Thread: The Adventures of MDawg (in progress)

    I would agree - what you allude to is what the pictures themselves don't precisely convey, which is a general low energy dullness to the whole place.
    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.

    I believe that you asked me before why anybody would post up fakery. I could list up multiple reasons but never mind that for now....

    From this latest episode alone, it just goes to show that a bunch of pictures posted up can be totally meaningless, especially when it comes to people claiming wealth and gambling prowess. Look at all the great lengths Rob went to in order to prove his claims. He went so far as to have an interview, he went out of his way to find a high ebd RV place(okay, not actually that far away, but you get the point) and pose in an RV and claim it was his own, then he actually made a fake receipt.... and that's just the highlights.

    The more pictures of that crap people post up, the less likely it's true. Most likely, it's exactly the opposite.

    MDawg, thanks for posting the pictures. I always enjoy your stories and photos.

    I went to my local casino this last Monday for the first time just to check it out. My casinos haven’t done much either, other than just allow 3 people per table.

    All the table games were the same; you could still hold the cards and nothing was changed with the chips. They didn’t put up any plexiglass barriers between slots or table games. No slots had been removed. It looked like anybody could play on any slot they wanted to. Other than a slow day and a couple people wearing masks, nothing much had changed.

    In my area I think things will return back to normal pretty quickly.

    Straight out of left field Axel posts something about Rob after I post pictures of a southern CA casino’s post-coronavirus opening?


    Rather than go down that rabbit hole I’ll just say definitively that close to 100% of Axel’s posts are Monday morning quarterback remarks by someone who’s never held the ball.

    But there was one post out of the thousands I’ve seen from Axel that was worth something - the one about how he was burned on the bitcoin transfer because some virus on his computer altered the string when he pasted it. Every time I copy/paste a wallet identifier for a client’s incoming payment I now think about what happened to him and am even more vigilant than I ever was with bitcoin payment requests. I thank him for that post. But - I was already doing this. I have always first pasted the wallet identifier to a MSFT Word work file and then to the message being sent to the client requesting payment, after being very careful to compare the paste to the original before re-pasting it to send to the client.

    In other words all those posts by Axel minutely examining in his mind the affairs of others and yet a demonstrated sloppiness in the handling of his own business.


    Bob - I don't actually see things returning to normal anytime soon, and this goes for the world in general not just casinos. One thing I noticed is that the majors in Vegas have declared that their fitness centers and spas will be re-opening too. lol I'd almost go to Vegas just to be able to get back into the gym!

    I also noticed at WOV that the Wizard posted a list of the casinos opening and left out every major.

    Obviously the guy is not on the email/mailing lists of any casinos - seems very out of touch, does he even go into casinos or follow what is going on with them any longer? and no he wasn't just giving he Boyd list he actually thought that was the complete list of all casinos opening June 4th in Vegas! - or does he just wait for someone to bring something to him and then crunches the numbers to post data about some new game. I had to correct him on the odds on Baccarat side bets and he still hasn't corrected the data.

    The casinos listed in Wizard's post are all Boyd properties.

    Thanks for posting the pics, MDawg. Here in the Gulf South things are much more relaxed. All casinos are required to have every other slot machine turned off. A couple places are using the plexiglass but they're in the minority. Temperature checks are mandatory in Louisiana but optional in Mississippi... a couple places do them anyway, most don't.

    Masks optional everywhere (at least for customers... mandatory for employees) and I would say mask usage amongst patrons ranges from 50-60% in the two New Orleans area casinos to under 30% in the Mississippi coast casinos.

    Not much social distancing is taking place, and there's really no way to enforce it anyhow.

    I know that, and you know that, but why did the Wizard of Vegas not? How could anyone, let alone the Wizard of Vegas think this was the complete list of all casinos opening June 4th in Vegas?

    Don’t worry, he will have the EXACT list of every massage parlor in Vegas when they reopen. And complete with reviews of course.

    Does this Wizard follow this forum? . Allasudden sua sponte he came up with the right answer.



    All you do is give me answers.
    Just give me the right answer.

    One of my hosts says that he expects his hotel on the Strip to be dead on the weekdays, more crowded on the weekends, with general light traffic for at least the next three months.

