Nevada/Las Vegas minimums (COVID Edition)
It was getting really tedious to edit a post with over 100 casinos in it. So I'm breaking it up to Nevada casinos and non-Nevada casinos. On a side note, heading to Vegas on Thursday. I'll try to write a trip report and update the minimums as I can. I'm there 9 days and We will be hitting more than 10 casinos, so I expect to be busy. Without further ado: Last update: 9/29

Report your table minimums here (COVID Edition) part 3
Part 3 in the COVID series. To try and make this list more helpful, I have added Weekend Day and Weekend Night, as those can be vastly different than during the week. I'm trying to monitor Twitter and the Vegas Message Board to get some additional information. Keep sharing all that wonderful goodness. I'd like to update the wiki to talk about what sidebets casinos have, so if you know that info, I can add it to the table comments.

*Last update 8/21 Part 1. It's getting buried so I figured we would make a new one. Part 2 Pulled additional info from here.
6/17 Edit: Great info guys. Keep it coming! If something changes, please let me know. I reached out to the mods asking about putting together a post to collect minimums for craps tables in Vegas and other places. If this post gains traction, it may get a sticky. It may also help cut down on the amount of posts asking for this info. I'll try to keep the body of the post updated. If information is correct, let me know. Update 6/18 - Nevada Gaming Board announced masks required at table games in Nevada. I haven't heard that this is being enforced yet. 6/30: Keep reporting, especially any of you heading to Vegas. We would love to hear what the mins are on the strip Let me know what casino, day or night and the minimums:

Slow and Steady Wins the Race. $150 turned into $10k playing baccarat. [Long]
Edit to add: My story isn't a sexy, bling-bling about wrecking a table for tons of money in one session. All the same, I'm a winner in the long run and super proud of myself. Some Background about me: I am a 51 years old lady and single mom. I am not a gambler AT ALL. I have gambled twice in my life with around $20-$40 of my own money at slot machines playing with quarters, but that's it! A few years ago I went to Reno, NV for a conference. I stayed at a hotel casino where if you joined the player club they would give you $5 or $10 in free play (I can't remember the exact amount.) The machine I picked I had two pulls of max bet with the amount they gave me. On my second and last pull of free play, I won $480 and immediately cashed out and walked away and didn't gamble again until this year. That pull pretty much paid for my trip! So yeah, I'm VERY risk adverse. Fast forward to this year and the lockdown. I decided to learn something new during the lockdown and I was trying to figure out what to learn and study: Harmonica? Guitar? Take an online class on 18th Century Literature? Baking? And then I remembered the last time I was at the Casino when I won that $480, I remember thinking that the craps table looked like a lot of fun - people were actually cheering and clapping -- but I had NO idea how it worked. So I learned craps. Not that I wanted to play, I just wanted to understand it. I watched videos, read books, read articles, etc etc. So while I haven't played and I certainly don't understand ALL the nuances, I have a fairly good understanding of how to play craps, various strategies and what are sucker bets. I even started practicing dice control, because why not? Then, I accidentally heard about baccarat from either a related video or online article mention and I shifted my attention to that because it seemed so simple. For the next two weeks I studied for about 6-8 hours per day: Watching videos, reading articles, watching live play, studying strategies. I even played along a bunch of recorded games on youtube with my own money to see how I would have fared with various strategies. I played a demo game at one of the casino sites but it was obvious that it was skewed toward you winning in order for you to feel confident because there was a big PLAY FOR REAL HERE button. That's some shady carnival barker shit right there. I didn't plan to actually play with my own money, it was just for the fun. You know, fantasy. But then I did a mock jury online and they payed me $150 for 1.5 hours of my time. So I had this free $150 and decided to go for it. My plan was that I soon as I made 20% of my bankroll each day, I would quit. If I lost a certain amount each day, I would quit and not chase the loss. I would come back the next day and try again. And that's exactly what I did. So the very first day I played, I started with $100. When I got to $120, I immediately quit. The next day I had $120 to start and when my balance shot up to $150-something which was above my 20% and I immediately quit for the day with my profits. I kept doing this each day. When I got up to $500, I put the original $150 away so from then on I was only playing with the casino's money. Now I know some of you turn $100 into many thousands in one session, but that's not me. I was disciplined and determined and I stuck to the same rules: quick, surgical strikes. Get in, get out. If my loss got to x%, I quit for the day. If my wins got to a x%, I quit for the day. It was a slog - a slow and steady race, one tiny step at a time. BUT I DID IT!! Eventually I turned $150 starting bankroll into into 10K. Yes, it took me all summer, but who cares!? It was also hours of entertainment. I wanted to get to 10K because I had about that much left on my car note. As of yesterday I no longer have a car note because I paid it off 100%. I still have my original $150 and I am retired forever from baccarat. Maybe I'll learn blackjack next - just for fun, though. Good luck everyone! Play responsibly, etc etc
Closest Mario Kart 8 Game (and Switch) to Mountain West Schools
It has been said that the Mountain West conference is “At the Peak,” and to me, nothing illustrates that more, than the fact that there are 12 teams competing in the only NCAA Division 1 conference that sponsors e-sports. Of course, since the matches are played head-to-head, Boise State has an advantage because they tint the monitors blue, and play with all blue avatars; an advantage that is confirmed in their winning of League of Legends and Overwatch, but with the Spring season being cut, next year the Mountain West has announced that they will be playing Mario Kart 8, for the Nintendo Switch. Due to the large amounts of people in the Mountain West cities suddenly having $1200 burning a hole in their pocket, every store that sells Nintendo Switch has sold out of their allotment; yes, even, Amazon. So, thus the conundrum becomes: How can these players, prospects, and ordinary people practice in order to “git gud” as the gamers would say? Well, that’s where I come in. For, you see, since I am allowed out on the streets again, finally, due to both my prison sentence being cut short, and my work being determined to be “essential,” I had the time to scope out some places. Alas, while my cough and fever are not improving as much as I had hoped since I last got back from Italy, I did manage to find some time to visit all of the Mountain West cities in order to find the easiest place to get a Switch and Mario Kart 8 location. For simplicity’s sake, I am going by the football stadium since it’s a well-defined point in most locations – San José State fans, the football stadium is that big ovoid building at the corner of E Alma Ave, and S 7th St… It’s the place where the people aren’t on Saturday’s is September. Should you get hungry during your travels, I have also managed to find a some breakfast locations in the same vicinity
Okay, so I lied a little; I tried to get into the university, but, unfortunately the men with guns wouldn’t actually let me get beyond the gate on S Gate Rd, and I was still a little jet-lagged having just gotten in from Frankfurt after having woken up for my 0610 flight for the Linate to Frankfurt leg (stupid weather prevented the flight from Denver to ABQ, but my loss is your gain). So, while this may not be the closest, it certainly will fit the bill. Tyler-Jay Rowland who lives at 3075 Navigation Drive, in Colorado Springs was more than willing to help out, especially since his son, Jeremiah, was grounded for a month for staying out after curfew two weekends in a row. As the falcon flies, this location is 5.2 miles away; in a car, it’s not too much further than that.
Boise State
Now, I don’t, technically, hate the way that Boise is laid out with the river running right through the center of town, but even though Maci Drew lives in the Clearwater Apartments, unit 323, which is in a straight line, only a quarter of a mile from the stadium, you will have to go the Exxtramile, to get to her apartment. Also, she would like me to point out, that times for a waitress like herself are a little rough, so please, if you’re hungry, skip Taco Bell, and eat at the Bar Gernika in downtown Boise, right next to the Central Plaza and Century Link Arena. “We have wifi” she said.
Colorado State
This is, by far, the most remarkable location; I had completely forgotten that they moved to an on-campus stadium, so I initially went to the Hughes Stadium location, and found a big pile of dirt. And not much else – well, if you exclude the trees that formed a nice line, that brought me back to my college days. Having corrected my too old Garmin in-car GPS, I found Tim Thatcher on 604 Balsam Ln; he’s a little deaf, so you might need to knock like you are ram-ing down the door. He bought the Switch after his wife of 35 years died to help him grieve and spend his retirement, “but it’s just making me too sad lately, and I’ve never been very good at vid’ya [sic] games. I still don’t know how I’m supposed to save the princess when she’s trying to beat me… That reminds me of my princess, who I lost last year. She was so kind, we met in high school, I had an onion on my belt as was the style in those days. They didn't have any white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones.” I’ll be honest, at this point I started zoning out because, again, fever. He honestly looked really sad as I was talking to him, so you might want to try to cheer him up, since he’s just a lonely guy bein’ a dude. In a straight line distance, you’re only going .3 miles, and it’s not too much further by car.
New Mexico
This is by far the closest location to the stadium. The UNM Lobo Club is a non-essential business in the state of New Mexico, and UNM and the Athletics Department realized that funding would need to be cut dramatically throughout the state, and with the sweetheart deal they got from the legislature this year, they decided to close all athletic facilities, including the Maloof building, home of both Eddie Nuñez’s office, and the Lobo Club. I suggest using the side door closest to the field level entrance of the stadium. That’ll take you to the weight room; an alarm will go off, the code is “1892” the year the football team first played (interesting tidbit: the marching band was founded in 1889, the same year as the university); from there enter the main hallway, and go to the first door on the left after you pass the restrooms. The last time I was there, they had a vending machine that dispensed free Mountain Dew; I was howl-ing with laughter after I found that. Also, if you see Señor Manta, say “Hola!” he’s been down on his luck since his family were killed in the accident, and now he wanders the street like a lone Lobo.
