I completely accept and understand this mentality. I feel a little differently about it than you and some others that is all.
Dating back to Norm's blackjack forum where I challenged a guy claiming he was card counting to a 5% advantage using his super-duper count, I have found that just challenging or calling out these guys isn't enough (at least for me). What these guys often do is just keep repeating the same claim, even when challenged, even when completely debunked. I think the idea is that they can repeat it more often than you are willing to keep challenging it. And repeating an untruth often enough and it starts to be accepted as truth. THAT happens to be a propaganda tool dating back to the German Nazi's, and probably much further back than that.
Singer is completely debunked, yes, but he will still make posts referencing or claiming the double-up bug thing or the Newell. As long as he is going to keep doing that I am going to keep saying....ahhh, no you didn't.You say this forum is for entertainment and enjoyment. THAT is what I find entertaining and enjoyable. NOT allowing these ridiculous claims to get any new traction.
Mdawg is doing the same thing. It is the Singer playbook. I believe he was debunked the day he made the "about even" comment after posting for 7 months accounts of winning 2.5 million dollars. (numbers thanks to Mission146). But that didn't stop him. Not here, not 3 other forums. And today he has been further debunked beyond contestation, and that won't stop him either. Tomorrow and the next day he will still be pushing the same nonsense.
I have said this before. There are other members of these forums that I don't necessarily believe their claims, or parts of their claims, or think they are exaggerated to some degree. I say nothing. (and no I am not going to name anyone).I say nothing because the math works and the claim is at least for the most part how things actually work. THAT is the very low bar for me. Don't feed us nonsense about machines telling you hot and cold cycles, or that you are Rainman, or that you can play a $100-$5000 spread and no one cares, or as we learned today that you won 4.6 million dollars playing rated and no one cared. No heat, backoffs, or countermeasures of any kind. Just high end comps. Que the Twilight Zone music.
Is that really asking too much? Just have your claim make sense according to the math and the way things work.![]()
