So far, this has been an amazing summer of winning at Southern California casinos. Check out all the thrilled winners of car and cash giveaways, slot tournaments, and jackpots from the past few months that contributor Gail Anders highlights on page 18, and there’s more on page 34. And summer’s not over yet.
On a very sad note, we announce the passing in early July, of contributor and friend, Bill Burton, writer of the About Gambling column for us for the past 11 years. Bill was one of the most knowledgeable casino writers, whose signature catchphrase,“Luck comes and goes...Knowledge Stays Forever” sums up his approach to gambling. He was a gentleman, and we will miss him. May his spirit soar.
As always, remember to keep your play fun at the casinos.