Utah State
It was like a bomb went off. No one was around; maybe they were busy playing Farmer, or having a bonfire out in the dirt behind the stadium, wit their brown-eyed girls, but Jeff Field’s dorm room, Aggie Village Community building 17, first floor, third window from the right (he leaves it unlocked, so don’t worry about access) has a Switch just sitting there on the bed, as though he borrowed it from someone, but never managed to return it before he left. Go on, take it, just say that it was yours and he left it, no one will check.
Wyoming
Cowboys and Cowgirls are just different, I guess; I could not find a Nintendo Switch in town for the life of me. I found many Switchblades, Light switches, and many wooden rods, so I took my horse down to Cheyenne, and found a recently laid-off Subway Sandwich Artist called Dom, who knew just where to look. He directed me to 803 West 21st St, Suite B. He told me, “yeah, the guy who runs this storefront, has a little son, about 6 years old. He keeps a Switch in his desk’s keyboard tray for when he picks his son up from school.” Because of the ordeal in Laramie, I asked him to clarify, and he did, “yeah… Nintendo switch.” He said as he looked around shiftily. If that doesn’t work you can always try Suite C, I heard they stock Switches… oh wait, not that kind.” I was going to ask him for more information, but he entered what looked like an abandoned brick building just passed the railroad tracks, “You didn’t see me,” he said. And I also didn’t hear the gunshots that went off as I walked back to my car.

Hawai’i
Hawai’i is interesting because the Honolulu airport has a much better open air location than the El Paso airport; there’s a water path, it’s weird man, it reminds me a lot of the Tiki Room at Disn… oh, yeah, Hawai’i, Polynesia, that makes sense. Anyway, the stadium is home to the largest swap meet’s I’ve ever seen. Unfortunately, I did not find any Switches, but I did find a guy swapping Macadamia Nut cookies for a few dollars, so naturally, I bought some. It started to rain, so even though many people are Rainbow Warriors or Wahine, as the women prefer to be called, I am not. I stopped in at the ‘Aeia Public Library for a spell, and my phone was dead, so I needed a place to charge for a bit. The nice librarian, Akela (“it means graceful,” I was told. After I asked, “like the wolf-spirit in Hindi myths?”), pointed out, that, “We loan out all sorts of stuff here; pots, pans, sewing machines. Believe it or not, we even rent out video game systems. Our most popular is probably the Nintendo Switch, but we also have a couple of Xbox’s and PS4’s.” I guess I looked very shocked because Akela continued, “with the military surrounding us, we, the library system, get a lot of goods from contractors who don’t want to have a lot of their goods shipped back to the mainland.” Seeing how much it cost to ship out, I completely understood, and bid ¬¬Akela aloha, and failed the Hawai’I test by passing out at the nearest Embassy Suites, in Kapolei, if I remember correctly (I probably don’t, I was tired).
Fresno State
A nice cow brought me to Clovis. Much like what happened in Las Vegas, it was not the cool one, but instead the one in California. She (I saw udders), brought me specifically to 264 Clovis Ave, and said, “what you seek, from my master, is in there.” I’m not sure if it was my fever, jet-lag, a combination of them, or something else entirely, but then the cow vanished as though she was just a thing on the internet. A stray puppy passed by me in downtown, so that was probably the highlight of the trip.
Nevada (Reno)
Look, I’ll be honest, Reno to me always makes me feel like I’m going to be leaving the city without one or both of my kidneys. I don’t know why I expect Renoirs to chew my body like a Pack of Wolves, but there you are. Diedre Thomas of 128 Keystone Ave, fell on hard times. She poured herself a glass of vodka, neat, and said, “you can have anything you want,” she paused briefly to wink at me, “for the right price.” I specifically enquired about the Switch, “Anything,” she replied. She pulled out what appeared to be a small glass bowl that looked like an incense holder, and a baggie of chalk dust, and… Oh my god, she was going to smoke cocaine. Anyway, as she pulled out the pulled out the baggie, I hastily took my leave. I then went to the airport and went to my next stop….
Nevada – Las Vegas
Can you believe parents still bring their children, like elementary school aged children to Las Vegas. And it’s not the cool Las Vegas, in New Mexico, it’s the one in Nevada; well, I guess, technically they bring their kids to Paradise, and not Las Vegas, but c’mon man, there isn’t that much difference. Anyway, head to the Excalibur hotels because Carla, the housekeeper said that on average 3 Switches get left by guests every day. I then felt really depressed while walking around the hotel, so I left to check out the Mirage, where I normally stay on these Mountain West trips. I also learned that if there’s one thing that freaks me out more than the throngs of people walking the Strip, it’s when there’s nobody around. Once the new stadium gets completed it will be vastly easier to get to the casino than at the current location.
San Diego State
I stayed with Dominic, at his house of Friars Road. I was starting to feel sick to my stomach with the lack of green chile, so it was so enjoyable to spend time with a fellow New Mexican (and my roommate junior year). He took me on a little tour: Balboa Park’s stadium (home of the former Harbor Bowl, and the first tie in UNM Football history), the USS Midway, and Ocean Beach. I had forgotten about the assignment until I looked down at my feet and found a working Switch. When it was still there after an hour, I borrowed a small boat, realised, I need a bigger boat and headed out to the Ocean. Having claimed rights, I then put it back, so you might also find it.
San José State
Look, there are a lot of people who depart from the San Jose Airport. The kids who travel on these flights are slightly scatter-brained because of the adrenaline of taking a plane ride (and passing through the checkpoint), and leave some of their electronics, and I found a shoe! A shoe! Who only puts one shoe on and then walks-off? It was an adult shoe, so it’s not like a child/toddleparent left it, no, someone made a conscious decision to leave their shoe… Maybe it was a protest? Anyway, just tell the guy that you left your Switch at the checkpoint, if he asks you what color it was say, it had yellow grips that slide off, but the screen was bounded by black.

Conclusion
Even if the stores are sold out of Switches, there are always places you can go to get them, some are definitely within walking distance of your house, maybe even right next door. If you do choose to do that, there are a few things to keep in mind: 1. Milk 2. Eggs, specifically from Natural Grocers, if they still have member pricing.

Next up is the NV gaming license and tech certification process! Full story below: https://zensports.com/blog/zensports-inks-deal-with-strategic-gaming-management-for-nevada-expansion/
I noticed that there are a few items in my game that have been replaced by other versions. These include Med-X to morphine and Today's Physician to Cat's Paw magazines. These are not items that are simply added to the game, but replace the items altogether. Trying to obtain either through console commands results in the replaced variants. While the med-x/morphine change is only a name change, the today's physician/cat's paw change replaces the +10 medicine boost with a +5 AP +1 Charisma boost. This makes dealing with medicine skill checks difficult. I've never downloaded any mods specific to these items. I know that this is a small bug, but it's slightly annoying. