    Quahaug I don't follow. Would you mind explaining?

    Not really as you avoid answering inconvenient questions. You are just like the "Dumb and Dumber" character,



    You equate any chance, no matter how slim, as being equal to high probability situations. That is clearly a fantasy delusion.

    As I've told you many times there are no "guarantees". But that doesn't mean there aren't high probabilities. You want to equate a one in a million shot with a 999,999 in a million probability. That is delusional.

    Alan continues to duck the tough questions.

    How is playing your next hand today different than playing it tomorrow or next week?
    How did the probability of hitting winning hands change? (which would be required to continually be able to walk home a winner)
    You aren't following this advice "Winners walk away and losers continue to play." if you play again, so how does that even factor into the discussion?

    Now, watch Alan refuse to really address these questions.

    BTW, QuadAAAA said ... "In the long run you will lose whatever amount you have won. You cannot sustain the bank roll by playing against a machine. Whatever strategies you make up..........the machine always wins unless you hit and run with a profit margin. Winners walk away and losers continue to play. I believe this applies to the game of video poker and I feel the same about the game of craps. "

    He's actually disagreeing with Alan.

    OK, so let's make arci look more foolish--which is a whole lotta fun! Thinking of him sitting there trying to cope by creating false arguments based on wishful thinking is very precious indeed

    I suppose I hit this royal Thursday for the benefit of Dan most of all, so he can see that because they actually do appear every now & then, it has to be that he might not really know what cards to hold in vp. Oh BTW Spock, that little black spot on the right side of the pay table is my slot card, and is almost exactly where the slot attendant laid it. I thought the flash would come on but the screen must have been too light. Let's hear your conspiracy theory on this one.

    Two days ago I chose to do a farewell-to-Reno RTT (Romp Thru Town on BP only, for those of you who never had the opportunity to read my GT articles over the years). This strategy increases the # of credits in addition to denomination. I went to 9 casinos, and I chose not to play any higher than the $2 machines. My win goals varied--in some cases where they had 25c thru $2 machines my win goal was $50 for each casino. When there were only 3 level machines at 25c/50c/$1, I set a $10 win goal. Pretty simple, non-greedy, and straightforward. And lots of fun.

    Like I said, $2 was my highest limit machine. But before I went in to Tamarack Junction on S. Virginia St., I had no idea the machines at the bar all took up to 10 credits. So I re-set my win limit to $100 here since I told myself this was STILL a $2 machine--5 OR 10 credits. It's a bit loose of an interpretation for sure, but this was my last day of play until next May so it really didn't matter.

    Tamarack J was my final stop. I played at Eldorado, Harrahs, Silver Legacy, Siena, Atlantis, Peppermill, Grand Sierra, The Nugget, and finished up at TJ. Before this beauty I had won my goal at all 8 prior, and was ahead $570 overall. It took just 8 hands on the $2/10-credit limit to hit this. I left TJ up just under $15,900.

    Nine for nine on ALL -EV machines. More profiting on those nasty, impossible to win on awful machines that no one can consistently do this on. And the strategy of walking with at least a minimum pre-set profit? Gee, I guess "over time" I'll be expected to give all this and more back also

    Hilarious ... I don't remember exactly who made the connection but almost invariably when reality is making Singer look like an idiot he magically has a picture of some big winning hand. Sure enough, as it becomes obvious that no betting strategy can create winners out of thin air, here comes bozo the clown doing exactly what he has always done. LOL.

    Another Singer tactic is to try and claim other people are having problems. Right on cue, Singer is caught yet again. LOL. It might have been CDDenver that caught on to all of Singer's habits. That is why Singer hated him so much and celebrated his death. Of course, all that proved was CDDenver had been right all along.

    If I may make a comment. Where is all of this anger coming from. Gee wiz..... If you're on your best behavior in public. What is the personal life like? My goodness. And so much disrespect and name calling. Alan, I total respect you and love the advice and encouragement on this forum from MOST. Why do you let people disrespect you so? I'm sure a lot of people are wondering.

    Aren't most people on here to uplift and encourage one another? Everyone's point is vividly clear. We get it.

    Have a drink, take your medication. Get some happy pills for heaven sake!!!!

    Whenever Singer participates on a forum you will have problems. That's why he has been banned from many forums.

    I wasn't referring to Rob.

    I know it doesn't take a lot to spot an arci anger streak when he makes it so obvious coming on in spurts to argue with Alan and show his envy every time I get a big winner that he never has. But we all take it with a grain of salt along with a smidgen of pity, since he has caused himself quite the problem at home with his vp addiction. And oh--you know that picture of my very happy & healthy wife at Yosemite a few weeks ago? Ask him to explain about his. It gets him every time

    Unfortunately even Arc seems to have lost his ability to have calm, rational, and intelligent discussion and now has resorted to name calling -- against me.
    I have been very tolerant of personal attacks. Rob also had his period of personal attacks against me. But I can take it. Ya know... sticks and stones...

    I've been shot at, held at knife point, beat up, faced death... what's a few insults over video poker and talking about when to cash out and take the money home?

  13. #933
    It's all arci has Alan, so it's really a Sister Theresa-type of an act of mercy.

    Which ex beat you up?

  14. #934
    Financially... all three exes beat me up. But that's not what I was talking about.

  15. #935
    See now that kind of insulting is fun and lighthearted. And entertaining I might add.

  16. #936
    Yeah... but it's true.

  17. #937
    Alan, your demeanor is admirable. Kudos.

    It's only name calling if it isn't accurate. Every thing I have said is 100% accurate.

    More obvious projection of your pain.
