There's no problem so big, that a natural nine can't solve.

The Beach in AC
Originally uploaded by smartbaccarat.

Atlantic City has been great so far. Weather has been great, and we have had a really great time relaxing on the beach. Caesars is nicer than I expected, and our view from the 44th floor in the Centurion Tower is excellent.

Still waiting on the "potential" casino closing; due to happen on Wednesday morning at 8AM. A description of the closing process (from the Star Ledger) gave me a good laugh :
An hour before closing, the casinos' public address systems would begin broadcasting announcements that all gaming would stop in 60 minutes, then 50, and so on. Some games, notably craps, may close before 8 a.m.

"At a craps table, a player's turn continues until they roll 7," Casino Control Commission spokesman Dan Heneghan explained. So if a player rolled 7 at, say, 7:58 a.m., the pit boss would stop the game, to prevent the next player from running past the deadline.

According to Heneghan, a contingent of 70 State Police and 60 state gaming enforcement agents is available, if needed, to escort patrons off the floor. Then it is a matter of collecting and securing all the cash, chips and keys -- hundreds of them for each casino.

I'll report more when I have a chance later; including a gaming report. Very impressed by the VP at Caesars; 9/6 JoB at the 25 cent level is just something I never expected. Also was glad to see they have my favorite 5 Play $1 VP. Craps is also great, with LOTS of tables and really good crews working the tables.

Now... I'm off to Cape May....
