It's stupid to waste time spell checking on a forum filled with morons. You get what you get with auto spell. The idea comes across loud & clear either way, esp. when you mock the fools.
I tingle when a point is made, then the people who get overly agitated by it (aka, my GOAL :)) can't argue it in any way but instead, nervously claim my wife is ugly, my 1996 bankruptcy makes me poor today (yeah, ha!) and how I'm losing hair!!
I again win every which way.....Dem apples tasting good right about now?

What an idiot. "Ozzy" came on as a puny shaken anonymous poster who made every sentence look like one of you dildos coached him on it.
Not your best day eddie.
It's a tabloid for tourists. Nothing wrong with that, really, unless some poor blokes take the content hugely seriously. I like the Monti Rock column. I did find a couple of the sports inclusions interesting. They did a running tally of baseball team totals and ATS records. It was good to just take that in at a glance. They also have an annual ATS contest pitting the managers of all of the Las Vegas books against each other. That's pretty good filler.Quote:

Again, other than a weekly heads-up of promos at various casinos, it's of no real value to anyone who knows what they're doing, but why would it be? It doesn't exist so tourists can lose less money.
Not a claim...she really is :eek:Quote:

Today, the paper has not only shrunk in length & width--it's got less than half the # of pages. It's truly pathetic, but then again, I couldn't write my column forever, and Eileen D. didn't really think like her genius husband anyway. As a result, the GT of today is a joke. There were sponsors who bought ad space back then that would never even give it a thought without my Undeniable Truth column. And the reason it's a skeleton paper today is because the sponsors said bye-bye. Chuck knew how to run a successful paper. His wife does not.
Chuck knew that controversial bullshit sells. He played Rob like a fiddle. Attaboy! Rob! You tell 'em! The whole time he knew Rob was just another dumb ass. He laughed at Rob--and his readers--all the way to the bank. In his wildest imagination Chuck never believed any of Rob's bullshit about video poker.
The thing about it is....if you read one Singer article then you have read them all. There was nothing new in any of his articles, just the same old rehashed bullshit in every article.
deleted. duplicate post
Gaming Today did have one good section. The Gaming Business News. I kept up with it for casino openings and installations of games and gaming systems. For instance, I picked up a Gaming Today in the Vegas Club one morning. A little headline said Detroit Motor City Casino installs Lucky Coin Bonus System. I was in Detroit before sunset that day.

So Gaming Today downsizing had more to do with the lack of Rob's column than with the internet stressing a weekly tabloid as a news source. Interesting theory. It also had nothing to do with the Las Vegas economic crash of 10 years ago. It had to do with Rob's column.
Now here's something I don't quite understand. I don't see any difference between Gaming Today content today and 20 years ago. Rob, explain the vast differences in the paper under "genius" Chuck and "non-genius" Eileen. The only difference between the two is really the lack of your column, which leads us to the inevitable conclusion that not maintaining Rob's column clearly profiled Eileen as a "non-genius."
I will be sure to pass this forum posting onto Gaming Today, so they can appreciate their current folly. Maybe they will reward me with a free subscription.
Rob, one other question. That comment, "There were sponsors who bought ad space back then that would never even give it a thought without my Undeniable Truth column."
Would you care to name one still living? You know, one of them thar sponsors who would not advertise in GT without your column?
I find that quite a claim. Sounds almost narcissistic bordering on nuts. So could you name one? You said "sponsors" plural, so you must have some folks in mind. I know you wouldn't make that up off the top of your head.
Could we have a name? So, you know, we research types could verify the undeniable truth about it?
Thanks in advance.
Your friend,
Bob
P.S. If Rob doesn't provide a name, you know that I'll be dropping into the GT office to hand them this post and see if they know any sponsors who might have ceased advertising because of a "lack of Rob."
Just passing through again, only to find the same exact drool being smeared page after page.
I know most of you guys are adults and seniors, yet, do you even have a fn clue of how fn foolish and pathetic each and every one of you sound?
No wonder gamblers and gambling get a bad reputation. Just listen to you fn morons carry on.
Really guys, maybe it’s time to think a little outside of the box. Get a grip.

