Once again Kew is giving Rusty too much credit. Gambling forums is a lot busier and has way more views then Rusty's sewer. Due to HIS INCOMPETENCE.

Those "more views" are probably the owners spamming their site with stole posts from other forums.

The name of this forum is Vegas Casino Talk. That would be talk about Las Vegas casinos and a little more broadly all casino play. There is another forum called Gambling Forums. Should be self-explanatory. And the biggest of the three and at one time most serious Wizard of Vegas. This one takes a little explanation. This is a forum begun by a man regarded as one of the gambling math experts. His stated mission was "to help players be better gamblers by understanding the math so they can make better bets".

Gambling is mathematics! 100% pure and simple. Is it too much to ask and expect these forums with theses names they have to be based in mathematics and not long disproven voodoo gambling concepts, like progression wagering, stop limits, special (less optimal plays) hot and cold machines, machines "telepathing information". And the very latest, Singer thinking a player can beat roulette by switching back and forth between colors or odd even or any other of the so called 50/50 bets that hit 47% of the time <- .

Is it really too much to expect that when someone comes along to one of these forums claiming all kinds of (long-term) winning, that they have something mathematically accepted to back that up, and not long disproven voodoo theories that defy math? Is that really too much to ask?


We don't get many new members here. At least not many that participate and stick around. I wonder why? How many times has some person new to gambling, or maybe not new to gambling, but having decided to learn more about gambling and the math to give themselves a better chance of winning, so their google search leads them here or Gambling Forums and the first thing they read is some guy saying how the machines are talking to him, teleporting information, or yesterday that he can beat roulette because he gets to choose the color he wants to bet. Give me a break!

Or maybe that person finds Wizard of Vegas, and reading up on Michael Shackleford, says yeah this is good. This forum was started by and is run by one of the most respected gambling math guys in Vegas. So let's see what we have. Top Thread: The adventures of Mdawg", with no explanation of how he defies the odds and the math and wins almost everyday other that he bets into streaks. He can just "feel" when it is time to bet more.

These things and these people should be called out! And if they continue to make these ridiculous claims on a daily basis, they should be called out on a daily basis!

Just a suggestion, if you want anyone to read the whole thing always cut it down to two paragraphs and tone down the obnoxious bolding every fourth word.

Mcap, with all the time you and everyone else spending on the forum, you are telling me people can't spend 60 seconds reading 3 or 4 paragraphs?

And if you don't want to read...fine. My posts and criticisms aren't directed at you. Those that they are directed at read every word because they respond to nearly every point I make.

Speaking of loooong posts. Marathon "Cheetos" Mission has disappeared yet again. If he doesn't post by mid month he will get downgraded from Full timer to Part timer

Just play the bag game with peacocks.

Disclaimer. Those full bags are no different than full rice bowls and do not indicate a bonus is near.

Same with the fish in the fish bowl game where the salt shaker symbols feed the fish.

Don't forget the Tiger. The EV of the game is much higher when the bags are full due to the extras one gets for being awarded jeweled bags.