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 0 0 FalloutNV.esm 1 1 DeadMoney.esm 2 2 HonestHearts.esm 3 3 OldWorldBlues.esm 4 4 LonesomeRoad.esm 5 5 GunRunnersArsenal.esm 6 6 ClassicPack.esm 7 7 MercenaryPack.esm 8 8 TribalPack.esm 9 9 CaravanPack.esm 10 a YUP - Base Game + All DLC.esm 11 b New Vegas Redesigned 3.esm 12 c IWR.esm 13 d Tales of New Reno Redux.esm 14 e FCOMaster.esm 15 f Run the Lucky 38.esm 16 10 Tales of New Reno Redux Episode Zero.esm 17 11 Tales of New Reno Redux Episode Two.esm 18 12 Gomorrah Redesigned v2.esp 19 13 NVInteriors_Core.esm 20 14 NVInteriors_ComboEdition.esm 21 15 NewVegasRailroads.esm 22 16 Bitter Springs Redesigned.esp 23 17 Afterschool Special.esm 24 18 KhanInitiation.esp 25 19 JokerineStripMall.esm 26 1a MikotoBeauty.esm 27 1b SomeguySeries.esm 28 1c Th3OverseerCore.esm Vault24_09.esm 29 1d WMVM.esm 30 1e YUP - NPC Fixes (Base Game + All DLC).esp 31 1f MassiveMerge1v4.esp XFO - 9dc - Enemies - NPC Healing - high.esp XFO - 9a - Enemies - AI revamp.esp XFO - 9da - Enemies - NPC Healing - low.esp XFO - 9db - Enemies - NPC Healing - med.esp Vurt's WFO.esp 32 20 New Vegas Redesigned 3.esp UnlimitedCompanionsFixed.esp 33 21 Simply Uncut - New Vegas.esp Loot Vehicles.esp The Lucky 38 Empire.esp 34 22 NiptonRebuilt.esp The True Revival of Luxury - An Ultra-Luxe Overhaul.esp 35 23 MJVEOutpost.esp 36 24 Eliza.esp Factions Reloaded Legion.esp Primm Reborn.esp Novac Reborn.esp ApocalypticMojave.esp VanGraffOverhaul.esp 37 25 FiveAcesGunShop.esp vault22FloralOverhaul.esp WeaponModsExpanded.esp NorthVegasSquare-Revisited.esp Goodsprings Reborn.esp 38 26 fort mormon fortified.esp populatedcasino.esp TNRChoices.esp Long15RebornALPHA.esp Fiends Three-Card Bounty Expansion.esp IWR - Rebuilt.esp CourierCacheWSE.esp 39 27 Headhunting.esp 40 28 NorthRoad.esp BLMedical.esp Laurens_Bathroom_poetry.esp 41 29 NewVegasBounties.esp 42 2a TheInheritance.esp 43 2b Russell.esp 44 2c KingOfTheRing.esp 45 2d Badmothafucka.esp Revised.esp 46 2e rotfacetoriches.esp HHrespawn.esp NCR Convoy.esp Home On The Wastes.esp PG Camp North.esp 47 2f Player Vertibird.esp NewVegasExtendedMapMarkers.esp Jacobstown Expanded.esp NCRTrooperOverhaul.esp 48 30 Mercy Killing Karma v2.0.esp Strip Wall Billboards.esp 49 31 AutumnLeaves.esp CasinoHeists.esp Weapon Retexture Project.esp VarmintRifle22LR.esp PrimmCarnival.esp 50 32 SU-NV Little Dead Riding Hood Enabler.esp 1stReconArmor_Light.esp 1stReconArmor_LightNonFaction.esp 1stReconArmor_Med.esp 1stReconArmor_MedNonFaction.esp 51 33 arcadeGearCoat.esp Archimedes MK2.esp ArmourRepairKits.esp B101 very simple Rhonda Fix [Missing].esp BennyFaceEmbiggerer.esp 52 34 MikotoBeauty.esp Better Burned Man.esp calyps-sexyfisto.esp Casino Anti Anti Cheat.esp Casino Exchange All.esp Chinese Stealth Armor.esp CombatEnhancer.esp 53 35 Crashed Vertibird Interior.esp FCO - GlowingOne.esp Lucky38 Furniture - Sierra Madre HoloVendor.esp Franz - Commissary At L38.esp GnG Unaggressive Essential Merchants.esp 54 36 searchforcouriers.esp GunNGulp.esp Khan Rumor Fix.esp Vault24_09.esp 55 37 MightyDungeonsTrilogy.esp WelcomeToNewVegas.esp WelcomeToNewVegasLootVehiclesPatch.esp 56 38 Rebuild Ed-E.esp TWO BEARS HIGHFIVING.esp Holster Gear.esp Imp Holdout.esp LonesomeRoadReputationFix.esp 57 39 LootMenu.esp Machienzo-RadioNewVegasFixv11.esp NPCs Can Miss.esp penthouseapartment.esp PerkEveryLevel.esp PersonalHologram.esp Powder Ganger Rep Fix - Gunfight.esp PrimmSign.esp SkippableDLCIntros.esp SPECIALer_DLC03.esp Sprint Mod.esp TMCOTT - Restored.esp ULBonVivantNotStealing.esp UnlimitedCompanions.esp VanGraffHostilityFactionFix.esp VGO-NewVegasRedesigned3-Patch.esp VanGraffHostilityQuestFix.esp Vault_34_better_reactor.esp VVLights.esp WMX-ArenovalisTextures.esp 58 3a Lucky Winner.esp
I'll start off by saying fallout new vegas was my first fallout game and at one point was my favourite game of all time, I am also not going to talk about the gameplay itself too much and try to focus on the story, your actions, and the consequences, also this is about the base game only and not the dlcs, also am on mobile so sorry for the god awful formatting Now fallout new vegas is loved by most of the fallout community, me included, however it is not the best fallout game, either story wise or gameplay wise, obviously fallout 4 is much better gameplay wise. Other than that it is much better than fallout 4, the gameplay of new vegas isn't what I want to focus on, I mainly want to focus on the story, choices, and consequences. Obviously everyone here knows the story of new vegas, you get shot, you wake up, and track down the man who killed you. Then you are given a choice join 4 factions, Caesars legion, NCR, Mr. House, and Yesman. Now people love to shit on fo4 for having 3 factions that are basically the same ending (and rightfully so) but NV also has 3 factions with very similar endings and even missions, all factions require you to either help or destroy the boomers, the BoS, and 3 require you to help or destroy the khans, these are already more similar missions than fo4, but 2 factions are literally exactly the same, those factions being House and Yesman, literally the same missions. And people act like New Vegas really offers you more choices than any other fallout game. Do any of you remember the classic fallout games? The ones that actually offered you choices? Sure fo2 didn't have multiple endings, but despite that, you had more choices in that game than New vegas, and guess what, almost all of your actions had consequences that were more than just one faction being mad at you, you could become a slaver and some very good companions would no longer be available however it was a very good way to make money early game, you vould kill the slavers and free the slaves but you no longer had the option to get easy money quickly, you could free vic and he will tell you the location of vault city, or you could keep him locked up and find it yourself, you could join one of the crime families in new reno, but if you do the other crime families will attack you if you enter their casino, and will not allow you to help them, I could go on and on but that would be pointless. The main story of fallout 2 completely blows new vegas out of the water, you are the chosen one a descendent of the vault dweller a man that once saved the entire wasteland from one of the biggest threats its ever seen, you're village is dying and you are its only hope for its survival, you are told to find the GECK that your tribe believes is some holy artifact that will save the village, when in reality it is just an advanced piece of technology used to make farming easier, you actually had a somewhat realistc motivation, you were trying to save your village and once you get finally get the GECK you return to your village to find it destroyed and your people either kidnapped or killed by the enclave, you then try and find the men responsible for killing and kidnapping your friends and family and destroy them before they try and start a genocide against "undesirables", you infiltrate their base kill the president and overcharge the oil rigs reactor, free your people, and fight the most powerfull character in the entire fallout universe I mean frank horrigan literally ripped a deathclaw in half, with his hands, with his fucking bare hands like holy shit, that mother fucker could fucking cough on legate lanius and lanius would just explode. In New vegas the story is no where near as interesting, and the main characters motivation is not even slightly realistic, I mean seriously some mailman gets shot in the head and by some miracle isn't braindead, and decides to track him down across the mojave to get back the package that he is supposed to deliver? And I know your argument is probably gonna be like "well he needed to deliver the package, otherwise the mojave express or Mr. House would send mercs/securitrons to kill the mailman and take back the package" (and no im not making this up, this is an actual argument I have seen used before.) you seriously want me to believe that the mojave express is really in any position to, well do literally anything, or that Mr. House is gonna bother with some mailman, I mean Mr. House knows that benny took the chip why the fuck doesnt he just send robots to take back the god damn chip. It makes no sense whatsoever. Now I will say that I am not a fallout classic fanboy that thinks the classics are perfect and have nothing wrong with them whatsoever, they do have problems, they are buggy as hell, almost as buggy as fo3, and the gameplay is absolutely terrible, however the story of the classics, specifically fo2 are masterpieces, however that doesn't mean they are perfect, I personally wish that fo2 would have had an ending where you could join or help the enclave or some shit. Anyways I finished writing this at 6:14 AM so uhh please forgive any grammar mistakes and just ignore shit that makes 0 sense, because well thats probably just a mistake that I made when I was too fucking tired.
