    Not sure where to put this, maybe PM would have been more appropriate but not sure how that would go.

    Anyway, I feel I should apologize for calling Monet a POS and a troll. My excuse is gonna be I’ve kinda had a lot of negative stuff going on lately and have been finding myself lashing out frequently. What I would have meant had I stated it in a more constructive manner....is that I just disagree with you on several viewpoints.

    No worries... don't even sweat it. Goofy things happen all the time on the net or in real life. I am actually pretty easy to get along with. My problem is that I'm not very good at small talk. I'm a very direct person. I had this dinner with someone on the boards recently and they were surprised that my conversation wasn't the usual la de da type of how is the weather up in your area? I don't have time to bleed. Another movie reference for people who are asking themselves... time to bleed? My point is I usually come at people up the middle in a rush. I might flank from time to time but I have found rushing up the middle has a higher success rate.

    People have recently asked me on this board... if you're such a hustler/con man type why are you giving things away for free? I suppose it is the inner conflict of good and evil inside all of us and I want the good side to win. Also, I like the fact that I'm able to treat gamblers to 800 dollar bottles of wine and 200 dollar dinners at the expense of the Casino. Plus, servers and sommeliers need to make tips no matter how greedy APs want to be... this AP has no problem toking in the city of kickbacks.

    I don't think anyone likes to be called a piece of dung or a troll especially without enough data or information. I lashed out in my own way and it's over. I did enjoy the pissing match comment you made. Now that we have hugged and made up let's get back to sniping one another... business as usual!

    Fair enough. But man, what’s up with the mentioning comps all the time. about the comps? I get it, if you play at downtown A LOT those two places give you so much comp that’s not really cashable it’s almost impossible to spend it all, unless you live there or ball out in the basement. Lol. Last part not a bad idea

    I have heard it said that Pride cometh before the fall. I agree. I tend to disagree that I am a proud person or that I am a bragger even if, at times, my posts may be construed as bragging. If anything, I am only sharing a piece of my own personal life with a forum that is supposed to be made up of gamblers of one degree or another.

    Well the room they have in the Cellar that is separate from the rest of the dining area is pleasurable indeed. You have this feeling, being the host of your dinner party, like your inside of your very own Xanadu. Usually 3 servers waiting on you hand and foot and bottles of champagne and wine being popped open. Perhaps it isn't like that for everyone but since I am not one who holds dinner for 8-10 people very often, the few times that I have done that I may have felt some sort of a power trip that I had to fight back. In a setting like that I am pretty quiet allowing everyone to enjoy themselves in their own way. Since my wife is from Hong Kong the table only has two Gweilos in attendance and Hong Kong people seem to be very reserved which fits in nicely with my style.

    The people who get to see me at my worst are the ones who have dinner in a one to one setting with me. I am usually better at one to one or small parties compared to larger groups. This is most likely why I am not, nor have I ever been part of a team in gaming. Recently you have posted a message to me to do my "thing" and "keep it real" so me talking about comp is basically just that. I don't consider myself bragging or a bragger. I have said I might be bragging when I was showing jackpot after jackpot on WoV but in my mind I was trying to share my experiences with the gaming community. Letting them into my own personal world if you will. If it is one thing that I know for sure. Anything that I have can all be taken away at a moments notice and come crashing down on me like ten ton of bricks.

    My father was in Vietnam fighting the NVA and the VC. Charlie if you will. He might use a word that starts with the letter G. He was what was called a LRRP. for those who don't know that stands for Long-Range Reconnaissance Patrol. Perhaps... maybe, Killer is a better term. Anyways, one day the NVA was in full force on his position and the only defense he had was to bury himself in the mire to survive. Is this being a coward? I can not say since I have never had the pleasure of going to War in this manner. I do know that, that SOB was accommodated with a purple heart, bronze star with V device, Silver Star, and a few Vietnamese Medals that I am unsure of. This bastard went over there for two tours and came back getting spit on and he said that he fought so those people had the right to spit on him. The poor shlub ended up falling down the stairs around the year of 2000 and that was lights out. Irony for sure! I buried him at Arlington close to Kennedy actually, well maybe not that close but in the same cemetery. My point is that people think they can hold their position in life. They think they can build a fortress around them and weather the storm. I do not think this way. I know that it is impossible to hold my position. Many people crack me up doing everything they can to squeak out a few extra years of existence like dialysis or surgery or radiation. They don't believe in God and they don't believe in Heaven and Hell... what in the world are they so afraid of?? I for one refuse to let them use me as a laboratory experiment. They aren't harvesting my organs without some sort of compensation to someone. If the pain gets bad enough I will watch a nice sunrise and take care of things with one of my .45 ACPs.

    Many APs could care less about Comps. I for one have no problem with them. I use them. I give them away. I try to never miss one even if I have to load up the car with to go food and head down to Main Street and Owens to hand it away. It isn't my fault the two places you mention changed the way they do comps a few years ago. I miss the Football Promotion they ran for the one season. They screwed that up pretty good lol. I had a room full of Cigars, food, and many other things because of how much you could just abuse it. Needless to say they didn't bring it back the following year and they most likely never will. It used to be a hidden system like the way they rate you over there. I am sure many players who don't play for a living do not even realize what tier they are over there. Anyways I like the system now. You play... you earn... you bank. If you play enough it is difficult to keep up with the never ending avalanche of comp. I did have dinner awhile back with Mr. Z and my family. If anyone has been in Vegas for a long period of time they might know Mr. Z. The guy has been in town for 50 some odd years being a native and I honestly hardly see him taking a day off. Anyways, I may have been bragging to him during dinner saying something about playing larger denomination machines. He put me in my place saying something like oh yeah... your a real "high roller" playing those "big" games. After coming down from the clouds we had a good laugh.

    It is apparent I talk too much about what gamblers should or shouldn't do. I tell them what to play or what not to play. Where and when. Nobody listens and I believe that on this board nobody is really listening. Perhaps someone is saying ok... yeah I get it. I am going to hammer that game when I come to town but they won't. They don't have the time to circle around and find the machine that is over 3400 and sit there all day and night pushing the button getting stuck 2500 and perhaps watching the loss swell to 4200. Of course on certain machines it goes the other way as well. These Reels that I am talking about are very interesting. Many times I am beating the game flat before hitting the Jackpot playing for 18 hours. However, you just never know when the bottom will fall out. It really is funny. You can be up 1100 for 12 hours going back and forth from 200 to 1200 and all of a sudden one hour later you are in the hole for 2200. Ha ha what the F just happened? Good Times... Good Times. You really have to be dedicated to do what I am talking about and you have to live here for the most part. Even yourself has expressed that what I have talked about so far is very thin and has to be executed perfectly. It isn't very fun or enjoyable to regular individuals. It would seem you have a keen grasp on what I am talking about and I appreciate the comradery or is it camaraderie... either way you get the drift comrade... comrade or is it camarade... stupid frogs messing English up!

    (*sarcasm* for those who need interpretation or an interpreter... here we go again!)