Too many words again, which means you're failing yourself. I told you your writing style is poor. You should heed the word. Lucky for you this place is loaded up with doofuses.Quote:

You either dodged the fact about the paper's significant size reduction--or you are making your statements up just like you try to get away with on your so-called resume'.
It would be nice if you went to see Eileen when you can afford to get to LV again. It'll make her think back to GT's glory days, and force her to again recognize her husband's greatness. But alas....I also can't help but think of the fiasco of words you'll once again subject us to as you try so hard to make some point.
Rob Singer I am not going to respond to you, now or ever again.
Frankly everyone should ignore you. You make zero positive contributions here. You waste our time.
Anything you post here has two purposes: one is self-glorification. The other is to put down others.
However, if you'd like to phone me or meet up sometime, I'd be happy to, because then the real you will come out from behind the curtain.
Rob, how is the content of Gaming Today different today than 20 years ago, your column aside? Not number of articles, but content?Quote:

Do you seriously think the size reduction in Gaming Today is due more to the lack of your column than to print downsizing in general or the 2008 Las Vegas recession?
"When I can afford to get to LV again?" What the heck does that mean? You know I usually give you a heads up so we can meet-and-greet.

My initial supposition is that content today is not terribly different from 20 years ago. Having more articles, but on overlapping and similar topics, in the issues 20 years ago could be matched pretty closely content-wise by fewer but more concise articles today. For example, speaking on topics I actually can evaluate, the sports articles 20 years ago may have been more in number, but they covered the same sports with the same kinds of analyses, just by more people with more opinions. Similarly, the poker articles (more popular 12-15 years ago) could rotate the same kinds of topics and analyses among more authors, whereas the same content is basically covered by fewer authors today.
Another way to look at it is that having more articles 20 years ago meant that the content of, say, two issues would pretty much match the content of three issues today. Former issues from 20 years ago may have more going on in any given issue, but the overall Gaming Today content on an annual basis would be quite similar.
Also, since GT is a tourist tabloid for non-experts, it tends to run repetitive columns throughout the year on the same topics with similar, almost identical, information. Twenty years ago, it might have had three or four slot and vp articles for tourists in an issue; now it has two. The content of those articles will be repeated closely by other articles a month or six weeks out. The same stuff will be revisited. So really, the overall content isn't much changed by running the same or similar content less repetitively, which is what happens with a slimmed-down version.
As some readers have mentioned, Rob's columns fit the repetitive profile. They were anecdotal opinion columns with a great deal of overlap from column to column. If you took one of his columns from May of one year and compared it to a column from September of the next year, often you'd see an enormous amount of repeat information. That's to be expected; it's a tabloid for tourists.
So yes, reducing an issue by 50% or more wouldn't necessarily change content of topics covered and how they are covered. You'd just get fewer opinions on the same stuff, and instead of recycling info every six weeks, the same things would be repeated on a longer cycle today.
Print publications cut pages for only one reason: there aren't enough ads to pay for additional pages.
If there were more ads, there would be more pages. That's how the print business works.
It has nothing to do with content.
If the paper is smaller now (and frankly I haven't seen a copy in several years) it's because the ad count is down.

That is NOT inconceivable. He might have had a close relationship with one or more advertisers and when his column was dropped they might have stopped advertising.Quote:

There is also the possibility that the advertisers liked what Rob was writing, and that's why they advertised on his page.
There are many radio personalities and even TV personalities who have "loyal advertisers" who follow them from station to station.
I find it very unlikely that advertisers jumped ship because Rob left Gaming Today.
This is likely an obvious case of "Correlation is not causation."
Rob said it would be nice if I visited Eileen (the Gaming Today publisher) "when I could afford to go to Las Vegas again." I figured I'd give him a heads up. I checked my piggy bank, and it says I can go late next week. Rob, would you like to get together for a meet-and-greet? As I've said previously, I'll do anywhere but the Plaza parking garage. I've gotta have some measure of couth.
More importantly, any questions or comments you'd like me to submit to Eileen? Could you verify who the advertisers were who stopped because of a "lack of Rob?"
All readers are invited to list some questions, and I'll endeavor to pass them along to GT.
How will you verify...that you visited LV, that you visited Eileen, which questions you asked her, and that the answers you quote are accurate?Quote:
Originally Posted by redietz