I noticed that there are a few items in my game that have been replaced by other versions. These include Med-X to morphine and Today's Physician to Cat's Paw magazines. These are not items that are simply added to the game, but replace the items altogether. Trying to obtain either through console commands results in the replaced variants. While the med-x/morphine change is only a name change, the today's physician/cat's paw change replaces the +10 medicine boost with a +5 AP +1 Charisma boost. This makes dealing with medicine skill checks difficult. I've never downloaded any mods specific to these items. I know that this is a small bug, but it's slightly annoying. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 0 0 FalloutNV.esm 1 1 DeadMoney.esm 2 2 HonestHearts.esm 3 3 OldWorldBlues.esm 4 4 LonesomeRoad.esm 5 5 GunRunnersArsenal.esm 6 6 ClassicPack.esm 7 7 MercenaryPack.esm 8 8 TribalPack.esm 9 9 CaravanPack.esm 10 a YUP - Base Game + All DLC.esm 11 b New Vegas Redesigned 3.esm 12 c IWR.esm 13 d Tales of New Reno Redux.esm 14 e FCOMaster.esm 15 f Run the Lucky 38.esm 16 10 Tales of New Reno Redux Episode Zero.esm 17 11 Tales of New Reno Redux Episode Two.esm 18 12 Gomorrah Redesigned v2.esp 19 13 NVInteriors_Core.esm 20 14 NVInteriors_ComboEdition.esm 21 15 NewVegasRailroads.esm 22 16 Bitter Springs Redesigned.esp 23 17 Afterschool Special.esm 24 18 KhanInitiation.esp 25 19 JokerineStripMall.esm 26 1a MikotoBeauty.esm 27 1b SomeguySeries.esm 28 1c Th3OverseerCore.esm Vault24_09.esm 29 1d WMVM.esm 30 1e YUP - NPC Fixes (Base Game + All DLC).esp 31 1f MassiveMerge1v4.esp XFO - 9dc - Enemies - NPC Healing - high.esp XFO - 9a - Enemies - AI revamp.esp XFO - 9da - Enemies - NPC Healing - low.esp XFO - 9db - Enemies - NPC Healing - med.esp Vurt's WFO.esp 32 20 New Vegas Redesigned 3.esp UnlimitedCompanionsFixed.esp 33 21 Simply Uncut - New Vegas.esp Loot Vehicles.esp The Lucky 38 Empire.esp 34 22 NiptonRebuilt.esp The True Revival of Luxury - An Ultra-Luxe Overhaul.esp 35 23 MJVEOutpost.esp 36 24 Eliza.esp Factions Reloaded Legion.esp Primm Reborn.esp Novac Reborn.esp ApocalypticMojave.esp VanGraffOverhaul.esp 37 25 FiveAcesGunShop.esp vault22FloralOverhaul.esp WeaponModsExpanded.esp NorthVegasSquare-Revisited.esp Goodsprings Reborn.esp 38 26 fort mormon fortified.esp populatedcasino.esp TNRChoices.esp Long15RebornALPHA.esp Fiends Three-Card Bounty Expansion.esp IWR - Rebuilt.esp CourierCacheWSE.esp 39 27 Headhunting.esp 40 28 NorthRoad.esp BLMedical.esp Laurens_Bathroom_poetry.esp 41 29 NewVegasBounties.esp 42 2a TheInheritance.esp 43 2b Russell.esp 44 2c KingOfTheRing.esp 45 2d Badmothafucka.esp Revised.esp 46 2e rotfacetoriches.esp HHrespawn.esp NCR Convoy.esp Home On The Wastes.esp PG Camp North.esp 47 2f Player Vertibird.esp NewVegasExtendedMapMarkers.esp Jacobstown Expanded.esp NCRTrooperOverhaul.esp 48 30 Mercy Killing Karma v2.0.esp Strip Wall Billboards.esp 49 31 AutumnLeaves.esp CasinoHeists.esp Weapon Retexture Project.esp VarmintRifle22LR.esp PrimmCarnival.esp 50 32 SU-NV Little Dead Riding Hood Enabler.esp 1stReconArmor_Light.esp 1stReconArmor_LightNonFaction.esp 1stReconArmor_Med.esp 1stReconArmor_MedNonFaction.esp 51 33 arcadeGearCoat.esp Archimedes MK2.esp ArmourRepairKits.esp B101 very simple Rhonda Fix [Missing].esp BennyFaceEmbiggerer.esp 52 34 MikotoBeauty.esp Better Burned Man.esp calyps-sexyfisto.esp Casino Anti Anti Cheat.esp Casino Exchange All.esp Chinese Stealth Armor.esp CombatEnhancer.esp 53 35 Crashed Vertibird Interior.esp FCO - GlowingOne.esp Lucky38 Furniture - Sierra Madre HoloVendor.esp Franz - Commissary At L38.esp GnG Unaggressive Essential Merchants.esp 54 36 searchforcouriers.esp GunNGulp.esp Khan Rumor Fix.esp Vault24_09.esp 55 37 MightyDungeonsTrilogy.esp WelcomeToNewVegas.esp WelcomeToNewVegasLootVehiclesPatch.esp 56 38 Rebuild Ed-E.esp TWO BEARS HIGHFIVING.esp Holster Gear.esp Imp Holdout.esp LonesomeRoadReputationFix.esp 57 39 LootMenu.esp Machienzo-RadioNewVegasFixv11.esp NPCs Can Miss.esp penthouseapartment.esp PerkEveryLevel.esp PersonalHologram.esp Powder Ganger Rep Fix - Gunfight.esp PrimmSign.esp SkippableDLCIntros.esp SPECIALer_DLC03.esp Sprint Mod.esp TMCOTT - Restored.esp ULBonVivantNotStealing.esp UnlimitedCompanions.esp VanGraffHostilityFactionFix.esp VGO-NewVegasRedesigned3-Patch.esp VanGraffHostilityQuestFix.esp Vault_34_better_reactor.esp VVLights.esp WMX-ArenovalisTextures.esp 58 3a Lucky Winner.esp
A Game Mathematician's Perspective on Slot Games and the Casino Manipulation Video
Hi there! I'm a first-time poster inspired by the "How the Casino Industry Manipulates You" video. I'm a Game Mathematician at a big company in the gaming industry, which basically means I create the math for land-based slot games. Here's what I can say about the games we make (and casinos in general):
The gaming industry is the most regulated industry in the United States. Each reputable production company has a QA team or department that tests the RNGs, animations, game rules, art, and just about every component of the EGM (electronic gaming machine). After this process, the game gets sent off to one of the few third-party testing companies to further verify the game. The third and (hopefully) final part of this testing timeline is sending the game to each of its jurisdictions where they will be tested and approved by the jurisdiction's gaming control board. If at ANY point in this process there is something wrong with the game, something that does not have a simple remedy, the game goes back to step 1 and must repeat all of the following steps. This whole process takes about 6 months for a project that passes all the steps.
Trends in gaming tend to last, at least for the last 6 years or so. It takes approximately 1.5-2 years between having the concept for a game to releasing it (of course there are exceptions to this rule, but this is ideal). So if a game company is piggy-backing on a successful title or game mechanic from their own company or a competitor, and if multiple companies are doing so, then that style of game will see support later on. Asian themes have taken off in the last decade, and now each new game either starts out with an Asian theme or has a clone (same math, different art) with Asian theming. The hold-and-spin game mechanic (where certain symbols stay on a the screen and other ones re-spin) has been dominating casinos for 5 years now, and the trend will most likely not stop.
Production companies try to get as much information as possible from the casino floors as possible. There are monthly third-party reports from gaming research companies that work with many casinos across the United States and other countries that companies pay to see game performance compared to house average (and other stats) for different parameters (i.e. newly indexed games, leased games, for-sale games, etc.). Casinos also subscribe to these reports and may base their next placement decisions on them. There are also certain statistics that production companies can get that are private, but those are often limited in scope and are left to much interpretation.
The sales departments of production companies strategize to help casinos make their purchases and literal placement on the casino floor. Some games should be put next to ones from different game families, and others should just stand out apart from any other game (not live on a "bank" with non-family games). The positioning of a game on a casino floor can certainly make or break its performance. The merchandise/signage for a game also comes into play at this stage. Players might be taken in to play a game if it has a popping LED sign with animations rather than a similar game without as much presence.
From a game design perspective, we try as hard as possible to make sure players will come back to the EGM on their next casino trip. We aim to minimize the bad experiences a player can have while keeping a eye on how many great experiences we provide. We perform session analysis on both statistical and anecdotal levels to see if we are meeting the goals for that specific project. We also often think of the players we are trying to target. "Will the player attracted to this game put in $40 or $400?" Ultimately we are trying to give them what they want, while still taking their money. Entertainment players will want to see bonuses and cool features happen whereas gambler players will want that one super great hit with plenty of mediocre wins in-between.
There are MANY myths related to slot games. First of all, "timing" isn't real, at least for modern games (up to the last 20 years or so). An RNG is pulled with each press of the "bet" button. Furthermore each wagered spin (each bet made) is NOT dependent in any way/shape/form on the previous spin's outcome. There is one exception to this rule in one mechanic, but the mathematics of it are hard to explain in layman's terms. Slot machines don't rubber-band, they can't switch to a losing streak after a win streak. Essentially, everything is random when it comes to a slot game, so don't think otherwise.
Thank you for reading my novel. P.S. I'm from Reno, NV. For the record, 1) it's pronounced Neh-VAAAH-Duh and 2) our casinos are pretty split between the Friedman design (Circus-Circus, El Dorado, Peppermill) and the Adult Playground design (GSR, Atlantis, Silver Legacy).
