			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most  crap  shooters toss the  dice  by the course of the day. This  means  that they  understand  how to  lift  out the  dice  in a  process  to  make sure  that they do not  create  the  results   too   predicted . A  monster   roll  is a  roll  thrown by a  online  <a href="http://www.casino-craps-online.com/" target="_blank">craps</a> shooter lasts for more than  twenty   minutes .

<p> Seven  to Rolls Ration is  employed  to  describe  the length of an  average   roll . The  average  SRR for most of the  new  <a href="http://ca.royalvegas.com/craps/" target="_blank">online&nbsp; craps</a> shooters is 1 :6. This  means  that in  six  rolls, 1 of their rolls would be a  seven . Whilst rolling  2   dice , there are 36  distinctive  outcomes. Out of  all  these outcomes, there are  only   six   structures  in a shooter  can   roll  a  seven . This  means  that if you keep rolling a  dice   randomly , you will  absolutely  be  proficient  to have an SRR or 1 :6.</p>
<p>To  rise   you are   normal   above  1 :6, you have to have  dice   control . With an  normal  of 1 :6, it is  impossible  to  strike  the  gambling   gambling casino   worth  in the  extended  run. This has been explained in  text book  in &ldquo;Get the Edge at Craps&rdquo; by Sharpshoot&rsquo;s book. To  guarantee  that you have the  top  hand over the shooter, you have to  ensure  that you  grow  your  worth . There are  2   main   stairs   assigned  in this : Try to  expand  your  advantage  at the  table  by  improved   plan  involving how  much &nbsp; you  bet   &amp;  at what  time-frame . The more  trained  you are with your  money   management , the  better  your  increase  will be.</p>
<p>A  higher  SRR  means  that you can have a more  assertive   proceed  to your  betting . You craps  approach   could   likewise &nbsp; be  modified  this  system . Even if you  allege  your SRR from 1 :6 to 1 :7, you will still have a  definite   value  over the  residence . You could even be  remade   in to  a  unchanging  craps  leader  if you  mix  your  advantage  with  smart   betting  as well as  cash   management .</p>
<p>The  central  thing that you have to  be aware of  is that it is  ample   bettered  in the  extended  run to  advance  your  average  rolls than to put as well a lot of  appetite  &amp;  currency  in  making  an  endeavor  to  create  any  and   each  1 of your rolls a Long or Monster  roll . The  whole  point of the  game  is to  rake  in  expand  in the  prolonged  run &amp; this is some-thing that you  may  do with the  suitably  strategies. Your  proceed  should  consider   every  qualities of winning- SRR, sound  gambling  techniques &amp;  cash   management .</p>
<p>It  might   appear  to be pretty  impossible  at the  commencement ,  but  this is  something  that you can do with  enough   rehearse  as well as a  little  bit of  formulation . Hundreds have  completed  success  applying  the procedures  endangered  in the Professional&rsquo;s Insight Series <a href="http://au.platinumplay.com/casino-games/craps/" target="_blank">online craps</a>  archive . This  knowledge  can  positively   develop  your  odds  at  winning .

