Big Casino Wins and Jackpots

[OneHitWonder]

It's a hard thing to explain. Why do I excel in the gambling world where others fail? There are multiple reasons. I think my exceptional math on the game is a prerequisite. I think my discipline in the game is exceptional. But the one main reason is I never intended to fail. It was going to work for me, period. No place left to go. I either succeed in gambling or I'm done in life. Another great reason is I was always willing to go wherever it took to succeed. There are not many like me. I'm the real true in the gambling world. Not the cheap imitation.

Wherever we are going from here we don't really know. That's the heart of a true professional gambler. A professional gambler that has no other investments in life. Just his ability to gamble for a profit. A true professional gambler goes on heart and heart alone. A true professional gambler who has lived any extent on this planet is a man that doesn't trust anyone but himself. That true individual, if he has any age on him, always has a stash somewhere.

The truth about us true professional gamblers is we don't give a rats ass what comes in the future. We are willing to deal with it on our own terms.

Fine baloney. Bring a bit of proof next time.

I'm thinking, "Don't argue with fools, no one will know who's who." And of absent arci.

Some fine "arguing" going on here. They're too "polite" over at the Wiz's to ask him.

More mickeymouse alcohol-induced rambling. Remember, this is the same guy who went bust claiming to be a Nevada "AP" in some distant past, where his phony stories originate from. The only truthful part of them is how he had to hitch hike around because he couldn't afford even a junker.

Nothing wrong Mickey with your having this fantasy about how you're the pro's pro and all that. It's just next time, please come up with a more believable story other than making six figures a year playing keno in Montana, yet you admit to not being able to buy a car, a home, or a dental plan.. Yes......you do have a habit of spilling your guts often as you fight it out with the bottom of all those bottles.

My question for the "pro": How many DUI's has that illustrious past produced, and how many jail cells have you seen?

Why should I teach anything to a person like you who just insults people like me. I don't care what you believe. You can keep on being ignorant as far as I'm concerned. Do you really think that I would show someone else my plays? That's a big no no, my friend. Show someone else your play and the next day you will walk in the door and can't get a seat-because the person you showed your play to will be in the seat, dumass. No, I would much prefer you keep on believing in gambling addict Rob Singer's very dangerous Martingale tactics. Bet more when you are losing. That will do the trick. Oh!!! And special plays? Why don't you just ignore everything but the royal cards. Just play the royal cards. Throw everything else away. I guarantee you will hit more royals. But I also guarantee you will lose your ass hitting all those royals. Special plays are for those who need special education.

Believe it or not, true AP's love having Rob Argentino around. It is so very nice to see that self absorbed dolt disseminating all that non-sensical disinformation to all the dum-dums. He keeps all the dum-dums on the negative plays, guaranteeing that we get the seats on the positive plays. Thanks, Rob.

PS. two percent ain't jackall. Ten percent is more my style.

[Rob.Singer]

High Alert! Many Gamblers Heading To Montana For Those 10% "Edges"! Hahahahaha!!!

[RS__]

I think the best part is Rob doesn't think 10% edges are even possible. Since he can't figure them out, he reverts to his "winning" martingale system [just like every other clueless gambler], and bashes anyone with real sense.

I love winning systems...is that why you only go up to $2 denom now a days? You'd think, with a winning system, one would be starting off at the $1 or $2 denom and growing up to the $25 and $100 denoms.

[Alan Mendelson]

I think the best part is Rob doesn't think 10% edges are even possible.

I also have a problem with 10% edges. Without revealing too much detail, can you at least break down the elements that add up to a 10% edge? Let me give you an example that isn't quite 10%:

Return on the game 99.96%
Free play bonus 1.00%
Comp bonus 0.25%

this doesn't give away your game -- but it will let us know how you are figuring your 10% edge. thanks

[RS__]

We've gone over this before. I say how the free play (bonus?) is really high and do your break-down, showing the %'s, then you, Rob, and your lackies, say "IMPOSSIBRU!!!" And we go nowhere.