[LONG] My Experience with Las Vegas Shooter Stephen Paddock - His Brother Says Revenge was the Motive and So Do I (includes links to news articles, credible web sites and blogs, and video interviews that back up every element of the story]
This is an email recently sent to journalists, attorneys and others. The two people addressed briefly at the beginning of this Email are a Paralegal at the Connecticut law firm of Koskoff, Koskoff & Bieder https://www.koskoff.com who are suing gun manufacturers as part of their overall lawsuit strategy and doing the same in relation to Sandy Hook and independent journalist Mike Turber, one of the producers of the upcoming documentary Vegas Wrong, along with Ramsey Denison https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1774444/?ref_=nv_sr_1?ref_=nv_sr_1 , producer of the award winning documentary What Happened in Vegas https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6615426/?ref_=nm_knf_i2 Hi Lorena, The following is a very good overview of what I know of what happened in Las Vegas on October 1, 2017 - and I venture to say I know way more valid information than 99% plus of the population about this subject. It was originally sent to Mike Turber months ago. I have added comments where needed, but for the most part it was already very complete and well documented. Please let me know you received this, there are many links and a few images so not all email systems will treat this as serious correspondence. Thanks, Rodney Peterson Hi Mike, A week before you posted the videos with Eric (Paddock, Stephen Paddock's brother), I posted roughly 120 to 130 posts on Twitter in succession with links to back up everything I say. These are the original writings I culled those posts from. Eric Paddock interviews for Vegas Wrong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPEmD5KKvb0 (Long) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diofrf4nwaE&t=9s (Short) On his last day on Earth, just hours before committing the Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Route 91 Harvest Festival mass shootings in which he killed 59 people, including himself, Stephen Paddock won $860,000 playing video poker. Independent Journalist and Investigator Mike Turber has seen the official records. (while this is true, he LOST even more than that. This gives you an idea of just how fast paced and pressure filled becoming an addicted gambler playing video poker for up to 14 hours a day year-round can be). There is more about that specifically and about Mike Turber later in this email. Rodney Peterson You can also find an extended interview with the shooters brother Eric Paddock, who is speaking through Mike Turber on this video, and myself on the You Tube page of Weg Oag, who has posted many videos about the Las Vegas shootings here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zR1rBjtwHI&t=5s All of that is true. If you read my comments beneath, and there are many of them, you'll see that I've answered all the inconsistencies and reasonable objections anyone brought up. All of the interview and all of my writing is first and foremost based on the following. Without this, it's very unlikely I would have remembered meeting Stephen Paddock, let alone what he said with regards to wishing to extract revenge on the casinos through extreme violence. I did not remember it right away, it took several days after I read the comment below and it was not very clear at first. It took probably right around a week to actually remember everything accurately. Here it is copied and pasted from the Los Angeles Times website at which it was published on October 17, 2017 - two and a half weeks after the shootings where it was posted after an article about Jesus Campos appearing on the Ellen DeGeneres Show: robert.roberts0361 1 year (s) ago Quite a while back talked to that guy in an Edmonton casino about how the casinos cheat their patrons. Not a Muslim terrorist thing at all. Same guy Filipino girlfriend. Lived in a hotel in Vegas. Asked him why he came to an out of the way place like Edmonton. He said just to gamble. He mentioned he was a retired accountant. Talked about nothing you can do about the casinos cheating if you tried to sue they would bury you with their lawyers. He said he tried that once. He said he was going to do something about it. He mentioned something about a AR 15. I said I didn't know what that was (at the time) I'm retired military what would that be in military talk? He said M16. When I left I thought that guy is an American so he can't get guns in Canada. Can anyone figure out the dates he was up here. I recall he said he drove in from British Columbia and was on a 2 day stopover from a 19 day cruise when I met him. Maybe 30th September 2016??? Compare that with my conversation with him, which started as just being at the same Blackjack table where he and Marilou Danley were in the Excalibur, staring at me for half an hour or so while I played, then complimenting me on winning money as he noticed the mathematical progressions of my betting patterns, then his bizarre rant about the casinos cheating, and finally this exchange when talk of cheating became talk of revenge: "How? How are you going to get revenge on the casinos? They'll have you before you get ten feet on the floor!" "LOOK ALL AROUND YOU! WHADDAYA SEE?! WINDOWS!" Couple that with having nearly the same set of mental issues as Paddock. The major difference is I became obsessed with music and movies, not guns and not gambling 14 hours a day. I'm sure there are other differences as well, my contact with him was limited, but in retrospect, there was a ton of common ground. The types of personalities he and I have are not in the slightest bit desirable or advantageous. Especially when every effort is made to deny a problem even exists, as is the case with him. Anyone with these same issues and real introspection abilities would never have carried this out, they would look inside themselves first. He couldn't even blame himself for his own gambling issues, let alone anything else. How he even thought for a minute he would survive such a heinous act uncaught, unpunished and with impunity is probably pretty good proof he couldn't ever accept the reality of his predicament and mental disabilities. The reality is from what I know of him he didn't attempt to deal with problems in any constructive way and just let the anger keep building, it's toxic. Lots of people with these same issues snap violently and always will. Largely because of the introspection he apparently lacked, I know I would never get away with such an act, even if I wanted to, even on a much smaller scale, no matter how much I tried or wanted to. I knew immediately that comment was very important, it literally checked many of the boxes of what I instinctively believed, as well as had been originally reported, and urged the writer to contact the FBI. I had no idea when I read it I would have a similar story to tell, to say that was shocking when I began to remember my own encounter with Stephen Paddock is a huge understatement. You can find it at the comments posted underneath the linked Los Angeles Times article here. To find it click where it says Be the first to comment (I don't know why it's set up like that, but it is) when you do comments will open. Keep clicking until the comment above appears. Here is the link to the article: http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-jesus-campos-20171017-story.html It's extremely detailed as you can see, plus EVERYTHING FITS. A couple of important points - a retired military person would not have to know what an AR15 is, maybe they didn't have a huge interest in guns. And maybe they knew what it was but didn't know what it was called exactly. And the part about the two day stopover from Vancouver is irrelevant. ALL 19 day cruises to Alaska end with a two day stopover in Vancouver. That means Stephen Paddock had already disembarked, and did not have to go back to the ship at all. EXTREMELY IMPORTANT AND SOMETHING THE FBI COULD EASILY DO IF THEY WANTED TO GET TO THE TRUTH OF THE MOTIVE >>>>This would be easy to prove by checking passenger manifests for 19 day Alaska cruises that began in early to mid-September 2016 from the port of Vancouver. My experience with Stephen Paddock was very similar and is written in detail, particularly at Instagram. Telephone, text or Twitter are the best ways to contact me directly. I suspect he has aspergers as I do. That explains his obsession with numbers and math. That was why he wanted to talk to me - he saw I was using a mathematical system to win money. No one, before or since, has ever wanted to speak to me about using progressive math to win money, and that’s counting hundreds and hundreds of Casino Blackjack games. Very few people ever even notice it. Being obsessed with activities and collecting stuff is part of the aspbergers, I believe, another part is the math. He collected guns and gambled 14 hours a day at times. My obsession is not about those things, it’s about collecting music, movies and television series, on every conceivable format at one time or another. But it’s part of the same pattern of aspbegers. He’s unfriendly, he was annoyed I sat down at the same table he was playing at. He stared at me for a good half hour while we played, hardly saying a word. So he was both annoyed and studying the math I was using to place bets, which I didn’t know until after the game had ended for me, and he started talking about how I using math to win money. He thought that was smart. He is incapable of blaming himself for his problems. He lacks introspection. Losing money at gambling is not his fault, the casinos are cheating him. That’s what he told me and I disagreed. The casinos don’t need to cheat. He flies off the handle quickly. Disagreeing with him sent him into more of a rant about the casinos cheating, getting revenge, and finally when I asked how he was going to do that, yelling about shooting out of windows onto the Las Vegas Strip. It didn’t make a whole lot of sense, and even though he mentioned he lived at Mandalay Bay, which sounded like bullshit and I pretty much didn’t believe him, we were at The Excalibur which I’ve never thought of as a place with large windows, so it sounded even more ridiculous. All in all, it sounded like a fantasy of revenge that would never happen. Yet, clearly, 15 months before he did it, he already had a clear plan of how to proceed. I believe that over the next 15 months it gelled from an insane idea to a workable plan. But he still made a ton of mistakes. Otherwise, if he knew what he was doing when he shot at the jet fuel tanks, it could have been way, way worse. Just as an example of how inefficient the entire plan was. It is extremely frustrating not to get real traction on this part of the story being reported, and it seems to be a deliberate decision possibly made by people in power at various institutions that have an interest in not divulging these details. These include MGM Resorts and other casinos, for certain, which in turn have a large degree of influence over the FBI and Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, as well as media outlets, especially the Las Vegas Review Journal which is owned by casino magnate Sheldon Adelson. There are new stories being investigated and confirmed that concern other angles of this story that are not being disclosed by MGM Resorts. This includes MGM gifting security guard Jesus Campos with Real Estate in the form of Las Vegas condos to sign an NDA and not talk about the events, including that management knew there was a huge quantity of guns in the room but chose to ignore them because of Stephen Paddock's High Roller Status. This is according to his former brother-in-law, Luis Castro, and is partially documented in the article mentioned below. See this article, one of many written by Doug Poppa. It’s important to note his background is in casino security, while my story revolves around my experience with Stephen Paddock, and examines both psychology and a very strong case of explaining the motive as revenge against the casinos, which is what he told me in person. http://baltimorepostexaminer.com/exclusive-mgm-resorts-international-buys-mandalay-bay-security-officer-jesus-campos-silence-with-all-expenses-paid-trips-condos-in-exchange-for-nda/2018/12/09 Here are a couple of newer posts I’ve written at You Tube with relevant information about what Stephen Paddock told me: Regarding what Paddock shouted “LOOK ALL AROUND YOU! WHADDAYA SEE?! WINDOWS!!” and Doug Poppa saying he’s never seen windows in the Excalibur, he wasn’t talking about that casino. He was talking about the entire strip. It was pretty obvious. In fact, when he said it the image that came to mind was that he would shoot out of the windows of a central location, like Aria, not Mandalay Bay and certainly not Excalibur. Although he did tell me he lived at Mandalay Bay, which just added to how nuts I thought he was. People do not live at Mandalay Bay, and yet, he actually was very close to that, but I didn’t believe him. Naturally, when I remembered all this I felt horribly guilty I never reported it. But now I know thanks to the efforts of Doug Poppa interviewing Luis Castro it wouldn’t have made any difference at all. Mandalay Bay knew about the guns in the room and ignored them. They weren’t about to take my