MaxPen had a very reasonable offer on the table -- and one which was free money for Rob, if he really had a Newell. His demands that Max provide his ID in advance are BS. Max, who is an anonymous person here, would be giving up his identity, and then Rob could simply make an excuse as to why they're not meeting. ("I had my people check you out, and you're dangerous. Not meeting you, sorry!")
The whole thing about needing to see Max's ID prior to meeting fails the logic test. If he were really scared of Max (which I doubt he was -- other than scared of forum humiliation), he could have offered to meet him in the parking lot of a police station. It's not like Max was demanding to take a ride in the Newell with him. There's no reason to need ID when meeting someone in a public place in broad daylight.
I compare this to when I sell old cars after buying a new one. I don't do dealer trade-ins or sell to used car dealerships, because you get terrible value. I sell private party, which does require meeting up with strangers and taking a ride with them. While the greater risk is on their end (because they're bringing cash, and I'm only bringing a vehicle which could be tracked), I still make them show me ID -- but only before we get in the car together. I would take a picture of their ID and send it to my girlfriend, in case something happened to me. However, to simply meet, I did not require any ID, because we'd be meeting in a public place, and I would have no reason to fear anything bad happening.
It is very clear to me that Rob never made big money through the double-up bug. If he did exploit that bug, he did so for relatively small money -- or at best he won via that bug, and then blew the money gambling later. Whatever the case, Rob never accumulated any real money assets via gambling, or otherwise he would have shown us by now. It's pretty obvious that all of Rob Singer's controversial stories are complete bullshit. Anyone who believes him at this point is either stupid or trolling. I actually believe coach belly is just a troll, and doesn't believe a word of what he writes about Rob.
Some people ask me why I don't ban Rob. I have stated time and time again that he's just a clown who enjoys aggravating people on forums. He isn't dangerous, isn't trying to sell anything, and isn't trying to scam anyone. He just enjoys telling tall tales and loves attention.
People ask me how I could allow someone like Rob to "mislead" people here. I counter that I've never seen any gullible people here believe Rob. His only defenders are longtime trolls and weirdos. And if you're so gullible that Rob is going to lead you down a path of -EV compulsive gambling, I can't help you. If that's the case, you have a lot bigger problems than this forum.
Now, if Rob were trying to sell a bunk gambling system (like Christopher Mitchell), I'd have put a stop to that ages ago. But he's not. He just tells tales and argues with people.
Anyway, I think this is all very clear, and Max proved what he set out to prove.
