Thread: One of Alan Mendelson's sickest runs!

  1. #1
    This was long before people were taking photos of things and posting them anywhere... It must have been 2006 or 2007...

    He got a promotional CD-Rom in the mail for an online casino... The name I couldn't tell you... The CD included a welcome offer of 7x7x7 of free-play 7x7x7 = $343... He installed the CD and played, was playing Video Poker with his favorite game "Super Aces Bonus" where any 4-Aces paid 2000 credits (no kicker needed). He was playing on dollars to start and poof, hit 4-Aces for $2000...

    So now he has $2000+ on the site... He called them to see if he could cash out, and the person said he needed to play through $XX,XXX before he could cash out... He said that would never happen so just proceeded to play... he switched to $5 denom and he played and played and played... He proceeded to hit multiple 4-Aces for $10,000 and even a royal for $20,000! He ended up cashing out $47,000... We were not sure he would actually get the money but sure enough, a few days later it hit his account!

    The next day he got a call from the online casino executive to congratulate him on his run and asked about doing an interview with him. He agreed, it was published online I couldn't tell you the name of the casino and the photo is too blurry to make it out... He proceeded to tell the story about how he called and the person said he would need to play through $XX,XXX before he could cash out, and the casino exec said "you were informed the amount in error it was actually much less" or something along those lines...

    This was one of the few and only times he played any online casino game and it certainly paid out!

    Some old Royal Flush photos of Alan.

    He was a financial reporter. I believe that photo was at the federal reserve when he was talking about new bills or something. I don't remember, I wish I did.

    It was really funny when we were in Vegas. He had a nationally recognized voice. We were playing craps and this guy at the other end of the table said "Hey you sound like Alan Mendelson" and my dad said "I am" and the guy said, "No your not, Alan Mendelson tells us not to gamble." Was one of the funniest things...

    There is nothing in Alan Mendelson's past that would lead anyone to believe that he lies or exaggerates, while on the other hand UNKewlJ is a proven and admitted liar.

    Therefore, UNKewlJ had no standing to question Alan's claim of 18 yo's in a row.

    I don't recognize the casino logo, but it looks like he made good choices because I believe the software provider (Microgaming) was known to intervene in the event of a cashout dispute, and the software had an excellent reputation for fairness. The Super Aces knockoff was the highest EV video poker option at 99.9%.

    God damn it dawg, quit fucking hijacking threads to support your ongoing crusade against KJ.

    Have you no respect for the dead?

    UNKewlJ isn't dead, he merely pretended to be.

    Yes, just as you've pretended to win over four million on the strip over many months while being fully comped.

    C'mon man...

    Remember when FraudJ called Alan "Mendelbread"?

    Yes UNKewlJ is a distasteful type.

    Good riddance.

    Jason (slapinfunk), I apologize for these trolls hijacking your thread. It was a nice thread remembering your father and sharing some things some of us didn't know about him.

    Cashing out ANY amount from a free play offer is advantage play, much less $47,000. Your father never shared much if anything that he did playing with an advantage. So based on this account, at least in this instance, I can say: The late Alan Mendelson, advantage player.
    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".

    So much for UNKewlJ's latest vow to stay away. He didn't even make it 48 hours.

    Alan posted in a way to get people to just give up information to “prove” him wrong. It’s understandable that you would miss this given your demeanor. He did this to me as well on one occasion over at WOV. I believe He understood VP advantage play, and mail very well based on my private communication with him there.

    Alan enjoyed arguing about gambling and he had opinions which he held on to regardless of any counter-argument / offer of proof.

    I've oft felt he made up the eighteen yo's in a row claim just to be provocative.

    That was one of the things that annoyed me about Alan. The one thing I did get a kick out of though was seeing him hitting on the ladies at the Red Rock slot machines by the craps table he spent so much time at. Back then I was in and out of Red Rock frequently and would have to say I have seen him flirting with the ladies at least 4 times. Overall you can tell he was a decent guy even though he could be annoying.

    He was a decent looking guy and famous in So Cal; it wouldn't surprise me is he was a successful pussy-hound.

    You would think that. Given that you can't even grasp that UNKewlJ lies about each and every thing.

    Alan genuinely believed that that many 11s came in a row.

    Oh boy do I have some good stories about him with the ladies and us meeting ladies in Vegas together.

    Love to hear 'em...

    I'm sure your dad figured out the "secret" that so many never have: "Just ask."

    Ho ho, attempting to discredit me, are ya?

    Well boyo, you're wrong two ways:

    You've no clue as to what I really do or do not "grasp," and KJ does not lie about "each and every thing."

    No one need discredit you - like UNKewlJ you do it to yourself.
