"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
i just watched Casino for the first time
- Thread starter backbreaker
- Start date
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
are you talking about Casino w/ DeNiro and Pesci?
"where the **** do you get off talking to people about me behind my back going over my head? what people? you didn't think I was going to find out? You said im bringing heat on you? I gotta listen to people because of your ****ing ****? your ordering me out? you better bring your own army pal"
and this after Santoro banged rothstien's wife.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I remember talking about all those guys in my history of gaming class when I was in college. Those were the wild west days for the mobsters, before the understood the government had to get their piece. I can't imagine what life in the desert was like then.
Totally awesome film, not 100% accurate but 110% entertaining.

what wat?PRMoon said:
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Check out this one I bet a lot of you might not have heard of it even though it's considered a classic now a days and revolutionized film making.
Mean Streets (1973)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070379/
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/mean_streets/ (98% at rotten tomatoes)
Starring a young Robert Deniro/Harvey Keitel. It's about the lower rung of the mafia in the mean streets of New York's little Italy. This is the film that gave them their big break with their awesome performances. It's the film that's been credited for starting the whole street feel type genre movies.
It sort of introduced Martin Scorsese to the world.
Check out the youtube trailer

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

It depends on the property and the state/country regulations. In some casinos in Vegas it's higher than 40 percent payout because they're splitting the cost with another outside gaming company and the have alternate means of revenue aside from gaming. In alot of indian run casinos it could be as low as 25 percent because they aren't governed by any one other than their own authority. The same goes for cruise ships.

Yes and no. Gaming regulatory commissions typically administer rules for games run by the house to make sure they aren't just taking money from the public with zero chance of winning and to make sure what the house takes is appropriately documented and taxed. If the track has slot machines then yes they are subject to a similar rules as casinos in that respect. If the only form of gambling that is available on at the track is betting on races then the then the rules of hold and payout aren't applicable because they aren't house run games of chance. I'm sure the government has a race authority who has a set of rules and regulations for racing as well (the government is big on taxes if you didn't already know) but it wouldn't be the same as a gaming commission.Alle_Gory said:
