Rob, if your claims are true (highly unlikely given your gambling tactics) then you haven't really done anything extroardinary. Careerwise, I've made more money in gambling than you claim you have.You guys are so confused about the long term vs. the short term....among other things.
First, the long term only means an individual's playing life, and of course it can be very different for many. That's why one person trying to apply it to someone else is ludicrous. The long term automatically applies to every casino and every game.
What's even more hilarious is when an AP tries to rationalize how playing a 99.99% game will make someone a loser in their version of the long-run....but if that person played a 100.01% game then they absolutely will be a winner in that same long run.
AP's come apart at the seams over what I've accomplished because they are not ones to use their heads beyond what the simple math says. They just cannot get that we as human beings are entirely capable--by using that incredible computer attached to our necks and not the ones from Apple or Dell etc.--of devising methods that create scenarios where certain expected or unexpected results can be prolonged or greatly reduced/eliminated from the standard.
I'm believing there has never been another vp player capable of doing what I have done, which is why there are and have been so many critical, angry, and jealous AP's out there. Naturally they're going to be frustrated when they hear of another's unprecedented success that goes beyond the limits of their intelligence levels.
But there are some very simple points that even their children could comprehend, that is, if any of them could even AFFORD children. Has any of you ever taken $52k to a VP game with the intent of winning less than 5% of your bankroll? Have any of you ever not been confused by the concept of going DOWN in denomination instead of the addict-loving UP after a cashout/pre-set win goal/soft profit is attained? Have any of you ever considered trading a sure or expected push or small winner for the carefully analyzed possibility of hitting a bigger winner, when that winner would allow you to hit a pre-set win goal, today and not over some silly amount of time?
Of course you people don't do any of this stuff because you prefer to think you're smarter than casinos with your "grind-it-out" waste of time nonsense. And then, when faced with the likes of me, all you can do is say "positive means win/negative means lose" while dissing (and never able to explain) the fact that if a method has a very high possibility of winning this session then it has the same possibility of winning every session. And you use the LOLN's as your excuse....even though none of you have ever studied it or know it's true, very complex computational definitions.
Wise up people. When any person is involved instead of a robot, there are no limits to what we can do over any particular amount of time.