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Will the Hard Rock Casino build in Atlantic City, NJ?</strong></p>
<p>The <strong>New Jersey</strong> State Senate on Thursday approved a bill to allow two new casinos to be licensed in <strong>Atlantic City</strong> with fewer hotel rooms than current law requires. The bill would allow two casinos with just 200 rooms, fewer than the currently required 500 rooms, and with less casino floor space than today&#8217;s gaming halls. Both new casinos would have to be built close to the Boardwalk, and at least one would be expected to expand into a full-sized 500-room casino with increased floor-space within five years.</p>
<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve seen larger projects die on the vine in <strong>Atlantic City</strong> because investment capital dried up, and no one is willing to take a chance during a difficult economic period,&#8221; Whelan said following the vote. &#8220;Not only does this bill lower the investment threshold to get new casinos in to redevelop blighted areas in <em>Atlantic City</em>, but it creates a safety net so that development capital is available in good times and bad, and a guarantee that construction actually takes place.&#8221;</p>
<p>Lawmakers had considered the proposal &#8211; which has earned the nickname &#8220;boutique casinos&#8221; &#8211; in the spring, when Republicans were lukewarm about the concept. <em>Casino</em> executives represented by the Casino Association of New Jersey told Whelan during a Senate wagering committee hearing that they did not support the idea. Joe Corbo, then-head of the association, cited concerns about overcrowding of the market and potential new casinos failing to meet a high standard for the resort.</p>
<h3>Hard Rock Casino Atlantic City &#8211; Let the Games Begin!</h3>
<p>&#8220;We need to get people back to work in Atlantic County, and bring in capital investment,&#8221; Assemblyman Vincent Polistina said Thursday night.</p>
<p>While Whelan has said the bill lowers the entry fee for doing business in the resort, new licensees will have to pay significant money to the state upfront and throughout the life of their projects. The two licensed properties would have to pay $2 million upon commitment to a license. The money would be shared between the city government and the state to complete infrastructure improvements around the casino sites.</p>
<p>As an incentive to expand, the two developers would also pay 5 percent of their gross revenue into a fund that could then be used for expansion and structural improvements. But if they decide not to expand in five years, they would pay an additional 5 percent of gross revenue to the same fund, and that money could be used by other casino businesses or by <strong>Atlantic City</strong> government on capital improvements within the <strong>Boardwalk </strong>district.</p>
<p>That provision, which was added in the last two weeks, leaves open the possibility that the fund could assist in operation of a proposed new state-run tourism district surrounding Atlantic City&#8217;s Boardwalk, Inlet and Marina areas. Gov. Chris Christie proposed the district in July. This was the first piece of Atlantic City-related legislation to pass a full vote since the governor&#8217;s announcement.</p>
<p>The bill is also a catalyst for a proposed <strong>Hard Rock casino</strong> hotel which parent company Hard Rock International would build in partnership with New York-based investment group Och-Ziff Real Estate. Hard Rock Chief Executive Officer Jim Allen said work on the estimated $400 million to $450 million project would begin almost immediately after the boutique casino bill receives final approval by the Assembly and Christie.</p>
<p>&#8220;Certainly, if this bill passes, we&#8217;ll continue to travel down this path,&#8221; Allen said in an interview with The Press of Atlantic City. &#8220;We are still very enthused about a <strong>Hard Rock in Atlantic City</strong>.&#8221; Design work on the Hard Rock casino would take about six to eight months, with construction stretching out over another 18 to 22 months, Allen said. Although Hard Rock is far from finalizing its designs, preliminary plans call for 200 to 300 hotel rooms to start, eventually building up to 500, he said. &#8220;We&#8217;re committed to going ahead and meeting the 500-room minimum,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p><strong>Hard Rock Atlantic City</strong> remains one of the few developers serious about building a new casino in a gaming market mired in a four-year revenue slump and hounded by competitors in surrounding states. <strong>Atlantic City</strong> has been further plagued by the sluggish economy, but Allen said there are signs of a recovery on the horizon. He also believes <strong>Atlantic City</strong> has absorbed the worst from the rival Pennsylvania casinos.</p>
