COUNTING CARDS IN RENO by LVBear "LV Bear" is the pseudonym of a Las Vegas-based professional casino patron, advantage player, and outspoken casino critic who regularly visits casinos throughout Nevada and elsewhere. He is a frequent contributor to www.bj21.com and other informed gambling and casino-related websites. LV Bear can be reached through his website, www.TheBearGrowls.com, a unique weblog where he voices his sharp criticism of the casino industry and its many violations of business ethics, players’ rights, and its corrupting and negative impact on society in general. More about the Bear can be found at http://www.thebeargrowls.com/?page_id=2Editor's note: LV Bear is a regular visitor to Reno, having made ten to fifteen trips there every year for the last ten years. He is normally a high-stakes player, but recently agreed to spend a few days playing at below-normal stakes at various casinos throughout northern Nevada, to get a glimpse at what opportunities might exist for lower-stakes players. The observations and opinions expressed in this article are solely those of LV Bear, and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of BJ Insider, its sponsors or advertisers.

Comps are easy and generous. If you are accustomed to the hostility, rudeness, and mostly lousy games found throughout Las Vegas, Reno will be a pleasant surprise. Single deck blackjack that pays 3 to 2 is still found almost everywhere.
