Originally, I contacted Mike regarding an interview with you, I was supposed to be part of the interview, however, Mike arranged an interview sooner than I would have liked. I felt there was no way to properly prepare for a proper interview that would get to any kind of truth or be meaningful. I did have a few leads on what I felt would have proved or disproved if you were telling the truth. I had to lead on a privately owned machine that actually still had the double-up glitch.
There was also something in the works directly related to Nestor and Cain that would have shed a lot of light on the situation.
But, after the interview came and went, that took the wind out of my sails. There are also a few things that you had discussed with me on the phone that made me go from there being a zero possibility that you played it, to there being a possibility.
There was absolutely one detail that wasn't widely known or discussed in any of the magazine articles, that I saw. However, that doesn't mean insiders didn't know it, because they did, it wasn't a super top secret thing as I once thought.
We all know that sometimes it's hard to tell fact from fiction from some of the things you're saying...because it's 100% apparent that sometimes you're just trolling everyone.
Whatever the case, as far as I'm concerned I think you're a good guy in real life so I wasn't looking any further for any gotcha moments. As of now, It's highly doubtful I would even bring it up if I found one.
P.S. I actually believe that you honestly believe in your video poker system and all the things that you've said about video poker. I do believe it's very possible you could have been an overall winner playing in that manner. Especially, if you hit a few big things.
I do not believe the system works in the long run, I do not believe in the five-card flip-over thing, and I do not believe people should use alternative strategies that are not based on math.
