I hate to quote blackhole, but you need hip high waders to trudge through all the bullshit here.
My mind is like Mdawg's. Only I spread from 1 to 10,000 when I play blackjack. Why not? LOL. And I usually play in the parking lot of South Point, because (1) I can't park my Newell in Caesars' or Cosmo without knocking the top off and (2) if I'm going to be backroomed (or backdoored), I'd rather it be in my place of residence.
You have guys in Hickory, NC claiming to be in Tahoe, then three weeks later saying they can prove they are NOW in Tahoe. LOL. You have guys who win 50 out of 52 sessions, getting comped all the livelong day, and they aren't mentioning that (1) their significant other blows 20k a day on slots or (2) they're really in town for the male escorts and blackjack is their cover.
You have guys who think APs somehow know how to leverage bonuses better than people with 30 sports accounts for 50 years. You have guys who claim that they can swing over to "other AP opportunities" to the tune of 100k a year since their blackjack days are numbered. You have guys who know their slots and travel the country but don't actually file as professional gamblers because...why? Because they are traveling male escorts? Kind of like travel nurses, only better paid. You have guys who have spent their adult lives as APs and a large part of it in LV, but don't know prostitution is illegal in LV. You have guys who claim to have played blackjack in LV for a decade, but know nothing about male escorts in LV.
Goddamn. Start up a new forum. At least try to be believable.
And, oh yeah, let's give another guy his due. You have a guy waxing eloquent about why don't handicappers data mine actual results? And the biggest selling football annual in the country has been publishing that stuff for more than 30 years. This guy never read it but considers himself savvy enough to weigh in with his expertise because he once wrote a program. LOL.
You know, honestly, this place wasn't great under Alan. But it is a Grade A bullshitting clusterfuck these days.
