Let's first look at some facts before the opining starts.
1. That record-shattering thread about his intention clearly stated he was reviewing my "system" - which is what he chooses to call the SPS. However, the hacks on LVA, once the initial shock of his cancellation wore off, are now of course claiming that the strategy wasn't in need of reviewing. Alanleroy showed just how blind the geniuses over there can be by saying (in paraphrased form): "Singer plays games that already are in favor of the casinos, then he makes further -EV plays which can do nothing but make him lose even MORE money". Naturally this is pure BS made by someone so far out of touch with SPS that he had to put on his "I hate Singer" hat in order to spew such nonsense.
Example: In SDBP I'm dealt KK887 and the "optimal play" is to hold the 2 pr. What do I do? I hold the K's only, because four of them pay 600 credits - which is usually enough to send me home a winner. And it happens, just like other FH's happen as well as any of a number of other smaller winners happen. It simply gives you an opportunity for the big win. Hold the KK88 like the paranoid AP's would hold? You have a 4/47 chance of getting that killer FH, and you are guaranteed to at least get a push. Big whoop. That may be enough for most players but it neither impresses me nor gives me the opportunity for a 600-credit win. What alanleroy is trying to say is that I'm getting slightly less EV for that one hold, and if I were to make that play a million times into infinity I would show negative results from doing so. What's lost here is that it is indeed only ONE PLAY--here and now--and anything can happen at any time. It is not the value of the hand you HOLD that counts--it's the value of the FINAL OUTCOME OF THAT HAND that means everything.
Lurkerposter, if I were like Frank and I could quote Shakespeare, I'd be able to accurately portray the amount of P-A-I-N you're sufferring after learning of the termination. Your distressed and rambling posts that flow from your fingertips truly does explain why you had to take on yet another alias to continue trying to scratch that itch called Rob Singer that'll never go away. Ask arci!
Then we have the usual rants of arci, who if we could see a picture of him as he read about the cancellation, we would certainly all have a renewed sense of what anger is all about. His non-stop "the math is the math is the math" is probably only surpassed by the amount of praying he does these days.....
Frank is a unique individual--nearly all intellect and he is self-taught. His problem inasmuch as it relates to his effort to evaluate my play strategy, is in his belief that nothing can possibly be real unless it was in theory form first. In other words, since I did not put out a mathematical theory when I developed my play strategy, it is of little to no value, and the fact that I've netted almost a million dollars in profit from using it over the years is insignificant and ultimately, meaningless to those of his persuasion. It always gets back to the same advantage player copout: negative EV games will, over time, yield losing results; positive EV games will, over time, yield winning results. These people just cannot grasp the concept that it is possible to win all the time on -EV games, because no one ever plays them enough to ever reach anything even close to being "the long term". So the word "theory" is and remains to be only a "theory" that can never be realized by any one player.
Over the course of his eval, because the strategy was so complex to comprehend and how it is an ACTUAL STRATEGY and not some silly theory, he changed over to evaluate ME instead--which was a massive mistake given how much greater my life experience has been compared to his. Theory ended for me when I left the classroom and began actually living my life with all types of personalities all over the world. Frank seems to have never LEFT that classroom.
The whole thing backfired, but I remain willing to explain the entire strategy in detail to Frank as time permits after we get back from our family vacation here in a cabin on Lake Tahoe.
Snidely, I do believe there is hope for you yet. So many of you really like to talk about SPS as if you know it, but no one is even close to being correct. And yes, that includes arcimedes, regardless of the amount of lies and misrepresentations he tells thinking he's impressing every one of you over and over again.
