That's like asking a drug dealer if he claims his profits..

That's what I loved about being a narcotics detective.

I didn't give a shit about busting people with a little weed or a few Molly's. Recreational possession should be legal as far as I'm concerned.

I loved the process of BURYING the dealers who were paying zero taxes on all of their profits.

Fuck those guys.
 
Other considerations:

Pro-many casinos now intercept handpaid jackpots to pay back child support. Lowering the threshold on handpay theoretically will allow for more collection of same.

Con-seriously, the delay thing should not be breezed over. As one who USED to play a lot of slots, waiting for an attendant to come can often take a long time, then they come over, open the machine, do whatever it is they do, get your id, fill out the form, close it all up, have you spin it off, the process can take half an hour sometimes. The whole time you are thinking "Hurry up, I want to play." I used to put more money back waiting for the payout at the nearby machines out of boredom. More staff will definitely be needed or else the wait times will be even longer. Also, most feel obligated to pay the attendant that pays them, so that will be more out of the payout bottom line.

Also, not sure if it has been addressed, but international players would automatically have the %30 taken out at payout I assume. How do they get their loss money back?
 
Thank god that the millions (billions?!?!?) of low-income gamblers from NV, FL, AK, NH, SD, TX, WA, WY with 10-11 600-1199 wins and up to 6299 in losses have a selfless advocate of the +ev gamblers!

I may be a pimple on the ass of gamelive. You reno cool are a pimple on the ass of society. You admittedly provide ZERO value to your fellow man and when something inconveniences your sad existence by forcing you to pay just a sliver of your fair-share, you have gall to claim that your understandably self-motivated whining is even in the least bit altruistic.

You've had the opportunity to recount your motives for complaining and instead of admitting a trait which you abhor, pure self-interest in monetary gain (ironically a trait I admire), you've entrenched yourself, perhaps even deluded yourself into believing that you're complaining about this for the "right" reasons. You are nothing more than a whiny moocher with a flimsy transparent persona. I feel sorry for anyone who has to deal with you beyond interaction on an internet message board and I hope, for your mother's sake, that at least the tiniest sliver pf what you espouse here is a put-on for your internet pals (surely the only pals you have).
 
thats cute boner, nicely done. You are projecting your qualities on to me.

My value to fellow man is the resisting of the enslavement mentality that you and your fellow goobers have thrust upon us for your own benefit. :up:
 
sure, casinos are assholes too. It's a race to see who can bleed the public more fully. That is the whole mentality.
they have turned the corner and are now tightening up benefits.
Instead of saying: hey we have a good thing going, lets give back more to gambler if possible, and make it so everybody can enjoy a good thing.
no, the mentality is where can we squeeze that they wont notice:excellent:

Too many casinos now unfortunately. The beancounters are really watching their bottom line now. People just don't have the disposable income they once had.
 
pretty accurate article iag. the $1000 is kind of a big deal because of the payout on the quarter royal flush. quarter vp is by far the most popular game for average regular gamblers. They never had to fill out a w2g before and hence the vast majority never report their play (shocking news I'm sure).

It would be one thing if you can deduct losses straight against wins. But wins go straight towards your gross income whereas the losses can only be deducted under sch A. Of course that causes problems for many different people, especially seniors and anyone receiving any benefits based on low income.
 
my guess is what is likely to happen RF goes down to paying 500 or 599, maybe get an extra coin on one of the other hands.
I bet this would happen across the board.

Iag get ready to hit for $500 on those blazers, but hopefully twice as often :winkwink:
