Since Singer finds it necessary to keep dragging my wife into the discussion I figured it was time that everyone got a chance to see who he has been attacking. The first picture is from a corporate awards event back in the late 1970s. Ignore the ugly hippie next to her.
The next picture was taken while we were spending our winters in Vegas about 7-8 years ago.
Alan, I'd prefer you delete any and all references to wives in the future.
Ah, Arci, your hair and mine were similar a long time ago. Unfortunately, they're similar now, too.
Alan,
Why would I list my credentials? I'm not selling anything to anyone on this site. And I let whatever rational arguments I make stand on their own. Credentials wouldn't enhance anything I've said.
I'm probably in some old copy of Who's Who in Sports Gambling -- if you have one lying around.
Arc has proven something I've always believed to be true. We guys somehow manage to marry women who are too pretty for us.
Regarding obnoxious comments posted by certain people: I decided a few weeks ago when they become intolerable to let them continue. Why would I do that? Because they stand as a record showing how ridiculous and obnoxious some people can be.
If I had eliminated the obnoxious comments, the evidence would be gone. Here and thanks to Google which archives everything on this Forum the evidence remains forever.
And if you don't believe me about Google archiving everything on this forum, copy a sentence or two from any post on this forum made two days earlier and enter it into Google's search bar and it will show up.
One day someone will realize that it's time to stop acting like a child.
By the way, I have discussed this with that person several times in person and in phone calls.
I would like to know who you are. If you are some celebrated sports gambling expert, I'd like to know that! I don't know if redietz is your real name. I do not have access to any information about how people register for this site with the exception of knowing what IP address they use, and that is provided to me in case someone needs to be blocked.Quote:

Those comments reflect far more on the composition of the poster than that of the victim. I think letting them remain does a larger service than removing them.Quote:

Either amount is equally unlikely to ever be accepted. Why would anyone pay you a dime so you can prove your own claims are true? Answer; they won’t, a fact of which you are certainly well aware. This "offer" appears to be just another evasion of accountability which will be used by you in the future as “proof” that you were willing to document everything yet nobody “was brave enough” to take you up on the offer.
How about this instead: you meet Alan at some of the casino’s where you’ve claimed large wins recently and get copies of the W2-G’s. That would certainly go a long way towards verifying at least some of your wins.
Fascinating. To come up with that amount you must have had some major losing streaks you failed to mention here, unlike your wins. At the end of December 2012, you posted:Quote:

Since I don’t know, and in the end it really doesn't make a difference anyway, I’ll pick a number and say that you were somewhere around $50,000 up at that point, (32k + 18k = 50 K. This is interesting because since you started posting here in mid 2011 you reported wins that would total somewhere around $30,000 prior to December of last year and had previously reported a $20,000 profit in 2010, which by themselves would make a balance of 50K. If your overall win balance was at 50K in late December, which included the 32k you had just won then you must have lost a almost 3/4 of what you had gained in the previous 2 years.Quote:

That would seem to be a significant amount of losses for someone who both scoffs at the probability they might lose it again as you did a number of times in late December and also scolds others for doing the same thing.
Anyone who has successfully passed from adolescence into adulthood? People who don’t go through life trying to bully everyone around them? Most of us continued to grow after the teen years and realized that while you can disagree with others as adults you rely on the strength of your arguments, not asinine name calling to bring your points home.Quote:

Despite repeated requests, you’ve never been able to document a single claim you’ve made in this regard leaving the only logical conclusion to be that it has been mostly or entirely fabricated.Quote:

