Risky gambling bets you made that paid off? :)

[kewlJ]

That would be me...desperate and confused. Did I go to college for a year, for two years, did I get a degree, did I never go? Was I broke, did my uncle pay for Villanova at 65K a year, did I get a scholarship, did I allow my uncle to sink 65K into my education and then quit because I felt badly that he was spending too much? The options are numerous and unfortunately all documented here, all by the same idiot scribe(s). I find it hard to believe one person would fuck up their own alleged story so badly.

What is this nonsense about you continuing to mis-represent the facts when you know the truth. No uncle. No 65K a year. The only "uncle" involved in my going to college was "Uncle Sam" as I got a scholarship because my father passed away while on the job working as a federal employee. But that scholarship covered most of my college cost. I was on the hook for about 10 grand, which my Grandfather wanted to pay. Am I missing something? Is it some sort of Hillbilly Humor to say "uncle" instead of "grandfather". It is lost on me.

Now your college "story" makes a lot of sense. You went to Penn State, where you majored in journalism and English lit type shit. And then according to your "story" that I read just the other day, a year after graduating, you put that degree to work by becoming a professional gambler, or sports bettor (again, according to your story). That makes a lot of sense. Maybe that English major helped you write a better "tout" advertisement for the clients you needed money from??

Anyway, continue on with whatever it is you are doing on this forum with 8 people. I am just saying, you really aren't helping your cause by buddying up to two of the biggest trolls and gambling story-tellers on gambling forums. Maybe you can buddy up to EvenBob and some of the system players at GF as well. Maybe you can buddy up to Druff's obsession, Christopher Mitchell or the micki Maze guy or the blackjack Army guy, who last I heard was in prison.

lack of any entries in any blackjack databases

As if this life-long LOSING degenerate gambler would know anything about any of the databases. If he can even name one of the databases, it is only because I have named several. Not a chance in hell this retard would have access to any or know how to gain access to any of them.

BUT, as a life-time losing player, just the kind of player the casinos want, he is probably on some list of gambling degenerates the casinos crave and circulate. The great "Dope of Las Vegas". Or is that "Dupe".

[redietz]

Classic KewlJ(s). Villanova currently costs (including room and board) 65K a year. Look it up. Average college degree these days is a five-year project. Look it up.

KewlJ(s) has changed his/their story regarding his/their college adventure dramatically and many times.

KewlJ(s) provide no details regarding Las Vegas or gambling in the city. Their/his posting is all generic, vanilla generalities -- no details, no verifiable facts, no verifiable people. I mean, Jesus, the KewlJ(s) have 12,000 posts on this God-forsaken forum and no details. All because he's the I-Spy of blackjack play on the LV strip. Munchkin retired from blackjack in Las Vegas, but the KewlJ goes strong because he's a veritable chameleon. He ducks, he dodges, he weaves -- he doesn't show up on video because he's a master of disguise. He knows what every room tolerates.

Now if only he could keep his stories semi-straight (see what I did there?). I guess it's a gay thing -- if you keep your stories straight, it affects your sex life if you're gay.

[MisterV]

Meanwhile, the hound plots and schemes his latest outrage against his most formidable adversary, the legendary kewlj.

From deep within the bowels of his seven figure LV mansion he calls in favors from back home: soon the LV strip will thunder with the sound of hundreds of rabid, foaming camels, their swarthy, filthy drivers screaming "death to the infidel," summarily beheading any and all gay card counters which the hound has cleverly lured into honey traps.

Be afraid, be very afraid.

I said it before and I’ll say it again, it’s a damn shame Alan died and this miserable old fuck is still alive.

In fact, I may have to say it again.

I don't read many of his posts anymore. there is not even entertainment value. He obviously has some gambling knowledge, but it is mostly that of a losing "degen" type player. Systems and progessive wagering and all that shit. And now he claims he does all that online and wins.

EvenBob or spike as you call him, did have a basic understanding of card counting because I spoke to him about it a couple times. But a "basic understanding" is NOT enough to win long-term especially with no understanding of money management and RoR type stuff. What is the old saying "knowing just enough to lose"

Funniest story your EvenBob/Spike told me was years ago, probably decades (many) ago that he was a cab driver and used to pull up to a casino and leave his cab running while he went inside to gambler. I mean that could have been shades of Richard Dryfusss or the other cab driver "Looney' from the movie Let it Ride, if they incorporated a casino scene into the movie. Very typical degenerate gambler thing to do. Hello Evenbob/Spike.

He is harmless though.

[MisterV]

Yes he can regale anyone foolish enough to listen for hours with his tales of cab driving, bar tending and antagonizing his detractors into getting suspended at WoV.

A true man of the people, Spike; gotta wonder though why he changed his handle from Spike to Ever The Boob?

He was a laughingstock at GG; some things never change.

What?????

Why is he harmless when you feel MDawg is potentially harmful to others? Both spew mathematically impossible claims without details.

Both push to get others suspended for calling them out on it or questioning it. To me there is little difference between the 2 when it comes to trolling and gambling claims.

If one is “harmless” than the other is as well, at least in the regards to gambling claims.

This post by you again demonstrates a complete lack of understanding of what it is to be a card counter/ table game AP in Vegas. Right up there with your not understanding APs need for anonymity.