<p>Hard Rock is encouraged, Allen said, by Southwest Airlines&#8217; pending takeover of AirTran, a carrier that serves Atlantic City International Airport from Atlanta. The merger potentially means expanded AirTran service to Atlantic City or Southwest could bring in its own brand of flights to the city, Allen said.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <strong>Atlantic City Conventions and Visitors Authority</strong> came up with an unusual substitute for a guidebook to <strong>Atlantic City, New Jersey</strong>. They found their way around town using a <strong>Monopoly</strong> board.   The guidebook publisher&#8217;s U.S. travel editor Robert Reid made an amusing video of his effort to use Monopoly as his guide, walking around town carrying a game board and the property cards bearing familiar street names.</p>
<p>Standing on St. James Place with the corresponding card, he said, &#8220;A lot of people don&#8217;t realize that the places — Oriental Avenue, Ventnor Avenue, St. Charles Place, Park Place and this, St. James Place, are real and they can be visited here in <strong>Atlantic City</strong>.&#8221;  He then walked into a small hotel, the Inn of the Irish Pub, and told the man at the desk that according to his Monopoly card, he could buy the hotel for $100 plus four houses.</p>
<p>&#8220;We would never sell this hotel,&#8221; responded local <strong>Atlantic City</strong> Resident Frank Pileggi, but he later accepted $30 in Monopoly money to pay for Reid&#8217;s night at the inn.  In addition to visiting various streets, Reid&#8217;s tour included a stop at the city water tower with the &#8220;Water Works&#8221; utility card in hand, and a shot of an <em>Atlantic City</em> police car to correspond to the &#8220;Go to Jail&#8221; card.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <strong>State of New Jersey</strong> is getting ever more involved with the day-to-day operation of the nation&#8217;s second-largest gambling market.  <strong>Atlantic City</strong> agreed Tuesday to let state officials take control of the city&#8217;s troubled finances to help it get back on its feet and avoid crushing tax increases that otherwise would have had to be passed on to residents and businesses.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s Gov. Chris Christie&#8217;s second major move to assume greater control in <em>Atlantic City</em>, whose 11 casinos have been reeling from a nearly four-year revenue plunge set off by competition in neighboring states and the continuing poor economy. Earlier this year, Christie announced plans to set up a special casino and tourism district in <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Atlantic City</span> overseen by the state.  &#8220;<strong>Atlantic City</strong> is at a crossroads where its revitalization and future as a resort destination are now taking shape,&#8221; the Republican governor said of the overwhelmingly Democratic city. &#8220;This is not the time, nor is it the right message to be sending, for Atlantic City to be imposing burdensome tax increases on its citizens and business community.</p>
<p>&#8220;We want to help <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Atlantic City</span> through this difficult period, but we also want the city to improve and maximize its management and fiscal policies so it is best positioned for revitalization and long-term prosperity,&#8221; Christie said.  <strong>Atlantic City</strong> elected officials sought to portray the move as help from the state rather than an outright takeover, even though the state retains ultimate control over the city&#8217;s finances.</p>
<p>&#8220;We welcome this partnership with state government in what we are trying to accomplish for our city,&#8221; Mayor Lorenzo Langford said. &#8220;The governor can help us to convey to the rest of <em>New Jersey</em> all the progress we are making to improve the management of our city to pave the way for a brighter future.&#8221;  The arrangement will allow the city to gradually close its $9.5 million budget deficit over five years, sparing residents and businesses a significantly larger property tax increase this year. The state&#8217;s Local Finance Board voted Tuesday to approve bonding to pay for <strong>Atlantic City&#8217;s</strong> tax appeals.  Under the agreement, city officials reduced a previous request to exceed the state property tax cap by nearly $10 million to just over $2 million instead.</p>
<p>Had the higher waiver been approved, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Atlantic City</span> taxpayers would have been hit with an average increase of $253. The lower waiver means that increase will now be $157.  Other benefits of state supervision include allowing the city to defer some expenses. The state of <em>New Jersey</em> may also provide staff and resources to help the city with its finances.  The municipal budget up for a vote Wednesday night is about $216 million.  <strong>Atlantic City</strong> government needs help, the mayor has no clue.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Atlantic City, New Jersey</strong> casino regulators on Thursday approved the $73 million sale of land underneath the <strong>Borgata Hotel Casino &amp; Spa</strong> as part of MGM Resorts International&#8217;s exit from the nation&#8217;s second-largest gambling market.</p>
