At the very least you should go to the above and rent/fire a machine gun upon ocassion!! Better than tilting after a bad beat. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I recommend the Tommy Gun. Not the newest kid on the block, but something about all those .45's coming out with that famous The Untouchables *clack*clack*clack* is kinda cool.

I can shoot my buddys' machineguns for free. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I may want to give their SAW a try though.

Machine guns are fun to shoot but man, it can be expensive =p 4-5 50 cents bullets a second can really add up =)

One guy (who wrote on the forum) said he was playing stud and his gun was showing by accident. The casino floor person came over to him and told him to conceal it better for the guests.

I was pulled out of my rotation game last year at the Rio because the security thought I had a gun strapped to my back. It was a blackberry - the pen is mightier than the sword. I was surprised they even took the time to notice!

I may be in the minority and I'm certainly no gun-control advocate, but I'd prefer to take my chances with muggers on the strip than a room-ful of armed poker players, any of whom may tilt at any time.

Regarding muggers vs. poker players in a legal, public cardroom, I believe the opposite.

I believe Washington D.C. is still the worst.

Nah, we are gentrifying at an alarming pace here. I think Baltimore is worse than DC now.
