First, his love of 9/6 JoB. That's a loser's game with no doubt, because it's mainly in casinos to get players to do exactly what he is doing: play for the points. You cannot and will not win on it unless you hit multiple royals. In vp, varience is the name of the game, and if you want to stop complaining about losing you cannot be afraid of it.

Next, he uses the ultra-meaningless AP word "playable". Everything is "playable". You just have to know what you're doing and have a plan--other than to get to some glorified slot club status, that is. Dan, you can either continue to keep putting your son's college education into the poker machines, or choose a better way.

Then there's the concern about this "gap" whereby there may not be that special Seven Stars "status" for a few months if play doesn't occur. While that may cause some people ulcers, I see it as +EV....as a few months of not worrying, not complaining about being shorted or dissed, and a break to take a step back and look at the overall situation. A calm river causes reflection.
I am only concerned about the "gap" because it would then cost me money to stay at CET properties while re-earning Seven Stars.

Oh, and I might miss out on being able to get the best upgrades on my cruise for that year. Last year, I found a "free upgrades" promotion running on Norwegian during the first week of April. I used that to upgrade my oceanview Seven Stars room to a balcony (very big upgrade for Alaska), and it was free to do so. They did not run that promotion again before I ended up cruising, and I would have missed it if I wasn't Seven Stars on April 1 (the first day you are able to start booking upcoming cruises with the Seven Stars benefit).

I just got back from that cruise on August 12, and it was very nice.

You are criticizing 9/6 JoB. Why? How is it a "loser's game", unless you're comparing it to the few remaining 100%+ VP machines around town? And I doubt that's what you're comparing, because I see your reports of playing awful machines like 7-5 bonus.

I have stopped engaging your silly arguments that you can somehow defy mathematics and regularly beat poor-paying machines, but I still laugh at your nonsense when you tell people "just learn to win" and other BS revolving around your system which defies all logic.
