Fifteen Philadelphia Family Members and Associates Indicted

That's interesting; I always figured the video blackjack just reshuffled after every hand and every single card was randomly selected from a deck of 52 cards. So you can get those 4 Kc every hand but I've never really paid attention to it. I knew a guy who won 2 grand on blackjack on 5Dimes and they refused to honor it. I imagine somewhere like Bovada would be a little less shady.

There are video blackjack games that just pick cards randomly from one deck and they're advertised specifically as "single deck".

Bovada for example offers "single deck" in its lineup but it's still shuffled after every hand. You can safely assume that the ones that aren't labeled as "single deck" have six to eight decks.

No way in hell would an online casino offer single deck from a real physical deck without shuffling after every hand. Might as well tell card counters "please come rob us blind." Even the single-deck physical real cards game at El Cortes casino (Bugsy's place lol) here in Las Vegas shuffles after every two rounds (and it's boring as fuck, all you mostly do is watch the dealer shuffle).

I last played in person a couple years ago in upstate New York at an Indian casino. I can't remember the shuffle frequency but I know I lost 150 dollars in about 15 minutes so I wasn't around long enough to know anyway lol

@dante I was just at fanduel yesterday cashing in a few tickets from the super bowl. ironically i ripped in half mistakenly but they paid me anyways. i had my card # so it was there that i had bet it.

i said to myself, how far is the bada bing? lo and behold ten mins so i stopped and took a picture. ppl driving by prolly were like look at this asshole

Hahaha Cheech, I have barreled out of that parking lot drunk off my ass many a nights over the years!

I used to also hang out with the Owner’s daughter before he went bad and went into the witness protection program (Tony Lodi). Those were the days, I was 25 years old and living in Hoboken at the time. Yes, he had his own daughter working there as a barmaid that’s how we first met LOL . They actually got robbed at gunpoint by a masked man with a Shotgun shortly soon after Tony Lodi went bad and into the Witness Protection program. They never caught the robbers. Hmmmmm.......

I don’t know about nowadays as I have only been there once in the last three years, but back before Tony Lodi ratted the place was a hot bed of all kinds of gangsters hanging out in it- Russian Gangsters , High Ranking Black Gangsters, and of course LCN guys. Sometimes you would be there sitting there at the bar and see Russian Gangsters, a Bloods General, and LCN guys all sitting at the same bar as you scanned it with your eyes. It was crazy times, I think the Manager was even indicted once for running an LCN Bookmaking operation I think.

Did you go inside? Inside they haven’t changed a single thing and it’s literally like you stepped into an episode of The Sopranos at the Bada Bing!

The outside they remodeled I wanna say around the time Jimmy Gandolfini passed away so that sucks, it used to also be identical on the outside as the Bada Bing! on The Sopranos. The outdoor remodeling wasn't too drastic just the exterior when you walk up close to the building was changed, they added a brick exterior you will notice.

Funny story , when I was living up in Hoboken back around 07-08ish and the Nets were still playing in Jersey at The Meadowlands my boys and I would always meet up at Satin Dolls to pregame before we went to the NJ Nets game. This one Sunday afternoon we meet up there before a Nets game and we’re the only ones in there besides the girls dancing and barmaids.

Low and behold, The Sopranos Location Tour Bus pulls into the parking lot and in walks a gigantic bus load of mostly European tourists with cameras around their necks and Fanny packs around their waists. They start pointing at us and taking pictures of me and my boys gawking at us in their native European tongues like we’re on display or something as we shove wads of US Currency down Latina and Eastern European dancers panties while they shake their cervixes inches from our faces.

You can now say that I know exactly how zoo animals who are on display for tourist’s entertainment feel LOL.

Nah it was 11 in the morning. I got up early and drove out to just cash the tickets. no traffic now as no one is headed into the city anymore.

bro thats hysterical

[NJShore4Life]

@Cheech , 11am is a perfect time for a Strip Club , the cervixes are fresh LOL. I love day drinking in strip clubs. Yeah there’s zero traffic to the city these days, there’s nobody even in the city it’s eerily quiet and most of the businesses are closed/boarded up. It’s actually depressing everytime I head into the city.

Hahaha, Satin Dolls serves booze so it’s just Go-Go and they actually have pretty good food there, I love eating at Strip Clubs. Nothing better than chomping down on some Crab Legs in between motor boats!

Strip club food is highly underrated. One of the best breakfast buffets of my life was at Uptown Cabaret in Charlotte. And I went to college in Georgia, the strip clubs down there? Forget about it....
Any strip club worth it’s salt in the South will have a 300 pound plus country bumpkin smoking ribs and pork butt for 8 hours out back. Magic City in Atlanta does almost as much $$$ off wings as it does T&A.
As a younger guy I was like “food at strip clubs, really?” But then I got schooled and was like “ooooh. Duh.”

People I know of personally did fantastic. Best year ever even without march madness.
Hard to say how all did. Depends on your clientele. I have to imagine they did well.

Damn that’s crazy I figured it would be all fucked up.. .. especially like you said March madness is insane..
I could see though a lot of bettors going straight degenerate and betting more than they usually do since they were all cooped up In the house living like groundhogs day with the lockdowns... so betting could for sure have given some peiple some shit to look forward to during the pandemic.. so I could see it going well...

For those who unlike me are actually capable of doing math and really know something about gambling operations, what would be a more realistic take for the net profits over time for this one gambling operation? Just a ballpark range, I know it's impossible to know for sure.

wiseuguy is correct below and I appreciate he shared my post.

this gives you a good idea re: hold percentage, total take etc.

its going to vary per sport. / region

unfortunately the report didnt give us enough insight into there operation. the $2,000 a day is a formality and it only needs to happen once for the charge. it doesn't mean it happened every day. no bookie wins every week let alone every day. the $2,000 X 365 days isn't relevant.

Did boomakers have a horrible year due to The pandemic?? Or did they still get to squeeze out some money and the year wasn’t a complete bust?? I’m sure some Shylock books did pretty well

There is a actual name being given to this whole new group of ppl who came up outta nowhere due to the pandemic....

There called PANDEMIC BALLERS

and it became the "new lane" where if you were involved in any type of crime pre corona.... You made lots money during Corona...

2020 will always be remembered basically for free money for criminals

Imagine there being a Black Hand lunch buffet meetup over at Satin Dolls. Followed by dinner over at Il Colosseo.
