No, buddy. I knew exactly where you would go with this (because I am aware of what I'm writing), so I didn't stipulate that. I was going to amend my post because, yeah, it's possible if my friend were Bill Gates or the Sheik, he was actually gambling on multiple sites and blew 500K on three while winning 100k on that one. But when I considered what I was trying to emphasize, from a writing standpoint, it just cluttered the point. I do have a writing degree, coach. Hard to believe, I know.
I chose not to muddy the point. Clear concise writing and all that. But good try, dude.
Meanwhile, that 180 million in bitcoin was quite a gotcha moment, wasn't it, coach? MDawg messed up by even mentioning bitcoin. He gotcha'ed himself.
The fact that you think and state that this is YOUR thread and the thread of the same self promoting name at WoV is YOUR thread, only proves beyond any doubt what a complete narcissist you are. These threads belong to the forum at which they are posted. You and your fantasy claims exist, only because those forums are so far willing to tolerate your narcissistic, fantasy, delusions, in the name of traffic generated and some entertainment value. In short you are viewed as the forum court jester by management of these forums and most members and nothing more.
If your claims were anywhere close to being true, there would be no need to come here attacking people and name calling and lying about other peoples results as you do. There just would be no need for that.
If your claims were true, there would be no need for you to cry to Wizard every 5 minutes and request people be suspended, banned and restricted from posting. Only someone full of shit has the need to shut up those legitimately challenging those claims.
If your claims were true, there would be no need to create sockpuppets supporting you, but ONLY at WoV, where that kind of trollish behavior is now tolerated. Those sock puppets don't appear here, where Dan Druff would bust your ass in a minute.
If your claims were true, you make the claims and that is it. Let people believe what they want and what the math dictates. You don't go to war with 27 members and list those people you are at war with because they don't believe your claims.
Everything you do on these forums and I mean EVERTHING, screams bullshit and Narcissist.

Now let's talk about Wizard. Just as important to what Mike says in these posts, is what he does not say. He is intentionally leaving out half the story. I don't know whether he is doing so because he thinks it funny and entertaining (and a traffic draw) to keep this going, or perhaps he has been told to. You do have to consider the possibility that some of these calls aren't his, that he doesn't own the forum any more, but I don't really believe that the case.
Either way, it is very disappointing to me, that Wizard would do what he has done over the past couple weeks to a month and that is enable and allow a claim that he knows is bullshit. If there is something he knows that has really swayed him to believe that these claims are true, he owes it to everyone to reveal that regardless of any agreement. He ought to be able to find a way to satisfy both. His reputation is at stake. I guess he no longer cares about his reputation as a gambling math expert....maybe he never did. Maybe it was all about money and selling out every chance he gets. That seems to be the path he has taken. And like I said, I find that very disappointing. I thought he was more than that, but I guess that is on me.
But here is the fact: These scammers and I place Mdawg in that category even though we aren't aware of him selling anything YET. These scammers and trolls, making fantasy, bullshit, claims, can't get any traction without help. They need what I call enablers. Here Alan played that role to Rob Singer for a long time. I will give Alan credit that he may have been gullible, believed claims that he wanted to believe with his heart rather than his brain (tales of grand -EV winning) and that eventually Alan saw the light. he gets credit for that, but he also gets criticism for playing the enabler for many years. Well, here, Michael Shackleford is doing nothing short of embracing that enabler role, and I find that very disturbing.
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".
What exactly do you think this does for you? Do you think reposting statements by people that don't like me, strengthens your case in any way? Should I start re-posting statements from members about you? That would quickly become a full-time job, with so many that think you are a troll, fraud, and bullshit artist.
I wouldn't even know where to begin....Maybe with Rob Singer, our own expert bullshit detector who has repeatedly in recent weeks called you out as a bullshit artist. It takes one to know one and in this case...that would make Rob Singer the best. (Yikes! )
Should I start there Mdouche? Should I take time off from my successful advantage play career to repost negative statement from people about you?
You really are such an idiot!! Honestly. You can't build yourself up or strengthen your claim by attempting to tear others down. That is just a narcissist thing.
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".
That's ridiculous on the face of it. I can access every detail of my friend's account if need be. I can see every wager. And I can verify his printout with his records on the site.
So unless you can access every wager made by MDawg at every casino where he played and verify it from the casino's end by checking records there is no comparison.
Plus, coach is trying to make winning 100K in 48 hours at one site the equivalent of winning 85K in two months at one casino. In terms of the likelihood of the person doing the winning having the actual net profit in the time frames being discussed, the 100K in 48 hours is more likely (by far) to be the net than the 85K in two months.
Good try, though, coach.
Now let me explain what clear writing is about. There's an old axiom, "If you try to write for everybody, you write for nobody." In other words, when I write, I have to make the decision, "Am I writing as clearly as I can for my target audience?" or "Am I writing so someone with an agenda can't tease out some confusion?"
The answer is I write for the former. I'm not writing for coach belly. He is not my target audience. I'm trying to be clear to the VCT audience. I knew coach belly would try to make the analogy he did. My point, however, was about how mundane the 85K-in-two-months figure was for MDawg. So I wasn't going to address belly's anticipated junk because it made the mundane 85K point less clear.
I should have added this before:
I don't think Mr Shackleford endorsed Mr Mdawg or even vouched for his claims. I think he just said what he observed and no more.
Mr Shackleford should not be called an enabler. I'd call him a good writer who presented an observation without any conclusion.
If someone paid Mr Shackleford thinking they were getting an endorsement, they should ask for their money back.
Mr Shackleford endorsed or supported nothing that Mr Mdawg has claimed.
Stop it Alan! Shackleford is now enabling Mdawg.
It was Wizard's proposal back in December that he get to the bottom of this. First thing he has done right. And then as quickly as that proposal came, it disappeared, once Mdawg got a hold of Mike privately and talked him out of it or threatened him, or whatever tactics Mdawg uses. That allowed for another 4 months of these claims. A whole new trip with winnings every single day.
Finally it took someone putting money in Wizards pocket for him to regain any interest in doing anything. So he observes Mdawgs play (for a payday) and reports back that he can't tell us what he really thinks because he agreed not to.
That is just bullshit! I have been a little rough on Mike at times, maybe some of it undeserving. But this is not right. Doesn't even involve me, except that Mdawg bent Mike's ear or threatened him or whatever he does to get my restricted from talking about him and restricted from the top thread (by volume) at WoV. Who else has ever been restricted from the top thread over there? No one. I am an AP, living in Vegas and am pointing out the discrepancies in Mdawgs math and the things he says about how Las Vegas casinos work. Mdawg couldn't have that so he did whatever he did to manipulate Mike into stopping me.
That is on Mike, but really it is a lot more than that. It is time for this bullshit to stop and Mike to stop providing the platform for it. Alan, and you are Alan, not some other make believe identity, I would think you of all people should understand it is long past time.
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".
Now lets be clear about something else. There is talk here of Mdawg winning 85k over this almost 2 month stay. So I went to the truepassage website where Mdawg posts his trip report day by day (truepassage was easier than WoV, because he is the only poster, so no sifting through anything).
I added up his reported results day by day. 40 days he posted trip reports, so it was quite easy to follow and didn't take that long.
the results:
40 days. 39 winning, 1 losing day. Grand total for the trip $220,800. The one losing day consisted of 2 parts, a $48,000 loss and a $38,000 win at a second location.
39 winning days, 1 losing, +$220,800! We are talking nearly a quarter of a million dollars!
I mean come on, anybody REALLY believing this crap? (except maybe Shackleford, and it appears he is being paid to believe what he is told these days)

