You directed that at Rob. Actually, a lot of people care about what Rob thinks -- in fact, thousands of people have come to this forum and to my website to find out what Rob thinks and suggests for playing video poker.
Except when Rob gets derailed, (Rob you do get derailed a lot), he makes a lot of helpful contributions here and shares his knowledge and strategies. Kewlj it's unfortunate that the APs can't or won't share their knowledge. They make their claims but because they are APs and fear the wrath of the casinos will come down on them they don't share or contribute anything except their claims about mystery machines and mystery games and dealers who screw up. (There is an exception: mickey, and I commend him for pointing out the machines that give him an advantage.)
One of Rob's videos with me has been viewed more than 8,000 times. And the average has been viewed between 1,300 and 5,000 times. Those are unique views -- and YouTube does not count repeat views.
Rob's pages on my website have been viewed tens of thousands of times.
Except for the few APs here, I've never received a complaint about Rob's advice, though I admit not everyone agrees with it and I certainly don't follow it. But it is respected.
I've also been in casinos with Rob and Rob is respected. I saw him interact with casino managers who allowed us to shoot some videos in the casinos by the video poker machines in the high limit areas. Not everyone can pull that off.
Rob actually has a pretty good reputation... except with the APs. Go figure.
