Re: getting robbed at Los angeles Casinos
Hmmm, there's been a few too many "LA is violent" posts in this thread. LA casinos aren't in the greatest areas, but I find Commerce and the Bike to be reasonably safe as long as you don't park off...

Re: L@TB, a good learning tool for B&M play?
L@TB, as you probably know, is no longer airing new episodes and is archive-only at this point. I'm one of what may be one of the last few subscribers left.
