Thread: Was thinking about blackjack

  1. #1
    Over the holiday weekend, I was thinking about messing with blackjack. Is there a better spot to sit at (I think there are 5 chairs?), I dont want to piss off the other bettors.....any advice?

    Some people think that by sitting in the last seat, "third base" that they have a chance to influence what the dealer might get if he needs a card. But I am not a blackjack player. I hate the game. Turning over one card even to decide a $10 bet is too much stress for me. I can have $300 on a craps table and one roll of the dice isn't as stressful as turning over one card in BJ with a $10 bet.

    When did pissing other people off become a concern to you?/

    Maybe sticking to roulette as a strictly 'solo game' is a better choice for you. Some people are better in team sports (which blackjack can be with a number of skilled people at the table), some will only excel in individual sports.

    When jjj started posting I thought he was spoofing Singer. Look at the similarity of the situations.

    1. Asserts big wins but never backs anything up
    2. Describes a system/method but not completely
    3. Shows lack of mathematical understanding
    4. Is caustic towards anyone showing doubts

    I would have thought he would have come clean by now if this were true. Of course, maybe he's just a dedicated practical joker.

    the IP addresses used by mr jjj was never used by Rob Singer, nor has Rob ever used mr jjj's IP address. Of course that doesn't rule out that Rob went to a new city to go on a different computer, does it? Nah. Why bother? Besides, I like mr jjj's choice in movies (see the other forum).

    Arci-Singer is at least intelligent. This guy can't make a sentence. Singer wouldn't have the wrong odds for the simplest roulette bet. You of course think singer's whole schpiel is BS, but at least he can speak with a certain degree of intelligence. So if this goof is spoofing singer, he ain't doing it well.

    the reason why this came up is because a few months ago another "new member" on the forum showed up and after a bunch of controversial posts I found that the IP addresses were shared by him and Rob Singer. It was never clearly resolved if they were the same person (Rob Singer) or if the other forum "member" was posting on behalf of Rob from the same location (an RV camp).

    In short, it was a "bad chapter."

    If he was making fun of Singer he would do it in ways to make Singer look sillier. That would be the whole point.