I'm assuming, if I'm there on a weekend, that Eileen won't be there, so I'll try to just chat with anyone in the office and ask if they have a PR person. My plan, subject to change, is to leave a list of questions with Eileen or the PR person along with my email address and phone. I'm not sure there will be any response, although last time I contacted GT, when Rob was claiming his article was going to be published a couple of years ago, they were pretty straightforward. Frankly, until Rob said Eileen was still in charge, I had no idea if she was or not.Quote:

Well, coach, my plans this trip are somewhat fluid, plus I don't really post my exact schedule online.
But I'll be more than happy to provide some corroborating evidence.
Coach, you know what would impress me? Your real name.

A google search, by the way, does not qualify as research. I can, however, heartily recommend Dietz Lanterns.

"I'm able to hide my name from any google search because of a bunch of PI's I know". "But trust me, my resume' is real, I'm real, and I'm well-known in the gaming industry!" :)ROTFLMFAO!!:)
By now everyone should easily see what a fake redietz is. The coach just undressed him, took him out to the woodshed, then fed him his lunch.
Rob, I'll give you a little English and legal lesson here. When you put something in quotation marks, it means the person said it or wrote it verbatim. Feel free to paraphrase and opine all that you want, but do not quote me on things I never said or never wrote.Quote:

Meanwhile, are there any questions you'd like to submit to Gaming Today regarding your stringer days there?
And by the way, in case you were unaware, people wash themselves off of the internet every day. There are services that do it on request for a fee. I have not done so, but you seem to think it can't be done. It's done all the time. I'm surprised a worldly CIA dude such as yourself didn't know that.
I'll even sweeten the deal so you can remember what words in quotation marks are about. If you can find my saying "I'm well-known in the gaming industry" anywhere in my 3100 posts, I'll cut you a check for 1K. If you cannot, you send me $10 for coffee and a danish. Bet?
In fact, let's try this, if you find my saying, "I'm well known" about anything in these posts, I'll ship a hundred bucks your way. If you don't, you send me $10 for coffee and a danish? Deal?
No, you cannot remove yourself from the Internet. All you can do is bury yourself on the Internet. The Internet does not "lose" or "delete" anything.
What these services can do -- and the only thing they can do -- is post new content on the Internet that will push old, damaging or unwanted content lower on search results.
Search deep enough and you will find everything.
So, Alan, I guess Rob's not searching for me deep enough, eh? I'm in there, somewhere.Quote:

You're an imposter redietz, and you can take comfort in that fact by knowing you have an idiot like BiloxiBill pushing for you not to be embarrassing yourself this much.
Hey, Rob, you having trouble finding me writing the quote you attributed to me? Offer still stands. One thousand dollars on my end; a coffee and danish on yours. Let me know if you want the action. I'll put a 24-hour deadline on your answer.Quote:

Also, I didn't say, "You can make yourself disappear on Google searches." Keep trying, Rob. You realize each and every quoted attribution is a legal lie.
For those who want to find out about scrubbing the internet, I suggest "scrubbing the internet" as a google search. You can decide for yourself how well you can hide yourself. As I said, I have not done so.
So, Rob, any questions regarding yourself I should ask Gaming Today?
waaa....waaa...
Deflect & divert---the true traits of every imposter. But you can easily bail yourself out of this mess by providing JUST ONE link that proves one of the many accolades/accomplishments you assert about yourself.
Either that....or keep nervously checking in for how ridiculed you are here.
Oh wait....I spoke too soon! You had the internet washed!! Haha haha haha!!!!
Rob, any questions you'd like me to ask Gaming Today regarding you? It is your claim to fame, after all. Surely they think you're the cat's meow.
Or possibly you're not.Quote:

