Although uncommon, there are still numbers of -EV gamblers who's long-term results do beat the odds, especially when the odds against them are miniscule (as in the vp games I've always played). The bell curve exists for a reason. And I'm not including the large profits I've made on the DU bug that you have trouble accepting simply because it's me--a critic of you--which truly IS "silly".

It's almost like you're thinking that if you were to accept even 50% of the claims, it would negatively affect your life somehow. So if you really don't care how much wealth others have or what other people make gambling, you would look beyond their criticisms of you when you're formulating your positions. After all, you have definitely earned all the backlash you've received from just about everybody, with all your phony stories & lies you've been caught in.

And you ought to pay more attention to all those accurate quotes mdawg keeps posting, with you being the recipient. Your response to those makes you look even more of a fool every time. Here he is taking little time to run a train over you, and you wreck hours and hours of your days with longass replies that say nothing new. No one reads your repeat whines.

One more hint in retrospective: way back when, as you were concocting your bj life story, why did you go with an "income" that makes you look like you also need to wait tables to survive?

AQ was right--you're a fascinating study, only it has nothing to do with gambling.
2 points Rob, then I have to settle in watching football as I have about 30 wagers going to today (volume betting). Very first line you say "I don't want to believe them". Don't you think that works both ways. Since I began on this forum, I explain the different thinks I do in more detail than anyone, and often how I do it, and why. And how the math works with everything I do. And yet there are about half this forum of KJ haters that refuse to believe it because they don't want to believe it... including YOU Rob.

Next, you EV comments. Bell curve hun? So now you are claiming you have won because you are on the extreme rare side of the bell curve, meaning you have just been lucky? That is the great Rob Singer play. Get lucky playing -EV? No I don't buy it Rob. Not in the long-run which includes the length of time (lifetime) you have gambled.

Look, it remains pretty simple. Gambling is math. Advantage play is math. The casinos win because every game offered is +EV for them off the top. For a player to win he needs to find or figure something that flips that and makes at least some of his play +EV. And there are all kinds of things that can do that. ANYTHING else is just gambling.

That is it for now. I am sure Red has written many goofy comments about me. Can't deal with that right now. Football Sunday.

ps: also I have made over 2 million dollars in my 22 year AP career. 100k , a year isn't "get rich money", but it is a decent wage, especially living in Las Vegas where cost of living is lower. I don't need to wait tables. That is more of your wishful thinking, because you don't want to admit that I have done well.
