The WoV Thread

[MisterV]

On a side note it’s interesting to see there was no consequences for Tasha’s violation of the rule on importing drama from other forums.

Showing once again the Weak Wiz and his perverted mods do what they want when it comes to her and her retardation being used as an excuse again.

Small world, Boz...her internet lawyer / advocate / mouthpiece, the hound, jumped to her defense with a back door "objection," muddying the waters on her behalf. He wrote:

"In my case I was referring as well to the occasional posts you see in THIS and other WOV threads by banned member(s) that remain up until deleted. So this is not entirely a topic that concerns an outside forum. But I would agree - enough said for now, the mods are doing a good job scrubbing those posts as quickly as possible."

I believe he refers to the posts you put up, some of which contain content from VCT.

It was a smart play by the hound and bought her a break.

Boz, I appreciate you being a "fan" of "Mammie Tales" but it might be best not to repost my little screeds at WoV: they know where to find them at VCT (and I suspect some do), and reposting there only causes her to garner more sympathy and attention, which I suspect is her end game.

WoV is her protected area, a bucolic land of bunny rabbits, grazing sheep and unicycle riding unicorns where she is free to express idiocy, confusion and rehashed stories...unlike VCT, where "that dog won't hunt."

I don't know what will come of it in the end, but for now, give it some time, as he may be busy with other things. I have no clue why the Mods haven't said anything. They are prob waiting on Mike's approval to do anything.

Request honored, out of respect for the work you put into them and the enjoyment they provide me and others.

And we know Gordo loves reading them anonymously here. Like jacking off to paraplegics, it’s his guilty pleasure.

In his latest newsletter the Wiz went to Truth or Consequences, New Mexico where he says he may relocate to when he retires. He said his retirement is not far off.

Thanks for posting, I actually wish the Wiz well, both now and in retirement.

People give him a raft of shit sometimes but he has done a lot of good work on behalf of casino gamblers.

I didn't see him mention anything about casinos in town or nearby: an interesting omission?

[kewlJ]

Good for Mike. I also wish him well and happiness.

I am just curious as to what he is retiring from? It seems to me like he retired the day the Serbs cut him a check.

As for "a lot of good he did on behalf gamblers", I would also quibble with that. he did a lot of good. But allowing someone like Dawg to spew complete fantasy like he has, undid a lot of that in my opinion.

But whatever. a life pretty well lived.

[MDawg]

No one with any sense cottons to outed compulsively lying sociopaths, making comments on anything, at all.

So, 'git, like you said you would. The End.

[kewlJ]

Make me an offer.

Hell you bought Wizard off.

IIRC, one of the conditions when he sold WoV was that he stick around for X number of years.

Or the PNW, however, it's pricy there compared to Truth or Consequences.

You would pay upwards of double the price for a comparable house in places like Bellingham.

I remember Huck Seed accepting a six figure bet that he couldn’t spend one month in Des Moines, Iowa. He called back to Vegas in less than a week begging them to let him buy them out on the bet. They settled for five figures.

That’s how it goes with gamblers. To much watching the paint dry if there’s no gambling around.

I had to spend a week in Des Moines, Iowa once in the middle of winter & I would never take that bet.

I wasn’t even a gambler at the time.

Des Moines made Bakersfield & Fresno seem like paradise’s.

I’d even take Cleveland, Ohio over Des Moines.

Love the Wizzy’s “Cons”

“ • Lack of diversity in the population. The vast majority look like me in both age and race. Hardly anybody under the age of 30.”

Not sure if he still plans on working part time but this will certainly make it hard (in multiple ways) for him to find “models” for his instructional videos. After all it was impossible for him to film gambling videos without half dressed women.

Also no strip clubs in town but Raymond’s Lounge is rumored to have working girls occasionally which should fit the bill.

I’m missing something because most multi millionaires aren’t moving to a town to retire in the middle of nowhere with an average home price of $146,000.

Plenty of places with many more outdoor activities as he is looking for in the West. This sounds like the place they put people in Witness Protection as punishment.

Most multi millionaires aren't as "eccentric" as Mike. You and everyone else is missing something, doubt anyone including his wife ever has a clue what's going on in that big brain.

God created the illusions of thought, free will, and, profit, to keep the then-morons of the Earth tilling it for his true continual reincarnations. Ha.

Based on his posts, Wizard doesn’t spend much in a given month or year. Obviously not into luxury items. Most of his travel seems to involve not even a hotel room but more along the lines of a tent while on some backpacking trip. So he’s probably looking to just cash out the equity in his home and downsize.

He’s not like someone who spends $20,000 on a slow month. 30X that some months.

No one gives a fuck sand ape

Yeah, it's been a good decade, since the rather limited cult following of Shackleford. Everyone left because they found out, firsthand, that losing slowly amounts to the same as quickly, except for a lot more wasted time, and hope, along the way. The Wizard built a non-starter forum not on winning, but, on losing less.

Coupled with an extreme paranoia, which grew even worse, of personal insults in every word, and gesture, whether to whom. Such are the lives of scammers, who rely on reputation.

Anyway, I never shy away from telling how I was one of the very first to question, and, then, answer, the very premise of the forum, a few months after it launched. And, oh, how I was roundly rebuked for my troubles, all the way to the Gamblers Glen. But, yeah, along with the goofy, propped-up academics in other areas, all of them thought that they were going to get stinking rich, especially with a never-was actuary, let alone professional mathematician, at the helm, and, who sold out the rest of his useless soul to the casinos. Gamblers in general are as stupid. The saddest is the Wizard, who, just, can't see himself as the abandoned worn-out joke, of Vegas, that he has become.

But, back to the present for a moment. Aging persons, especially Shackleford, who lost his father early on to a heart attack, really should gravitate to areas with exceptional health care networks. The difference between being warehoused, versus, showcased, possibly for many years on the end. Obviously, it's been an even longer time, since the reported sale of the forum, supposedly, for millions, and, then, other personal debacles, and, so, very likely, he has no other choice than to "downsize". What another "cool" place that must be, for such a "cool" man-boy as the Wizard. Much more of the consequences than the truth. Ha.

The Wizard built a non-starter forum not on winning, but, on losing less.

ONLY if that is what you took from it. Wizards forum was about math and information that could enable a gambler to be a better gambler. From losing less all the way up to winning via advantage play. Depends on what each person took from it and put into it. And probably the most valuable part was it allowed someone to create relationships with other advantage players if they desired, that could range from networking to full blow playing partnerships.

The problem is that once Shackleford sold the forum, and who could blame him for doing so, but once he did, he just didn't give a shit about the very concept of what the forum was originally about....helping players be better gamblers through math and information. He just no longer cared.

And Mdawg really is the quintessential example and result of Shackleford just not caring. Mdawg represents everything opposite of what the forums original concept was. A guy telling bullshit stories that defy math and how things work. The pre-sale Shackleford would have never allowed it. And I think Mdawg posting his bullshit there more than offset all the good the forum did. But in the end it was Shacklefords forum (or he was left in charge) and Shackleford's reputation to do with what he wanted and that included flush down the toilet.

Why would anyone be so retarded as to post here when they could be out winning 80% of their baccarat tie bets?