word over his no matter what I told them on July 6, 2016. He was a high roller, I was not. I didn’t know he was a high roller, of course, I just thought he was a disheveled angry nut. The interview also includes comments by Eric Paddock, who tries to negate my testimony in two ways. First, he claims Stephen Paddock didn’t play table games. Second, he tries to negate my memory of Stephen Paddock with a beard and mustache by saying he’s clean shaven. In both cases in the comments section I link to articles and photos that prove he did play Blackjack - for up to $2500 a hand. Photos of Stephen Paddock with a beard and mustache are easily found searching Google for images. All reasonable objections and any time I misspoke during the interview are addressed in my comments - there are a lot of them. A lot of people asked questions, but some were redundant and others just will not accept that this tragedy was not a conspiracy, or that it didn’t happen. Of course, it happened. And it wasn’t a conspiracy. Here is an early article from October 7, 2017 printed in the Las Vegas Sun confirming Stephen Paddock did indeed play Blackjack: https://lasvegassun.com/news/2017/oct/07/dealers-lv-gunman-paddock-would-spend-long-hours-p/ Excerpts from that article specifically about Blackjack: When one blackjack table dealer at the D Las Vegas first saw Stephen Paddock’s picture on television last week, she thought it was Paddock that had been shot — not the other way around. Upon later finding out Paddock was responsible for the deaths of 58 attendees and the injuries of nearly 500 more at last Sunday’s Route 91 Harvest Festival on the Las Vegas Strip, the dealer said she was surprised that a man she knew to be calm yet reclusive was responsible for the largest mass shooting in modern United States history. “He wasn’t the nicest guy, but he never came across as threatening,” said the dealer, who asked not to be identified. “Unpleasant in general, but he didn’t go out of his way to be rude or go after other people.” “I never would have thought he was capable of something like this, not him,” she added. The dealer was one of several to speak with the Sun about Paddock, who owned homes in Mesquite and Reno but spent his retirement years and the final weeks of life frequenting the tables and machines of downtown and Strip casinos. An avid blackjack player, Paddock also played video poker, interviewed dealers said. His girlfriend, Marilou Danley, enjoyed playing video slots when the two came to the casino together. Another female dealer at the D Las Vegas, who requested anonymity, said Paddock had been a regular at the casino for “many years,” gambling as many as four days a week and sometimes spending an entire afternoon shift between gaming tables and the upstairs video poker room. Despite betting up to $2,500 per hand on high-limit blackjack tables, Paddock was a poor tipper at first, she said. But he eventually came around when she gave him a hard time for “being cheap.” “I told him, ‘Steve, it would be nice if you started tipping me,’” she said. “From there on, he always left a fair tip.” Three other dealers at the D Las Vegas said they last remembered Paddock at the casino on Sept. 26, just five days before he opened fire from his 32nd floor hotel room onto the 22,000 attendees of the country music festival. SOME OF THE FOLLOWING IS REPEATED. THERE ARE OTHER AS YET NEW TO THIS EMAIL ANGLES OF THE STORY FOLLOWING THE REPEATED BACKGROUND INFORMATION. Independent Investigator and Journalist Mike Turber has seen official records confirming Stephen Paddock won $860,000 on September 30, 2017, just hours before he committed the Las Vegas shootings. However, that figure doesn’t include losses for the day, which are right around $890,000. Mike Turber, along with Ramsey Denison, who produced the documentary What Happened In Vegas, have interviewed me extensively on camera and in person. Mike Turber has stated that he observed my body language and other factors as a sort of lie detector test to determine if I was telling the truth without my knowledge which he states in that You Tube video. His conclusion is that either I am telling the truth or I believe I’m telling the truth. Mike Turber can be contacted here: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) I believe, based on behavior, both Stephen Paddock and I have similar mental illnesses and Asperger’s syndrome. I believe that’s why he instinctively talked to me and noticed I was using the same type of mathematical formulas he did and was familiar with. (It works too 98% of the time the problem is it doesn’t work 100% of the time and that’s what you need). So was he crazy? Of course he was crazy! So am I. But instead of guns, my obsessions are artistic – movies, music, media production, and the like. There’s nothing I can do about the Asperger’s or High Functioning Autism that’s part of this. Like him I’ve had it all my life. You cannot fake this. I would never have even remembered meeting Stephen Paddock, let alone what he said to me about wanting revenge against the casinos if I hadn’t come across this post written after an article about Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Campos appearing on the Ellen show. Everything here fits: robert.roberts0361 1 year(s) ago Quite a while back talked to that guy in an Edmonton casino about how the casinos cheat their patrons. Not a Muslim terrorist thing at all. Same guy Filipino girlfriend. Lived in a hotel in Vegas. Asked him why he came to an out of the way place like Edmonton. He said just to gamble. He mentioned he was a retired accountant. Talked about nothing you can do about the casinos cheating if you tried to sue they would bury you with their lawyers. He said he tried that once. He said he was going to do something about it.

When I left I thought that guy is an American so he can't get guns in Canada. Can anyone figure out the dates he was up here. I recall he said he drove in from British Columbia and was on a 2 day stopover from a 19 day cruise when I met him. Maybe 30th September 2016???

Here is the link to the article: http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-jesus-campos-20171017-story.html It's extremely detailed as you can see, plus EVERYTHING FITS. A couple of important points - a retired military person would not have to know what an AR15 is, maybe they didn't have a huge interest in guns. Or maybe he knew what it was but didn't know what it was called exactly. And the part about the two day stopover from Vancouver is irrelevant. ALL 19 day cruises to Alaska end with a two day stopover in Vancouver. That means Stephen Paddock and Marilou Danley had already disembarked, and did not have to go back to the cruise ship at all. AND HOW TO PROVE THE EDMONTON STORY IS TRUE: Any FBI investigator or private investigator could prove if what Stephen Paddock told that commenter is true by checking passenger manifests for 19 day Alaska cruises that began in early to mid-September 2016. Unless Stephen Paddock and Marilou Danley were on that cruise, this person couldn’t have possibly known about it unless he was directly told by Stephen Paddock, as he says. THE FOLLOWING IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT TO MOTIVE. THIS IS WHAT STEPHEN PADDOCK MEANT WITH REGARDS TO THE CASINOS CHEATING, NOT TRADITIONAL CHEATING. I don’t play Video Poker, so I had no idea what he meant by his talking about the casinos cheating that morning unless he had explained it to me, which he didn’t do. Here is another recent You Tube post I’ve written which details more about Stephen Paddock and Video Poker with links to yet more relevant information. There are several posts by myself near the bottom of the thread. Just like on my Instagram page, Rodney4K, you can see how the details of the memory of meeting Stephen Paddock was not at that time completely clear and changed as I remembered more and more of what happened. There are very rare video poker machines known as 9 over 6 Jacks or Better. If played perfectly they give the player 100.8% payout. But that's no guarantee. Someone figured out that in order to have a 90% chance of winning $140,000 you need at least a six million dollar bankroll. There is a whole thread about this and Paddock in one of Anthony Curtis columns on the Las Vegas Advisor website. Of course, beating the house long term is close to impossible. Even the Sheriffs department admits Paddock had lost a considerable amount of wealth prior to the shootings. There's also a report that he won $860,000 on the day of the shootings. But that figure doesn't include losses, which are reported to be some $890,000. Mike Turber knows the details of this. I have several comments in that article. Just like on my Instagram page, if you read them, you'll see how they change more and more as I start to remember meeting Stephen Paddock and what he said about getting revenge on the casinos. It was a very bizarre few days as that memory returned: https://www.lasvegasadvisor.com/gambling-with-an-edge/the-shooter-gambler-steven-paddock/ Because that blog is about gambling, many of the posts are about how much Stephen Paddock did gamble, his odds of winning and related subjects. It is this post from the above thread that appears to be the most accurate about the level of Video Poker Stephen Paddock played nearly every day: What everyone is forgetting is what kind of bankroll is required when playing 9/6 Jacks or Better at $125 a hand. According to Video Poker for Winners if you bet $125 a hand and you get 0.5% slot club return, which I think is generous for a strip club casino in 2015, you need over $6 million bankroll. And that is for a chance of going broke 10% of the time! If the average gambler can make this calculation so can a casino. There’s no way a casino is going to give you free rooms, food, shows, etc and at the same time let you win $5 million over the year! You can see how complicated it gets. Did he win the $5 million? Sure, probably several times. But at a cost that probably was more in the neighborhood of after 6 million dollars of losses. Another insightful commenter provided this information about changes in tax law under Donald Trump which would be something that could very much upset Stephen Paddock to the point of taking these drastic actions: I am surprised nobody has commented on an obvious angle to the Shooter’s profile. He had millions in Royal Fushes each year. At Tax Time those wins were undoubtedly counter balanced by his losses. Anthony Curtis related in the latest issue of LVA that the last 2 books purchased were about Taxes and Gambling Law. Under the Trump tax plan guess how much will be allowed to be written off as losses?? ZERO!!!!! That deduction dies and so with it will any AP (Advantage Play) play on VP. The Shooter was an accountant, he had to have knowledge of that reality. Anyone who plays VP, at any level above a $1200 Royal, would have to be an idiot to be in action under those conditions. The winning sum of $5,000,000 has been used in previous posts, Can you imagine having won $5,000,000 and subsequently losing that back plus an additional $500,000? You would not only be stuck the $500,000 but also owe the IRS another $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 in taxes on your non deductible winnings. How come nobody in the casinos is screaming about this? It will kill destroy $1 and up Slot and VP play. According to Mike Turber, who says he has seen the records, Stephen Paddock won $860,000 on September 30, 2017, just before the shootings. But, he also very likely lost $890,000 that very same day, according to the full accounting. This is also very important, in that besides my testimony of what happened when I met Stephen Paddock and when Robert Roberts met Stephen Paddock, here is a CNN article quoting his Caesars Palace host that says that when they switched out the high payoff machines, he stopped coming altogether. This helps give credence to the motive of being angry at the casinos, wanting revenge, and his belief the casinos were cheating. They don't cheat in the traditional sense - they don't have to, and that's why I disagreed with him and why he became angry. But, in his mind, switching out the higher payoff Video Poker machines for the ones that gave the house a better edge after years and years of playing them-I can see how he would equate that with cheating: https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/16/us/las-vegas-shooting-documents/index.html This is an excerpt from that CNN article: A man who worked for Caesars Entertainment who had known Paddock for years said Paddock was a regular guest for several years but Caesars took out his favorite video poker machines. Paddock was a skilled gambler, the casino host said, and he stopped coming once those games were taken out. The host said Paddock was an odd guy who either came to one of the Caesars properties alone or with his girlfriend, Marilou Danley. Danley was in the Philippines at the time of the shooting, and police said they don't think she was involved. Paddock, who killed himself, acted alone, police have said. The host said there was one incident years ago in which Paddock yelled at him over late luggage, something the host thought peculiar. When asked to specify why he thought Paddock was odd, the host said: "He was just weird." I'm also on Instagram where you can find more information.