<p>The state of <em>New Jersey </em>Casino Control Commission approved the sale of 11.3 acres to Vornado Realty Trust and Geyser Holdings, through their newly formed company <strong>Atlantic City, New Jersey</strong> GL LLC. It&#8217;s part of the casino company&#8217;s forced exit from <em>Atlantic City </em>over its ties to the daughter of a reputed Chinese mob boss.</p>
<p>MGM Resorts is selling its half-interest in the <em>Borgata</em> itself following an ultimatum from New Jersey casino regulators that it sell its 50 percent stake in <strong>Atlantic City&#8217;s top casino</strong>, or cut ties with Pansy Ho, its partner in a casino in the Chinese enclave of Macau. Ho&#8217;s father, Stanley, has long been accused of ties to organized crime, which he denies. MGM Resorts chose to keep its relationship with Ho and walk away from the Borgata. Linda Kassekert, chairwoman of the casino commission, said the sale needed to be approved to enable MGM Resorts to leave <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Atlantic City</span> under the agreement it reached with the commission in March.</p>
<p>The company revealed this week that it had received an offer of $250 million for its interest in the hotel. MGM Resorts would not identify the potential buyer. Boyd Gaming, MGM Resorts&#8217; partner in the Borgata, has the right of first refusal on any sale of MGM Resorts&#8217; half of the casino. &#8220;MGM has formally presented us with the offer; we have just begun the process of considering it,&#8221; Boyd spokesman David Strow said Thursday.</p>
<p>Boyd has 30 days to decide whether to exercise its right to buy MGM Resorts&#8217; half of the <strong>Borgata Atlantic City Casino</strong>.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Atlantic City hotels</strong> and casinos are sending out notices to its workers warning them they could be laid off soon as the struggling casino prepares to change ownership.  John Pasqualoni, Resorts casino&#8217;s chief operating officer, told employees in a memo Thursday that they will receive notices in the mail Friday as required under the Worker Adjustment and Notification Act, otherwise known as WARN.  The notices were first reported by The Press of <em>Atlantic City</em>.</p>
<p><em>Resorts Casino</em> — the first in the nation to open outside Nevada — is being bought by veteran casino executive Dennis Gomes and developer Morris Bailey for $35 million. That&#8217;s the lowest price ever paid for a casino in New Jersey&#8217;s 32-year history of legalized gambling.</p>
<p>A casino spokesman would not comment on the notices or say how many of the casino&#8217;s 2,124 workers could lose their jobs.  The notice warned layoffs would occur Dec. 1 — the  same day Gomes and Bailey are expected to receive approval from the state <strong>Atlantic City Casino</strong> Control Commission to take over Resorts.  &#8220;We are doing everything in our power to ensure the sustainability of the property and facilitate the smooth transition of the purchase of <em>Resorts Atlantic City</em>,&#8221; Pasqualoni wrote in the memo to employees. &#8220;However, there are some considerations that are outside of our control and for that reason, not only is this notice a legal requirement, but I believe it is the right thing to do.&#8221;  Neither Gomes nor Peter Hoelzle, president of the RAC <em>Atlantic City</em> Holdings, immediately returned calls seeking comment Friday.</p>
<h3>Atlantic City Hotels Layoff Casino Workers &#8211; News!</h3>
<p>After Resorts Casino defaulted on its mortgage and turned itself over to its lenders in December 2009, the two sides hammered out a deal that let the lenders own the casino in return for canceling nearly $381 million in debt. The lenders formed RAC <strong>Atlantic City Hotels &amp; Casino</strong> Holldings, which was given a one-year casino license.  RAC said then that it wanted to find a buyer as quickly as possible.   &#8220;We have no intention of operating the casino or the hotel well into the future,&#8221; Hoelzle told the state casino commission last fall.</p>
<p>Gomes and Bailey struck the deal to buy <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Resorts Casino Atlantic Ci</span>ty from RAC in August.  Resorts opened in 1978 but in recent years has been dwarfed by newer, bigger casinos around it. It also was hurt when slots parlors opened in recent years in neighboring Pennsylvania began siphoning off its most loyal customers, mainly day-tripping senior citizens who would ride the bus to play slots for a few hours.  By fall of 2008, the nationwide recession had pushed Resorts to the brink, and the casino made no payments on its $360 million mortgage after October 2008.  Its lenders, including Wells Fargo on behalf of Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Securities Corp., could have foreclosed on it but chose to work out the deal in which the casino ceded ownership to them.</p>
