worthless feedback
I and anyone else who uses common sense as their cornerstone in gambling, find it extremely hypocritical for any "AP" to give any kind of blessing at all to online casino play.
The AP gospel clearly identifies taking maximum advantage of any seemingly lucrative opportunity presented to them. They then fine tune this opportunity into expected value, and they play it. And as we've so unadulteratedly seen here, the aggregate amount of their play translates into "accumulated EV" (I call this phantom bucks) which they track as closely as the Clintons track Bill's herpes blisters.
So for ANY self-proclaimed AP to "take a calculated risk....aka, take a CHANCE" that "it'll all work out in the end" with foreign run online casinos, is the antithesis of sensible gambling. If there's the slightest chance that a game is rigged, that there's hanky panky going on with your account, or that you may not get paid when you request a withdrawal--and knowing that there is absolutely no recourse--then any "edge" you claim to be playing with needs to be seriously reduced or eliminated altogether. Period.
Epilogue: As difficult as this may be to read, accept or admit, people who resort to online gambling who live in the USA, and who use a bevy of excuses to justify why they do it, do indeed have a significant gambling problem. There is no other explanation.
I just briefly looked up info about the credibility of online gambling sites, and it isn't good. And don't keep tooting the "sacred" Bovada horn just because they've paid wizard's and other sites for their advertising. None of them are anywhere near as trustworthy as state-run casinos in the US. Any of these places can do whatever they want to their customers at any time and without notice....and there's zero you can do about any of it when they do. Stupid is not a strong enough word.
