I wouldn't say that Rob Singer is the sole reason of me posting less or not at all. I was looking over his theories on YouTube with Alan and they are out there. I mean if you go through the first 10 you will see he says he won't hold 567 suited if he has an Ace High because he is going for big wins and makes 4 aces all the time from one ace but never makes straight flushes with 3 sequential cards. I dunno... I always give people grief over Royals and Straight Flushes because I seem to make them as much as the cycle says I will. I certainly know that holding something like 456 suited is always stronger versus a lone ace in most games. Oddly enough a few holds later he says he wants to hold something like JT98 suited over the made straight like JT987. He also says that something like QJT9 suited is better than holding KQJT9. This is some serious deviations. He tries to say they are very close but they aren't. He says something where he never holds an inside straight draw in any game but I played 10/7/5 DB for almost two decades and it is clear that the inside straight is almost always the correct hold.
Anyways that doesn't really matter. I mean this guy is the only person I know against every method an AP uses when it comes to strategy. If his method worked he would have a huge following like Dancer. Even though I don't really agree with Dancer on many things I am not going to go against him when it comes to VP Strategy.
Now Rob, says this basically only works on single line but it seems he is saying it works on every single line version of machine in all Casinos. If the meters really didn't matter the Casinos would still be offering full pay games all over the place like 20 years ago. I mean literally all the Casinos were offering full pay Deuces and Jokers... they even offered 10/6 Jacks at places. The Orleans had a Deuce Game over 101% at 50 cents for some time until they banished a bunch of APs. If Robs way was the way we would of heard and seen the changes by now.
I knew another guy with a similar background like Rob. He was a savant. He used to throw two pair away all the time in 16/10 deuces because he said he saw patterns and that holding two pair in a deuce game was just plain wrong no matter what the pay scale or strategy said. He was really huge on trying to find a pattern on Video Keno and never found it. I am not saying that machines are 100% random but they are random from the players perspective unless they can get into the RNG and see from the inside. Anyways this all really doesn't matter. He does and says what he does and says and that is fine. I am amazed at the members who are on his side. Either they just enjoy the wars or they really don't understand AP or gambling and they believe like the general public that it is impossible to beat the Casino.
Whatever the reasons it really doesn't matter. I came to these boards and was amazed that nobody wanted to talk about plays and mailers in a public forum. I kinda wanted to change that and show many plays that can help players that want help or want to learn or see what has been going on for a long time in Vegas. I shared almost everything I want to share. I even decided to take things a bit further and share many stories of my life history. I don't know the reason I guess I was just trying to show people that I'm a real person and not just some guy behind a computer trying to start wars or call people names.
I never was against the APs in what they do. I know they know how to get advantages and find leaks in the Casino and they understand how to make easy money. My dispute was how they wanted to paint themselves like honest gamblers who never do anything shady and despise anyone who does lie, cheat or steal.
So... yes a few people here enjoy my stories and advice and take from the advice want they want. I was never forcing my advice on anyone. I always said it is up to the individual to use the information and believe want they want. If it helps them that is fine if it doesn't that is ok too... just move along and show us something better. Not too many people really want to show us how to do it or how to do it better. I tried but it is clear the APs don't want me to talk about mailers and plays and the anti APs don't believe anything I say so I don't see much reason to keep posting very much.
I was going to find some mistakes or promotions in the Vegas area and when I found them I was going to share them publicly or if mailers changed or whatever. The problem is that nobody wants that information and since all the hostility I just figure why even try anymore. It is kinda like when you see someone playing bad or a bad version of Video Poker next to you and they ask you for advice and you tell them the advice and they say oh that can't be right... your wrong... I'm holding it this way anyways no matter what you say.