<p>Hopefully, by trimming the fat, <strong>Atlantic City hotels and casinos</strong> will be able to cut costs and stay afloat into the future.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Potential to Allow Four New &#8220;Smaller&#8221; Casinos in Atlantic City, New Jersey!</strong></p>
<p>Four new, &#8220;smaller&#8221; casinos could be built in Atlantic City under a law that was introduced Monday. This could mark the biggest expansion of legalized gambling since it began in Atlantic City, NJ, 32 years ago.</p>
<p>The new law could set off the biggest brawl since Mike Tyson crushed Tyrell Biggs at Boardwalk Hall, most of the existing casinos in town strongly oppose letting new casinos into the market at discount prices, tax breaks etc.</p>
<p>Former AC Mayor James Whelan is now a NJ state senator and will introduce legislation to permit four new casinos of at least 200 rooms. The current casino required minimum is 500, and the newest casinos have 1,000 or more.</p>
<p>&#8220;The world has changed, and Atlantic City has changed,&#8221; Jim Whelan said. &#8220;In 1978, Atlantic City desperately needed hotel rooms and nightclubs and the amenities that go along with a first-class hotel. Five hundred rooms made all the sense in the world.</p>
<p>One likely participant would be the Chelsea Hotel, a 330-room &#8220;boutique hotel&#8221; opened two years ago on the Boardwalk just as the national economy tanked. The hotel is owned by Curtis Bashaw, former head of New Jersey&#8217;s Casino Reinvestment Development Authority, who was forced to scrap his plan for his own sprawling casino nearby due to the recession.</p>
<p>&#8220;We think the Chelsea would be an excellent candidate for a small, upscale Monte Carlo-type venue that would elevate the market and attract a more upscale patron,&#8221; Bashaw said. &#8220;This is about jobs, innovating new gaming products and allowing the capital markets to enter the market at the level they&#8217;re comfortable with now.&#8221;</p>
<p>George Lynn, former CEO of the AtlantiCare hospital system, said bringing new, smaller casinos to Atlantic City will help the entire business community, including those not involved with gambling.</p>
<p>&#8220;The more people that come to Atlantic City, the more that small businesses prosper; we&#8217;ve seen that again and again,&#8221; he said. &#8220;These boutique casinos will help Atlantic City differentiate ourselves from our competition, which is something we absolutely have to do.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><strong>Atlantic City, New Jersey&#8217;s Flounder fisherman get extended season to fish for Fluke.</strong></h2>
<p><strong>New Season:</strong> May 29, 2010 through September 6, 2010 or 101 days of fishing!<br />
<strong>Bag Limit:</strong> 6 Fish per day<br />
<strong>Size Limit:</strong> 18 inches long</p>
<p>The NJ flounder season inludes both Memorial Day and Labor Day this year as decided by the New Jersey Marine Fisheries Council. Last year, fisherman were not happy when the season ended on Sept. 4,which was before Labor Day.</p>
<p>Fishermen pushed the Fisheries council to pick a season that included both holidays. The NJMFC chose from 10 options to stay within the state&#8217;s quota for Summer flounder/ fluke. Dozens of local fishermen commented on the different options, and the NJMFC chose the most popular one, May 29 through September 6. The season includes 101 days of fishing. Fishermen will be allowed six fish per day, with 18 inches being the minimum fish size.</p>
<p>Brook Koeneke, operator of the Duke o&#8217; Fluke party boat out of Somers Point,NJ pushed hard for both holidays.&#8221;Any option that doesn&#8217;t include Memorial Day weekend is unacceptable. We need that early holiday,&#8221; Koeneke said.</p>
<p>New Jersey fisherman exceeded catches in 2009, over by 24 percent, but were only required to have a 1 percent reduction this year in 2010. While reviewing the reports submitted by NJMFC, most anglers had a difficult time believing the figures that showed excessive landings in 2009. Last year anglers felt that the majority of fish caught were less than 18 inches and had to be thrown back, so the numbers seamed high. Plus, one captain replied &#8220;it rained the whole month of June, and the rest of the summer we threw everything back. Please come up with something to help us out. If not, we&#8217;ll be out of business and our children won&#8217;t be able to fish for anything.&#8221;</p>
<p>Overall, this is great news for Atlantic City and New Jersey Anglers, plenty of fishing for that giant fluke, can&#8217;t wait to fry up a few in pan with a cold beverage.</p>
