    That never crossed my mind as I don't think about that stuff and it's probably because I don't have to worry about money.

    I practically lived in the casino hotels for the past 1.5 years since the casinos reopened in Atlantic City after they were closed for a few months because of the pandemic. I probably go home maybe once a month to check on the house.

    I don't know anyone who stays in the casinos for 1.5 years and don't end up losing a house. Thankfully I haven't yet. I'm a grinder, so I don't lose big or win big, but I manage to grind out some type of winning week after week.

    This past whole week was a nightmare as everyday that I played, I would never go up but start going down first. I had to grind for hours to break even and then make a little and quit. Just today, I played 8 hours of pai gow tiles even after the dealer I knew for 30 years warned me that he's running hot and I was down probably $500 at the lowest point, but I managed to recover them all and made a few bucks so I quit. I pretty much always bet for the dealers, so they always make more than I do.

    The other players I played with lost 1K and 3K each since they were betting $100+ every round.

    For the week, I managed to win about $1,200, but the total I was down was well over several thousands.

    I'm getting free hotel rooms, comped food, free giveaways, so as long as I don't lose, it's something to do.

    How would you rate the food? Do they have peanuts?

    I would rate Borgata and Hard Rock buffet foods at 8 to 9 out of 10.

    I haven't seen peanuts at any of the player lounges, but some do have premium nuts those that aren't peanuts though.

    Borgata's dinner buffet is $41.72 after tax. I can get in for $12.50 comp dollars and at the moment I have over $600 so I can eat 48 times but my comp dollar keeps on going up and I can't eat fast enough to use them up because I have similar comp dollars at 2 other casinos; Hard Rock and Bally's. They also have Amphora lounge for Gold card players and it's also $12.50 comp dollars per entry and they have all you can drink and they got every drink you can think of. That lounge's food is better than any other casinos' player lounges and it's a buffet style too. A couple of times, they had all you can eat lobster tails and they were great.

    Hard Rock's buffet is $32.08 after tax but I can get in for $10 comp dollars. Their buffet is not as good as Borgata's but still very good. They got things like prime rib, salmon, fried chicken, baked chicken, ribs, decent size shrimps, fresh oysters, various Chinese food, pizza, etc. Borgata has more choices and their prime rib is better for sure.

    Obviously, every casino has high priced restaurants, but I don't go to any of them since it costs me only $10 or $12.50 for all you can eat buffets. My sister paid well over $100 in one of the restaurants at Hard Rock, and she complained that she didn't have enough food to eat.

    Seems like every other thread on the SB in PT someone is mentioning how all of SBR is on the Rams, yet we now have 70+ votes and I can't recall a time when the Bengals weren't in front.

    Typically that means the team that covers the 1st half does not cover the 2nd half. Did you know that?

    It just means people leaning Bengals are talking out of their ass to convince themselves they're on the right side.

    "EVerYonE on SbR iS On THe RaMs.." but the poll doesn't reflect that and never has.
