Big Casino Wins and Jackpots

[DGenBen]

My only question is....+EV or -EV play? That's all that matters to me.
Either way, how much is he up or down?

I chuckle because THIS is the AP mentality 100%. This is just the way we think.

Back when I joined this forum, I was using a signature line about how I tracked my play via EV, adding up all the different expected value into a running number, that I called "accumulated EV". Regardless of what happened that day, in the end (long term) the EV and actual results would sinc up. I concluded 'That way every day is a winning day" which was meant to be humorous. But that humor and this concept was lost on some of the non-AP's on the forum. One guy started calling my accumulated EV "phantom bucks", , proving he didn't have a clue about advantage play.

Another time I wrote about a day that I lost I forget the amount maybe 6 grand. But I had gotten in a lot or rounds that day at pretty good game for a high expected value (EV) total. I concluded that was a good day. Again somebody, a late member of this forum, just couldn't grasp that concept and harped on it for months.

What are you going to do? There are AP's and non-AP's and we just don't think the same way.

I do the same. Poker writer David Sklansky called these “Sklansky bucks” ie if you had 80% equity in a $100 pot but got unlucky and lost the pot he suggested not thinking of it as losing $100 but winning $80 Sklansky bucks.

When Rob was a degenerate gambler, did he have to use a different restroom? I was thinking of getting an operation so I too could be a transdegenerate.

What you mean "when?"

That clown set up a spoof in order to try to convince us that he'd won $1.5M on one VP pull; only a disingenuous degenerate ("disingenerate") would concoct and go through such a self-destructive scenario.

Says the LV dreamer who admits to knowing he's gonna give the Oregon Indians every penny/every trip playing Double Diamond machines in his wheelchair.....

May I suggest you stop trying so hard to "belong". Anyone can see you scan these two forums every five minutes looking for something to do because you're so bored. Problem is, you just don't have the knack to stir the juices. And please, stifle your continuous "I made lots of money defending losers as an attorney" along with your claim to be living "the life of Riley" when you can't even afford to make an unscheduled trip to Pacific City, let alone go to your "favorite place" LV.

And wise up.

Some recent notables...

Unfortunately Pechanga got rid of their single like Ultimate X machines, I need to find some new ones...

All of those are very nice hits Jason. But most here are driven by envy because 95% of them don't have the resources to play at those limits. Just LOOKING at them is infuriating to someone like V or redietz or kew. And jbjb's still sweating. . More likely, they're all trying to talk themselves into how you lost everything you won....and more. Just like how they can't cope with my big VP win, and how your dad HAD to lose every dime he won after hitting those $100k royals.

I wonder....how much of that "EV" did you bank? You do know that phantom bucks are infinitely more important to have than the cash they pay you for these, right?

WTF!!?? This person should not even be permitted to use the term "EV". He has NEVER demonstrated anything except a complete lack of knowledge on the subject. Singer you are NOT an AP! You are a failed AP by your own admission when you attempted to be one and have spent every day since as a degenerate losing gambler.

With respect to Slapinfunk, he at no time even mentioned EV, as to playing +EV or -EV, which is exactly what lead Axelwolf to inquire.

Frankly Singer, someone not understanding +EV in regards to long-term winning outcome as you never have, as evident of you Phanton Bucks comments, just make you the laughing stock of any real AP.

Rob, you seem to be hung up on issues of "belonging."

I can only surmise you were neglected as a child, or perhaps sexually abused.

I play negative expectation games knowing full well that the odds are against me, and that is part of the attracition, i.e. bearding the lion in his den.

Sure I lose over time, so what?

I can easily afford the losses and I have fun gambling: there it is.

It's just a hobby, an interest, an avocation not a vocation.

Unlike you, I don't feel the need to lie to impress strangers.

Axel really wanted to know how much the poster was up or down.

That's what matters to him...but who knows why that should matter to him.

He used the EV is "my only question" as a smokescreen...then he asked another question anyway, which is obviously and exactly what lead him to inquire.

You should try to work the Zombie Fungus into that one, along with your attention to Tasha's garbage.

I think you mean "zombie-ant fungus?"

If so, voila...

The daft punk from Ontario bit onto the vein of a leaf and wouldn't let go.

Thoughts of genetria and mathematical paradoxes flooded his spore-infected brain until the final pain-soaked moment when "poof" his head exploded and out poured billions of new zombie-ant fungus spores, the wind taking them to the closest casino."

There, see how easy that was?

OK, your turn...

[OppsIdidItAgain]

Not bad for an ex divorce lawyer. Like a plant, you learned something, today. But, I still don't get the just of aimlessly trying to insult others.

[MisterV]

There is nothing "aimless" about insulting others.

The zing's the thing.

[jbjb]

I enjoy seeing big wins whether they're +EV or not. Just walked by someone that hit a $15,000 Grand hit on one of those Lightning Link type games and congratulated that person.

[OppsIdidItAgain]

Looks like your thing is zinged after having been zinged.

*looks up the word, zinged

Attic:1 Portland Pothead:0

Oh, the pothead left the thread. What a surprise.

Dude, unlike you I've got a life, even if I am fully retired.

Off to the garage to regasket the turbo in my 244 GLT: those pesky oil leaks.

But I'll check in later and interact with you, I know that is important to you.

Til then, stay daft...

[OppsIdidItAgain]

You're so lame, V. Boring, in fact. But, I didn't think that you were such an online coward.

P.S. Don't blow another gasket out there. Ha.

P.P.S. Oh, well, some of us actually do have better things to do.

[kewlJ]

I enjoy seeing big wins whether they're +EV or not.

My feelings exactly. I really enjoy seeing anyone win against the casinos.

I just don't like people who tell me they constantly win, in a "grinding", longterm fashion, when the math and the way the casinos work says otherwise.

Don't piss on my leg and tell me it is raining.

You stupid bitches should get a room, like Monet and Tablepooey. Ha.

Once again kew, I drew you away from eating baby bro's ass. May I have kudos for that? After all, we all know how rotten your crotches are.....

If Jason said he was playing +EV games on every one of those hits, you'd be crying foul. You've spent countless posts in the past demonizing him for posting big winners while doing the kew thing: claiming he's an overall loser because "the math says so". And if he said he was playing in a +EV situation for every one of those winners, you'd be far too jealous for that, and demand detailed proof. IE, you do what forum losers do whenever they are forced to look at the wins of others....something you've never shown proof of for your sorry ass self by the way.

I kinda like it when you demonstrate just how weak you really are.

You're just trying not to appear like a fool here V. Everyone with even a passing interest in forums can readily notice just how lonely an old man you must be. That constant trying to explain how well off you are is the dead giveaway....along with your supposed hobbies which sound more boring than having to wipe your wife's ass. Thus, you're only way out of a rut like that is to feel as if you're making a bundle of posts trying to be clever, when in fact you are in a pile of lava desperately trying to "fit in".

It ain't working V. It's actually getting pretty embarrassing.

[kewlJ]

I don't believe I have every said anything to or about slapinfunk. I have no idea how he plays.

Once again Ron is full of shit. His life now is hoping he can say something that will get my attention. He is literally the mentally challenged dude screaming "look at me, look at me" and if you look, he jumps up and down saying "made you look". What a waste this guy is.
