The rest is taken from his liberal education on the Wizard's forum, as such:
1. Suddenly start a thread claiming you know a play that's astronomically lucrative.
2. Ask a few innocent questions about your "find" to sort of "legitimize it" while cajoling the cast of usual suspects into the conversation. This part is important, in that you can almost FEEL their envious, sweaty palms as well as their racing hearts.
3. Hope the Wizard joins in, thereby sealing the play as "authentic", and the OP as some sort of casino genius AP who will enjoy "hammering that play to death" while it lasts!
4. Throughout this process and in the future, you will forever be thought of as a big winner because of your story-telling and its accompanying slick presentation.
And this is exactly what that phony two-bit BS clown mickeycrimm has done across the internet gambling forums for years, if you're looking for a reference. His method of operation is first to create a haven of 110%+ plays on machines in the no-man's-land of Montana along with claims of winning six figures from them every year. Then he makes up stories from the past on how he drained Nevada casinos as an AP in order to solidify his standing as the "greatest slot pro ever!" among dreamers like RS__ and others who take their forum-posting queues from losers in life like Mickey. Of course, everyone keeps one important fact in the back of their minds when reading his crap: He's a binge-drinking, cigarette smoking alcoholic with rotted out teeth and a big fat gut. So how much different is he, really, from the typical AP? And one thing our friend Mickey never counted on is anyone bothering going to Montana to check out his lies. I did that and only because I was just passing thru. He lives in Moose Drool fantasyland.