My Experience with Stephen Paddock the Las Vegas Shooter and a very strong case of the motive being Revenge
The two people addressed briefly at the beginning of this Email are a Paralegal at the Connecticut law firm of Koskoff, Koskoff & Bieder https://www.koskoff.com/ who are suing gun manufacturers as part of their overall lawsuit strategy and doing the same in relation to Sandy Hook and independent journalist Mike Turber, one of the producers of the upcoming documentary Vegas Wrong, along with Ramsey Denison https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1774444/?ref_=nv_sr_1?ref_=nv_sr_1 , producer of the award winning documentary What Happened in Vegas https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6615426/?ref_=nm_knf_i2 Hi Lorena, The following is a very good overview of what I know of what happened in Las Vegas on October 1, 2017 - and I venture to say I know way more valid information than 99% plus of the population about this subject. It was originally sent to Mike Turber months ago. I have added comments where needed, but for the most part it was already very complete and well documented. Please let me know you received this, there are many links and a few images so not all email systems will treat this as serious correspondence. Thanks, Rodney Peterson Hi Mike, A week before you posted the videos with Eric (Paddock, Stephen Paddock's brother), I posted roughly 120 to 130 posts on Twitter in succession with links to back up everything I say. These are the original writings I culled those posts from. Eric Paddock interviews for Vegas Wrong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPEmD5KKvb0 (Long) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diofrf4nwaE&t=9s (Short) On his last day on Earth, just hours before committing the Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Route 91 Harvest Festival mass shootings in which he killed 59 people, including himself, Stephen Paddock won $860,000 playing video poker. Independent Journalist and Investigator Mike Turber has seen the official records. (while this is true, he LOST even more than that. This gives you an idea of just how fast paced and pressure filled becoming an addicted gambler playing video poker for up to 14 hours a day year-round can be). There is more about that specifically and about Mike Turber later in this email. Rodney Peterson You can also find an extended interview with the shooters brother Eric Paddock, who is speaking through Mike Turber on this video, and myself on the You Tube page of Weg Oag, who has posted many videos about the Las Vegas shootings here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zR1rBjtwHI&t=5s All of that is true. If you read my comments beneath, and there are many of them, you'll see that I've answered all the inconsistencies and reasonable objections anyone brought up. All of the interview and all of my writing is first and foremost based on the following. Without this, it's very unlikely I would have remembered meeting Stephen Paddock, let alone what he said with regards to wishing to extract revenge on the casinos through extreme violence. I did not remember it right away, it took several days after I read the comment below and it was not very clear at first. It took probably right around a week to actually remember everything accurately. Here it is copied and pasted from the Los Angeles Times website at which it was published on October 17, 2017 - two and a half weeks after the shootings where it was posted after an article about Jesus Campos appearing on the Ellen DeGeneres Show: robert.roberts0361 1 year (s) ago Quite a while back talked to that guy in an Edmonton casino about how the casinos cheat their patrons. Not a Muslim terrorist thing at all. Same guy Filipino girlfriend. Lived in a hotel in Vegas. Asked him why he came to an out of the way place like Edmonton. He said just to gamble. He mentioned he was a retired accountant. Talked about nothing you can do about the casinos cheating if you tried to sue they would bury you with their lawyers. He said he tried that once. He said he was going to do something about it. He mentioned something about a AR 15. I said I didn't know what that was (at the time) I'm retired military what would that be in military talk? He said M16. When I left I thought that guy is an American so he can't get guns in Canada. Can anyone figure out the dates he was up here. I recall he said he drove in from British Columbia and was on a 2 day stopover from a 19 day cruise when I met him. Maybe 30th September 2016??? Compare that with my conversation with him, which started as just being at the same Blackjack table where he and Marilou Danley were in the Excalibur, staring at me for half an hour or so while I played, Then complimenting me on winning money as he noticed the mathematical progressions of my betting patterns, then his bizarre rant about the casinos cheating, and finally this exchange when talk of cheating became talk of revenge: "How? How are you going to get revenge on the casinos? They'll have you before you get ten feet on the floor!" "LOOK ALL AROUND YOU! WHADDAYA SEE?! WINDOWS!" Couple that with having nearly the same set of mental issues as Paddock. The major difference is I became obsessed with music and movies, not guns and not gambling 14 hours a day. I'm sure there are other differences as well, my contact with him was limited, but in retrospect, there was a ton of common ground. The types of personalities he and I have are not in the slightest bit desirable or advantageous. Especially when every effort is made to deny a problem even exists, as is the case with him. Anyone with these same issues and real introspection abilities would never have carried this out, they would look inside themselves first. He couldn't even blame himself for his own gambling issues, let alone anything else. How he even thought for a minute he would survive such a heinous act uncaught, unpunished and with impunity is probably pretty good proof he couldn't ever accept the reality of his predicament and mental disabilities. The reality is from what I know of him he didn't attempt to deal with problems in any constructive way and just let the anger keep building, it's toxic. Lots of people with these same issues snap violently and always will. Largely because of the introspection he apparently lacked, I know I would never get away with such an act, even if I wanted to, even on a much smaller scale, no matter how much I tried or wanted to. I knew immediately that comment was very important, it literally checked many of the boxes of what I instinctively believed, as well as had been originally reported, and urged the writer to contact the FBI. I had no idea when I read it I would have a similar story to tell, to say that was shocking when I began to remember my own encounter with Stephen Paddock is a huge understatement. You can find it at the comments posted underneath the linked Los Angeles Times article here. To find it click where it says Be the first to comment (I don't know why it's set up like that, but it is) when you do comments will open. Keep clicking until the comment above appears. Here is the link to the article: http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-jesus-campos-20171017-story.html It's extremely detailed as you can see, plus EVERYTHING FITS. A couple of important points - a retired military person would not have to know what an AR15 is, maybe they didn't have a huge interest in guns. And maybe they knew what it was but didn't know what it was called exactly. And the part about the two day stopover from Vancouver is irrelevant. ALL 19 day cruises to Alaska end with a two day stopover in Vancouver. That means Stephen Paddock had already disembarked, and did not have to go back to the ship at all. EXTREMELY IMPORTANT AND SOMETHING THE FBI COULD EASILY DO IF THEY WANTED TO GET TO THE TRUTH OF THE MOTIVE >>>>This would be easy to prove by checking passenger manifests for 19 day Alaska cruises that began in early to mid-September 2016 from the port of Vancouver. My experience with Stephen Paddock was very similar and is written in detail, particularly at Instagram. Telephone, text or Twitter are the best ways to contact me directly. I suspect he has aspergers as I do. That explains his obsession with numbers and math. That was why he wanted to talk to me - he saw I was using a mathematical system to win money. No one, before or since, has ever wanted to speak to me about using progressive math to win money, and that’s counting hundreds and hundreds of Casino Blackjack games. Very few people ever even notice it. Being obsessed with activities and collecting stuff is part of the aspbergers, I believe, another part is the math. He collected guns and gambled 14 hours a day at times. My obsession is not about those things, it’s about collecting music, movies and television series, on every conceivable format at one time or another. But it’s part of the same pattern of aspbegers. He’s unfriendly, he was annoyed I sat down at the same table he was playing at. He stared at me for a good half hour while we played, hardly saying a word. So he was both annoyed and studying the math I was using to place bets, which I didn’t know until after the game had ended for me, and he started talking about how I using math to win money. He thought that was smart. He is incapable of blaming himself for his problems. He lacks introspection. Losing money at gambling is not his fault, the casinos are cheating him. That’s what he told me and I disagreed. The casinos don’t need to cheat. He flies off the handle quickly. Disagreeing with him sent him into more of a rant about the casinos cheating, getting revenge, and finally when I asked how he was going to do that, yelling about shooting out of windows onto the Las Vegas Strip. It didn’t make a whole lot of sense, and even though he mentioned he lived at Mandalay Bay, which sounded like bullshit and I pretty much didn’t believe him, we were at The Excalibur which I’ve never thought of as a place with large windows, so it sounded even more ridiculous. All in all, it sounded like a fantasy of revenge that would never happen. Yet, clearly, 15 months before he did it, he already had a clear plan of how to proceed. I believe that over the next 15 months it gelled from an insane idea to a workable plan. But he still made a ton of mistakes. Otherwise, if he knew what he was doing when he shot at the jet fuel tanks, it could have been way, way worse. Just as an example of how inefficient the entire plan was. It is extremely frustrating not to get real traction on this part of the story being reported, and it seems to be a deliberate decision possibly made by people in power at various institutions that have an interest in not divulging these details. These include MGM Resorts and other casinos, for certain, which in turn have a large degree of influence over the FBI and Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, as well as media outlets, especially the Las Vegas Review Journal which is owned by casino magnate Sheldon Adelson. There are new stories being investigated and confirmed that concern other angles of this story that