I haven't written that much. I had many short pieces in the old House of Sports newsletters and such, but they were just game analyses. Most was pre-internet. I don't know where Rob (and coach) got the idea that I was claiming to be some oft-published scribe. I never said such a thing. Rob paraphrases people and invents weird straw man versions of what's actually been said so he can shoot them down.Quote:

Now a proven liar, redietz is backed into a corner. Whenever anyone's ever asked him to provide a link to at least one of his claims, his response has always been "it's your job and not mine to google it, where you'll find I'm telling the truth".
However, as the hangman's rope tightens, he now claims nothing can be located because his "group of PI's" has "washed the internet". And then instead of any admission, we get "bbbut....Hey Rob, anything you want me to tell GT?!!"
My guess is the phony is eating a gallon of ice cream right about now.
I have hard copies of virtually everything, Rob. McCusker Reports, Wise Guys contest standings, National Gambling Conference academic paper, interviews with papers, op-ed editorials published, Who's Who in Sports Gambling, House of Sports newsletters. I sent the link to the Heritage Race to the Super Bowl contest to Alan last year. I didn't want to post a link because, as Dan mentioned, Heritage is very private. Plus I don't do things just because Rob Singer wants me to do them.
I'll put together a hard copy package for both Alan and Dan, just so that if I kick the bucket in the next couple of years, somebody will be around to demonstrate who had some actual credentials.
I have never done an internet scrubbing. I've said that three times in three posts. Where in creation did you learn to read? Keep paraphrasing and opining. You sound a tad more histrionic than usual. If you have no good questions for Gaming Today, just say so. I have a few.
And please help me out with the "proven liar" line. I'm having a hard time locating the lie. Take your time.
The hole just keeps getting deeper, doesn't it. Now it's hard copies in the digital age. And a declined link to Heritage something or other because of "privacy worries". Next it'll be "my mommy told me to keep it all a special secret"!
Yikes!!
The link wasn't declined. Alan saw the contest result. But good try, Rob.
Yes, hard copies. The kind you can read and carry. You know, like your printouts from the vp machines that proved, what was it, hot and cold streaks? Or did they prove fifth card non-randomness? Which was it? Are those printouts still in that storage locker in Arizona, or have they gone all digital? If they're digital, you should probably send them along to the Gaming Commission, dontcha think?
Rob, just answer one question. What the hell are you going to do when Alan and Dan have actual hard copy evidence that every claim I've made is correct? You gonna apologize? LOL.
Arguing with Rob is a waste of time.
He's admitted he just posts online to troll people. If that's not proof he's full of shit, then I don't know what is.
I haven't laughed so hard since Rob applied to Dancer and Compton for a job.

OK...so you're a nearly unpublished humbled sports writer, who wrote about sports in his diary.Quote:

I don't keep a diary, but I'll take it under consideration. And "nearly unpublished?" There's a phrase. A couple dozen articles here, a hundred there. Not sure that qualifies as "nearly unpublished." In fact, "nearly unpublished" is in the same category as "almost pregnant."
You're working hard, coach. Glad to see you've checked GF. Note how, in 3100 posts here, I never even mentioned the Billy Walters thing once. That's because I'm a "humble" sportswriter.
redietz please end this agony and just give us some links. thanks.
So are you often published, or nearly unpublished?Quote:

More typical wordy responses to a simple point of fact. You just never get it. Ever notice how when anybody brings up your penchant for being elusive, you counter with deflections? And who cares what Alan saw and who you claim to be? To get out of your self-dug hole, just post a few links that verify some claims you make on here instead of dancing around things. Then post self-identifiable proof once and for all. Even that idiot RS__ has his doubts about you, although no one can figure out why he's too cowardly to say it.Quote:

But alas, it's true the coach rattles you a lot more than me, and I'm rather impressed by that. And at the same time you're ruffling that moron RS__'s feathers, which further piques my envy.
God bless the internet. And God bless phonies like redietz!
Yes, refuse to pay creditors back, we already knowQuote:

How many of your sisters dresses did you try on as a teenager did it take you before you acted on it?
Does that somehow demonstrate you are straight now?