    We're not in any hurry to return....

    Palms isn't even opening this week. All the rest of the places I play at in Vegas, are.

    I haven't actually seen much in the way of special offers yet beyond the usual full RFB comp - which I get anyway, at all times - other than this one from Wynn/Encore

    which is for a $1000. gift card as long as you stay and play by June 30th. The play requirement is just that you play, not any particular amount.

    Most of the resorts seem to be rescinding the paid parking, and some of the lower end resorts like Sahara are waiving resort fees, but I don't pay for any of that anyway.

    I have a feeling there is a particular amount they'll require you to play to double the offer.

  14. #1234
    The offer was made to me - they know I'm a solid player. Basically the offer is - arrive by end of June $1000., arrive after June, $500.

    Axel - you make thousands of posts about how you "think" things should be. How about some posts about things that you have some direct personal knowledge, or holding back on the unsubstantiated opinion a little when it comes to things of which you have no personal knowledge.

    I didn't say how I "think" things should be. I read the wording and usually when something is worded like that, they do expect you to play a certain amount. If they do not, they would have just said, we're doubling your offers and not said mention anything about any extra play requirement. However, you are correct, I don't know what they're thinking right now and I don't know about your personal offers.
    I just don't believe that if you run in and make a single minimum table bet they're going to say you earned the extra $500.

    I'm sure there are others that got a similar offer with the same exact wording and we can find out, but of course you're going to claim your special and they don't require YOU to do it.

    Whatever the case, for the high level of player as you claim to be that's actually pretty crappy f****** offer. I got bigger offers than that back in the day and that was only after a few days of playing actual+ EV stuff. For months(using it sparingly) we got whatever we asked for from a host without any questions or further play, including over 8k worth of walk in private table/ bottle service at the club. We stiffed them on playing every single time.

    Even after those comps dried up, me am I girlfriend(at the time) got invited to their tournaments quite frequently, perhaps every month or every other month, I think they we're $50,000 giveaways, that included two 2-4 free buffets each(we got a little tired of their buffet and ended up selling most of them to the same person every time ), I can't remember the exact details of everything now, since I didn't run around taking pictures and documenting every aspect like some people do. They didn't offer us rooms, unless we specifically asked, because we were locals. I didn't really want to ask anyways, since I didn't want to tip them off that they were still giving us that stuff. We did fairly well in the free tournaments and drawings overall. We cash for thousands a few times, if I recall correctly, they usually gave us at least a $100 up to $250 in freeplay.

    Coincidentally, I wrote about the fact that we were still getting good stuff from there after years without ever playing again, and I'll be damned if it didn't end soon after. Facepalm* I'm sorry if this isn't coherent enough for you, I don't have time to go back and read it, unfortunately/ fortunately however you look at it, I have to go at the casino.

    What I gathered from that ramble was that whatever experiences you had in the past weren't worth documenting. But now you've made the additional point that whatever you write today isn't worth reading!

    One thing I did surmise is that you're saying that a thousand dollar gift card offer is weak - which you didn't understand did you, because...that was my point exactly!

    One of these posters is completely believable, in almost everything he says, in regards to advantage play, the other is not. You be the judge.

  18. #1238
    Judge of what. . The day Axel posts something that is not incoherent and that actually says something we may judge it. Tens of thousands of posts and no proof or clear outline of anything he has ever done. Tens of thousands of posts merely commenting on what others have done is close to 100% of his posts.

    That's all it takes to earn your respect? hey if you want to live by the adage of "I merely comment, I do nothing myself," then why don't you move in with him into his little condo, because that is all his advantage play has earned him, by his own admission. Which there is nothing wrong with being only modestly successful in life - unless you've achieved little and keep commenting on what others have done as if you know something about it, then, you bring it upon yourself that you must be judged.

    If indeed he has done something I would be the first to respect him if he would actually outline anything he has ever done, instead of spending almost all his time commenting on what others have done.

    Like one knowledgeable AP, drama queen has posted numerous times in the past, it's not very difficult, to discern, who knows his shit and who's full of it, in regards to advantage play.

  20. #1240
    By now, if you've been online long enough, you should also know then that a consistent story that doesn't contradict itself over the years is believable too.

    If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