Humor me and do it again, as I did in the example above.

game 98%
freeplay 17%
comp 0.1%

You're showing your frustration RS__, and I'm enjoying watching you coming unglued at the seams while you put on a display of someone who wants to be a real gambler but just hasn't figured out what people are saying. I suggest you read with better understanding.

A 10% edge because of free play is not only stretching the truth--it's as arbitrary as your desperate attempt at justifying it. I got $4500 in free play from the Palms. That has no more to do with any "edge" than do those stupid reel-'em-in online gambling site bonuses do. Wise up.

Your next statement not only shows your inexperience, it confirms that you only do selective reading here. If you pay attention you'd see where I hit several $50k winners and a $100k winner shortly after retiring from professional play. Schedule C was no longer an option, and while it was nice having those and other 5-figure winners, my tax return was a massive shock. Smart people adapt and adjust. So $2 is a good limit with few expected W2G's for someone who only plays once every 2-3 months anyway.

Did I say this yet? Wise up.

[RS__]

Rob, I'm not frustrated. Appreciate the concern though.

I don't gamble/play online. Well, I did once, but that's really it. Much better opportunities in brick & mortar casinos.

I don't do my own accounting and don't know what Form Schedule C is...but I'm almost certain you don't need to be a professional gambler to off-set your winnings (W2G's) with losses come tax time.

[Alan Mendelson]

RS___ if you think you are an advantage player and you are not using Schedule C you are making a very, very big mistake. ONLY if you put your gambling wins and losses on a Schedule C will you be able to come out ahead. If you use only a Schedule A to list gambling wins and offsetting losses you are either in big trouble OR you really aren't winning any money.

I'm afraid that by telling us "I don't do my own accounting and don't know what Form Schedule C is" you have revealed that the Emperor is not wearing any clothes.

But he has an accountant? Lol.

[RS__]

Like I said, Alan, I don't do my own accounting. I just send everything to my accountant and she does all the forms and stuff.

[OneHitWonder]

Just say, "I made a mistake. Thanks for correcting me." Works like a charm.

[Alan Mendelson]

Like I said, Alan, I don't do my own accounting. I just send everything to my accountant and she does all the forms and stuff.

And you sign it. If your accountant is not including a Schedule C for your PROFITABLE advantage play, you need a new accountant.

Do you understand the difference between reporting casino wins on a Schedule A vs. a Schedule C? And do you understand the value of offsetting losses on a Schedule C vs. a Schedule A? If you are able to find "advantage plays" then the Schedule C becomes your most valuable advantage play.

[RS__]

Yes, I sign all the forms she sends me. I don't take note of which forms I'm signing, though. But I know she off-set losses against my W2G's.

[Alan Mendelson]

But that's not enough especially if you claim to be an advantage player with profits. I think you should talk to your tax preparer -- especially if you have profits.

[Rob.Singer]

All he's doing is digging his hole deeper. Now we know why he wants to be anonymous.

What's funny is that all he says he does is "send her the paperwork" and somehow she doesn't laugh in his face for not directing her to file schedule C.

He's the same type of roving, phony story-teller as crimm. He just wrecked whatever credibility he has. He didn't even see the big red flag when he tried to pass off free play as "a 10% edge". Now he claims to be some big deal AP, yet he has no clue about filing tax returns and what deducting losses does to a schedule A. Here's a flash RS: with your fantastic amount of winnings, if you don't get hit with the AMT, your AGI will be so out of whack that you won't know how to write that big a check.

Happy to take credit for frustrating this clown into exposing himself. They all eventually fall.

I signed something years ago from someone who I thought I could just trust, but it turned into such an expensive mistake that I still suffer some consequences.

Happy to take credit for frustrating this clown into exposing himself. They all eventually fall.

I don't know about that, nobody knows it all; but, at least he might thank you for the help.
