If I would give one piece of advice to a first time player, it is to tune out everything. You will see prices come in and hear lots of cheering every race. Just block it out and play your own game. Set a goal and stick to it. And, most of all, have fun.

I tried this on Sat a bit last year but was overwhelmed by the lines for the tellers. How do you manage that?

They had three or four self service machines. I never had any issues in the three years I played there.

Flight just cancelled for tomorrow.. In scramble mode, I'd suggest anyone from east coast check their flights asap.

Good luck. Sounds like you're taking United. I gave up on them last year and try to only fly Southwest.

Safe flights, guys. Will be rooting for all of you.

I was cancelled off that flight 8:09 today and am on 9:10 tomorrow. When I went to bcbc I was also cancelled and had them put me on another flight any airline which was a JFK. They paid for cab fare it is about a 20 minute ride. JFK had no cancellations to Vegas today. i will ask for the same tomorrow if my flight is cancelled. Something for you to think about if you can get to Newark.
