Ok Belly, I have tried yet again to treat you like a normal person when you are nothing but a troll and want nothing but to troll and play games. Back on ignore you go (on both forums). But before I again ignore you I will post this message on both forums, here and GF.
No one is required to prove anything on these forums under normal circumstances. I have shared my journey for years, including my results as I have gone through them, including some pretty negative runs and bad periods as well as the good. I call it the
"good, the bad and the ugly". That is what blackjack card counting advantage play is....high variance, winning and losing periods. A rollercoaster. I have seen no one share the good and bad as accurately as I do. Maybe the closest is ZenKing, but he only shares the bad runs which is kind of weird. When he is winning, not a peep out of him.
Anyway, people are free to believe my journey or not.
But here is the thing....the math works! Before covid (before 2020), I played 60-70 thousand rounds of blackjack a year at an average advantage of about $1.25 round. A little more for double deck play, closer to $1.00/rd for 6 deck play. Do the math. That is roughly $80,000 a year and that is almost exactly what I have averaged over the years.
Now 2020 and 2021 the numbers are different. I have been playing higher stakes because I am able to get away with it during covid with the masks and other things. So I have been playing fewer rounds at a higher average per round, for roughly the same expected value. It is all about the math and playing with an advantage, slight as it is for card counting. So there is no reason for me to prove anything to you. The math works and I am not on trial. You and everyone can believe or not believe.
So here is the point where we get to Singer, Mdawg and a few others. They make claims that the math doesn't work. There is no math that explains 100's of thousands of dollars winning playing -EV. So I said earlier "under normal circumstances". Well when the math doesn't work and your claims defy the math, I believe you should explain yourself. Still no one is on trial so I don't demand it, but if you want people to believe claims that
defy math, you should explain it. Of course these people don't because they can't. They come up with weird stuff like "special plays" and stop limits and gut feelings about betting up into a streak, all voodoo nonsense by the way.
So no I will prove nothing to you. The math works and explains what I do. If that is not good enough for you or anybody, that is really YOUR problem, not mine.
Now anybody publicly questioning me or anyone else, they should be the one to prove my claims false. To prove I don't play blackjack for a living, don't make what I claim, don't live where I say. And the funniest thing: a couple of these guys just did investigate and try to disprove what I claim and ended up proving the opposite that I am exactly who I say and live where I described in a nice condo. Having proved my case, they now are contradicting their own findings and investigation. Weird...just weird.
So if I wanted to troll you like you do me and others I could post "prove it", "prove it" after every single thing you say. But that is not the way it works. If the math works and the claims reasonable and backed by math, no one is required to prove anything.
So you should be asking for proof from the people who's claims defy math and defy how things work, but oddly, you defend them or stay silent. Why? Because it is all about the troll for you. That's all. You are dishonest and a troll. So back to ignore you go where you belong and most members have you.
