Fine, how much are YOU willing to bet?Originally Posted by Spike
Tell me, and we can almost certainly go on from there.
Oh wait, you've no intention of betting, you simply enjoying braying like the jackass you've always been; hell, if you'd tended bar for me I'd have thrown my beer in your kisser.
But I don't mind meeting you or anybody from this or any other board, so long as it's a level playing field (see...Singer/Pelican Brewery) and I deem it to be worth my time.
I attended two WoV spring flings for heaven's sake; you want to meet me, fine, but it's got to be part of a mutually acceptable bet, with the wager prepaid into escrow; otherwise, well you know what they say: "Money talks and BULLSHIT walks."
Let's be frank: but for a bet there is zero chance I'd ever WANT to meet up with you...ugh.
The bull, I mean the ball is in your court: will you man up or continue to embarrass yourself?

Reporting on Spike's cat thread:
https://wizardofvegas.com/forum/off-...1-i-love-cats/
I wasn't sure how much of a commitment this would be, but it's only 5 pages although the standard length over there is pretty long.
Bob has a lot of cats, but it sounds like they're only given free reign of certain areas. They're all indoor only, claws intact which is the only way to go.
They eat regular cat food, dry and moist mixed together. Sometimes he adds boiled, dark-meat chicken. Plus the cooking liquid gravy. I can relate because I sometimes enjoyed milk in my cereal. But you needed to be quick about it. Bloated Apple Jacks didn't appeal to me.
The thread includes an ongoing assortment of subject photos. This is Bob's camera:
Wizard didn't post in the thread until page 3.
Draw your own conclusions.
Cardboard boxes figure prominently. Bob built a play tower, but the cats are efficiently destructive. He's contemplating a sturdier version built from wooden trunks.
I think you're up to date now. Do you have any questions for me about Bob's cats?
Someone needs to put this guy on a goddamn registry.Originally Posted by Don PerignomReporting on Spike's cat thread:

So here is the math. This dude has 14 cats. Guaranteed at least one will take sample within hours. Then the herd will follow

Bob blabbed a big secret, and I suppose you may as well learn about it too.

You and a partner bet opposites, break even, and collect a bunch of free stuff.
Wait, that's not what it says. It says you "about" break even. How do you about break even? Is that anything like losing $500 to collect $100 of dining at an overpriced restaurant? Sounds "about" right.
Losing money is what usually happens so it is the cost for entertainment
Free food is something special.
This AP stuff is not so hard after all.
If 2 players are working together one betting black, one betting red, don't they still both lose when 0 or 00 comes up? Exact same house advantage. I would think the casinos would absolutely love this.
Now I have on a couple occasions seen an issue when two players obviously together are betting opposite Black and red, when a matchplay coupon or free play chip is involved which all but guarantees an actual win. Casinos don't like that. Even on a one time, fairly small play. Pretty hard to stop, but they don't like it.
I witnessed a lot of this at very low limits back when the Palms used to mail out those quarterly coupon books to local residents in the area that contained 2 $10 blackjack matchplays and 2 $10 roulette match plays. I would see two guys together one playing a $10 matchplay betting black and the other either playing $10 or $15 dollars on red. Eiether version has an EV of just less than $5 which they split. I suppose the issue was the casinos would see those same 2 guys make that same play several times a day for several months. A hard way to make $2.

Dan Druff: "there's no question that MDawg has been an obnoxious braggart, and has rubbed a ton of people the wrong way. There's something missing from his stories. Either they're fabricated, grossly exaggerated, or largely incomplete".
Then they no mail both of you lock your pins and call you a roulette advantage player. Or better yet they erase your points after you leave wait for you to return, and trespass you. Been in both situations and a few other variations with negative results. This play at most casinos worked about 4 years ago. Hit or miss now with the downside outweighing the upside. Proceed with caution knowing you could be 86edOriginally Posted by Don Perignom
As far as "Offset" betting on table games goes, Roulette is a really bad choice due to its enormous house edge of 5.26%. Unless Spike was talking about Electronic gaming.Originally Posted by Don Perignom
Baccarat is a much better option. House edge being 1.17%(Average Banker and Player). You can play commissioned Baccarat and lose a fairly steady 1.17% or you can play EZ Baccarat version which doesn't take a commission, as an alternative you get less than full payout for certain outcomes such as winning with a Banker Three card 7 paying half your bet. There are other versions that "push" particular winning hands vs. getting full pay. So instead of collecting commissions on roughly 50% of hands as in commissioned Baccarat, you are paying it "all at once" on a fairly uncommon hand outcome.
You can keep a side count (Not a plus/minus count), of particular numbered cards, when the deck is rich/poor with these values you don't wager. This will not complete eliminate the house edge, but will definitely lower it. Combine this with the other tricks used with offset betting and you will do ok. Like SV said, getting 86 is a real possibility with these shenanigans.
House edge is irrelevant.Originally Posted by PositiveVariance

Incidentally, the house edge is not 5%.

Once again, these idiots confuse HOLD and HOUSE EDGE as being the same thing. IT'S NOT!
Two things can be true. House edge "has no effect" AND is 18%. Seems logical to me.Originally Posted by jbjb
Hold is the amount of money kept compared to chips bought.
If you buy in for $100 at a blackjack game with a 0.33% house edge, make one bet of $100 and lose, the hold was 100%. Again, two completely different things.
