Some examples:
I don't care how smart someone thinks they are or how high their IQ, if you take a hooker back to your hotel room and are robbed of an expenseve watch,
you are an idiot !
People that believe and practice gambling voodoo, things that have been disproven for centuries, thinking these ridiculous things overcome -EV
are idiots. They are also degenerate gamblers, regardless of how much money that have
and degenerate gamblers are idiots! Now this isn't to be confused with a person who accepts the math and understands they are playing-EV and accepts that in the name of entertainment. It is that concept of doing the same thing over and over and
expecting a different outcome that is the moronic thing.
That a person writes well is a good word smith as redietz used to say, does not mean they are smart. This is a gambling forum...or supposed to be. I don't care about what education people have as far as college or who writes a good story. I care about who knows what they fuck they are talking about as far as gambling. And is not saying stupid voodoo things.
I would place mickeycrimm as one of the smartest guys on this forum as far as gambling knowledge and I have no idea what, if any formal education mickey has.
And that is the problem with this forum and it all goes back to who knows what they are talking about and who is just talking. There are a lot of people just talking on this forum.
