Out the backdoor of the Budget, around the corner and into the casino center entrance to the Golden Nugget, and I was in action.

On the strip the great thing about Budget Suites behind the Stardust was there was no neighborhood. No one from the hood hanging out. More expensive, $230 a week but I liked the place.

A quote of the OP:

"But to the obvious -- the tech and techniques used at the poker tables are obviously accretional. They could have been (and were) developed and used as individual techniques and strategies. The fact that they landed en masse at this particular set of games likely demonstrates (1) they have been used individually for eons at various games around the country and (2) they just happened to all land at this particular game because this kind of manipulation is mature, as in "has been done forever in part in various games." But these folks decided to slap it all together in a Super Adaptoid format (Marvel comics readers get that reference) because...why not be greedy and micro-manage everything? To argue that these techniques haven't been used separately for a long, long time is silly.

Meanwhile, the kewlJs of the world have existed in LV for decades and know nothing about any of this except as it pertains to blackjack, which speaks to either (A) they ain't what they say they are or (B) they are dumb as rocks and more blind than Ms. Keller or (C) both."

Of course, this is all hindsight by ditz. He chides us for not knowing, but what the fuck did he know about it? Nothing.

Years ago KJ seen some funny shit from one of those shufflers and wrote about it extensively here. Sure, he's a blackjack player, but what simp wouldn't know that if BJ could be cheated by these machines then poker could easily be cheated too. I took note of it but was never around it.

Ditz admits in this thread he wasn't talented enough to make it as a year around gambler. Just 100 days a year in Las Vegas leaves 265 days a year in Johnson City greeting folks at Walmart.

Ditz' "friend" Munchkin is a multi accounter. Munchkin has interviewed dozens of the most notable gamblers in the world. For some reason ditz puts himself high on Munchkin's list. ROTFLMAO I don't think so. Ditz still refuses to admit he turned Munchkin down for an interview. And at this point in time its glaringly apparent that ditz never intended to ever do an interview of any kind. To chickenshit. He's just been talking shit the whole time.

I'll do an interview with anyone at any time.

Other than that, mickey, you're spot on. As usual.

If you want to interview me in Las Vegas, I'll give you some air miles and fly you down for it. James Dennison, who has some film directing credits, can film it. I'll ask Munchkin to sit in on it, if you like.

I can't be more hospitable than that. I'll even buy you dinner once or twice.

Shoot me an email at integritysports@aol.com, and we can pin down some dates.