I have shared more about what I do and have done for 15 years in Vegas than any other AP in the history of forums. But I also know enough not to share certain things.

And for what reason anyway? I shared in great detail, a technique that I and a number of real card counters/AP employed, tracking a second table while playing a primary, a version of the spotter/call in approach, with he player playing both roles. This technique can almost double the normal EV per period of time, when conditions were right that you could employ it.

You know what I got for that? Some of the goofiest shit in the world, x-ray vision comments, a guy running to the casino who took blurry pictures on a cell phone. All kinds of nonsense from people that don't even play blackjack, let alone have even a clue of any kind of AP techniques. So why would I share anything else like that?

So you want me or any real AP to give blow by blow descriptions of play, that in most cases could be identifying to the very group of people (casinos) that we fight a war to be able to play with on a daily basis?

Please!! For a guy who knows so little, you sure do talk a lot, Red.

Yeah, yeah, the anonymous dude who never describes a restaurant or a show or what the color of the billboard is across the street. And who can keep playing when Hall of Famers retire. Makes perfect sense.

The reality of the kewlj(s) is obvious as hell to anyone who reads this tripe. And now he's a bonus-pluckin', sports-gamblin' whiz on top of his blackjack whiz-kid-edness.

It all makes sense...if you're pumped full of ether and bourbon.

And once again, a thread hijacked by The Boy Wonder and the Wolf, creme de la creme experts.

And MDawg, please quote me on this.

Oh and as for Munchkin, there are a whole lot of players like him, not necessity as smart or good as him, but a whole bunch of players that began APing by counting cards, 20, 30 years ago or even longer, including a number that I still network with. And MOST, like 99% have moved on from card counting. The reason isn't because it can't be done anymore. The reason is because there are better opportunities with bigger advantages. Plus they get tired of the war we have to play.

So don't give me that shit I am doing something other APs can't. I am doing something other APs no longer want to do, because they have different and better opportunities. But I have always liked what I do, so I have continued to do it. And come up with new ways to be able to continue to be able to do it. There is nothing magical about it. Just some hard work and learning what you can and can't do and still be welcome to play. Pretty simple really.

[kewlJ]

And now he's a bonus-pluckin', sports-gamblin' whiz on top of his blackjack whiz-kid-edness.

And this is what Red's bug up his ass is REALLY all about. That I and some other advantage players, that would be players that find and do something at an advantage (for those of you that went to a public state school). And that advantage doesn't involve any kind of "sports gambling wizardry".

Since I began playing the bonus game, 18 months ago, I am hitting just a hair below 51%. It takes about 53% to be profitable from sports betting wizardry. My advantage comes strictly from the bonuses. And that will last until it doesn't. Then I will move to something else with an advantage or just continue with my primary activity, card counting.

So just stop with your nonsense.

That Red is so freaking insecure about sports betting, and gets infuriated that anyone else could possibly make a buck doing something in the sports betting arena, to the point that he has made a complete fool of himself, really tells all you need to know about this Hillbilly.

kewlJ is basically the Boy Who Cried Wolf of these AP forums. He has lied so many times that it's impossible to believe any stories he tells

Either that or I've been debunking bullshit gambling stories for 45 years and Kewl(s) stories are so inconsistent, self-contradicting, and egregious that I can't stand them anymore. Start a poll. Take a vote. One or the other.

There is something mentally wrong with these Kewlj(s). They keep spouting these detail-less, generic bullshit narratives, and they expect people to believe them? Todd should just ban their ass(es) on principle.

Oh, the horror!

How about debunking Billy Walters' claim of using computer derived power ratings to beat sports betting since 1982.

Mickey, I don't know how to put this to you gently, but you have zero idea what you're talking about.

Go look up something called GamePlan magazine and when they began publishing. I was using GamePlan's power ratings when I was 13 and kept notebooks comparing their ratings, which had to be adjusted every week by me for all teams, to the UPI selections, the AP selections, a local sportswriter's selections, and my selections. I advertised in GamePlan when I was 21 years old, a full-page ad which I designed and laid out, no less.

I still have one of those notebooks from when I was 13.

I think I probably have a few decades on you regarding the use and keeping of "power ratings." So I have no idea what you are blathering on about. I was criticized when I was 20 for relying too much on math and "power ratings." Now I'm criticized for relying too little on math and "power ratings." LOL. I'm doing the same stuff.

Do you know how idiotic it is, utilizing pure computer ratings, to try to lump a sport like college football, with disparate scheduling, weather, and a 12-game schedule, in with a sport like college basketball, with a huge interconnected scheduling matrix, no weather but different visual environments, and a 35-game "season?"

You are out of your depth when you address these things. I am being kind.

You do realize the "computer-derived" phrase you use means absolutely nothing. Go ahead, explain how "computer-derived" means something. Is it different from "hand-held calculator derived?" or "abacus-derived?" Or "Sheldon Cooper at a chalkboard-derived?" Do you mean "partially derived," "minimally derived," "completely derived" or what? Learn some precision, for God's sake.

Wake up, man. You must realize you have no blessed idea what you're really talking about.

I'm fascinated by the fact you've been a legit tout from the age of 21 onwards. Tell us more about that.. be interesting. There has to be lots there.

BTW - this Redietz vs Kewl is still my favorite of all. Nothing works better than you 2 going at it. Nothing.
