I didn't really expose team troll. They exposed themselves. I didn't set out to expose or fight with any trolls or haters on forums. I wanted to be able to share my experiences as a blackjack AP as I was going through them and the only way to do that was to mis-direct any casino/data base personnel that might use these forums to attempt to track and identify AP's and in particular me. So I came up with a persona that would lead them away from me instead of towards.
It just so happens the characteristics of that persona brought out some bigoted haters, in this particular case homo haters or homophobic types. It wasn't part of any grand plan. What was truly remarkable is the level of their hate for someone they though was this or that, just completely blinded them to anything else like logic or the logical question:
why a blackjack advantage player, who has managed to stay a step ahead of casinos and casino personnel in Las Vegas for 12 years, would be running around to all these forums posting all this information?
And to be fair that question was raised by a number of people/members of different forums (mostly privately, some public). Just not these bigoted haters. All they saw was a fag and they hate fags. Couldn't see anything beyond that hate to even come up with that logical question. But it all worked out for me, even though that hate aspect wasn't what it was all about.
