Which is what I first suspect of each and every one of Crimm's plays, which amount only to some perceived edge. But, now we know for certain, that Crimm didn't include the obvious with that supposed 216% play, that such gets heavily watered down, if reasonably possible at all. Thanks for that much, Mr. UKnowMe. Specific solid evidence of a nutty, if not total fraud, Crimm. Yeah, sure, you can win by counting cards at baccarat if you wait through a 100 shoes, and, then, bet $50,000 on tie on a couple of hands at the end of the "golden shoe". To make, maybe, $10, a very tiny fraction of the commission on those winning bets.
And, in general, say, that Crimm is still spending his days, at seventy, on the road in the winter. I mean, why in the world, still only trying to make money, by then? Same as the Wizard squandering his remaining days on this Earth at that forum, for absolutely nothing but howls of laughter. And, yes, they found scribbled handwritten notes in Einstein's bed - he was still sweating it out, trying to prove that Relatively Theory was the Theory of Everything (TOE) - when he died, a form of dementia, by then, with evermore complex and complicated insoluble calculations.
