver Casinos
October 1st, 2010 by Site Admin
Galaxy Gaming, a popular gaming platform provider, recently announced its expansion of operations. As per the new development, the company will be setting up two casinos in Colorado fully equipped with table games like blackjack and poker. Both, the Lady Luck Casino and the Ameristar Casino will be established in Denver, adding to the 23 casinos already operating table games there.
In addition to the two new casinos, Galaxy Gaming will also be launching two new games at the Denver casinos. These include an interesting and rewarding blackjack game called Buffalo Blackjack Bonus and another table game called Three Card Split. The Buffalo Blackjack Bonus game has already been approved for trial and was designed specifically for the region’s gaming market.
The Buffalo Blackjack Bonus game has been designed with the state’s special blackjack regulations in mind. As a result the game does not incorporate the Lucky Ladies side bet, but uses the Bust Bonus and 21 Magic side bets instead. The casinos will also be relaxing their table game regulations.
“The decision by Colorado legislators to relax table game regulations was beneficial for their table game operators and a significant consideration for Galaxy Gaming to enter the market. An unexpected side benefit was the development of the blackjack side bets ’21 Magic’ and ‘Bust Bonus.’ Originally created only for Colorado, we believe we can leverage their popularity into other jurisdictions as well. I think we have two more winners,” stated Robert Saucier the CEO of Galaxy Gaming.
Report Reveals Iowa to Draw Blackjack Players and Staff from South Dakota
September 29th, 2010 by Site Admin
The Larchwood Casino is currently under construction in Iowa, and is based close to the border between South Dakota and Iowa. However, the Iowa Gaming Commission has created an interesting report that has stunned South Dakota.
The report says that three quarters of the people gambling at Larchwood Casino will be from South Dakota, and that they will spend around $55 million annually on gambling alone, which translates into a revenue hike for Iowa. Moreover, 679 of the 755 people, who will be recruited to run Larchwood Casino, will be from South Dakota. While this might be great news for job seekers, owners of South Dakota casinos might have to raise salaries to keep their casino staff.
Despite the fact that Iowa might draw its employees and gamblers from South Dakota, major purchases will be done by the local people, owing to the state’s “Iowa first” policy.
South Dakota can keep its blackjack players by constructing its own casino. Currently, only the Indian tribes operate casinos there and they are not permitted to establish casinos outside their jurisdiction although a nod from Governor Mike Rounds can change this. But the South Dakota government is hesitating; and Larchwood Casino owners, in the meanwhile, are making their money.