Mr Kewlj your vision is blinded by your own bias. You hate Mr Shackleford so much that you can't even give him credit for wisely sidestepping any endorsement of Mr Mdawg.
You are so obsessed with your own anonymous importance that you can't budge from your own narrow minded view that your way is the only way.
Give Mr Shackleford credit. He's no enabler. He took $500 and delivered nothing of value.
Well done, Mr Shackleford.
I don't hate Shackleford. I don't even know him. I do strongly disapprove of him providing a platform for this phony, bullshit crap, just as I disapproved of Dan Druff doing so here with Rob (during my time here) and you doing so before that, and just as I disapprove of Norm providing a platform for a guy making blackjack claims that weren't possible. Free speech or not, these forums are supposed to be somewhat tied to reality. They are all run by math guys, who know such claims aren't true and I do strongly disapprove of them allowing their forum to be used as a platform for claims that defy math. That is never going to change with me.
As far as credit for sidestepping? What kind of baloney is that? It was Shackleford's own proposal back in December that he should get to the bottom of this. Now I am supposed to say, good job in side-stepping and doing nothing? You are supposed to have a journalism background Alan and journalism is about getting to the truth. You are sending out praise for the opposite.....side stepping.

Rather than trying to read through anything this
posts,
Just skim through something like this
it makes just as much sense as anything this Impulse Control Disorder jealous oddball rants off daily! The guy ended the year in the red and gave up, of course he's seething with envy over anyone who is able to win consistently.
The more proof is provided that
the more UNKewl he becomes and the more he unravels and rants. Gotta love it! But don't bother reading it closely, just skim the SPAM post I just posted, it has just as much, if not more, meaning than anything this UNKewl, losing parrot has to say.
I tell you it’s wonderful to be here, man. I don’t give a damn who wins or loses. It’s just wonderful to be here with you people.

Technically, the "Dogs," in that Baha Men Song are BAD DOGS.... MAYBE you should have went with Atomic Dog by George Clinton if you are PRAISING Mdawg.... Baha Men Dogs= Rabid, violent Dog you keep locked up in your backyard because he is so dangerous.... Atomic Dog Dog. Cool, Fun, easygoing Dog that you take him to the Beach as your running Partner....

Take comfort in the fact that no one is actually backing up his wishes to have you permanantly banned.
Smart is knowing a Tomato is a fruit.
Wise is knowing a Tomato doesn't belong in a fruit salad.
I am glad to get my full posting rights back! Thank you Dan!
We don't need records of every wager, MDawg's overall results suffice for this comparison...
MDawg regularly posts his daily results, his periodic W/L statements, and even supplied photos of casino verified wins paid via checks.
You haven't provided a single piece of evidence corroborating your latest yarn.
And this statement only reinforces your reputation as a prolific past-poster...