You have two different formats, suggesting 2 different devices were used. That in itself isn’t too unusual except for the final two images which were taken during a 3 hour period yet have different formats which would seem to be somewhat unlikely. There are large gaps in the numbers, which suggest a large number of images were taken between the posted ones which would be quite unusual given the short period of time involved.
The file names are also not sequential, and in fact one series is in reverse order. It is difficult to envision a scenario where within the space of a week file image names could become so jumbled.
All of the irregularities noted above are part of the reason that a large contingent of video poker players question the authenticity of your claims, and if that bothers you the onus is on you to produce the evidence, not them.
Spock, you've just shown how much I get on your nerves also, and....GREAT!
For the po folk among us, I carry 3 phones at most times and they all snap good pictures. I think Alan will be able to verify I have multiple numbers. You may feel bad for the way I've unnerved arci about his wife and her lack of a gizzard or whatever, but it's more than a barrel of laughs when I get him to crack:)
And, my winning since retiring from the method of play that disturbed my critics when I posted the wins in Gaming Today, are estimates and unimportant to me. Instead of spinning your jealous wheels on this, why Don't you call the Silverton and ask them why I'm banned from playing vp.
Why the simple fee of $25000? Redietz can easily afford it. And while I wouldn't expect most slugs like yourself to understand why time with a wife in retirement that I've been away from the majority of my working life is worth far more than $25k, that's what it'll take. But please don't compare my situation to arci's in your next "analysis". If he cared about the missus he'd have used preventitive measures when he had the opportunity, instead of opting for the selfishness that's led to their wonderful downfall today.
In case you didn't get the message, I make fools out of Internet hacks like you regularly :)
I'm flattered--I made you do that? Are you really THAT over the edge from all my well-placed zingers?:)Quote:

Alan, I'd prefer you delete any and all references to wives in the future.
But I have a question: we can all pull out photos of pretty wives from 40 years ago. How about you show some courage and put one up of the beauty queen TODAY! :)
An example for the illogical Mr. Spock: We went up to the beautiful Hyatt at Incline Village on Lake Tahoe today & yesterday. Of course, since arci doesn't want it to be that we are enjoying retirement up here and just about everywhere, he claims I'm also providing false pictures of us being in our RV and in this fabulous part of the country. IE, he has yet to learn to deal with it as fact.
So here's a few shots from today at the Lake, which we believe is the most beautiful spot on the planet and we've been everywhere. They're not great because I was just fooling aroung taking pictures and didn't expect to post them. One is of the actual Hyatt, another is inside the casino where I did not play because I'm currently sick of playing and winning, and the third is looking out over the lake.
Which camera was I using? Why, this time I used our FOURTH phone--my wife's! Any particular reason? Nope. Just as when I play and take my money & phone etc. pack with me and pull out WHATEVER PHONE to snap a picture of a jackpot with for the whiners on this site, I grabbed hers for these shots. So simple.....
I just read thru the Spock review of basically everything I've posted since 2010! Am I really that annoying to read when I talk about or put up pics of my wins?:)
For your own sanity Spock, what I said in this thread to redietz about my winning applies to my play since leaving Phoenix in our RV. That's what I mean by "retirement" because, in case you are unfamiliar with marriage, this began when my wife retired in Aug. 2011 because we are one. Would you know what that means? I say that because from the look of the silly amount of time you've spent trying to scratch your Singer itch, I can't imagine even someone treating multiple bed sores would put up with such a waste of time.
I can confirm that Rob has at least three cell phone numbers that I have used to call or text him.
Rob, when you're right, you're right, and I come to your defense when you're right. But when you're wrong you really are wrong. I am going to make one final appeal to you stop your needless, vicious attacks and try -- as hard as you can -- try to make these discussions pleasant and without your "chipping away" because I am afraid that the chipping away has undermined you.
Unfortunately, it's not great. You've opened yourself up to severe scrutiny because you have rubbed too many people the wrong way and they are looking for the tiniest inconsistency to bring you down. You've brought this on yourself.Quote:

The Silverton -- or any casino -- could open itself up to a major lawsuit if it ever said "Rob Singer was barred from playing here." So I'm not calling. But if you have a letter or notice of trespass from the Silverton please post it here. I am sure if you were really barred, you got something in writing. Take a picture of it with one of your three cell phone cameras.Quote:

You have everything to gain and nothing to lose.Quote:

Some of it is luck and fate and so much of the damage caused by diabetes is out of your control. You continue to make these absurd and obnoxious statements and really, Rob, it's time to stop. Everyone has caught on to you. Only you humor you.Quote:

Ok Alan, I will stop pasting arci here, not because he doesn't deserve getting what he asks for or that I care about what my "image" might be to people who have no relationship to me or will ever have any effect on my incredible life in retirement....but simply because you asked, and I consider you a friend. He can tell all the lies about me, Cindy, his wife & himself that he feels he needs to in order to cope with the things that bothers him. I'll no longer say anything that might make him crack again.
As far as this Spock goes, he can make all the stupid attempts he wants and create every unprovable assertion he wants about what I've said & shown, in some cases, that I've won. It's no different from the anger Gaming Today & I dealt with each week when my column came out for nearly 8 years. These type people operate with only sheer envy driving them. And when you happen to ruin their days by explaining how something was accomplished by doing it in a way they themselves can't comprehend or ever figure out, they strike out at you. Only problem--as they all are eventually stunned into having to realize? They all thought & hoped I wasn't prepared for or capable of rendering their insults & namecalling & lies irrelevant, nor did they ever realize or want to realize my abilities after the fact.
I didn't get my ban from Silverton in writing, and I even think management might have changed there since they told me. It isn't a big deal because any professional or former pro would just go somewhere else to play, and as you have seen, that's exactly what I did.
The $25k: If people asked Bob Dancer to do this effort--and it is far more an effort than you seem to understand it is--he'd be quoting $200/hr, which would end up significantly more than $25k, and you guys would be saying "well, there's nothing wrong with him charging for his time, because after all, he's doing everything on his own nickel and besides, it's taking his time away from OTHER important things." I consider my "other important things" to be of far greater value than his, since my wife & I are making up for some serious, serious lost time, in exactly the way we dreamed of doing it....me, on many, many 14 hour or longer airplane rides.
Re: just copies of tax forms: do you really believe that alone proves anything, and if so, do you really believe the hacks won't say "he photoshoped them" and "how do we know his son-in-law didn't just prepare these exactly the way he wants". That's why meticulous evidence of withdrawals & deposits that correlate exactly to the gambling logs as well as to the dates of play along with all the notes in the audits and the tax returns, are the only way to make these forlorn critics eat crow, and are precisely what made LVA people run from the challenge. In this current case where there's no bet involved, however, someone like arci will forever say no evidence is ever enough just so they can hopefully keep their minds free from the agony of yet another defeat. Yes, $25k is more than a fair price for all this.
You're sympathetic with Mrs. arci because you know what it's like. I see it as arci postponing proper care until he got the daily need to gamble out of his system, while he brought her to dive after dive for cheap, crappy "free" meals. You do agree, diabetics do need to eat properly.
Impressing or flattering people on the Internet is irrelevant to me. My Gov't. job trained me for life: If someone launches an attack against you, you come back with strength and in their face. Although that mostly referred to physical attacks, the lesson was worth it's weight in gold for me in other ways as well.
Happy St. Patty's Day!
Rob, thanks for the exchange of text messages. I think we have come to an understanding and I appreciate it.
There is a lot of value in what you say about video poker and gambling and people should hear it and read it. Unfortunately, your valuable insights get lost in the mess of all the conflicts and that is a shame.
While even I disagree with some of your ideas, they still need to be heard -- and I want them heard because it is your different view which helps everyone decide what is the best personal strategy for them.
We have reached an agreement that hopefully will stop the hostility. And remember that what is written about you will last a long, long time and becomes as much of your legacy as does your winning decade of a million dollars.
It's beyond obvious that Singer has been caught in about a dozen or more lies by Spock. He will deny them of course like he always does. But, any rational person now knows the facts.
The whole multiple cell phone nonsense is just plain silly. While a person may have multiple phones in their family, a person only carries one with them unless they have some kind of scam going on. Just more Singer nonsense.
Actually, what they eat is not much more important than it is for anyone else. They just need to know the calories so they can take the appropriate insulin. Poor old Robbie once again shows he's nothing but an idiot on almost any subject.Quote:
