I knew that would get some replies. [/QUOTE]
   Billyjoe, i did not realize B. Dancer was banned from certain Casinos.....when You say his play is "too strong" do you mean he is Uber-profitable, or is it because he is so well known as an Authority (perhaps "THE" Authority in some people's minds) that the casinos will treat him just like they would a card counter?     I am guessing that even though the positive EV games are thouroughly randomized, they would fear someone who they believe will NEVER EVER make a mistake.     I am just being "punny" with his name......if I run into (or over his toes lol) I will buy him a drink or three if he will discuss VP for five minutes with me too![/QUOTE]
As I have heard Bob tell it, it is often because he plays at a high denom in a local casino that is not often exposed to large payouts. Ellis Island was a location that I recall him talking about., where he would be playing a $25 machine, and after a second RF payout, was asked to take his play elsewhere.

One more: Does anyone know if Frankie Moreno, who is performing at the Stratosphere, is related to Rita Moreno? Rita Moreno was great when she guest starred several times on the Rockford Files.

No relation.
 
However, in an interview with Good Day LA,Rita Moreno stated that Elvis Presley was not a good lover. They dated for quite some time, but whenever the opportunity presented itself to take the relationship to another level, Presley backed off.
 
Moreno had an eight years long affair with actor Marlon Brando.

I have offered to buy Bob dinner and talk VP many times when I am out in Vegas, but it would be at a Strip casino, where he never goes. He always stands me up..  

This story may help explain why Bob avoids the strip (mgm in particular)

  Thanks for the info QD, I might look into buying one of those coupon books. Can anyone tell me what website to go to? I typed in Las Vegas Advisor Guide, just like DaBurglar said, and nothing came up? I did see a website for Las Vegas Advisor but because this is different from what DaBurglar gave us I'm afraid to click on Las Vegas Advisor in case it might be one of those internet scams?

  Thanks doris, I didn't want to get scammed or spammed or whatever they call it when your computer gets a virus from clicking on the wrong thing.

 I wonder if this was before or after she was on the Childrens Television Workshop production of "THE ELECTRIC COMPANY"???    Morgan Freeman got his start on this show, as well as several other actors.... As for Elvis Presley being a lousy lover, try NONEXISTENT lover after Lisa Marie was born......once he started indulging in all the pharmaceuticals (Pain Meds, Sleeping pills) and started on his path to near obesity, his sex drive disappeared, as it would with any person who does such things.    He still had girlfriends and companions, but if you read the memoirs people wrote about their time with ELVIS, they all concur the guy rarely if ever had sex during the last 8-9 years of his life.   I reccomend the book 'Elvis and Me", as well as the books written by Elvis' former bodyguards, Sonny and Red West.    The spooky similarity with how both Elvis and Michael Jackson met their demise is a sobering look at how over-medicated this country/society is, and how celebrities fall victim to both their own weaknesses and the bad intentions of others.......both Elvis and Michaled were victims of parasite people around them who fed their addictions for their own personal gain, and they were both victims of their own celebrity sense of entitlement which caused them to believe it was actually 'OK" for them to abuse drugs (along with abusing themselves, others, and other things.)         Very sad we lost perhaps the two best entertainers EVER to the same bullshiiite.
