The WoV Thread

[PositiveVariance]

Once again, these idiots confuse HOLD and HOUSE EDGE as being the same thing. IT'S NOT!

EvenBob likely hears words and repeats them not knowing exactly what they mean. Also, since there are many casino employees aka "Darksiders" on WOV , it is not surprising he picked this word up.

An AP shouldn't even have the word HOLD in their vocabulary. Definitely a Darksiders term.

I must say, it sure is entertaining reading EvenBobs nonsense. I keep going back and forth between thinking he actually believes the Shit he says or he is just trolling everyone, for his sadistic pleasure.

He's an idiot. 99.73% of roulettards are.

I think I trust Bob. He's a believer. His exaggerations go with the territory. Recreationals downplay their losses. If they lost $2,000 they say they finished "about even."

I wasn't there at the beginning, but I imagine Bob floated a system and was told you won't win in the long run. His obvious defense was, I'll only play in the short run.

Then later he added the educated guessing, but nobody believes only one superstition, so although he can now win 80% of his coin flips, he still must play carefully and cautiously to avoid the long run.

[Ray Finkle]

Nah. I don't believe he plays roulette.
I don't believe he has a shitload of cats.

I do believe he just spends time trolling on forums.
He's probably on a pet forum as we speak, extolling the positive aspect of owning dung beetles as pets...

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.

I've heard that the house keeps 20% of the buy in money in blackjack. And I've heard dealers say that's what the house edge is. But the 20% is due to the compound effect of negative expectation gambling by the players.

[kewlJ]

First, the house edge is if a player is playing optimally. Every decision a player makes straying from optimal basic strategy, he increases the house edge over him. I don't even want to think what the real house edge for players that won't hit their 13 or 14 against a dealer 10 (no break strategy) or any other stupid play that you will witness players make routinely.

Second, players playing underfunded or under bankrolled contributes to the hold being significantly higher than the house advantage. Say a player buys in for $100 at a $10 or $15 table. In 30 minutes, he loses his $100. That is well within the normal standard deviation. On the negative side, but well within the normal range. So if the player doesn't buy in for more.....boom, he has lost 100% of his buy-in, just experiencing normal fluctuation or normal standard deviation. 20-25% of player do this and the hold becauses much higher than it should be compared to house edge.

Nathan/Tasha I knew you liked to shit in public. I’ve seen you do it many times at Zoo Miami. But shitting in a public restaurant is a new low, even for you

Was it near Unit 1930 in Fort Lauderdale 6th av ?

This explains a lot actually. As you know a lot of faggots live in Miami - so it makes sense that Kuntstone (who is a raving homo that always dreams up faggot scenarios from his faggot-infested mind) would have knowledge of this area since he lives in that part of Florida.

I wonder how he was dressed. He also sorta leaves out how many machines he checked.

Sweats.

I would have ejected him for beginning his sentences with So.

[redietz]

I give him a pass on a forum. It's a conversational style. I think it has some value because it "informalizes" written posts, which can be overly declarative without all the nuances of speech.

Plus -- LOL -- I do it way too often myself because it has an informal style to it.

[1Hit1der]

Believe it, or not, I did that in my last post, but, for some reason, I removed it. Ha.

I will take a crack at this Monday. Looking forward to it.

How did you do? Ha.

But, it made sense because of the "taking a crack at it" line.

Gee, I like the coincidences that start off innocently enough, but, then, keep on coming.

I'm taking the test today. I was too disgusted by the contest results yesterday to muster up my mojo.

[Don Perignom]

It's a conversational style.

In conversation, it can be a necessary evil -- similar to the word "um." It serves no purpose in a written paragraph.

When you open a new thread and the first word is So, does it set any expectations for you?

I often close without reading.

No, I really don't hold informal written expression, as on forums, by more formal standards. I'm being too precious trying to "informalize" my posts, but I think some of that is I'm trying too hard to be "not an academic," partly because I'm familiar with most on this board. I know using "so" in the examples mentioned serves no purpose (other than to make one a dunderhead), but really, posting here serves, for me, less purpose than that.
