I also gave an example of nickel VP player accumulating 5 mill in EV on a fluke play. Perhaps you can comment on that.
I can't comment on the nickel VP example because I am not really a VP or machine type AP. As you know my experience in this area was very limited, with the +EV coming from the disproportionate bonuses in monthly mailers, which has been on the decline. For this and other reason (partner passing and I wanting to focus more on blackjack), I am all but out of the machine play supplemental stuff I was doing.

But I will comment on your first example. Died after an extended losing period of a year? Come on...you are being absurd. Pick the most extreme example you can come up with while don't you. You really seem to be crossing over into Alan territory here. What is that about?
OK, lets say you have a low limit card counter(his EV is $2 an hour). He finds a casino in the middle of BFE. The casino if offering drawing tickets for certain hands on blackjack. The drawing is for a 5 million. The dude has 99% of the tickets, but he gets snapped off. What becomes of his 4.95 mill of accumulated EV? How in the hell will a $2 CC ever avrage out? He won't even get 500k of that accumulated EV, let alone the full amount. Someone allready got his EV.
He had a bad day just like KJ described in the $8800 loss day.