are not being disclosed by MGM Resorts. This includes MGM gifting security guard Jesus Campos with Real Estate in the form of Las Vegas condos to sign an NDA and not talk about the events, including that management knew there was a huge quantity of guns in the room but chose to ignore them because of Stephen Paddock's High Roller Status. See this article, one of many written by Doug Poppa. It’s important to note his background is in casino security, while my story revolves around my experience with Stephen Paddock, and examines both psychology and a very strong case of explaining the motive as revenge against the casinos, which is what he told me in person. http://baltimorepostexaminer.com/exclusive-mgm-resorts-international-buys-mandalay-bay-security-officer-jesus-campos-silence-with-all-expenses-paid-trips-condos-in-exchange-for-nda/2018/12/09 Here are a couple of newer posts I’ve written at You Tube with relevant information about what Stephen Paddock told me: Regarding what Paddock shouted “LOOK ALL AROUND YOU! WHADDAYA SEE?! WINDOWS!!” and Doug Poppa saying he’s never seen windows in the Excalibur, he wasn’t talking about that casino. He was talking about the entire strip. It was pretty obvious. In fact, when he said it the image that came to mind was that he would shoot out of the windows of a central location, like Aria, not Mandalay Bay and certainly not Excalibur. Although he did tell me he lived at Mandalay Bay, which just added to how nuts I thought he was. People do not live at Mandalay Bay, and yet, he actually was very close to that, but I didn’t believe him. Naturally, when I remembered all this I felt horribly guilty I never reported it. But now I know thanks to the efforts of Doug Poppa interviewing Luis Castro it wouldn’t have made any difference at all. Mandalay Bay knew about the guns in the room and ignored them. They weren’t about to take my word over his no matter what I told them on July 6, 2016. He was a high roller, I was not. I didn’t know he was a high roller, of course, I just thought he was a disheveled angry nut. The interview also includes comments by Eric Paddock, who tries to negate my testimony in two ways. First, he claims Stephen Paddock didn’t play table games. Second, he tries to negate my memory of Stephen Paddock with a beard and mustache by saying he’s clean shaven. In both cases in the comments section I link to articles and photos that prove he did play Blackjack - for up to $2500 a hand. Photos of Stephen Paddock with a beard and mustache are easily found searching Google for images. All reasonable objections and any time I misspoke during the interview are addressed in my comments - there are a lot of them. A lot of people asked questions, but some were redundant and others just will not accept that this tragedy was not a conspiracy, or that it didn’t happen. Of course, it happened. And it wasn’t a conspiracy. Here is an early article from October 7, 2017 printed in the Las Vegas Sun confirming Stephen Paddock did indeed play Blackjack: https://lasvegassun.com/news/2017/oct/07/dealers-lv-gunman-paddock-would-spend-long-hours-p/ Excerpts from that article specifically about Blackjack: When one blackjack table dealer at the D Las Vegas first saw Stephen Paddock’s picture on television last week, she thought it was Paddock that had been shot — not the other way around. Upon later finding out Paddock was responsible for the deaths of 58 attendees and the injuries of nearly 500 more at last Sunday’s Route 91 Harvest Festival on the Las Vegas Strip, the dealer said she was surprised that a man she knew to be calm yet reclusive was responsible for the largest mass shooting in modern United States history. “He wasn’t the nicest guy, but he never came across as threatening,” said the dealer, who asked not to be identified. “Unpleasant in general, but he didn’t go out of his way to be rude or go after other people.” “I never would have thought he was capable of something like this, not him,” she added. The dealer was one of several to speak with the Sun about Paddock, who owned homes in Mesquite and Reno but spent his retirement years and the final weeks of life frequenting the tables and machines of downtown and Strip casinos. An avid blackjack player, Paddock also played video poker, interviewed dealers said. His girlfriend, Marilou Danley, enjoyed playing video slots when the two came to the casino together. Another female dealer at the D Las Vegas, who requested anonymity, said Paddock had been a regular at the casino for “many years,” gambling as many as four days a week and sometimes spending an entire afternoon shift between gaming tables and the upstairs video poker room. Despite betting up to $2,500 per hand on high-limit blackjack tables, Paddock was a poor tipper at first, she said. But he eventually came around when she gave him a hard time for “being cheap.” “I told him, ‘Steve, it would be nice if you started tipping me,’” she said. “From there on, he always left a fair tip.” Three other dealers at the D Las Vegas said they last remembered Paddock at the casino on Sept. 26, just five days before he opened fire from his 32nd floor hotel room onto the 22,000 attendees of the country music festival. SOME OF THE FOLLOWING IS REPEATED. THERE ARE OTHER AS YET NEW TO THIS EMAIL ANGLES OF THE STORY FOLLOWING THE REPEATED BACKGROUND INFORMATION. Independent Investigator and Journalist Mike Turber has seen official records confirming Stephen Paddock won $860,000 on September 30, 2017, just hours before he committed the Las Vegas shootings. However, that figure doesn’t include losses for the day, which are right around $890,000. Mike Turber, along with Ramsey Denison, who produced the documentary What Happened In Vegas, have interviewed me extensively on camera and in person. Mike Turber has stated that he observed my body language and other factors as a sort of lie detector test to determine if I was telling the truth without my knowledge which he states in that You Tube video. His conclusion is that either I am telling the truth or I believe I’m telling the truth. Mike Turber can be contacted here: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) I believe, based on behavior, both Stephen Paddock and I have similar mental illnesses and Asperger’s syndrome. I believe that’s why he instinctively talked to me and noticed I was using the same type of mathematical formulas he did and was familiar with. (It works too 98% of the time the problem is it doesn’t work 100% of the time and that’s what you need). So was he crazy? Of course he was crazy! So am I. But instead of guns, my obsessions are artistic – movies, music, media production, and the like. There’s nothing I can do about the Asperger’s or High Functioning Autism that’s part of this. Like him I’ve had it all my life. You cannot fake this. I would never have even remembered meeting Stephen Paddock, let alone what he said to me about wanting revenge against the casinos if I hadn’t come across this post written after an article about Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Campos appearing on the Ellen show. Everything here fits: robert.roberts0361 1 year(s) ago Quite a while back talked to that guy in an Edmonton casino about how the casinos cheat their patrons. Not a Muslim terrorist thing at all. Same guy Filipino girlfriend. Lived in a hotel in Vegas. Asked him why he came to an out of the way place like Edmonton. He said just to gamble. He mentioned he was a retired accountant.

ALL 19 day cruises to Alaska end with a two day stopover in Vancouver. That means Stephen Paddock and Marilou Danley had already disembarked, and did not have to go back to the cruise ship at all. AND HOW TO PROVE THE EDMONTON STORY IS TRUE: Any FBI investigator or private investigator could prove if what Stephen Paddock told that commenter is true by checking passenger manifests for 19 day Alaska cruises that began in early to mid-September 2016. Unless Stephen Paddock and Marilou Danley were on that cruise, this person couldn’t have possibly known about it unless he was directly told by Stephen Paddock, as he says. THE FOLLOWING IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT TO MOTIVE. THIS IS WHAT STEPHEN PADDOCK MEANT WITH REGARDS TO THE CASINOS CHEATING, NOT TRADITIONAL CHEATING. I don’t play Video Poker, so I had no idea what he meant by his talking about the casinos cheating that morning unless he had explained it to me, which he didn’t do. Here is another recent You Tube post I’ve written which details more about Stephen Paddock and Video Poker with links to yet more relevant information. There are several posts by myself near the bottom of the thread. Just like on my Instagram page, Rodney4K, you can see how the details of the memory of meeting Stephen Paddock was not at that time completely clear and changed as I remembered more and more of what happened. There are very rare video poker machines known as 9 over 6 Jacks or Better. If played perfectly they give the player 100.8% payout. But that's no guarantee. Someone figured out that in order to have a 90% chance of winning $140,000 you need at least a six million dollar bankroll. There is a whole thread about this and Paddock in one of Anthony Curtis columns on the Las Vegas Advisor website. Of course, beating the house long term is close to impossible. Even the Sheriffs department admits Paddock had lost a considerable amount of wealth prior to the shootings. There's also a report that he won $860,000 on the day of the shootings. But that figure doesn't include losses, which are reported to be some $890,000. Mike Turber knows the details of this. I have several comments in that article. Just like on my Instagram page, if you read them, you'll see how they change more and more as I start to remember meeting Stephen Paddock and what he said about getting revenge on the casinos. It was a very bizarre few days as that memory returned: https://www.lasvegasadvisor.com/gambling-with-an-edge/the-shooter-gambler-steven-paddock/ Because that blog is about gambling, many of the posts are about how much Stephen Paddock did gamble, his odds of winning and related subjects.

Anthony Curtis related in the latest issue of LVA that the last 2 books purchased were about Taxes and Gambling Law. Under the Trump tax plan guess how much will be allowed to be written off as losses?? ZERO!!!!! That deduction dies and so with it will any AP (Advantage Play) play on VP. The Shooter was an accountant, he had to have knowledge of that reality. Anyone who plays VP, at any level above a $1200 Royal, would have to be an idiot to be in action under those conditions. The winning sum of $5.000,000 has been used in previous posts, Can you imagine having won $5.000.000 and subsequently losing that back plus an additional $500,000? You would not only be stuck the $500,000 but also owe the IRS another $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 in taxes on your non deductible winnings. How come nobody in the casinos is screaming about this? It will kill destroy $1 and up Slot and VP play. According to Mike Turber, who says he has seen the records, Stephen Paddock won $860,000 on September 30, 2017, just before the shootings.