Then there's the inimitable RS__....an online anonymous BSer who only impresses his inner self when insinuating he's not the amateur gambler he really is. In short, if you want to witness a moron in the midst, keep an eye out for him.
And finally, we have Biloxibill--a repeat offender under various handles of being a doofus. Guys like him are so stupid, my case gets rested before I even wake up in the morning! :)
Alan, if you are in agony over redeitz not delivering those links then you must be in wretched pain over Singer not delivering those income tax returns.Quote:

Yes, its highly suspicious. He got away with it for ten years where the IRS says you have to make a profit 3 years out of 5 or it's just a hobby and you can't file as a business. Or maybe he's lying about the whole thing.Quote:

I am not part of this argument, but what Mickey just said is wrong. The 3 of 5 is a safety net--the IRS presumes that it was a business carried on with a motive to profit if you have a profit for 3 of 5 years. But you can go decades without a profit as long as you conduct your gambling as a business.
Mickey I doubt he was audited every year for ten years. He was probably audited once.
I'll send you a hard copy of almost everything, Alan, or if you prefer, photos of the appropriate pages. Just PM me an email address or physical address, and I'll make sure I put something together in the next 60 days or so. I'm not posting anything for the sake of Rob or coach.Quote:

Frankly, my being part of Marc Lawrence's crew and writing in the House of Sports Newsletter and Playbook and being in the invitation-only Wise Guys contest for decades -- that by itself outstrips anything Rob has done or is likely to do in terms of gambling credentials.
The bottom line is that Rob has no credentials other than the GT column. He claims to have won a million dollars over 10 years playing negative EV vp games. Did GT ever verify that or vet Rob? Readers should call GT and ask.
Coach keeps criticizing me for my credentials. Yeah, I consider them modest. I would have liked to have won the Wise Guys more than once. I would like to have shown a profit every year. I would like to have been the top college guy in the McCusker Report every single season. But I'm not Sherlock Holmes or Superman. Coach, if you have such little respect for my gambling credentials, what exactly do you think of Rob's?
Rob, what exactly are you going to do when my stuff makes its way to Alan's inbox? Apologize?
I think Rob's are documented, and yours are not.Quote:

The problem is red, that whatever bs you spew about yourself means absolutely nothing unless and until you prove your identity in addition to your claims. But that's something you just can't do, even if you send Alan those hard copies....which brings to mind how arci did that and in the process, looked like a total stupido.
I do appreciate, however, your constant but minimalist effort to scratch that never-ending itch you have about me. My GT years of course are well-documented history, and I was in fact vetted by the great Chuck DiRocco as he witnessed the ease in which I won over $3000 while playing an SPS session, $1-$25 at Terribles--something neither Dancer or that idiot Skippy Hughes could never accomplish. Their rewards? "YOU'RE FIRED, fools, and Rob Singer's replacing both your phony AP asses!"
My other "credentials? Well, publishing a letter from Bellagio banning me, right off the bat is a bit more that you could ever produce. I've been on several episodes of the Travel Channel effectively putting an end to the myth about AP vp play. I've been on ESPN radio. I've had two gaming books published. I had articles published in Double Down Magazine and in Gambling Times. I've been threatened to be sued by fatboy Jeff Compton and his sidekick Dancer. And I've got a big "schlong" as you call it. Oh....and I have. WIFE and am not some loser with a "girlfriend" in my 60's.
Nuff said, don'tcha think?!
You`re seriously gonna brag about that thing?Quote:

Rob's mention of his article for Double Down jolted my memory. I'd forgotten I had "Scientists, Gamblers, and Magicians" published in The Humanist. That essay won an award of some kind, which is why it was published. I have to track that down. Thanks, Rob! I'll send that one along to Alan. He might appreciate it.
Award of some kind?...you are too humble...it shared the Pulitzer Prize with your interview in the Pottsville Republican.Quote:
