    Redietz has been emasculated by his partner whoever she is. He can't measure up to her to he's stuck in some comical loop trying to prove himself.

    I cracked that one!

    This is probably somewhat over the heads of most of the little people here--and it'll irritate the shit out of them--but I stopped flying in 2000 after having had to do it for my working career for 25 years....and over 3 million miles on 3 major airlines plus maybe millions more on others. I don't want or need all the nonsense that comes with air travel these days, and sitting back and laughing at all the delays, moronic passenger actions, and how poorly kept up our airport infrastructure and ATC system is, etc., is very relaxing indeed.

    To the idiot who mentioned "cost too much" or whatever: I'll bet right now that I spend more on gasoline each year than you earn in the same timeframe.

    Sensible explanation...unless you have to get somewhere far away quickly.

    Easy does it.

    I've never seen this game but it has the vibe of a certain game. I believe safecracker. Has a big tall screen and a random bonus mode. Lol

    But ya can't do the math to determine odds climate change is not random natural occurance.
    1) I only care about probability as it pertains to gambling.

    2) I don’t work for anyone. That includes you. If you want it done then….do it yourself.
    Challenge to redietz. We bet every NFL regular season game. You make the picks. If you lay the fav I get 2 extra points. If you take the dog I get a 2 point discount. Easy pickings for you.

    Probability pertains to all manner of life. Maybe figuring out whether you need insurance. So much in life is risk and risk assessment.

    I had to think wtf are you referencing in "working for someone".

    Oh, I can do the math. Probably a lot better than you. You bugged Redietz for some silly probability question you knew he couldn't answer. Not with the academic type way or the short-cut street-smart gambler way. I'm doing the same for you. You're a coward in this situation just like Redietz. You can wrap it up in all your tough guy talk about 'i dunt wory for anyone' nonsense. whatever.

    You made a comical assertion that it is all random and that the climate is always changing. You find the subject worth arguing on so I figured you'd find it worth beginning to have a clue about the words your fingers type.

    Of course not though - you still love Trump as much as ever. I'm fairly certain after seeing you on these forums for years, you're not the type to have any level of introspection.

    Your glaring projection of yourself is astronomically funny, dimwit. You interjected yourself into an argument and tried to change the subject. Fuck you, poltroon.

    I don’t work for you means I don’t take orders from you. Don’t try to get someone else to do it for you. If you want the math done then do it your fucking ignorant self. That is, if you aren’t stupider than redietz on probability.

    I designed the probability problem to be as simple as it gets to show redietz lack of knowledge on the subject because he kept bragging up how much he knew about gambling math (probability).

    Keep it up and you’ll be back on ignore. All you do is troll here anyway.

    lol. You crying about other trolls. I can tell when I'm cutting to the bone.

    Projection? Yea? When and whom am I shying away from? What subject? What am I projecting onto you?

    I just added it as an after-thought. The fact is you gave Redietz some simple problem and I gave you a fairly simple problem too. You're so gung-ho on climate change being mostly random (LMAO). Which is astronomically crazy simply because of how analogous the math is to slot machine math. You understand short-term variance yet there you are. Insisting on having an opinion but unwilling to do basic math.

    Your use of poltroon doesn't even make sense. I'll be honest I had to look that one up and my vocab is quite solid. Archaic for coward? How am I being a coward? I'll admit when I met you that time I was a bit nervous. After all you had threatened to shoot me prior but I've been shot at before so whatevers. I did introduce myself. So how am I being a coward?

    You're the poltroon here not willing to do the basic math. You made the claim that goes against 1000s of world-class scientists.

    Yea until proven otherwise, I’ll take Mick’s thoughts when it comes to AP slots. And the guy only shares publicly a few tidbits of what he knows. The semi funny thing is Accounting know this. No clue why anyone would argue or fight with the guy because he doesn’t give a fuck and will make you look like an ass in the end.

    Those who know, know those who know.

    You should reread this thread. You're not following. I'm not looking to beef with Mickey nor do I think he will make most people look like an ass.

    We were talking about trying to come up with an estimate of the climate change were seeing being random. We can look at similar heating periods and figure out how often such things exist. Then from there ... blah blah. It bores me explaining it but Micky loves living in his own little world of bullshit.

    edit - I'm quite over slots. Some of the walk around grinders I know seem to have moved on. There will always be places for big MHBs and longer players but the days of finding decent plays in a casino are kinda over for me. It was fun when I took it up. There wasn't enough info but .. knowledge of such things grows exponentially. Tons of people have figured out and have an idea of what to look for. I'm more about making sure I can get invited back to these big local poker games. Working on my people skills. Crackin' jokes. Given the 2 times I've been in that game - it is readily better. I just have to never talk about being a pro or things like that. Even if the host knows - it is bad for their game to have me there if thats my perception. I can't imagine walking around casino floors looking fro plays. I never did it that seriously but I don't even have much fun. Too many gamblign addicts know enough to keep everything trimmed down. Given all this I have no desire to argue about any aspects of them. My days of figuring out when RR is positive are over. lol

    Mick's lost it. Like I give a fuck if he has ignored me. I barely even trolled him. No more than he trolls Redietz.

    Maybe he can get Trump to troll me for him? Channel his energy, Mick.

    "instaban" he says. Anyway.. good stuff. I've been instabanned!

    Shocked you actually pay for insurance on a rental car, most major travel cards cover it. It’s one of the biggest scams out there but you still got a good deal.

    Wish I was there to catch up, one of these days.
    Mickey was less-than-neutral with his post. I was aware the NFL slot was exploitable, thanks to mickey's previous posts, but I was just mix-and-matching to set my profile a little. I wasn't going to play a slot machine for any length of time with a 96-hour feet-on-the-ground time frame.

    The rental car -- my cards don't cover the insurance free any longer -- it broke my heart when Discover stopped doing it -- so I use the el cheapo Priceline option. The trick to Priceline is that you sign up with an options selection (Alamo, Dollar, and so on -- I don't use the discounters), and then they try to stick you with an electric car. I then say something like, "Great, well, I'm looking forward to the tutorial; hope I don't wreck it" when you get to the desk, and then the booth guy, who will be responsible for you learning how to use the thing, says, "Ummm, wait, I think we have a nice gasoline RV right here," and off you go. I wanted to ask you about the credit card option for rental car insurance -- my cards are not top-of-the-line; they are pretty ordinary with maybe 15K limits except for Discover, which had been my go-to card. But Discover dropped the insurance coverage. So what would you recommend? I'm probably going to qualify for almost any card right now, so I will follow your advice. I appreciate it. Yeah, I used cards for insurance coverage up until the pandemic started, then the peon cards dropped it for the most part, and Discover quit.

    Note: Boz's advice here will be worth it's weight in gold, so pay attention.

    Two further comments: If you get out to South Point, they have decorated all of the trees surrounding the casino parking areas, so it's really quite old-school lovely. And I realized, after reading what I wrote as a summary, you know what's curious about the thousands of kewlJs posts? No details. None. Not about eating, driving, decorations, music, what they do for entertainment, absolutely none. I bet a police interviewer would have a forensics blast with analyzing the kewlJs' posts.

    And yes, MDawg, please quote me, and put another coffee on my tab.

    Also, just for the record, the airport Starbucks is cheaper than the $6.50 a cup GN Starbucks. Forensics details -- the key to credibility.
    Cool story. Credibility isn't something that's self applied though dude, any first year journalism student knows that.

    Speaking of credibility, you recommended pinkbox aka always day old shitbox donuts.

  15. #55
    Disagree on PinkBox. Better than Dunkin'. Better than anything else downtown. And if you are eating them at 7 AM, as I generally am, not that old. And the coffee is better than Dunkin' or Starbucks, at least for me. I think I had Circa donuts once -- not bad but not knocking my socks off. I've actually had pretty much all of the downtown pastries, I think. I may be worse than monet for the downtown pastry tour.

    And pardone moi if I don't really think "AP" expertise extends to donut sampling.

  16. #56
    Best donuts I ever had was a place called the donut bar at 6th and Carson a block from El Cortez. There would be a line out the door in early mornings and they sold out about noon. Sadly the closed up last year.

    This game piqued my interest as we walked the floor of SP. I inserted two 20's to hit it. My question is "can Rising Rockets Empress be considered playable by AP's"?

    No - this is known as a fake persistent-state game. The green, pinkish, and blue features above the reels go off randomly and have no correlation with how many wicks are lit.

    Nice hit - congratulations.
